What is an IPS Panel? IPS (in-plane switching) technology is the highest performance panel technology available in the LCD displays. The specifications and details of IPS panel technology are considered best for high accuracy in color, contrast and wide viewing angles. IPS panels offer excellent picture reproduction and suitable for photography, graphics design, movie production, CAD/CAM engineering, medical and security applications. Below illustration represents how an image on your screen will look even at extreme viewing angles of up to 178°. With IPS panels, you will not have any color shifts or changes in the contrast ratio when you move the image across the screen or change your viewing angle.

At 178° angle
True life-like colors Since IPS panels support real life colors, they are perfect for graphics/movie designers, photographers and medical imaging operators. For example, when you take a picture of your family on a field trip, the blue of the sky, the green of the grass will look exactly the same on your screen and on your prints, assuming your camera and your printer support true RGB colors as well.

118% NTSC color gamut – more color tones than your eyes can see Color gamut refers to the various levels of colors that can potentially be displayed by a device. There are different standards that defines color gamut: sRGB, AdobeRGB and NTSC. To quantify the various color gamuts in terms of their relative range of color of narrowest to widest would be: sRGB < AdobeRGB < NTSC.
What is NTSC color gamut? NTSC is the color space developed for the widest range of colors that can be represented to the human eye. Most real world devices to date do not have the ability to actually reach this level of color in a display.
Monitors are generally rated on their color by the percentage of colors out of a color gamut that are possible. Thus, a monitor that is rated at 100% NTSC can display all of the colors within the NTSC color gamut. A screen with a 50% NTSC color gamut can only represent half of those colors. The average computer monitor will display around 70 to 75% of the NTSC color gamut, shown with the green triangle on the chart. This is fine for most people as they are used to the color they have seen over the years from television and video sources. (72% of NTSC is roughly equivalent to 100% of the sRGB color gamut.)
Those that are looking to use a display for graphical work for either a hobby or profession will probably want something that has a greater range of color. This is where high color or wide gamut displays come into play. In order for a display to be listed as a wide gamut, it generally needs to produce at least a 92% NTSC color gamut. In VP2655wb’s case, this value is set at a super high 118% NTSC level! This means that VP2655wb can show more colors than your eyes can see. 118% NTSC color gamut is represented with the black triangle on the chart.

Efficiency and comfort Ergonomics is defined as profession of designing tools and work environments to best accommodate human performance and behavior. The VP2655wb is one of the great examples of an ergonomically designed tool. Based on your height, chair and desk conditions, you can adjust it up and down for 5.3 inches, swivel it 120°, or tilt it 20° degrees, whatever makes you more comfortable.
Also, when designing a portrait mode image or a document (like a flyer or a magazine page), you can rotate the monitor 90° and utilize your 26" (25.5" Vis) screen size at its full extent. You can also adjust your graphics card settings so that all your graphics are rotated 90° as well.

VESA mount and multi-monitor setup Designing a professional grade monitor is not easy. We need to understand the needs of our professional users as well as their most common usage patterns. For those who plan to install VP2655wb on a monitor stand for multi monitor setups or wall-mount it, we included a 200mm x 100mm VESA mount holes in the back. You can detach the base easily by unscrewing four screws and then mount the display on its new stand or wall-mount.
Another critical element for multi monitor setups is the bezel design. We made sure that VP2655wb features a thin bezel so that when you tile two, three, four or more monitors together , you have minimum lost space between them.

Piece of mind with the best pixel performance guarantee and 3 year warranty One of the aspects that make ViewSonic a market leader in displays is its commitment to quality. LCD panels are produced in factories and as everything else, they may have flaws too. One of the flaws of an LCD panel is a dead pixel, bright or a dark one. Some panels will have no dead pixels while some will have one or two or more. When LCD display manufacturers build their monitors, they will have the option to use different grade panels with different tolerance levels for number of dead pixels. ViewSonic is committed to use the highest grade panels and offer the best pixel performance policy in the market. We also back our displays with 3-year warranty for your peace of mind.
Diverse connectivity The VP2655wb features a DVI-D digital and a VGA analog input. You can connect two sources at the same time and then toggle between the two by selecting the input source through the On-Screen-Display (OSD). You can also connect one of your computer’s USB ports to the monitor’s USB uplink input which then multiplies the USB ports to four. This way, you can connect up to four USB devices to your monitor and save yourself from the hassle of reaching out to your computer’s USB ports.
