EIZO Corporation has just announced the release of the FlexScan S1734, a refreshed 17-inch square monitor designed specifically for back offices, control rooms, and other professional environments where space efficiency and long-term stability matter.
The new model builds on the trusted legacy of the S1703-A, while introducing meaningful upgrades in both visual quality and energy efficiency—perfect for organizations looking to modernize without disrupting existing setups.
? What’s New in the FlexScan S1734?
✅ IPS Display with Wide Viewing Angles
The biggest leap forward is the switch from a TN to an IPS panel, significantly improving viewing angles from 170°/160° to 178°/178°. This means consistent image clarity whether viewed head-on or from the side—critical in control room environments or when multiple users are viewing the same screen.
✅ Lower Power Consumption
At just 6 watts, the S1734 is 25% more efficient than its predecessor, helping companies cut electricity costs and reduce environmental impact—an essential step in today’s sustainability-conscious world.
✅ Eco-Friendly Packaging
EIZO is taking environmental responsibility further by using recycled EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) in the packaging instead of virgin materials. This supports circular material use and reduces the monitor’s overall carbon footprint.
? Legacy Compatibility Meets Modern Needs
While many manufacturers are moving away from square monitors and analog support, EIZO continues to serve businesses that rely on legacy systems.
The S1734 includes both:
-
D-Sub (Analog VGA)
-
DVI-D (Digital)
This makes it easy to integrate into existing infrastructures—especially in sectors like government, manufacturing, security, and healthcare—where older machines still play critical roles.
Plus, EIZO has retained the exact housing dimensions of the previous S1703-A model, making it a drop-in replacement with no mounting or setup changes needed.
?️ Built-In Eye Care & Smart Features
The FlexScan S1734 includes several enhancements to support user comfort during long hours:
-
Auto EcoView: Automatically adjusts screen brightness based on ambient light.
-
Flicker-Free Display: Reduces eye strain.
-
Paper Mode: Optimizes contrast for reading documents.
-
Anti-Glare Coating: Helps eliminate screen reflections.
?️ 5-Year Warranty for Long-Term Peace of Mind
As with most EIZO professional monitors, the FlexScan S1734 comes with a 5-year manufacturer’s warranty, reaffirming its reliability and long-term support—a key selling point for mission-critical environments.
? Who Is the FlexScan S1734 For?
-
Government departments or financial institutions with legacy systems
-
Industrial or manufacturing environments requiring analog/DVI support
-
Control rooms that prioritize readability, low power draw, and reliability
-
Offices or facilities where square monitors still serve a clear purpose
Final Thoughts
In a world of ultra-wide and curved displays, it’s refreshing to see a monitor designed with practicality, legacy support, and eco-conscious engineering in mind. The EIZO FlexScan S1734 proves that even square screens can evolve—offering better visuals, lower power consumption, and long-term reliability without changing what already works.
