ASUS ProArt PA246Q 24" IPS LCD Monitor Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

This video is Linus Tech Tips’ unboxing and first look at the ASUS ProArt PA246Q 24-inch IPS LCD monitor. Linus opens the box with a lighthearted, self-deprecating humor about the size and bulk of professional monitors, and then guides viewers through the included accessories, stand, and base, highlighting how the stand feels smooth and the range of motion is impressive. He points out the color calibration report that accompanies the unit, emphasizing that this is a professionally calibrated display, which helps justify the ProArt label and its higher price. The unboxing then shifts to a hands-on examination of the monitor’s build quality, inputs, and physical characteristics, including the height-adjustable stand, swivel, tilt, and portrait mode capability. Linus explains the connection options, noting DisplayPort, VGA, DVI, HDMI, USB hub, and a seven-in-one card reader, and comments on the matte IPS panel’s viewing angles and color accuracy. He compares IPS to other LCD technologies and stresses the 1920x1200 16x10 aspect ratio as superior for productivity work, offering more vertical space for desktop tasks. The segment closes with a run-through of the on-screen menu, color modes, picture-in-picture capabilities, and a quick-fit overlay that helps users gauge real-world sizes, then he concludes with an upbeat assessment of the viewing angles and overall quality. By the end, Linus reinforces that the ProArt PA246Q is aimed at professionals who need accurate color and robust ergonomics, and he encourages viewers to subscribe for more unboxings and reviews.
