These days 4K resolution may be de

rigueur for monitors and televisions, but this Eizo Coloredge sets its sights a little lower at 2540x1440, resulting in a pixel count of about 3.7Mp instead of 8.3Mp. The pixel density is also lower for a 27-inch screen, at 109ppi rather than 163ppi, but image quality still looks absolutely super-sharp.

Ports include DVI, HDMI and DP, along with two upstream USB 3.0 ports. There are three downstream USB 3.0 ports behind the left-hand side of the case. Bundled software includes Quick Color Match, to enable easy colour matching between screen viewing and printed output.

Colour accuracy of our review sample was spot on, straight out of the box. The Eizo Coloredge also delivers excellent gamut for both SRGB and Adobe RGB, with presets available for both colour spaces, direct from the menu system. Uniformity across the screen is particularly good, and there’s very little backlight bleed.

PROS Spot-on colour; excellent brightness uniformity; easy-access colour space presets

CONS Not 4K; pricey for the specs you get; no built in calibration device
