When the monitor has your back
State-of-the-art connectivity with USB-C upstream including DisplayPort signal and Power Delivery. Your advantage: convenient multi-purpose connectivity, whether in the home office or in the office.
Variety of ports
Best connectivity
A single USB-C cable is all that is needed to provide video and audio reproduction, transfer data quickly and supply power to the connected devices. The 70 W power supply via USB-C is highly practical and can reliably charge small computers or laptops. This creates more space on your desk since you no longer need an additional power supply for your computer.
We have tested a small selection of different devices and the compatibility between monitor and computer for you and described them on the international EIZO website.
It couldn't be easier: Most end devices, such as PC, laptop, mouse, keyboard or headphones, can be connected directly to the monitor, thanks to its wide range of signal interfaces and ports. This makes your daily work easier and ensures a tidy desk.
Design
A pleasing sight on any desk
The monitor’s appearance can be the key to creating a pleasant working atmosphere. Whether you are at home or in the office, the monitor’s virtually frameless design and ergonomic functionality allows it to fit naturally into your workplace environment. The housing is available in both an elegant black and in white, with matching white cables.
Incidentally, the EV2781 is an ideal match for daisy-chain multi-screen systems with its sister model, the EV2795. The housing design and stand are identical.

Image quality
Precise, high-contrast, bright and crisp screen
The monitor is capable of all three key elements of excellent image quality: excellent resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, maximum contrast of 1000:1, and stable brightness of up to 350 cd/m². That means you will experience razor-sharp text contours, brilliant graphics, and clear images. Thanks to the high-quality IPS panels with LED backlight, contrasts and colours remain stable from every viewing angle.
An image can only be perfect if the colors are, too. This is why EIZO monitors have a 10-bit look-up table at a minimum, which allows the color information to be assigned much more precisely than with conventional 8-bit LUTs. The finest color gradations ensure that gradients are always perfectly displayed, while also offering customised adjustment options. For example, you can adjust the white balance from 4000 K to 10 000 K in 500-K intervals.
The overdrive function accelerates the switching time so that gray-grey changes take place in just 5 ms on average. You can watch movies and fast image changes without annoying afterglow. When scrolling and positioning windows or images, the display is legible in fractions of a second - faster than it can be perceived. Power consumption and energy efficiency are always in view.
Ergonomics
Working in a relaxed manner
At day, at night, bright, dark: No matter when and how you work, the Auto EcoView function continuously measures changes of the ambient light and optimises the monitor with ideal brightness values automatically by using a sensor. The benefits: Annoying glare is reduced, your eyes will not get tired as quickly. A special two-point control takes into account the brightest and darkest environment over the course of the day with the respectively desired screen brightness. Another plus: the automatic brightness adjustment can significantly reduce power consumption.
Of course, you can also continue to configure the monitor manually. EcoView Index is used for orientation on how economical your settings are.
For the sake of the eyes
To help protect your eyes, EIZO has developed a hybrid technology to control the backlight. This combines the benefits of the otherwise standard PWM (pulse width modulation) and DC (direct current) control. The PWM control uses much higher frequencies than standard PWM methods. The result: a flicker-free viewing experience while maintaining picture quality and colour stability. In addition, compared to pure DC control, you can adjust the brightness to less than 1% of the maximum value in darkly lit rooms. The benefit: Your screen remains free from flicker and glare even under these conditions.
The flicker-free and low blue light content of the EIZO FlexScan monitors is certified by TÜV Rheinland.
The EV2781 offers a perfect, non-glare surface. By minimising glare by diffusing the reflected light, the EV2781 effectively protects your eyes from straining. This keeps your eyes from getting as tired and allows you to sit comfortably in front of the monitor, without having to sit in a forced position to prevent glare.
Ergonomic and stable: the adjustable stand focuses on ergonomics. You can rotate, swivel and tilt the monitor stand until you find the most comfortable setting for your back, neck and sitting posture. It features continuous height adjustment and can be lowered almost to the base plate of the stand, enabling you to position the top image line ergonomically right below your eye level.

Software and ease of use
Features for greater comfort
The Picture-by-Picture mode allows you to display different signal sources on one screen. You can select which signal is to be displayed on the right or left half of the screen.
Use the Picture-by-Picture mode, for example, if you want to connect two computers to one monitor, or if you want to replace two individual screens connected to one computer.
Preset color modes optimize the viewing of images, texts or videos. Because it makes a difference whether you are watching a video, looking at a picture, surfing the net or writing texts. At the touch of a button, you can set the respective preset for brightness, gamma correction and color temperature. An example: Paper mode simulates the pleasant contrast of printed paper, making reading easier on the eyes and preventing fatigue.
Electrostatic switches are integrated into the front of the EV2781 instead of mechanical buttons. This ensures ease of use while also giving the monitor an extremely elegant look.
With the Button Guide, you have all functions at a glance. One touch of the control panel is enough, and the function assignment of the buttons is displayed. Your advantage: clarity of operation and a clean, uncluttered design.
The speakers and all the controls are also built into the bezel, pointing forward in the direction of the user. They are fully integrated into the monitor’s flat, nearly frameless design to offer an excellent user experience.
Monitor control and administration
In addition to the on-screen menu, you can conveniently control the EV2781 by using the Screen InStyle software on a PC. The configuration options include color reproduction, energy saving options, and ergonomic functions. In multi-screen systems, the settings can be applied synchronously to all connected screens with Screen InStyle.
Software for monitor control by administrators
System administrators can centrally manage and control monitors connected in the network with Screen InStyle installed using the Screen InStyle Server application. This optimises power consumption and simplifies asset management of the monitors.
Company-wide default setup
Workload reduction for administrators: The software allows you to create a default setup for all relevant monitor settings. This setup can be distributed to the connected monitors via the local network which facilitates the roll-out process.
Sustainability
Environmentally and socially conscious production
Energy efficiency is an important aspect in the development of EIZO monitors. The monitors are equipped with features and functions to reduce power consumption to a minimum.
The Auto EcoView function automatically adjusts the brightness of the screen to changes in ambient light. This saves electricity compared to a monitor that is operated at a constant brightness. Of course, you can still adjust the monitor manually. The EcoView index serves as a guide to how economical your setting is.
The EcoView Optimizer automatically reduces the backlight in dark images, thereby reducing power consumption. At the same time, the signal is amplified and the color tone values are adjusted. The result: you experience the usual image quality with lower consumption.
These EcoView technologies reduce overall power consumption by up to 50%* compared to the display at maximum brightness. Another plus: the automatic brightness adjustment can be easy on your eyes.
* Typical power consumption when no USB Power Delivery is used.
The monitors have an integrated mechanical power switch, which is extremely practical and energy-saving: If you switch off the monitor using the power switch, the device will stop consuming any power at all. Moreover, it consumes a maximum of 0.5 watt in standby mode.
FlexScan monitors from EIZO are produced in accordance with international environmental regulations and in a socially responsible manner. Suppliers along the supply chain are carefully selected and have also committed themselves to this responsibility. During the design process, attention was paid to the low use of resources with high-quality components and materials as well as careful production. In addition, FlexScan monitors protect resources and the climate thanks to their long service life, warranty and repairability.
Read detailed information about product sustainability here.
The EV2781 is made of more than 60% recycled plastic. This reduces the amount of plastic waste entering the environment, conserves resources and promotes the reuse of materials.
Reducing the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in material production, such as those found in certain paints and varnishes, is also of global interest.
Through years of research, EIZO has succeeded in achieving a smooth, nearly homogeneous color and texture in its monitor housings without the use of varnish.
For the packaging of the EV2781, EIZO uses a padding made of moulded pulp cellulose. The material is made from recycled cardboard and paper and has a much lower environmental impact when disposed of than traditional polystyrene or plastic. All cables are stored in a cardboard compartment instead of being individually packed in plastic bags.
Depending on the quantity and delivery time, EIZO offers an alternative packaging option with four monitors and four separate stands in one shipping unit each.
This reduces packaging waste, increases shipping efficiency and shortens unpacking and installation time.
Space-saving collective packaging: 1) monitors, 2) stands
The monitor is certified to important and comprehensive sustainability standards such as TCO Certified Generation 9 and ENERGY STAR®. It also has an EPEAT Gold registration for compliance with strict sustainability standards at the highest level, which is even complemented by a Climate + award on science-based climate protection standards.
The EV2781 represents a safe investment if aspects such as ESG (environmental, social and corporate governance) or SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) of the United Nations are to be observed and required guidelines are to be complied with.
Warranty
Highest investment security
EIZO grants a five-year warranty. This is possible thanks to the highly developed production process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative technology, made from high-end materials.

Around your product
Software for network-wide settings.
Test the properties and parametres of your monitor quickly and easily with software developed in-house at EIZO.
With Screen InStyle, power, colour, brightness and other settings can be easily managed. Screen InStyle Server allows system administrators to manage and control monitors and PCs connected to the network.
Yes, this is possible with an open and closed notebook through the monitor's power delivery function. To do this, deactivate the USB-C power supply of the notebook in idle mode in the Admininstrator menu of the monitor.
Compatibility Mode ON = Power supply active in idle mode
Compatiblitly Mode OFF = Power supply only when switched on
To start the notebook with the monitor switched on, please activate the function "Power On with AC attach" in its BIOS/UEFI.
Depending on the computer, the function name may be slightly different.
To keep your monitor looking like new at all times and to prolong the service life of your device, we recommend cleaning it regularly. Clean the casing and LCD surface as described below:
IMPORTANT: Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol (ethanol, methanol or isopropyl alcohol), scouring agents or other strong solvents as these may damage the casing and the LCD display.
Casing
Remove marks by wiping the casing with a soft cloth, which you have previously moistened with a mild cleaning agent. Never spray wax or cleaning agents directly on to the casing. (The manual contains exact details.)
LCD display
Where necessary, the monitor surface may be cleaned using a soft cloth (for example a cotton cloth or glasses cloth). Stubborn marks can generally be removed by wetting the cloth with a bit of water to increase the cleaning strength.
Monitors and computers use a handshake to separately negotiate the power supply. The power supply is therefore protected against overloads and can be connected by the user without having to do anything but plug in the cable. We recommend using the USB-C cable supplied with the monitor since it supports 5A charging currents.
EIZO monitors support DisplayPort Alternate Mode with their USB-C interface. This means they can correctly display image signals from Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 ports via USB-C connection. The USB-C signal cable supplied by EIZO with the monitor has the optimal suitability.
Alternatively, monitors with a DisplayPort socket can be connected using a suitable cable. The CP200 signal cable (USB-C (TB3/TB4) to DisplayPort) provided by EIZO is the most suitable.
A connection from Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 ports to the HDMI interface of the monitor can work with suitable active adapters/cables. However, we recommend using the USB-C or DisplayPort interface of the monitor.
The EIZO software does not run or runs slower on Windows 11 when Smart App Control is enabled. To solve the problem, please disable Smart App Control in Windows 11.
DisplayPort-HDMI conversion cables are designed for connecting a DisplayPort output at the graphic card and a HDMI input at the monitor. An HDMI output does not support DisplayPort signal. Therefore, such cables do not work the other way around. Please connect the monitor in another way, e.g. using DisplayPort output or USB-C output with DisplayPort Alt mode. We recommend the DisplayPort input at the monitor, since some computer and/or operating systems do apply special signal settings to a HDMI device, e.g. limited signal range or gamut settings.
DisplayPort-DVI conversion cables are designed for connecting a DisplayPort output at the graphic card and a DVI input at the monitor. An DVI output does not support DisplayPort signal. Therefore, such cables do not work the other way around. Please connect the monitor in another way, e.g. using DisplayPort output at the computer and DVI input at the monitor side. If you must use DVI output you may connect to HDMI input at the monitor with a DVI-HDMI conversion cable. For selecting the cable, please mind if your signal is dual link DVI or single link DVI.
Most adapters are DisplayPort to HDMI which means DisplayPort/Source/PC to HDMI/Sink/Monitor.
The DisplayPort output of your computer will detect an HDMI monitor and send an HDMI signal over its DisplayPort output. These cables only work in this direction. It does not work in the direction HDMI/Source/PC to DisplayPort/Sink/Monitor. HDMI outputs cannot send a DisplayPort signal. Please use a different adapter like USB-C to DisplayPort, HDMI to DVI or use a dedicated active HDMI to DisplayPort converter.
EIZO provides up to a five-year warranty, although some devices have a different warranty period. You can find out the exact warranty periods for each product either in the warranty terms and conditions above, in the datasheet, or on the EIZO international website. The long warranty periods are made possible by a highly developed manufacturing process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative monitor technology, manufactured from high-end materials. For you, the 5-year warranty means a high level of investment security and savings on follow-up costs (total cost of ownership), which would be incurred without warranty service, for example, for maintenance and repairs.
