ASUS PROART PA32UCX, THE 4H HDR MONITOR WITH MINI LED REVIEW

In recent years Asus has accustomed us to continuous innovations in the field of PC monitors. Obviously we are referring to the consumer segment, in the professional field there are monitors with incredible specifications but also very expensive. That's why this ProArt PA32UCX manages to stand out from the crowd , offering features superior to those of any monitor we have tried so far, all at a high price, around 3000 €, but aligned with direct competitors in the sector, if not lower.

In fact, ProArt is the Asus brand created to meet the needs of creators, a demanding user who needs perfectly calibrated monitors to work at their best. It should therefore not be surprising the choice of LCD technology instead of OLED technology, which remains the most used in the sector. To push performance to the maximum, a normal Full LED backlight was not enough, which is why Asus has focused on Mini LEDs , currently the most advanced technology in this area and which works perfectly on this product.

Design

The peculiarity of the ProArt PA32UCX can already be understood from the bundle, which includes an XRite i1 DisplayPro probe . As we will see, the panel is already excellently calibrated but if you want to get even closer to the reference values a further calibration is necessary, even if totally optional. Together with this we find all the cables necessary for installation and a monitor hood, to avoid reflections during use.

The PA32UCX is designed for professionals, it does well in any context but its target requires a certain sobriety. Forget the lines seen in ROG monitors, in this case it is minimalism that takes over. Seen from the front you can see the wide support base, which also guarantees excellent mobility to the panel, adjustable in different directions (even vertically), and the frames, thin enough. Moving to the side you immediately understand that you are not in front of a common LCD monitor, the thickness is in fact almost 6 cm. The use of Mini LEDs requires space, which explains the reason for the above-average thickness.

On the back, the metal pedestal is clearly visible, elegant and with a particular design, complete with a cable grommet for better organization of the spaces. All inputs are located in the lower part where there are 4 USB 3.0, 1 DisplayPort 1.2, 3 HDMI 2.0 and finally Thunderbolt input and output.

Also on the back, on the right side, there are four buttons for navigating the menus, convenient thanks to the small analog stick, which facilitates use. The build quality is good, with the use of metal and plastics of decent quality, but not exceptional, probably to keep costs down.

A concentrate of technology

The ProArt PA32UCX has a 32-inch diagonal in 16: 9 and a 4K resolution, with a maximum refresh rate of 60 Hz. The panel is 10-bit AHVA-IPS with Quantum Dot technology , essential to achieve adequate coverage. of the different color spaces available. Speaking of color space, there are all the standards most used by professionals: we find sRGB (100%), Adobe RGB (99.5%), DCI-P3 (99%), Rec. 709 (100%) and also Rec. 2020 (89%). This versatility in the management of color spaces is important, under this front it is difficult to find better. Full compatibility is offered with the most important formats, such as HDR10, HLG and even Dolby Vision, the first time we see it in a screen for the consumer market.

Incredible peak brightness, which can reach 600 nits in SDR and 1200 nits with active HDR . This is possible thanks to the Mini LEDs installed inside and to the 1152 zones that can be managed individually by Local Dimming, which also allow for an exceptional level of contrast.

No calibration needed

The high cost of the ProArt PA32UCX is not only justified by its technical specifications, but also by a practically perfect calibration performed directly in the factory. You can proceed with a further calibration that would improve the result, but it is only recommended for the most demanding professionals. The discrepancy of the reference values is minimal, so much so that the calibration, performed with DisplayCal in the first instance and HCFR for the verification of the results obtained, is very simple, it only takes a few steps to get even closer to the reference values.

With the REC.709 color space we reached a color dE of only 0.3, while the grayscale values have an average dE of 0.5. Also impressive is the coverage of the Rec. 2020 color space, which we had never observed in a monitor before, which comes very close to the 89% declared Asus. Put simply, the ProArt PA32UCX offers performance suitable for professional use already out-of-the-box , which can be further improved thanks to the calibration probe included in the sales package.

It goes without saying that in practice this translates into a simply exceptional rendering of all types of content, especially from high quality sources, such as an Ultra HD Blu Ray, with which to also take advantage of the compatibility with the Dolby Vision standard, unique in the PC panorama. Even in gaming, the yield is excellent, the only limit is the refresh rate of 60 Hz, but remember that the ProArt is not designed for this use.

Despite this, the contrast offered by the Mini LED backlight and the absence of the typical defects of LCD panels, such as backlight bleeding, makes the vision superior to that offered by a common PC monitor. Instead, we observed the presence of a slight blooming effect, barely noticeable if you look at the monitor from the front and more accentuated by looking at it from the side, but nothing that can ruin the excellent work done by Asus.

TP-LINK ARCHER MR600 REVIEW: A GREAT 4G + AND WI-FI ROUTER

Image
" The Italian connections are not the best ". We have all been repeating this for a long time now and we know well how many areas of Italy still navigate through the now obsolete 7 Mega ADSL, or even worse. Over the years, the most disparate solutions have been sought to solve the coverage problems of the most remote areas, but a stable solution has hardly  techsupportreviews    been found. However, a recent TIM report shows that 99% of the Italian population lives in an area covered by the LTE network(4G and 4G Plus). Despite the clear problems in terms of latency, which do not allow some operations such as gaming to be carried out in the best possible way, the cellular network is a consolidated reality in our country and in many areas it can guarantee much higher speeds than the traditional cable connection. In short, in some cases a router with support for 4G + SIM cards becomes indispensable. For this reason, TP-Link has created Archer MR600, currently sold on Amazo...
