Are you looking for a new display that is versatile, colourful, and eco-friendly? If so, you’ll love the new ASUS VU display lineup. These Full HD monitors come in 23.8-inch or 27-inch sizes, with IPS panels, 100Hz refresh rates, and four colour options. They also have a sleek design, a height-adjustable stand, a cable management clip, an HDMI port, and a USB Type-C port with Power Delivery. ASUS offers these displays in soothing colours: Quiet Blue, Green Grey, Astro Beige, and Pink Clay.

But what makes ASUS VU displays stand out is their reduced environmental impact. The company boasts how they use 85% recycled plastic and halogen-free PCBs to make them and 100% recycled paper to package them. They're also aiming to meet the Energy Star 8.0, EPEAT Silver, and TCO Certified standards for energy efficiency, sustainability, and social responsibility. Plus, these displays have a light sensor and an Energy Saving mode to help you save power and money. The ASUS VU displays are designed for everyday computing tasks, casual gaming, and content creation. We don't have pricing yet, and it's unclear if these displays will make it to this side of the world. But we're hoping they do.

Reach level 100 on hardcore mode and tweet #Diablo4Hardcore with proof to have your username immortalized on a statue of Lilith.”

Samsung's Galaxy Enhance-X app is an AI-powered photo editor that can remove flaws and boost HDR quality in pictures. The app was launched in beta last year for Galaxy S23 customers, but it will soon be available for other devices, including the Galaxy S22 Ultra, other S22 phones and the Galaxy A series. According to a Samsung community moderator, the app will be compatible with the early 2022 flagship in about 2-3 weeks. The app can be downloaded for free from the Galaxy Store or sideloaded via APKMirror, but it is still in beta. Galaxy Enhance-X offers more advanced editing tools than the stock Gallery app on Samsung phones, and it may eventually replace it as the main image and video editing app.
