With a maximum brightness of 500cd/m2 and HDR400-equivalent display performance, it is said to clearly render images with significant contrast differences.
A key highlight for business applications is its support for 24/7 continuous operation. This makes it easy to maintain constant display in 24-hour stores and facilities. Furthermore, its four-sided uniform bezel design makes it ideal for multi-monitor setups where multiple units are arranged side-by-side. Input terminals include HDMI 2.0 x 2, DisplayPort 1.4 x 1, and VGA x 1, allowing connection to existing PCs, STBs, Blu-ray disc players, and home gaming consoles. It also supports PBP (Picture-by-Picture) and PIP (Picture-in-Picture), enabling simultaneous dual-screen display or sub-screen display.
Regarding installation, it supports 400 x 400mm VESA mounting and includes a wall-mount bracket, eliminating the need to purchase additional hardware for wall installation. A remote control is also included, allowing for convenient volume adjustment and input switching. It features built-in 10W x 2 speakers. The dimensions are approximately 1246mm (W) x 78mm (D) x 715mm (H), and it weighs approximately 15kg.
The direct sales price for the 3-year warranty model is ¥109,980, while the 5-year warranty model is ¥120,980. This large 4K monitor, primarily for signage and designed for permanent operation, is likely to be a strong option for corporations and store operators seeking such a solution.
