WHAT EACH CHOICE ASKS OF YOU

What it brings and what to check

ASUS ProArt Display PA279CRV

What it brings

ASUS lists 100% sRGB, 99% Adobe RGB and 99% DCI-P3 with 10-bit colour, ΔE < 2, Calman Verified and a colour pre-calibration report, plus presets that include DICOM and Rec.2020.
Manufacturer source
USB-C carries video and up to 96 W of laptop charging, alongside two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4 input plus a DisplayPort MST output for daisy chaining, PIP/PBP and a USB hub with USB-C and USB-A ports.
Manufacturer source Manufacturer source Manufacturer source
The 3840 × 2160 panel works out at 163 ppi, which ASUS says is four times the pixel density of similarly sized Full HD displays; the stand gives 130 mm of height travel, ±30° swivel and ±90° pivot.
Manufacturer source Manufacturer source

What to check

Refresh tops out at 60 Hz, with a 48–60 Hz vertical input range and a 5 ms GtG response rating.
Manufacturer source
HDR tops out at VESA DisplayHDR 400: ASUS declares a 400 cd/m² HDR peak and 1000:1 typical contrast for the LED-backlit IPS panel.
Manufacturer source
Daisy chaining needs an MST-capable source and Power Saving at Normal Level, and the input is fixed rather than auto-detected while the DisplayPort output cable is connected.
Manufacturer source

BenQ PD2725U

What it brings

One Thunderbolt 3 cable can carry video, data and up to 65 W of charging, and a second Thunderbolt 3 output can daisy-chain another display; BenQ says daisy chaining does not work on Apple M1 and M2 Macs, only on Pro, Max and Ultra chips.
Manufacturer source Manufacturer source
BenQ declares 100% sRGB and Rec.709 and 95% P3 coverage with a factory calibration report, Pantone validation and a 1.07-billion-colour panel.
Manufacturer source
The stand offers 150 mm of height travel, 30° swivel each way and a 90° pivot, and a KVM switch and PIP/PBP are listed.
Manufacturer source

What to check

Refresh is limited to 60 Hz, so it is aimed at colour work rather than fast gaming.
Manufacturer source
Thunderbolt charging is rated at up to 65 W, and the two HDMI inputs are version 2.0.
Manufacturer source
It needs about 273 mm of desk depth with the stand, and BenQ does not state whether its 8.3 kg net weight includes the stand.
