Concept to Creation
Precision to the Finest Detail
Envision bigger with 2560 x 1440 WQHD, packing four times the pixel density of 720p! New
premium 16:9 wide-format PB278QR LED displays with 178° wide viewing angle panel for better
productivity, opening extra multitasking space to fit more windows and projects on-screen. ASUS
exclusive Splendid Video Intelligence Technology, QuickFit Virtual Scale, and 100% sRGB fidelity
ensure reality-defining color and image accuracy, giving you true what you imagine is what you create
power. HDMI, DisplayPort, and dual-link DVI support WQHD natively, accentuated by room-dominating
audio via twin 3W speakers. To help you stay naturally focused, ergonomic design includes tilt, swivel,
pivot, and height adjustment, plus streamlined cabling that keeps clutter off your desktop.
True-to-life Visuals
See Better and Wider
The PB278QR WQHD monitor provides 109 pixels per inch (PPI), resulting in high quality
2560 x 1440 visuals equaling four times the resolution of standard 720p sets. It allows users to
view greater image detail and do more with an onscreen footprint larger than that of standard displays.
The screens 109PPI density means there are 109 RGB matrices within one inch. Generally,
the more pixels a display has, the more lighting (or power) those pixels require to achieve the best
visuals. However, with advanced LED backlighting on the PB278QR, power and energy savings
are no longer compromised, while better visuals are assured.
Made for Work and Play
The ASUS PB278QR provides an ultra-wide 178° viewing angle on both horizontal and vertical planes,
thereby minimizing onscreen color shift even when viewed from extreme angles. With its WQHD display,
you enjoy 77% more desktop space than a full HD screen to spread out your windows and palettes. It is
also about 25% sharper than a generic 27 full HD display, delivering ultra-smooth visuals thanks to 5ms
(GTG) response time. This ensures you get lag-free experiences in movies and gaming, with the latter
looking more vivid, with all in-game details shown in true color. The ASUS PB278QR is undoubtedly your
best choice for work and play.
Extensive Connectivity
Native WQHD Content Support
The PB278QR features a host of connectivity options that include HDMI, DisplayPort, and dual-link
DVI for native WQHD, plus D-sub for full HD 1080p content transmission. The HDMI port also supports
MHL which allows you to use the MHL with HDMI connection to view content from your mobile device on
the PB278QR while simultaneously charging the mobile device. Twin built-in 3W speakers provide quality
audio for a completely immersive home theater experience.
*Better yet, ASUS bundles all cables in the box: DisplayPort, HDMI,
dual-link DVI, and D-sub are all there!
*While the PB278QR supports up to 2560 x 1440 WQHD resolutions including DVI-dual link,
HDMI and DisplayPort, some graphics cards only support up to 1920 x 1200 resolution
content transmission via HDMI. Please check with your local distributor or retailer on the
hardware limitations of your laptop or desktop.
