When the monitor has your back
4K resolution, USB-C docking and 94 W Power Delivery are convincing. 163 dpi for razor-sharp graphics and text.
Image quality
Precise, high-contrast, bright and crisp screen
The EV2740X supports 4K (3840 x 2160 pixel) resolution, displaying four times the amount of information than standard Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixel) , and more than two times the amount than WQHD (2560 x 1440 pixel) monitors. With 4K, you can display more applications simultaneously on a single screen, greatly reducing the need to scroll or switch windows frequently.
Be it CAD, office, or video applications, the FlexScan EV2740X with its 4K ultra HD resolution supports your work with its extraordinary display quality. Thanks to a native resolution of 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) pixels and 163 ppi (pixels per inch), the 27 monitor presents texts and graphics clearer and more precisely than ever before.
The monitor is capable of all three key elements of excellent image quality: excellent resolution of 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) pixels, maximum contrast of 2000:1, and stable brightness of up to 350 cd/m². That means you will experience razor-sharp text contours, brilliant graphics, and clear images. Thanks to the high-quality IPS panels with LED backlight, contrasts and colours remain stable from every viewing angle.
An image can only be perfect if the colours are, too. This is why EIZO monitors have a 10-bit look-up table at a minimum, which allows the colour information to be assigned much more precisely than with conventional 8-bit LUTs. The finest colour gradations ensure that gradients are always perfectly displayed, while also offering customised adjustment options. For example, you can adjust the white balance from 4000 K to 10 000 K in 500-K intervals.
Fast, faster, overdrive. The overdrive function accelerates switching time so that the gray-gray change takes only 5 ms on average. You can watch films and rapidly changing images without annoying afterglow.
Variety of ports
Best connectivity
Video and audio reproduction, data transfer, including network signal and power supply for connected devices – all this and so much more is possible with a single USB-C cable. The EV2740X will become your central docking station to which you can quickly and easily connect your laptop. This is especially practical if you have multiple workstations or switch between working in an office and at home.
The 94 W power supply via USB-C reliably charges small computers or laptops, giving you more desk space since an additional power supply is no longer necessary for the computer.
For information on compatibility between PCs and FlexScan monitors when using a USB-C connection, please visit the EIZO Global website.
It couldn't be easier: Most end devices, such as PC, laptop, mouse, keyboard or headphones, can be connected directly to the monitor, thanks to its wide range of signal interfaces and ports. This makes your daily work easier and ensures a tidy desk.
Stable network connection
The monitor has a dedicated LAN port to ensure a stable wired network connection. Laptops and PCs require only one USB cable to be connected to the EV2740X to gain network access via the monitor. This is particularly advantageous for laptops that do not have a LAN connection and allows for fast and stable data transfer, which is required for video conferences, for example. As a network device the monitor has its own MAC address.
Optionally, the "EIZO MAC Address Clone Utility" software for Windows can temporarily assign the MAC address of the connected PC to the monitor. This transparency grants authenticated PCs network access through the monitor.
Two PCs, one control
It's never been easier to operate different PCs with a single mouse and keyboard. With its USB upstream ports, the EV2740X has a built-in KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) switch. The monitor automatically links the mouse and keyboard to the currently active source computer. This means, for example, that a desktop PC and a laptop or a work and home PC can be operated on the same combination of monitor, mouse and keyboard. This ensures uninterrupted work and a tidy workspace.
Design
A pleasing sight on any desk
The monitor’s appearance can be the key to creating a pleasant working atmosphere. Whether you are at home or in the office, the monitor’s virtually frameless design and ergonomic functionality allows it to fit naturally into your workplace environment. The housing is available in both an elegant black and in white, with matching white cables.
Electrostatic switches are integrated into the front of the EV2740X instead of mechanical buttons. This ensures ease of use while also giving the monitor an extremely elegant look. The speakers and all the controls are also built into the bezel, pointing forward in the direction of the user. They are fully integrated into the monitor’s flat, nearly frameless design to offer an excellent user experience.
Ergonomics
Working in a relaxed manner
At day, at night, bright, dark: No matter when and how you work, the Auto EcoView function continuously measures changes of the ambient light and optimises the monitor with ideal brightness values automatically by using a sensor. The benefits: Annoying glare is reduced, your eyes will not get tired as quickly. A special two-point control takes into account the brightest and darkest environment over the course of the day with the respectively desired screen brightness. Another advantage: Thanks to the automatic brightness adjustment, you will save up to 50% of your electricity costs in comparison to a monitor that is permanently operated at maximum brightness.
Of course, you can also continue to configure the monitor manually. EcoView Index is used for orientation on how environmentally friendly and economical your settings are.
For the sake of the eyes
To help protect your eyes, EIZO has developed a hybrid technology to control the backlight. This combines the benefits of the otherwise standard PWM (pulse width modulation) and DC (direct current) control. The PWM control uses much higher frequencies than standard PWM methods. The result: a flicker-free viewing experience while maintaining picture quality and colour stability. In addition, compared to pure DC control, you can adjust the brightness to less than 1% of the maximum value in darkly lit rooms. The benefit: Your screen remains free from glare even under these conditions.
The flicker-free and low blue light content of the EIZO FlexScan monitors is certified by TÜV Rheinland.
The EV2740X offers a perfect, non-glare surface. By minimising glare by diffusing the reflected light, the EV2740X effectively protects your eyes from straining. This keeps your eyes from getting as tired and allows you to sit comfortably in front of the monitor, without having to sit in a forced position to prevent glare.
Ergonomic and stable: the adjustable stand focuses on ergonomics. You can rotate, swivel and tilt the monitor stand until you find the most comfortable setting for your back, neck and sitting posture. It features continuous height adjustment and can be lowered almost to the base plate of the stand, enabling you to position the top image line ergonomically right below your eye level.
Software and ease of use
Features for greater comfort
The Picture-by-Picture mode allows you to display different signal sources on one screen. You can select which signal is to be displayed on the right or left half of the screen.
Use the Picture-by-Picture mode, for example, if you want to connect two computers to one monitor, or if you want to replace two individual screens connected to one computer.
Pre-set color modes optimise the viewing of images, texts or films. Because it makes a difference whether you are watching a film, editing a picture, surfing the net, or writing texts. At the touch of a button, you set the respective pre-set for brightness, gamma correction and colour temperature. For example, the Paper mode simulates the pleasant contrast of printed paper, which is easy on the eyes when reading and prevents fatigue.
With the Button Guide, you have all functions at a glance. One touch of the control panel is enough, and the function assignment of the buttons is displayed. Your advantage: clarity of operation and a clean, uncluttered design.
In addition to the on-screen menu, you can conveniently control the EV2740X by using the Screen InStyle software on a Windows PC. The configuration options include color reproduction, energy saving options, and ergonomic functions. In multi-screen systems, the settings can be applied synchronously to all connected screens with Screen InStyle.
Multitasking using multiple software applications, such as word processors, internet browsers, and other programs, is necessary for most professional work environments. However, a disorganised screen can inhibit productivity and make it difficult to focus.
The Screen Layout function allows you to divide the desktop and arrange each programme's window neatly across the screen to help you work smart and efficiently.
Take your personalized screen settings with you to wherever you connect your laptop or tablet to a modern EIZO monitor. Your settings are easily and automatically imported when you connect your laptop via a USB-C cable to a monitor with Screen InStyle support. This leads to improved comfort and increased work efficiency in offices that make use of hot-desking or in your home office.
Software for monitor control by administrators
System administrators can centrally manage and control monitors connected in the network with Screen InStyle installed using the Screen InStyle Server application. This optimises power consumption and simplifies asset management of the monitors.
Learn more about Screen InStyle Server here.
Company-wide default setup
Workload reduction for administrators: The software allows you to create a default setup for all relevant monitor settings. This setup can be distributed to the connected monitors via the local network which facilitates the roll-out process.
Sustainability
Environmentally and socially conscious production
EcoView Optimizer
Save electricity without compromising quality: The EcoView Optimizer reduces the background lighting fully automatically for dark images. This reduces electricity consumption by up to 30%. At the same time, the signal is amplified and the color tone values adjusted. The result: You will enjoy the image quality you are used to but consume less power.
The monitors have an integrated mechanical power switch, which is extremely practical and energy-saving: If you switch off the monitor using the power switch, the device will stop consuming any power at all. Moreover, it consumes a maximum of 0.35 watt in standby mode.
The EV2740X is produced in a socially responsible way. It is free of child labour and forced labour. Suppliers along the supply chain have been carefully selected and they have also committed themselves to produce in a socially responsible way. This applies in particular to conflict minerals. We present a detailed report about our social responsibility annually and voluntarily.
Each EV2740X is manufactured in our own factory, which implements an environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001. This includes measures to reduce waste, wastewater and emissions, resource and energy consumption, as well as to encourage environmentally conscious behaviour among employees. We publicly report on these measures on an annual basis.
The EV2740X is designed for a long service life that takes into account the entire lifecycle and impact on the environment. It is generally well above the five-year guarantee. Spare parts are available up to five years after the end of production. The monitor’s long service life and the ability to repair it save resources and the climate. When designing the EV2740X we paid attention to reducing resource consumption by using high-quality components and materials and being meticulous in production.
The EV2740X is made of 80% recycled plastic. This reduces the amount of plastic waste entering the environment, conserves resources and promotes the reuse of materials.
Reducing the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in material production, such as those found in certain paints and varnishes, is also of global interest.
Through years of research, EIZO has succeeded in achieving a smooth, nearly homogeneous color and texture in its monitor housings without the use of varnish.
For the packaging of the EV2740X, EIZO uses a padding made of moulded pulp cellulose. The material is made from recycled cardboard and paper and has a much lower environmental impact when disposed of than traditional polystyrene or plastic. All cables are stored in a cardboard compartment instead of being individually packed in plastic bags.
The monitor is certified according to important and all-encompassing sustainability standards such as TCO Certified Generation 9, EPEAT and ENERGY STAR®. The EV2740X is a safe investment, when taking into account issues such as ESG (Environmental, social and corporate governance) or SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) from the United Nations and following the necessary guidelines.

Software for network-wide settings.
Test the properties and parametres of your monitor quickly and easily with software developed in-house at EIZO.
With Screen InStyle, power, colour, brightness and other settings can be easily managed. Screen InStyle Server allows system administrators to manage and control monitors and PCs connected to the network.
EIZO monitors generally have two or more signal inputs. You can easily switch between two or more computers by pressing a button on the front of the monitor. For devices with KVM switch functionality, the USB hub also switches to the respective computer at the same time.
This may be a problem with the graphics card driver. Please install the latest driver for your graphics card and restart the PC with the monitor.
Older graphics cards may not be able to display this resolution. In this case, you will require a new graphics card with the matching output.
Firstly, please check the resolution of the LCD screen. Check the recommended resolution stated for the respective LCD screen. If you have set a lower resolution than recommended, this may result in blurring.
The LCD display is comprised of a fixed number of image elements (pixels), which light up to display the contents of the screen. The image is comprised of horizontal and vertical pixels. LCDs achieve the best image quality if all pixels can be allocated data, i.e. if the resolution configured on the computer corresponds to that of the LCD display.
The color temperature is a benchmark for measuring the white tone and is stated in Kelvin. At high temperatures, the white tone appears slightly blue, while it has a more red tone at low temperatures.
5000 K: Often used in the printing industry.
6500 K: Suitable for displaying photos and video images.
The color tone rendering is relative to the change of the input signal level. This relationship is generally known as the gamma characteristic. In image reproduction, low gamma values result in white images and high gamma values result in high-contrast images.
International standard for an RGB color space. A color space has been defined, which most devices can comply with, to enable color matching between various applications and devices, such as monitors, scanners, and digital cameras. sRGB images, which are detected or issued on "sRBG devices" are limited to the full sRBG color range and no colors outside the sRBG color space. Color allocation, white point, and gamma are permanently defined.
In connection with a USB-compatible computer, the monitor acts as a hub, to which other USB-compatible peripherals can be connected.
The viewing angle relates to the angle, beneath which the contrast is better than 10:1. These are normally values of 160° to 178°. These values do not provide any information about what enormous differences in contrast may result within the viewing angle. The contrasts should not change significantly for users with a perpendicular view and a slightly side-on view. It must not make a difference whether the viewer is looking at the middle of the image or the edge of the image. How much the contrast stability varies with different LCD technologies is best checked using a measurement diagram or by a direct visual comparison. The more stable the contrast in the user's viewing frustum, the better the image rendering.
This is where the signal values are allocated to the color tone values for the output in the monitor. EIZO monitors are 24, 16, 14, or 10 bit instead of the conventional 8 bit look-up table (LUT) for precise color control. Precision work, performed by a high-performance chip developed in-house at EIZO.
EIZO provides up to a five-year warranty, although some devices have a different warranty period. You can find out the exact warranty periods for each product either in the warranty terms and conditions above, in the datasheet, or on the EIZO international website. The long warranty periods are made possible by a highly developed manufacturing process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative monitor technology, manufactured from high-end materials. For you, the 5-year warranty means a high level of investment security and savings on follow-up costs (total cost of ownership), which would be incurred without warranty service, for example, for maintenance and repairs.
Product reviews
Reviews International
With the EV2740X, EIZO presents a 4K business monitor in perfection. More is not really possible. In addition to design improvements, the USB-C connectivity in particular is brought up to date. With a power supply of 94 watts, external devices can now be operated much more efficiently. The already extensive ergonomic functions are further improved by the latest FlexStand, including a new stylish stand.
EIZO's image quality is usually convincing, but what the EV2740X delivers can really only be described as perfect, [...] The image homogeneity is also convincing. A static contrast of more than 2000:1 for an IPS panel is exceptional. But colour reproduction and viewing angles also deliver top values. [...]
For this reason, we can give the EIZO EV2740X an unqualified buy recommendation. In this quality, the manufacturer sets the bar enormously high and can be considered the reference in the field of 4K business monitors.
