Three New Monitors Propelled a New Category for Designed for Surface Products
Brea, CA (Feb. 27, 2024) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, was named the 2023 Partner of the Year in the second annual Designed for Surface Partner Awards. ViewSonic launched three monitors that helped initiate a new category for the Designed for Surface Program by Microsoft. The Designed for Surface Awards recognizes manufacturing partners that demonstrate exceptional customer engagement, customer experience, and innovation in support of Surface products. Microsoft tests and certifies each Designed for Surface product for compatibility with specified Surface devices.
The ViewSonic VG245, VG275, and VP275-4K are the only Designed for Surface-approved and validated monitors, specifically recommended for use with all Microsoft USB-C Surface products. Packed with a variety of versatile features, these monitors are ideal for home or office use. All three of these monitors include USB-C connectivity for charging power, video, and audio over a single cable, and will charge Surface devices without the need for an additional power cable.
“We offer heartfelt congratulations to ViewSonic. The Designed for Surface certified monitors from ViewSonic have established a new category and helped our customers take their productivity and creativity to the next level,” said Allison Cargill, Accessories Product Lead, Microsoft. “We appreciate the collaborative partnership with ViewSonic and are impressed with their dedication to customer experience.”
“We’re honored to be selected as Partner of the Year” said Jeff Muto, Business Line Director at ViewSonic. “This partnership ensures that Surface and ViewSonic users have a suite of products and devices that can work together seamlessly at home or in the office. All three ViewSonic DfS monitors come with features and functionality that are essential for productivity, and with the Designed for Surface designation, consumers will have a system that fits with their work style.”
Finalists and winners for the awards were selected from nominations received by the Designed for Surface team. Candidates for Partner of the Year were judged based on customer engagement, the impact of their product line on the market and range of support for Surface products. Designed for Surface has worked with partners to expand the range of accessories available to support consumer and commercial scenarios for more than a decade.
