    Good Monitor, A Couple of Annoying Features...

    I studied features for new monitors for several months, looking for specific specs. I thought I had found it with this Asus. For the most part, I've been pretty satisfied. It was easy to set up, looks good, functions well. Two issues cost this monitor a star: (1) Within a month, it developed a broken pixel. It's almost invisible except on a black screen, where you can see the tiny red speck. It looks like a lost, lonely sun in a galaxy of darkness. Doesn't bother me much, but it bothers me that a brand new monitor has this kind of issue. I didn't take it back because COVID was just setting in and it was very inconvenient due to restricted face-to-face interactions and unbearably long phone waits. (2) The two front base legs are obnoxiously HUGE. The upside? This thing is STABLE. The downside? It is a surface space hog. I really do not like this part of the monitor at all. Not a terribly monitor at all. I'm not rushing out to replace it. But if you're in the market for one with similar features at a similar price point, keep looking.

    Great monitor for the price, got it when it was on sale. Overall happy with this purchase, just can't seem to figure out how to change it to 144hz but I'm sure I'll get it though, for the price definitely worth the purchase.

    Needed a larger monitor to help these old eyes, this ASUS 27" fits the bill for me perfectly. Easy to install, now helping these peepers to read/watch whatever I want so much better than on little laptop I was using.

    I absolutely love this monitor. I have had it for over a year now and haven’t had a single problem. It’s a very good 144 Hrtz monitor. I recommend it to any gamer out the in need of a inexpensive gaming monitor.

    This is a great monitor for the money the refresh rate provides very smooth movement. Now I’m just adding words because Best Buy can’t seem to count characters and keeps rejecting my review as being too short.

    Really found the colors to be better for sure! I could almost not tell the difference between a VA 2K monitor and this one. I've always like Asus monitor. the menu interface is useful.

    At first I did not believe 144Hz would be all that different from 60Hz but I was really blown away! Great viewing angles, content looks crisp and color is pretty dynamic. Best user interface for adjusting a monitor I've ever seen!

    I was not aware the monitor lacked a camera, would have bought another model, brand had I done my research. Made the mistake of assuming all new monitors had camera. Also, poor speakers. Contrast and color all very good.

    I got the slightly less feature rich version of this monitor that was a TFT and it just wasn't noticeably different from a monitor that was 12 years older. I returned it and got this one. Holy cow do reds pop. I got it to use with my PS4 but with FreeSync it would also be amazing for a PC if I decide to game on PC in the future. This thing is beautiful. Even compared to a similar BenQ with 1 ms latency, this just blows that out of the water. My friend is very jealous. No one can complain about the video quality of this monitor.

    I really like this monitor it displays the color really well, it's pretty bright which can be fixed but overall this monitor is really nice. I definitely think it is overpriced and you can get the same thing for almost 150 dollars less or even more on some occasions.

    I can always count on ASUS to come through with a solid product at a price point that I could afford during these crazy times. I needed an upgrade from the 75hz monitor I was using, and this fit the bill nicely.

    Overall, it’s a great gaming monitor, especially for any customer that doesn’t already have a gaming microphone. I was a bit disappointed in the color accuracy and vibrancy of the panel. I was expecting a bit more from an ASUS IPS monitor. For gaming though, it’s great!

    Currently using this for my PS4 and works well. I can’t use all the features with it, which kinda sucks. Gets the job done and works a lot better than my previous monitor, which, even when new, didn’t have the greatest picture quality. So this is a nice upgrade for me!

    Replaced a 34" Samsung ultra wide. While the size difference is missed the picture quality is not. The images on the monitor looks way better than the previous one. Very happy with purchase.
