EIZO, the renowned Japanese company, has unveiled its latest business monitor, the FlexScan EV2740X. This 4K offering, equipped with an IPS Black panel, boasts an impressive contrast ratio of 2000:1, marking a significant addition to the manufacturer’s FlexScan series.
The EIZO FlexScan EV2740X display packs a punch with its 4K resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels), 60 Hz refresh rate, 8-bit color depth, and a swift 5 ms response time (gray to gray). With a typical brightness rating of 350 cd/m² and extensive sRGB color space coverage, it caters to demanding office tasks. Notably, it features two internal 2-watt speakers and incorporates Auto EcoView, a feature that dynamically adjusts screen brightness for optimal viewing.
EIZO has left no room for scarcity in terms of connectivity, furnishing the monitor with two HDMI inputs, a DisplayPort, a high-speed USB hub (5 Gbit/s), an RJ-45 socket (1 Gbit/s), and a convenient headphone output. Remarkably, it can charge notebooks with up to 94 watts via USB-C, and it supports video signal transmission through the DisplayPort alternate mode, effectively transforming it into a comprehensive USB-C docking station.
For those familiar with EIZO and the FlexScan series, ergonomics remain uncompromised. The new model offers rotation, tilt, height adjustment, pivot, VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm), blue light filtering, and flicker-free backlighting for an ergonomic and comfortable user experience.
True to EIZO’s reputation for quality, the FlexScan EV2740X comes with an impressive five-year warranty, likely inclusive of an on-site replacement service. In the rare event of bright pixel errors occurring within the first six months of purchase, you have the right to file a complaint. The monitor maintains a typical power consumption of 16 watts and is available in both black and white color variants.
