Asus launches Mac-friendly features for its ProArt Displays
20 January 2026, 16:50:14
Add DisplaySpecifications as a preferred source on GoogleAsus has unveiled a suite of new features for its ProArt display lineup, aiming to deliver a more seamless and color-accurate experience for users of MacBook, Mac mini, and Mac Studio devices. The updates center on tighter macOS integration, enhanced color management, and expanded workflow tools designed for creative professionals.
A key addition is the Asus DisplayWidget Center for macOS, an intuitive software interface that allows users to adjust brightness, contrast, and color temperature directly from their Mac. The software also enables brightness control through native MacBook shortcut keys, eliminating the need to navigate on‑screen menus. Complementing this is the new M Model P3 color setting, engineered to align ProArt displays with MacBook color output for consistent accuracy across multiple screens.
The ProArt series continues to emphasize precision and visual fidelity. Each display is factory‑calibrated to Calman Verified standards and achieves up to Delta E<1 color accuracy, paired with a wide 99% DCI‑P3 color gamut. High‑resolution panels with dense pixel counts ensure that the latest Mac hardware can fully showcase its graphics capabilities. Select models also support up to a 240 Hz variable refresh rate, offering smooth, ProMotion‑compatible visuals for motion‑intensive creative work.
Color professionals gain additional control through ProArt Calibration software, which supports both SDR and HDR workflows on macOS. The system stores calibration profiles directly on the monitor’s internal scaler chip and can generate ICC profiles for a wide range of displays, including MacBook screens. Compatibility with leading calibration tools - such as X‑Rite, Calibrite, Datacolor, Klein, and Colorimetry Research - ensures flexibility for studios with diverse equipment. For multi‑monitor environments, the ProArt Color Center online platform allows administrators to track calibration schedules and manage color consistency across different locations.
Connectivity remains a major focus of the ProArt lineup. Models equipped with USB‑C or Thunderbolt 4 offer fast data transfer, DisplayPort compatibility, and up to 96 W Power Delivery through a single cable. Additional ports, including HDMI and DisplayPort with daisy‑chain support, position the display as a central hub for peripherals. Built‑in Auto KVM functionality enables users to switch between two connected computers - MacBooks or PCs - using one keyboard and mouse.
Ergonomics and eye comfort also receive attention. ProArt displays feature adjustable stands with tilt, swivel, and height controls, along with a quick‑release mechanism for easy VESA mounting. TÜV Rheinland‑certified Flicker‑Free and Low Blue Light technologies help reduce eye strain during long editing sessions, with a customizable blue‑light slider available through the on‑screen display.
To further support creative workflows, Asus has partnered with Adobe to offer a complimentary three‑month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud with eligible ProArt Display purchases in select regions. The bundle includes access to flagship applications such as Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and Substance 3D, along with Adobe Stock and Acrobat Standard. The offer, valued at US$803.85, can be redeemed once per customer and remains available through August 31, 2026.
With these updates, Asus positions the ProArt series as a comprehensive, Mac‑friendly solution for creators seeking precision, consistency, and streamlined control across their visual workflows.
