The XG27AQ, which is an older version of the one I posted, outscores this ProArt monitor for content creation on rtings. 8.2 to 7.8.

Reading both reviews it's hard to see the advantage of the ProArt, other than marketing.

Pretty sure I paid over $400 for mine when it first came out. Have hooked up to my Mac mini and use it mainly for photo editing. Love the color accuracy on these

They're not geared towards the same people. This is for graphic designers, photographers, videographers and digital artist. Your recommended monitor is gaming oriented.

Got dual 24" of these and they are fine productivity and photo editing monitors for the money if that is what you are looking for. Jump on the closeout deals if you can/need IMO.

Quote from Luigis3rdcousin :
1200p yes 👍 Right now there's a lot of talk about HDR but the problem with it there's no universal HDR standard. And it depends if your recording HDR which standard it is your working with, so I've elected to never touch HDR and I pretend it doesn't exist lol. Because when your doing color correction, every HDR standard looks different. And that's assuming your monitor is calibrated for that specific HDR. So to me HDR is a gimmick and it's nice to have access to a rec.709 monitor
Yea 1200p 16:10 was the perfect height match to 27" 16:9. Good stuff.
16:9 on anything smaller than this is stupid.

Considering anyone who does content creation never exceeds 60hz for anything it's not needed. I have a 1080p 24" version of this monitor and it's fantastic to have a rec709 color graded monitor for video editing, it's horrible trying to do color correction on typical gaming monitors because the colors don't look right.

Its also a 16:10 aspect ratio which is amazing for having more height for working on timelines, something every 16:9 gaming monitor doesn't have.
Question - why do creators worry so much about color when 99% of all media is consumed on crappy or uncalibrated screens? Like, good for the creator, but if the audience never experiences it, who cares.

Cell phone and tablet displays are crazy good these days, its the exact opposite really. I am still thinking about getting this because of the price but it is an 8bit display. I was reading threads from video color graders and editors who were on the topic of 10 bit vs 8 bit cameras, they said 8 bit in 2024 is just way behind, specifically because of how good even social media videos on modern cell phones are.
