Subtle & Elegant Design
ASUS Designo MX Series displays sport ultra-slim profiles — with the MX279H measuring just 17.5mm at its thinnest point– thereby minimizing desk space requirements. In addition, the MX Series presents an edge-to-edge frameless screen with bezel thickness of just 0.8mm. This subtle but elegant design is further accentuated by a sundial-inspired stand which provides a sturdy base for the monitor. Outshining the competition, MX Series has already garnered accolades at the 2012 Good Design Awards and won a Best of CES 2013 award.
Vivid, Lifelike Visuals
The MX279H monitor feature a 16:9 aspect ratio, LED-backlit AH-IPS A+ panel with a 178° wide-view angle that minimizes color shift on both horizontal and vertical planes for high-quality visuals from almost any direction. AH-IPS is the latest in IPS technology – delivering improved color accuracy plus increased energy efficiency.
Premium Audio Quality
Engineered with SonicMaster sound and a Bang & Olufsen ICEpower MobileSound 3 amplifier, the MX Series features up to 32mm diameter speakers for greater and smoother sound impact with better bass performance. It also offers a resonance chamber of up to 100cc, expanding monitor sound range to new extremes. A built-in amplifier powers speaker sound reproduction, just like a car engine with more horsepower powers a car for better performance. MX279H uses up to 5-watt amplifiers per channel, with speakers embedding large rare earth magnets to generate more powerful and striking sound.
