ASUS ProArt × Mac

Every colour, exactly as you made it.

ProArt monitors are calibrated at the factory, Calman Verified and cover the same P3 colour as your MacBook's screen. Plug in one USB-C cable and your Mac gets a bigger canvas that tells the truth.

The colour your Mac already speaks

MacBook screens show the P3 colour range. ProArt covers 98 to 99% of DCI-P3, so the reds and greens you see on your laptop look the same on the big screen.

Text as sharp as your MacBook

The 27-inch 5K PA27JCV has 218 pixels per inch, the same as Apple's own 5K display. macOS draws everything at exactly double, so type stays crisp.

One cable to your desk

USB-C carries the picture, runs the monitor's USB ports and charges your MacBook at up to 96W. No adapters, no power brick on the desk.

Delta E, the measure of colour error

Can you see the difference?

Delta E (ΔE) measures how far a colour on screen is from what it should be. Below 2, most people can't tell the two apart, even side by side. Every ProArt here is calibrated to ΔE < 2 before it leaves the factory. The PA27UCX-K goes further, to ΔE < 1.

Colour gamut, CIE 1931

More colour than a standard monitor shows.

The horseshoe is every colour the eye can see. Each triangle is the slice a screen can show. Most office monitors stop at sRGB. ProArt reaches DCI-P3, the range video is graded in and your Mac displays, and the 5K and Mini LED models also cover most of Adobe RGB for print work.

DCI-P3: 97 to 99% coverage across the ProArt range

Pixel density, at the same 27 inches

218 pixels per inch is what macOS was drawn for.

macOS looks its best at exactly double resolution. On a 27-inch screen that means 5K. A 27-inch 4K screen has 163 pixels per inch, so macOS has to scale and text looks a little softer. The PA27JCV is 5K, so it matches your MacBook's sharpness.

USB-C

One cable. Picture, ports and power.

Close the lid, plug in, and your MacBook becomes a desktop. The monitor's USB hub runs your keyboard, mouse and drives, and the same cable charges the laptop.

Questions

Before you plug in.

Not sure which one suits your Mac? WhatsApp us with your Mac model and what you work on.

Will a ProArt work with my Mac?

Yes. Any Mac with USB-C or Thunderbolt connects with one cable. A Mac mini or Mac Studio can also use HDMI or DisplayPort. There are no drivers to install.

Will it charge my MacBook?

The PA27JCV and PA329CRV give up to 96W and the PA348CGV up to 90W. That keeps any MacBook Air or 14-inch MacBook Pro charged. A 16-inch MacBook Pro still charges, just more slowly than on its own adapter.

How many monitors can my Mac run?

It depends on the chip. A MacBook Air with M1 or M2 runs one external screen. Pro and Max chips run two or more. Send us your model and we'll tell you.

Do I need to calibrate it myself?

No. Each ProArt is calibrated at the factory. Choose a colour mode from the menu, such as sRGB, DCI-P3 or Rec. 709, and start working. The PA27UCX-K also supports hardware calibration with your own calibrator.

Which one is best for photo editing?

The PA27JCV. It is 5K for Retina-sharp detail and covers 95% of Adobe RGB, so prints match what you see on screen.
