ViewSonic introduces three monitors that have been selected as part of the Designed for Surface Program by Microsoft. The VG245, VG275, and VP275-4K are the only Designed for Surface-approved and validated monitors, specifically recommended for use with all Microsoft USB-C Surface Products. Packed with features, these monitors are ideal for home or office use. The USB Type-C connectivity provides charging power, video, and audio over a single connector for convenience and will charge the Surface device without requiring an additional power cable.
Designed for Surface works with Partners to expand the range of accessories available to support Surface users both at work and at home. Microsoft tests each Designed for Surface product for device compatibility, certifying products that enable Surface users to experience the powerful productivity of their Surface devices simply and securely. “These Designed for Surface certified monitors are a great fit with the dual monitor support of our current and future Surface devices,” said Branden Powell, Senior Director at Microsoft. “We are impressed with the vivid detail of the monitors and are excited that ViewSonic will be offering them to our customers as they take their productivity and creativity to the next level.”
Designed for Surface [DfS] is a selection of tested and approved compatible accessories and devices all guaranteed to work with all Surface USB-C devices. The ViewSonic® 24-inch, 1080p VG245, the 27-inch, 1080p VG275, and 27-inch, 4K UHD VP275 are the first DfS certified monitors. In addition to the USB-C port, other connectivity options include HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB 3.0. They also feature advanced ergonomic designs for a wide range of customizable adjustments for maximum comfort.
“We’re excited to be part of the Microsoft Designed for Surface program, and that the VG245, VG275, and VP275-4K were approved and validated,” said Jeff Muto, Business Line Director at ViewSonic. “This partnership ensures that Microsoft and ViewSonic users have a suite of products and devices that can work together seamlessly at home or in the office.
