Asus is shaking issues up with its displays, not solely by specializing in excessive refresh charges and good response occasions but additionally by introducing an revolutionary characteristic that goals to enhance indoor air high quality – and it might be one thing that different displays ought to copy.
As highlighted by Notebookcheck, Asus has launched three new displays underneath the VU collection: the VU249HFI-W (24-inch), VU279HFI-W (27-inch), and the VU34WCIP-W (34-inch WQHD ultrawide), all of which preserve a 100Hz refresh price and 1ms MPRT response time – however these aren’t simply any extraordinary displays – they reap the benefits of Asus’ new built-in air ionizer design.

The specs of those new displays might not be the very best when in comparison with different high-end shows from Asus, nevertheless it’s nonetheless adequate to cater to productiveness, gaming, and video content material makes use of. It’s additionally a great way for Asus to check its new expertise on a monitor with out all of the bells and whistles (at a low value), with hopes that it turns into a newfound success that conjures up different producers to comply with go well with.
Now, simply use this expertise on gaming displays, and I will be completely satisfied
It is perhaps simple to dismiss Asus’ efforts right here as merely a gimmick, particularly when you’re extra enthusiastic about enhancements when it comes to show high quality – however I might argue it is a nice innovation.
