Viewsonic VP2772 vs ASUS MG24UQ

There are 2 DisplayPort inputs and 1 DisplayPort output so you can show simultaneously on multiple daisy-chained displays.

Viewsonic VP2772 has excellent image quality. It is designed to have professional-level imaging with 10-bit panel, 12-bit color engine and a 14-bit LUT.

Allows using the monitor both in vertical and horizontal positions.

You can adjust the height by 150mm, tilt from -5° to 23° and rotation by 120°.

The base stand is stable and can be raised by 135mm.

VP2772 has HDMI, DVI, Thunderbolt, 4 USB 3.0 ports and DisplayPort v1.2 for daisy-chaining a second monitor.

You can easily adjust the height of the monitor, and you can also rotate it and switch between landscape and portrait mode.

The MG24UQ features an anti-glare panel, which significantly reduces or eliminates reflections, loss of clarity due to light, fingerprints and smudges.

ASUS has handled the on-screen display (OSD) of the MG24UQ very well in a clear and easy to navigate interface. You can choose from a different number of presets on the fly, and all attributes such as brightness, contrast and refresh rate are adjustable. The blue light filter can also be adjusted in intensity. You can also create your own presets for easy switching between settings.

The viewing angles of the MG24UQ are excellent; no color shifting (distortion of colors) occurs when looking at the display from a horizontal or vertical angle.

The design of the MG24UQ is quite sturdy and the base of the monitor contains seven large rubber pads to prevent accidental sliding of the display. The panel itself slides into the base via a metal insert, but VESA wall-mounting options are available as well. In terms of design, the base provides an easy way to route cables out of sight and all connections are clearly labeled.

Thanks to the IPS panel ASUS has used in its MG24UQ, color reproduction is excellent. This monitor can display the full 100% sRGB color range -good for graphical editing. Without calibration, the MG24UQ is able to reach 78% of the AdobeRGB coverage. For comparison: an average monitor reaches about 76% of the AdobeRGB color spectrum. After calibration however, over 79% of the spectrum can be achieved and the average color accuracy delta E can also be reduced significantly from a little over 2 to 1.06 which results in an even better color reproduction. Anything less than 1 deltaE is imperceptible to the human eye. As a result, color accuracy is near perfect in practice.

sRGB is the color spectrum that is most commonly used on cameras and prints, and is also used for most images on the web. AdobeRGB however offers a wider color spectrum and as a result, more vibrant and lifelike colors.

The MG24UQ uses a 4K-display with a resolution of 2160 x 3840 pixels, which is four times the amount of pixels of a Full HD display. This results in an extremely sharp image. The fact that the MG24UQ is relatively small further increases pixel density and thus sharpness. In terms of pixels per inch (ppi), the MG24UQ measures at 183 ppi. For comparison: a Full HD monitor of the same size would only reach half of that - 91 pixels per inch.
