The 32” AOC U3 Graphic Pro monitor (To give its full name, the U32U3CV) is an absolute game-changer for any creative! As a Graphic Designer working on multiple projects with different design requirements, I need a monitor that can keep up with demanding workflow and this one certainly delivers.

The colour accuracy is phenomenal. The monitor comes with Calman Ready technology, meaning that it takes a fraction of the time to calibrate compared to the previous monitors I’ve had. It took me a few minutes, compared to other monitors where I’ve fiddled with settings for the better part of a day. It delivers 98% DCI-P3 coverage and 100% Rec. 709 coverage, which means colours are vibrant and true-to-life, essential when presenting work. And with Delta E <2 colour accuracy, I can trust that what I see on screen is what I’ll get in my final output. I don’t have to worry now about colour inaccuracy!

I’m dedicating a full paragraph just to the fact it’s Vesa Certified DisplayHDR™ 400. I’ve worked with “HDR compatible” screens in the past, and they have never fully delivered on their promise. True DisplayHDR™ 400 is a game-changer, delivering outstanding brightness, contrast, and colour peak brightness of up to 400 nits. It’s genuinely felt like I’ve been working in the stone age on past monitors, I’m never going back to anything that does not have this certification.

But it’s not just about performance, it’s about comfort too. I really appreciate how sleek and modern the design is, and the 32” 4-side frameless screen makes it feel like I’m working on a canvas rather than a monitor. The adjustable height, tilt, and swivel mean I can find the perfect ergonomic position, even after hours of staring at the screen. No more stiff neck and aching back! The aesthetics make it feel high-end and fit for the discerning creative.

If you’ve done any creative position, you know you’ll be juggling devices, and living with a desktop that represents a jungle is frustrating! With the Graphic Pro monitor, this is now a thing of the past, and I can reclaim my desk space back! The USB-C connection is a lifesaver, allowing me to connect my laptop and charge it simultaneously with just one cable. I don’t really know what to do with all this free space! (maybe more half-full water bottles?)

Overall, the AOC U3 Graphic Pro monitor is a dream come true for any Designer. It’s got the colour accuracy, connectivity, and comfort I need to tackle any project, all in a stylish package.

If you’re serious about your creative work (which I hope you are if you’re reading this), this is the monitor for you!
