ASUS ProArt Display PA278CV Review

We tested the 27 inch ASUS ProArt Display PA278CV, which replaces the ASUS ProArt Display PA278QV and is the only size available for this particular model. That said, there are a number of closely related models in the ProArt series, including a 24 inch 1080p and a 27 inch 4k model, as well as more professionally-oriented models. You can see the differences between some of them below.
