ASUS Design Thinking
The ZenScreen Smart MS27UC‘s 150mm stand and incredibly narrow bezel allow users to make the most of their desktop space. The ASUS ‘A’ emblem, which represents leadership, served as the inspiration for the stand’s exquisite design. A neat and clutter-free workstation is guaranteed by a cable management hole in the center of the stand. Premium two-tone acoustic knitted fabric and professional-grade speaker material are used to cover the ZenScreen Smart MS27UC‘s speakers.
They work in tandem with the monitor’s Lightning Silver matte finish to produce a multi-layered, elaborate, and cozy look. Adjusting the monitor settings is made simple by an OSD joystick located on the underside of the bezel. Additionally, the thin keyboard and mouse set or remote control can be stored in a storage compartment at the back of the monitor.
