27-Inch WQHD IPS Display

The PA278QV features a 27-inch IPS panel with a 2560 × 1440 WQHD resolution.

The higher QHD resolution provides more workspace and greater image detail than Full HD, making it suitable for detailed design work, photo editing, video timelines and multitasking.

With 109 PPI pixel density, text, graphics and fine visual elements remain sharp and well defined.

The 16:9 aspect ratio makes the monitor suitable for professional applications, multimedia, web browsing and standard video content.

100% sRGB & 100% Rec.709 Colour Coverage

The ProArt PA278QV is designed around professional colour standards and supports:

• 100% sRGB
• 100% Rec.709

This makes the monitor suitable for workflows involving photography, web design, digital content and video production.

Accurate colour-space coverage helps creators maintain a more consistent visual reference when editing and reviewing content.

ΔE <2 Colour Accuracy

The monitor provides ΔE <2 colour accuracy, helping deliver precise colour reproduction.

Low Delta E values indicate smaller differences between displayed and reference colours, which is important in professional creative work.

The PA278QV is therefore suitable for evaluating:

• Photography
• Skin tones
• Branding colours
• Product images
• Video footage
• Digital artwork
• Web graphics
