Ratingen, Germany, July 20, 2023 — ASUS today announced ZenScreen MB16QHG, a 16-inch portable monitor that offers supersmooth visuals for work and play. The WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS panel features 120 Hz SmoothMotion technology for fluid and responsive visuals. In addition, high-dynamic-range (HDR) technology with DisplayHDR 400 compliance and a 100% DCI-P3 gamut result in imagery with exceptional contrast and color.

ZenScreen MB16QHG includes numerous features to provide users with versatile viewing positions, one of which is a foldable kickstand that securely props the monitor at any angle. The ASUS DisplayWidget Center allows the monitor to sense its orientation and automatically switches the display between landscape and portrait modes. USB-C® ports on both sides allow users the flexibility to place the monitor close to either side of a laptop for an almost-seamless extended-screen experience. In addition, an HDMI® port ensures broad compatibility with various devices, including laptops, PCs, and gaming consoles.

Exceptional design

Weighing just 1.2 kg and featuring an ultrathin profile that tapers to a mere 7 mm at its edges, ZenScreen MB16QHG slips easily into any bag, allowing users to take it just about anywhere.

The WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS panel features 120 Hz SmoothMotion technology for responsive visuals, so everything from scrolling through webpages to gaming on ZenScreen MB16QHG feels fluid and responsive. High-dynamic-range (HDR) technology with DisplayHDR 400 compliance and a 100% DCI-P3 gamut provide exceptional contrast and rich color. The panel also includes wide 178° viewing angles to ensure superb visuals even when viewed from off-center positions.

ASUS Ultra-Low Blue Light technology reduces potentially harmful blue light emissions and includes additional features such as the Blue Light Filter and Flicker-Free technology that are beneficial to those who spend long hours in front of the display.

Outstanding versatility

ZenScreen MB16QHG includes highly adjustable features that give users the flexibility and versatility to create a setup that best suits differing needs. The foldable L-shaped kickstand securely props it up at any angle. Alternatively, it can also be laid flat on a table in landscape mode for collaborative work. A built-in tripod socket readily fits standard tripods, allowing users to vary the height of the display according to preference.

When connected to a Windows PC, the ASUS DisplayWidget Lite tool[i] enables ZenScreen MB16QHG to sense its orientation and automatically switches the display between landscape and portrait modes. Landscape mode is ideal for presentations and spreadsheets, while portrait mode makes it easy when it comes to coding websites and provides the perfect view when reading documents or books.
