Great stuff man! Helped me decide to get this particular monitor! So far so good. I am loving the colors.
Glad you found the right monitor for you! cheers!
Fantastic, detailed overview of this monitor! Thank you very much for the clear, concise, and very informative presentation.
Glad it was helpful!
Glad to hear you’re enjoying the monitor. Just purchased one tonight! Looking forward to using it.
That’s awesome! Lemme know how it goes. Cheers! :)
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH received the monitor last night. So far, I’m in love. The ability to twist to portrait mode is a game changer for my digital art!
That’s awesome! Glad you like it!
Thanks for the review man!
Thanks for watching :)
Thank you Sir for this VERY HELPFUL review, THE best I found...! Will buy this amazing monitor
thanks for the great review Sir Nicco will for this one to have better accuracy in post processing
Beautiful review of my next purchase, thank you for talking sense...cheers matey
Thanks for appreciating! Cheers!
I've been using the ASUS ProArt PA248Q 24-inch monitor for my image editing for years. I calibrate it with my i1Studio spectrophotometer and my printed images match my screen. I couldn't ask for anything more. An excellent monitor that doesn't put a big dent in your wallet. I'll buy another ASUS ProArt if my current one ever dies.
Over a year now and I have the same sentiments! Glad you are loving yours!
this was such a helpful review, thanks so much :)
glad you like it! :)
The ASUS ProArt brand is one of my options for an external monitor. However, I opted for the 27 inch monitor from another brand. That 24 inch monitor seems huge though. This is a nice review. Hoping for this one to gain more views.
Thank you! Stay safe! :)
Nicco!!! thanks for your review! you helped me to decide to buy it!
glad to be of help! :)
Nice review! Bought it just now. :)
I have a question, I"m currently using dual setup of HP Elite Display E243i. But I'm not so satisfied as they have tint shift issue. Means the color a bit shifted from blue to yellow from left to right or vice versa. So I would love to know if this ProArt has a similar issue like this. You can take document in Photoshop filled with white and go full screen to check that out. Could you please do that? Thanks in advance.
absolutely amazing review. maraming salamat po kuya!!
Thank you!
Planning to buy this one on May 30th. Excited to have this one!!!!
Enjoy!
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH hi sir! What brightness level you would recommend for us?
Hey there,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Asus ProArt PA248QV monitor. It's great to see your enthusiasm for this piece of tech, especially for photographers, videographers, and content creators.
You've provided a lot of valuable information about the monitor's specifications and features, which is super helpful. However, I have a couple of questions:
1. You mentioned that the monitor is budget-friendly. Could you please specify the price range or any deals currently available for it?
2. You highlighted the monitor's color accuracy, which is crucial for professionals. Can you share any personal experiences or specific projects where this monitor's color accuracy made a noticeable difference in your work?
Your detailed insights will be much appreciated and could help others who are considering this monitor for their creative work. Keep up the great content!
Great video Nicco! I got question, is it a concern of resolution for graphic designer since this is just a 1920x1080 resolution and not a 2k monitor. Thanks
Totally depends on how much resolution you require. I can’t answer that from the perspective of a graphic designer though. However as a photographer considering this is relatively small at 24inches, the pixel density to resolution ratio is just about right
Been looking for a good monitor for editing photos and video. I’m using a late 2018 Mac book Pro .
Great review! One question though: what happens when you watch 16:9 video on the monitor which is 16:10? Does the extra space at the top and the bottom get cropped or does the original 16:9 video get stretched vertically? Also, do you have a choice in that matter? Thanks in advance!
yes, but noadays there are vertical formatted videos due to popularity of the format from phone use like Tik Tok videos.
Thanks for this video review. It helped my buy this monitor way easier. Question, what is a good price to buy a ASUS ProART PA328Q at nowadays? Just curious because I need a second monitor (main).
Hey Walter! Prices vary greatly by location. Best to check your local computer peripherals dealer and double check with amazon prices.
I have limited space on my desk. What are the horizontal width and vertical height on this monitor?
Of all the different connections to your computer, which one is the best?
Good review 👍 You say it's calibrated from the factory but have you ever calibrated it yourself? I have a Spyder using DisplayCal for calibrating. Been looking long and hard for a quality affordable monitor for photo editing and I think this will be the one!
Hi Calvin! I think I also said in the video that while it's factory calibrated, the best practice is to still calibrate it to the lighting conditions of your workspace. The pre-calibration is basically a good default starting point but its still best to fine tune with your spyder.
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH Thanks Nicco!
Nice review :) What is the difference between this and PA24AC model that is also beginning of this video? If they are both pre-calibrated and same resolution, what makes PA24AC a more expensive choice than this one? Thanks in advance!
The pa24ac utilizes a usb c connection to connect to your computer. It's an easier connection for laptops that use only usb c connections (like the MacBooks)
If you want to use the USB slots on the monitor, do you have to as well connect computer with monitor via USB?
BTW: very good review, well made, very informative and extemely helpful!
hi! yes there is an included cable for the hub similar to the usb cables we use on printers. hdmi doesnt carry that kind of data so it's a separate port and cable for it. thank you for watching!
Hi! Great video 😋 I’m planning to buy the 2k version but after watching your review I decided to take the standard one. Will you happen to compare it to an ipad pro or iphone? Are they similar in color? I’m also gonna use it for digital illustration you think it’s really good?
Ipads and iphones have varying delta e ratings depending on generation. Those devices generally change color (and brightness) depending on what the front sensors detect and hence the colors can be variable. Also important to note that this is an IPS display and smartphones and tablets such as those use OLED screens
Thank you. Have you tried screen sharing in MS Team or Zoom, does the text clear? Im planning to use it as dual monitor for office work.
Yes definitely
Nice!!!! Perfect sized monitor!
Thanks for watching!
Great vid! how do you get the white to be accurate? I have the exact same monitor, but my white is a bit yellow i notice. Thanks
remember the actual accuracy of color rendition is greatly affected by the light in the area where you use the monitor. that's why even if these monitors are precalibrated, they have to be calibrated to the specific lighting environment of your location. that is done with a calibration device such as a Datacolor Spyder or Xrite
Thanks for this review, been wanting to get this monitor, just want to ask where did you bought it here in the Philippines? Thank you!
Hi Jed! The ProArt monitors are available through Asus concept stores and Villman. Best to call the branch you have in mind to check. They're also available through the Asus official Lazada store!
Thanks for this! What cable/s does the monitor come with? Does it have an HDMI to USB-C cable?
Hi! Sorry for the late reply. It comes with the power supply cable, an hmdi-hmdi cable, a d-sub, and a USB-B (the ones we see on printers) to Usb A cable for the hub. No C yo HDMI, unfortunately but those are available online.
This depends on the market. On APAC unit, it came with USB upstream cable (for the on screen USB), HDMI-HDMI cable, DP-DP cable and a power cord. No USB-C to HDMI/DP.
I have this and the 27 inch 2k version. The 27 inch gives a better picture. The colors on this seem off and white seems grey.
Does this have a picture by picture mode?
Hi, does it automatically change inputs?
Hello. I'm looking into getting that. I video edit off of an external ssd and I'm wondering if those usb ports on the back would possibly be fast enough to plug that into
Yes unless any of your devices are beyond USB 3.0
Hi Thanks for the review, is it DEX compatible, I noticed you had a phone on your desk can you plug it into the monitor and then plug a mouse and keyboard in and have desktop computer made from a phone.
Hi! Thanks for watching!
I believe that function is actually dependent on the device that will be giving the display information. I use an ROG phone so it does work with that but ultimately it depends on what device you use.
How does the monitor do with gaming?
Hey! First of all, this video is too good to watch. I like the way you talk easily about monitor content. I work with graphic design, specifically branding / visual identities. My PA248QV arrived home today (04/06/2021_brazilian haha). Which ProArt preset should I work on? sRGB or Rec.709? I will work simultaneously consulting the Pantone's Color Finder to make the correct conversions for RGB and CMYK. I believe that the most suitable way for this demand is sRGB. Do you agree? If you can share some of your experience with me, it will help me a lot about which preset I should work on! Congratulations for the video, the best i´ve seen about the PA248QV.
Hey Guilherme! Thanks for your kind words! I dont have much experience in graphic design but I do think that in this case, sRGB mode suites that better. The ProArt palette also adjusts brightness to the level wherein it can show you the best colors that it can't entirely do in a brighter setting. Both the sRGB and Rec 709 modes adjust to the optimized setting in terms of accuracy.
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH thanks, Nicco! It helped a lot 🙏🏼
Opa, tranquilo? tbm trabalho com design grafico e ando buscando um novo monitor, achei bem interessante esse ProArt dado suas caracteristicas mas infelizmente eu não encontro ele aqui :\ como fez pra adquirir um? Importou?
@@Zir0uWhiteBR Opa! Eu comprei o meu no site da Kabum há cerca de 01 mês. Uma semana atrás eu entrei no site da Kabum e eles voltaram a ter algumas unidades em estoque à venda, mas já esgotaram. Realmente esse monitor foi um achado pelo valor. Se você for de São Paulo, talvez acabe encontrando na Sta Ifigênia ou fazer uma procura bem forte nos principais e-commerce pra ver se algumas unidades não voltaram pro estoque. Recomendo, um belo monitor dado seu custo benefício!
@@guilhermerodrigues7991 Eu havia visto na kabum mas só o modelo 4k, os outros estavam indisponiveis e eu imaginei que pela baixa demanda se comparada aos outros tipos de monitores "gamers" não teria reposição tão cedo, mas fico esperançoso sabendo que faz tão pouco tempo que tu adquiriu :D Vou ficar de olho por lá pq me parece que eles são os únicos que vendem e como sou de uma cidade pequena no RS só pela kabum msm, agr é ter paciencia e sorte
Hello nice review, Does it automatically adjust to portrait mode when you tilt the monitor?
Thanks! Nope you have to set it via display settings
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH this is 8 bit, right Sir? I am a hobbyist photographer. Do I really need a higher color display like 10 bit? Getting confused with all the specs out there. Tia
Great stuff! Qucik question, is it vesa compatible? Thanks in advance.
Hey miles! Yes it is. :)
Mas maganda ba to sa Macbook air M1 display san mas accurate? Same lng ba yan sa 1440P or 4K ung color accurate ung pro art din nila? San mas better if mag Calibrate ng Spyder X Elite?
Hi Nicco. I can't tell, is this a glossy screen or matte or somewhere inbetween?
Hi Jacob! it's matte
Hi I am having a dillema between this and ViewSonic VP2458 24", which one can you recommend?
Hey there. I have no experience with Viewsonic so I really cant tell but this is undoubtedly worth it
What desiscion did you make and why?
Hi Nicco. Does it support HDR? I can't find the information anywhere.
Just HDR 10 rating, very minimal.
How much does it cost?
idol nice review, balak ko kasi bumili ng same monitor, ask lng po if yun pede ilagay yun usb receiver(dongle) ng keyboard+mouse sa usb slot ng monitor? gagana po ba ? yun laptop slot ko kasi puno lagi, salamat po
Yes pwede. Pero may isang usb cable na kakabit sa laptop mo for the dongle
I have read certain reviews that the screen shows a black bar on the sides and top of the screen and the image does not necessarily cover the screen from side to side. How true is this?
They probably have the wrong settings on it.
You said it has an audio in and headphone jack. Can I attach a pair for computer speakers to it? The audio in is confusing shouldn't it be an audio out?
Yes you can
I'm looking to get this monitor but I have some concerns. Does this monitor need to be calibrated after a while? (like other non proart asus monitors)
As far as I know, all monitors have to be calibrated at least every 3 months. That’s why a calibration tool is a must-have for creatives with color critical work
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH Ok so what's the advantage of this monitor over a similar monitor (spec wise) that I can calibrate to sRGB/REC709 100%?
@@_thewatcher27 its the color accuracy, still. Any monitor can be calibrated but the level of the best performance in accuracy can be lower in other monitors. Calibration makes sure that the dots are displaying the color closest to what you should perceive, but if the 'dots' are ultimately incapable of displaying the exact color, the accuracy is limited. The PA248QV has a Delta E rating of
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH ok thanks for the info!
Hi, can this monitor be used only with usb to preview the photos? I mean without connecting to the computer
Via Hdmi straight to the camera, yes. But not via USB
the new CV is 1080 not 1200, I don't know why
Has anyone noticed really bad backlight bleed with this monitor?
Keep vlogging god bless
Thank you!
great review sir... question lang.. 16:10 sya instead of usual 16:9, hindi ba nag stretch yung view if ever?
No sir. If you use the max resolution, hindi. Kasi it's also 1920x1200 (not the usual 1920x1080) and that follows the 16:10 ratio, not 16:9
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH thank you sir... the search is over na.. hehe ill get one. thank you and more power to your channel.
thanks sir! enjoy your new monitor! :)
Hi
Is it good to used as a main monitor for mb pro 16” ?
totally! :)
A question to which I have not yet found an answer: what is the energy efficiency? Thanks in advance
www.energystar.gov/productfinder/product/certified-displays/details/2354479
Hello, sir. Maybe you could tell me which monitor is better between the ProArt PA247CV and the PA248QV. Which one would be the best pick?
PA247CV is 1920x1080 which is a standard 16:9 ratio. But this one ASUS ProArt PA248Qv is 1900x1200 which is 16:10 monitor and it's not and standard ration.
But for video editing / content creation 16:10 ration is what professionals prefers
@@t7.swapnil good to know! now on the 27 do you know the differences? the CV is USB-C and have daisy chain but the Picture quality is the same on both?
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz should be working the same . Because these are professional models. It should be supporting these basic needs for artists as these are not that cheap.
@@t7.swapnil thank you, I'll buy the QV, is the available model in my country, the CV is sold out.
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz QV is better for professionals. CV is not. Go for QV even if CV is available
Thank you for the review. Binili ko na siya kanina.
Tanong ko lang po, kinalibrate niyo na po ba ang display?
nice! of you have a calibration tool, best parin to fine tube the calibration specifically dun sa area and lighting condition kung saan mo sya gagamitin.
Is this out of the box 75hz or need to change it in the display settings??? Please let me know
75 out the box
Any thoughts on text readability?
Shouldnt be an issue.
do you need to calibrate it again or u just use it right away for daily basis? bcs i heard at similar price dell has budget with 99 acuracy too but it nne to calibrate again because it bad
Hi! yes, just like any other monitor it has to be calibrated to the lighting conditions of the area where you will be using it. calibration makes sure that the color output adjusts to the lights surrounding your workspace thereby making sure that you percieve the right colors correctly.
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH i mean so it has to be calibrated with that spyder thing or something tool to calibrate it? Or you mean calibrate it manually without any tool?
I just ordered this monitor for my 3d rendering works
@@juliojackalz yes with spyder or xrite. I use Spyder Pro X
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH whew sadly i dont have it 😕 is it good enough from factory?
@@juliojackalz it is. Just be sure to be doing your color-specific work in a neutral lighting condition. I use mine in an area with a white LED lighting, the difference post-calibration was very minimal.
Just got my PA248QV the other day and i'm not happy about it. Yellowish yung screen. I can't find anyone who does monitor calibration in my area and unfortunately I cannot afford to buy a calibrator as of the moment. Ano po masusuggest niyo na ibang solution? Para siyang naka-on yung blue light filter mode kahit hindi naman. Should I return it na lang?
Can you send me a message on instagram so I can help you figure out the problem?
if you edit on a colour accurate monitor, what difference will it make if your audience doesn't have monitors that are colour accurate? is there still a point in buying a monitor like this?
Let me explain it. I'm a professional photo editor with over a decade of experience. In a professional field, you will mostly meet with people who use MacBooks. And the MacBook supports 100% sRGB and 100% P3 color profiles. In my experience, if you don't have that level of color grading monitor, then you will see things differently than your client sees on their computer. If you use a Windows computer, though. If you use MacBook, having a great monitor is more important. Otherwise, you will look the same color in two different ways on your MacBook display and on your external monitor. Thank you!
Anyone have this monitor have any flicker issues? Only in photoshop when I click within a photo, or say click and drag a brush it flickers. I cannot find any solutions switching from HDMI cable to Mac display port to hdmi.
I havent had this problem but usually flickering like that can be due to your machine taking a bit of time rendering the image on the display. There could be other reasons though
@@NiccoValenzuelaPH thanks. it would only happen on 1 image, but not well into editing 1hr +. I turned off using my graphics processor, restarted PS, and turned on the gp and seems to be fine again.
@@BrandonLaskowski does this monitor require a tough pc then? i mean im buying it anyway i just hope theres no issues w it :(
@@4am446 I’m bad at the technicals of a machine. Running a decent MacBook 2016 that’s upgraded as much as possible. Could maybe have a better graphics card but that was def the issue, and good once reset. But also photoshop is only time it’s happened so running a decent size program and big file.
Saying 1920x1200 is perfect for a 24" is wrong and flat out bad advice. This is especially true for media professionals that this monitor is targeted for. The real reason for this is PRICE and BUDGET. Otherwise you would be claiming that higher end higher res monitors offer no added value. Consider for example researching Apple's Retina display standard and how to they take into account Angular Pixel Density to calculate ideal resolutions in a given distance and screen size. Im not saying this is a bad monitor, its actually excellent. All I'm saying is that as a reviewer, don't oversell it.
I am so happy with my BenQ monitor supporting 100% Adobe RGB and hardware calibration… (100% sRGB is not the widest color profile and it is not enough when you work professionally with image printing and graphic design).
There are ProArt options that have the same capacity. This technically an entry level ProArt. Still a huge leap in terms of color accuracy compared to common consumer monitors
sRGB for works like visual identities/branding is enough
My laptop is acer. Can I connect it to this monitor?
Of course!
Which profile are you using? Because its different brightness in standard, srgb,rec709.
I use standard with a brightness level that's determined by my Spyder
Despite the borders it seems BenQ BL2420PT24 is still a better option in terms of price range and tec specs. It has a higher PPI (123 compared to 93) and a screen size of 2560 x 1440 instead of 1920 x 1200.
I've just bought a Asus PA248QV and the image shows a greenish cast. And the Asus technical assistance in Brazil won't even take it in for a proper evaluation. They say the greenish cast in the photos I've sent is normal and the don't consider it a problem with the monitor. Asus never more! What a disappointment!
That's a huge display, though. Maliit lang siya tingnan sa photos ni lazada at shopee.
THANKS I GET 2 SCREENS.....
play @1.25x
thank me later
If you are a professional, you should be able to find 3 more inches in your place for a 27" monitor at the very least.
welcome I'm from Iraq, I'm very happy for the preview you gave me creator I want to ask you about this screen because I own it What are the appropriate settings to obtain realistic colors and close to the final results.
