The Acer Predator XB271HU offers the best of both worlds for hardcore gamers and graphic designers. Here’s why; vivid colour accuracy from the IPS panel, a high refresh rate that can be overclocked up to 165Hz and Nvidia G-Sync for minimising screen tearing.
Not to mention, its flicker-less technology helps to reduce eye strain, which is particularly useful for those who work or play for long hours. The monitor is also adjustable where you can tilt or move them up and down.
Sometimes you don’t have to spend a fortune on a professional 1080p monitor. Take Dell U2417H, for instance. It boasts a 99% sRGB IPS panel, which is particularly essential for accurate colour renditions. You can even adjust the monitor to get better viewing angles up to 178° regardless of vertical or horizontal position.
A spacious 27-inch IPS LED display, a rich colour gamut of 99% Adobe RGB, a crisp 2560 x 1440 resolution, and a shade hood that helps minimise glare and reflections…what more can you ask for? If you are a graphic designer who often uses Photoshop, you might want to put this one on your checklist.
Colour plays an important part in graphic design and photography. This is where the Dell UltraSharp UP2716D delivers. It boasts an excellent colour depth and accuracy, thanks to Dell’s PremierColour technology that provides 100% Adobe RGB and sRGB. The monitor is adjustable and also comes with plenty of extensive connectivity like USB 3.0 and HDMI port.
It’s ultrawide, alright. Here’s a whopping 34-inch monitor that gives you ample space to display more of your work like toolbars, images and text files across the screen without cramping against each other. It also features a huge 21:9 deep-curved display, making it both aesthetically stunning and even helps to reduce unwanted glare if you sit nearby a window.
Other highlights include a vivid 3440 x 1440 resolution, extensive colour support of up to 16.7 million colours and finally, a flicker-free technology to reduce potential headaches and eye fatigue caused by prolonged computer use.
Winners of 2017 Reddot Design Award and IF Design Awards, this 24” LED-backlit LCD monitor comes with the convenience of a touchscreen display. This gives you a more intuitive experience where you can easily tap, slide and swipe files or images with your fingers. Besides, a touchscreen display can be doubled as a visual presentation.
You can also expect good colour accuracy, thanks to its high-quality IPS panel while the ultra-thin bezel allows you to see more clearly and work better without distraction.
One of the Asus ProArt PA329Q’s major selling points is the excellent colour accuracy that offers an astonishing 100% sRGB reproduction.
