iiyama ProLite XUB3293UHSN-B5 31.5in Monitor Review

The iiyama ProLite XUB3293UHSN-B5 is another competent professional monitor from the company. You need to calibrate it to go from good to excellent colour accuracy, the gamut isn't quite as good as we might have hoped, nor is the brightness uniformity. But it's packed with features for professionals.

The USB-C capabilities are particularly well developed. Even with our overpowered Dell laptop, it delivered a single-cable attachment for video signal, power delivery, keyboard and mouse, audio, and even networking. If you have both a desktop and a USB-C-equipped laptop you'd like to use with one big 4K screen and the greatest ease of switching between them, this monitor delivers. The 32in screen diagonal is also just right for 4K in our view.

The ergonomic adjustments are comprehensive, which is useful for a screen you might be working at for hours on end. The one downside is the price. At close to £500, this is an expensive display even for 4K, although not extortionate. It might be worth getting your company to pay for it, though, because this is a capable workhorse monitor.

KitGuru says: The iiyama ProLite XUB3293UHSN-B5 is a competent business and professional screen with detail-rich 4K resolution, excellent colour accuracy when calibrated, and a USB-C enabled KVM that includes power and networking.
