RE: ASUS PB278Q 27-inch WQHD Monitor Review

Don't forget, Dorkstar, that the monitor which is the subject of this review has a resolution of 2560 x 1440, so the situation is not quite as dire as you paint it. But the question I posed above remains - if Japan Display can produce and market a 7-inch tablet screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600, surely we should be able to see a 27" monitor with a resolution of, say, 4096 x 2560 that doesn't cost half a year's wages ?...

Dorkstar, here in Sweden high-resolution monitor prices did drop significantly a couple of years ago, but since then they've held steady. I was, however, encouraged to see that the price of the 27" ASUS monitor described here is lower than that of, say, the older Samsung 27" monitors with similar specs ; thus I'm hopeful that even in the monitor field we shall see increasing performance and sinking prices. On the other hand, the fact that desktops seem to have gone out of fashion - despite the fact that, or perhaps just because old fuddie-duddies like myself prefer them - means that competition in the monitor market doesn't seem to be particularly sharp. Still, hope springs eternal - I'd love to see an affordable 27" monitor with a 4096 x 2560 resolution before I depart for a better (or as the case may be, worse) world....

I may be buying one of these, if I can just find a good deal on a graphics card that would allow me to run it at full resolution. But I agree with Kidbest100 and others (including, not least, Linus Torvalds) : what's keeping manufacturers from launching reasonably priced 27" monitors in the 4k range ? If Japan Display can produce and market a 7-inch tablet screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600, surely we should be able to see a 27" monitor with a resolution of, say, 4096 x 2560 that doesn't cost half a year's wages ?...

RE: Acer Introduces S1 LCD Monitor Line: Sleek And Slender

I am still waiting for larger displays at lower prices!

Since I use a Wacom, that is the only one that I am concerned with about accurate color representations! As long as the other displays are relatively close that's OK! I have found if a monitor has HD compatibility and a high refresh rate, it wont be a problem.

That 23" should be more in the 200 range. If they want that price I will wait for a 32":P
