Eizo unveils ultrawide, curved monitor with built-in webcam, microphone, and USB-C dock
THE FLEXSCAN EV3450XC is a 34.1-inch ultrawide, curved monitor designed to meet the evolving needs of modern business professionals. With a UWQHD (3440 x 1440) resolution and a 21:9 aspect ratio, it offers 2.4 times the resolution of standard Full HD monitors Modern laptops often lack
sufficient connectivity, a gap filled by the EV3450XC’s USB Type-C docking station capabilities – enabling video display, audio playback, USB signal transmission, and up to 94W of power delivery to connected devices, streamlining hot desking and remote work setups. The monitor includes a dedicated LAN port to ensure a stable wired network connection when linked to a laptop via USB Type-C. This is particularly beneficial for reliable conference calls and high-speed data transfers. The 5-megapixel webcam provides vibrant, high-definition video for web meetings. It supports Windows Hello for quick, secure PC access via facial recognition, eliminating the need for passwords.
The built-in microphone has advanced noise-cancelling technology, which filters out background noise and focuses
on human voices. An echo- cancelling function further ensures clear audio. Despite integrating stereo speakers into the monitor, Eizo has managed to maintain a slim design. The placement of 4-watt speakers within the cabinet delivers sound suitable for individual use and small conference rooms. Eizo’s proprietary EcoView technologies automatically adjust the screen’s brightness according to ambient lighting to maintain optimal viewing conditions. The monitor also
features a flicker-free display, anti-glare coating, a blue light reduction function, and a paper mode to help users concentrate on work by keeping their eyes comfortable throughout the day. Eizo’s ScreenInStyle software optimises comfort, productivity, and energy efficiency for FlexScan monitors. It features ‘Auto Colour Mode’ for application-specific colour settings, power management to reduce energy consumption and multi-monitor support for synchronized settings. The software allows easy adjustment of monitor settings from the desktop, includes a task scheduler to automate routines, and offers auto-dimming.
