Its 98% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB coverage aligns closely with Apple's display color standards, making it a strong pairing for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Mac Pro, and Mac mini systems requiring a secondary display with accurate color. Thunderbolt 4 in and out ports support daisy chaining of up to two 4K monitors from a single laptop connection, with the host port delivering 100W power delivery and 40 Gbps bandwidth for data and video simultaneously. A secondary USB-C port provides 15W charging for phones, tablets, or other peripherals. HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort inputs extend compatibility to Windows workstations and other video sources. The integrated USB-A hub keeps keyboards, storage devices, and other accessories connected through the display. An anti-glare IPS panel with hard-coating (3H) and 25% haze minimizes reflections in brightly lit office environments. The ergonomic stand provides 120mm height adjustment, 60° swivel, 90° pivot in both directions, and 5°\/22° tilt range, supporting long-duration use. ViewSonic's ColorPro Display Manager software enables Mac users to control brightness and volume via keyboard function keys. A Kensington lock slot and VESA 100x100mm mount pattern support security and flexible deployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4K UHD IPS Panel\u003c\/strong\u003e — 3840x2160 resolution at 500 cd\/m² brightness delivers sharp, detailed imagery for design and content creation workflows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e98% DCI-P3 Color Coverage\u003c\/strong\u003e — Broad color gamut with 100% sRGB coverage provides accurate color reproduction aligned with Mac display standards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePantone Validated\u003c\/strong\u003e — Certified to reproduce Pantone Matching System colors, eliminating guesswork in print and design prepress.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThunderbolt 4 with 100W Power Delivery\u003c\/strong\u003e — Single-cable connection charges compatible laptops at up to 100W while delivering 4K video and 40 Gbps data.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual 4K Daisy Chain\u003c\/strong\u003e — Thunderbolt 4 in and out ports support connecting two 4K monitors in series from a single host port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMac-Compatible with ColorPro Display Manager\u003c\/strong\u003e — Function key control of brightness and volume on Mac systems via ViewSonic software.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-C Hub (15W)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Secondary USB-C port charges smartphones and accessories while the Thunderbolt port handles the host laptop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual USB-A Downstream Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e — Connects peripherals directly through the monitor, reducing desk cable complexity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Ergonomic Adjustment\u003c\/strong\u003e — 120mm height, 60° swivel, 90° pivot, 5°\/22° tilt for comfortable positioning across extended work sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-Glare Panel Surface\u003c\/strong\u003e — Hard-coated (3H) anti-glare surface with 25% haze reduces reflections in well-lit workspaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEPEAT Gold Certified\u003c\/strong\u003e — Meets strict environmental lifecycle standards;
