ViewSonic’s VX25G26-4 is a 24.5-inch Fast IPS FHD monitor with a 400 Hz native refresh (420 Hz OC), 1 ms GtG, 450 nits, and 1000:1 contrast, covering 100% sRGB and about 91% DCI‑P3. It includes HDMI 2.1×2, DisplayPort 1.4×2, and 3.5 mm audio out.

ViewSonic has introduced the VX25G26-4, a 24.5-inch Fast IPS gaming monitor featuring a native 400 Hz refresh rate with an advertised overclock to 420 Hz at 1920×1080. The panel is specified at 1 ms GtG, 450 cd/m² brightness, and 1000:1 static contrast, with support for Adaptive-Sync across AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G‑Sync, plus basic HDR processing.

The display uses a W‑LED backlight and matte anti‑glare coating, with viewing angles rated at 178° horizontally and vertically. Color coverage is listed at approximately 100% sRGB and around 91% DCI‑P3, with 8‑bit color depth and no FRC, which reflects a speed‑first configuration (typical of esports‑class FHD panels). Pixel density comes to roughly 89 ppi on the 24.5‑inch diagonal, and the specified vertical frequency range spans about 48-420 Hz depending on operating mode.

Connectivity includes two HDMI 2.1 ports, two DisplayPort 1.4 inputs, and a 3.5 mm audio out. Ergonomics consist of a tilt‑only stand with forward tilt to about 5° and back tilt to about 20°, plus VESA 100×100 mm mounting and a removable stand for arm setups. The chassis offers a three‑sided micro‑bezel design and rear RGB LED "atmosphere" lighting. A Kensington anti‑theft stand lock slot is present as well.

The monitor lists power consumption of approximately 33 W typical and up to 40 W maximum, with 0.5 W in sleep and 0.3 W in off mode. The package includes a DisplayPort cable, and certifications include CCC, CEL, and RoHS for the target market. As of writing, pricing and availability details haven't been disclosed by Viewsonic or third-party outlets.
