ViewSonic at 2025 International CES: 27-inch and 16-inch Wireless Monitors, and More
At CES 2025 we sneaked up on ViewSonic, as they were setting up a giant mosaic screen. The star attraction is the VG2748N, a 27-inch wireless monitor. The display uses Wi-Fi TX and a USB-C dongle to wirelessly get its display input from a supported source, such as a modern laptop. If you prefer wired connectivity, you get DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 1.4. The display specs are nothing to write home about—1080p 60 Hz with 250 nits brightness; but the main pull is the wireless connectivity. The monitor isn't exactly portable, it looks conventional, but has a quick-setup stand. ViewSonic will launch this one later this quarter (before April).
For portability, the company has the VG1656N, a 16-inch portable monitor that you can cast wirelessly to. It features a 16:10 aspect ratio with 1920 x 1200 resolution, and 60 Hz refresh rate. The monitor has a built-in battery, and a pair of USB-C ports for two-way charging (to charge the monitor, as well as to charge your laptop from the monitor's battery). The monitor features a folio-type cover-stand. This monitor is available now for $300. We also spotted the XG275D-4K, a 27-inch wired monitor with 4K Ultra HD resolution. This display does 4K UHD at 160 Hz, or 1080p at 360 Hz. It packs NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility, and AMD FreeSync Premium. Inputs include DisplayPort 2.0 and HDMI 2.1. ViewSonic plans to launch this some time in Q2-2025.
