London, England (15 April 2013)ASUS today announced the PA249Q ProArt Series LCD Monitor, a professional 24-inch display that is factory pre-calibrated for uncompromised color precision, straight from the box. The PA249Q ProArt Series LCD Monitor has a native 1920 x 1200 resolution with 16:10 aspect ratio and features AH-IPS (Advanced High-Performance In-Plane Switching) display technology for a bright and vibrant image with 178-degree wide viewing angles. The PA249Q also features ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio, and ASUS QuickFit Virtual Scale and Splendid™ Video Intelligence technologies for enhanced image quality.



Factory pre-calibrated for unmatched color accuracy

The ASUS PA249Q ProArt Series LCD Monitor is pre-calibrated at the factory for unmatched color accuracy (&#8710;E<3) and features independent six-axis color control with outstanding color space reproduction — 99% Adobe Wide Gamut RGB, 100% sRGB and 120% NTSC. In addition, the PA249Q supports 10-bit ‘deep color’ for more natural transitions between different hues. The PA249Q also features a brightness rated at 350cd/m˛ and an 80,000,000:1 ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio for enhanced image contrast.

Next-generation AH-IPS display technology

The ASUS PA249Q ProArt Series LCD Monitor is LED backlit and features AH-IPS (Advanced HighPerformance In-Plane Switching) display technology for reduced energy consumption, superior color accuracy and increased backlight transmission for an overall brighter image.

A host of exclusive features allow professional users to get the best results. Exclusive ASUS QuickFit Virtual Scale displays on-screen guidelines for an actual-size preview of images prior to printing, while ASUS Splendid™ Video Intelligence technology automatically adjusts display settings to give the best visual quality for the kind of image being displayed.

ASUS QuickFit Virtual Scale and Splendid™ Video Intelligence, along with other monitor options, are accessed via a user-friendly five-way control on the monitor. The PA249Q also features two user-2 of 5 customizable shortcuts for frequently used monitor controls, removing the need to navigate the full onscreen menu system for functions such as brightness control.



Comprehensive video inputs with picture-in-picture support

The PA249Q ProArt Series LCD Monitor has DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI-D and D-Sub ports, and can display content from two video inputs at the same time. Picture-in-picture mode displays content from a second input in a window in one corner of the screen, while picture-by-picture mode splits the screen down the middle to display content from two separate sources side-by-side.

The PA249Q also features a four-port USB 3.0 hub for convenient pass-through connectivity at speeds up to 10 times that of USB 2.0 with compatible devices. The monitor is mounted on a versatile stand with full tilt, swivel, pivot and height adjustment.
