ASUS ProArt Display PA247CV 23.8 inch Monitor – IPS, Full HD (1920 x 1080), 100% sRGB, 100% Rec. 709, Color Accuracy ΔE < 2, Calman Verified, USB-C, Compatible With Laptop & Mac Monitor,BLACK

With the blue light filter and high color accuracy, these have been the best Asus monitors I have used so far. On some of the less expensive Asus monitors, I have noticed dead pixels and maybe a weird stand configuration. These are not issues that I have dealt with on these monitors. Currently I personally use four of this model of Asus monitor. The two in the picture have been in use every day for the past two years. No flickering, no issues.If you are trying to charge a laptop, and also get video from the usb c connection, that is apparently possible (depending on the device), but you will need to do a software update on the monitor first. You will need a clear usb drive for the software update. I would not plan on using power and video through a single cable though, especially for a laptop. Maybe you can use your iPad like that, but there can be issues with laptops. Plan to use a separate power cable, and second video only cable. This should not be a deal breaker, as there are so many docking station options that you probably should be using. Do not expect a monitor to act as a docking station as well.These monitors do have smaller speakers integrated into the frame. You can only send video with audio over hdmi, so do not expect to connect a DP or usb c cable up and get audio over video. Expect to install other speakers if you are using this as your main desktop though. The integrated speakers are more for OS sounds or to listen to someone talking. Music will not be full sounding, with the flat monitor speakers only of course.The 75 mhz screen refresh rate is correct, and works for me through both hdmi as well as dp video connections. Certainly a good value when you compare other monitors in this price range. For the same price you can get a non color accurate HP monitor. Or a Chinese made Samsung with a bunch of dead pixels. Or a reliable, but basic Dell monitor. I chose this monitor, again four times.Depending on the monitor size, you may receive different types of stands. The stand for the 24” version allows you to flip the monitor sideways without disassembling anything. The stands also hold the monitors securely, and do not move around while you are typing. Surprisingly I never thought the stand would be an issue until using some other Samsung monitors.These are VESA mount compatible. When you take the stand off, the mounting holes are underneath. Very clean monitor mounting as well. No extra weird part of the stand is poking out or anything. Like on some other HP and Samsung monitors.Games look super clear. But these monitors are really designed for the designer using illustrator or photoshop. Someone who needs color accuracy for correct print designing. Normal things, like the windows desktop, look beautiful though. So yes you can play games and it will look very clean.If you are debating going up to the 27” or 32” size, you will probably only need one monitor at either of those sizes. The 24” size is perfect for most normal desks with a two monitor setup. A single 27” could work in place of two 24” monitors, like at the desk setting in my pictures.I would not recommend the 32” unless you are using it in a conference room or sitting back from your screen a considerable distance, like minimum six feet.I have set up thousands of computer workstations throughout the mega office buildings around Northern Virginia and DC (this is not an exaggeration). This information has come from that experience in dealing with these workstation setups, and the issues created when moving all these items around.Make sure you are able to take your monitors out of the box and thoroughly test the screen before final install, within the return window time. This way you are not finding strange artifacts or scratches on your screen, from a rough delivery, after going through the trouble of removing the old monitors and installing the new ones. I have not run into monitors ruined from the delivery process often. But if you do, you will be glad you are in the return window still.

This ASUS monitor has been perfect as my second screen for my home office. The picture quality is impressive for the price point - colors pop nicely, videos look crisp, and it even handles gaming without issues. Really convenient having built-in speakers for those times I don't want to use headphones.The 23.8" size is perfect for a secondary display and it mounted easily on my monitor arm. Works perfectly with both my PC and Mac setups. If you need a reliable second monitor with good color accuracy and versatile connectivity, this is a great choice!

I hate setting up new electronics gear as a rule. Primarily because after I turned 65 my eyesight acuity and my dexterity are going downhill..not to mention a few other things.....but that for another day. Nevertheless, this monitor was very easy to set up and get operational in under an hour. Some young whipper-snapper could probably do it in half the time..one of life's cruel realities.The ease of repositioning the screen is a big plus. However I chose this monitor for its compatibility and interface with Apple products. The interface between this monitor and my 2022 MacBook Pro was instantaneous and seamless via Thunderbolt. It delivers both audio and video from the one connection. HDMI is another option also available. The color adjustments were simple enough to make. This screen is perfect for editing and music creation using Logic Pro. Also the 24" screen is just large enough for my visual needs but compact enough not to take up all the space on my desk. It also has a USB hub built into the unit which is handy if you need to hook up an audio interface,an external hard drive, or a drum pad for beats. Plus they provide a quality USB-C cable and (2) HDMI connector cables. But best of all is the price. After shelling out the cash it took for an Apple MacBook Pro with the new M1 Pro chip design .....I wanted a good monitor that would pair up well but wouldn't break the bank. This monitor delivered that plus a whole lot more for the money I spent. And...I call that a bargain...the best I ever had.

Pairing with the Macbook is wildly easy: just the USB-C chord. It also charges the computer! I bought this as a work monitor. I'm not in a creative industry, but it's important for me to see fine print that's sometimes in color. The resolution is not perfectly sharp for things like macbook applications and the edge of browser windows, but photos, website, and videos are very sharp. I think this is a Mac problem more than a monitor problem. Even then, I haven't noticed it since the first day of use.tl;dr: From a non-creative professional, this monitor does the job and does it well.
