Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great gaming monitor for the money. Lots of features and Settings. Can be a very bright monitor along with great HDR. very useful controls on the back of the monitor for easy settings. Use it for gaming and video editing. The curving is not extreme and really helps when gaming. Nice screen to look at in all applications.

As a PS5 gamer, this monitor is great and unlocks the PS5's full capabilities of 2160p at 120hz and VRR. The image quality and performance are both very vivid, powerful, and amazing, especially in colorful games that really make the visuals pop like Cyberpunk and God of War. However, when it comes to dark games like Silent Hill or just any dark scene in general, the backlight bleed is extremely severe and noticeable, even when you turn down the nit level on the monitor. I try not to let it bother me as most action during games happens in the middle of the screen anyways, but the bleed is heavily severe it's hard not to notice, especially in a pitch black room. So if backlight bleed is something that really gets under your skin, this monitor or any curved monitor for that matter definitely isn't for you. I would give it 3/5 stars for how bad the backlight bleed is, but I just bought it and don't want to completely disregard how good the image quality and performance is, so if by the end of this week the backlight bleed still bothers me, I'll unfortunately have to return it. Great monitor if lots of backlight bleed is something you're used to. See below, backlight bleed both lights on and lights off. Granted it looks worse in these pictures than in person but it's still pretty bad in person.

I've had this monitor for almost a year now and it has looked and felt amazing the entire time. I've done several "monitor problem" tests, and this has passed them all. It displays a vibrant range of colors and looks good. It has lots of input ports which make it compatible with (almost) any device. It took me a bit of research to figure out how to adjust the brightness straight from my pc but I finally found Monotorian which I use now. The stand is weighted perfectly allowing you to move adjust the monitor easily. I have no blurring when playing games. Images are sharp and not blurry. Apologies for the blurry image, my camera is not good.

Got it when its on sale. It's been great so far. Fits my needs 144hz as my laptop. 2k res. Up from FHD I say its in the middle. I'll get something better later on like an OLED.

I've used a 1080p monitor for the last 10 years. This 1440p monitor looks tons better, it has all the features that I wanted in a new monitor.

My husband is gamer and recently had help building a PC and he loves the screen and has no issue thus far. I would definitely buy again.

Extremely wide screen with excellent picture quality. The display is easy to maneuver and adjust, including color and other settings. I just wish it had built-in audio.

Best monitor I owned 1440p, 120hz, and vrr for ps5 can’t beat it and the picture quality is great

Perfect for my gaming setup. Great visuals and image quality. Have had it for a year, no issues yet.

An amazing monitor overall. Ive had it for a little over 2 weeks and it has been great. The picture quality is fantastic for the fps.

Generally awesome monitor, really clean and nice OS, the only flaw might be its VRR can flicker pretty badly so i leave it off.

Very nice VA monitor. I didn’t notice the smudge or motion blur even I play shooting games.

This is a good monitor,if you sit up close and i sit 4ft away,rule of thumb is a arms length away.i much rather have a 32in monitor, i also couldnt get the colors dialed in,i got close to what i was use to but im not happy, also the stand is great cause its full rotate and adjustable

Love this monitor. Definitely worth it for the price for a 1440p monitor.

Perfect gaming monitor with stunning video quality i very much enjoy my curved gaming monitor every single day.

1440p! Love it, much better than what I had. Colors are so vivid and the darks are very dark.

Satisfying quality for console and PC! hope it will good in the long run.

Been using this monitor for about six months now no complaints highly recommend.

a great Monitor for the price would recommend it to anyone interested.

The Asus XG27WCS is one of Asus’s latest offerings in the budget/mid-price range that offers 1440p resolution, very high refresh rate, HDR, curved design for optimal viewing, three input methods, and lots more. My experience using the monitor was overall very positive although the number of inputs on the product listing is incorrect. Inputs: 1x HDMI 2.1 (Product Listing Says 2, which is not the case) 1x USB-C 3.2 1x DisplayPort 1.4 1x 3.5mm Headphone Jack In the Box: - Stand (Height, Tilt, Rotation + Threaded mount on top) - Monitor - Power Cable - Display Port Cable - Zipper Bag + Manuals Setup: Setup is very easy as with nearly every monitor. Just place the stand where you want it, and clip the monitor in. Cord management is as expected with a slot for everything to pass through. The top of the monitor stand has a threaded 1/4-20? Mount for accessories which is great for those that might stream or use a camera/light a lot. The base of the stand also has a phone slot which you can use horizontally for your other thin device. Also included is a zipper bag with the display port cable and a place to store other accessories. Usage: I first tried connecting the display via HDMI as this is what my previous monitor was using perfectly fine to achieve it’s 165hz refresh rate at 1440p. Unfortunately, I was unable to get anything more than 60hz out of this monitor using HDMI. No biggie, I switched to Display Port and everything immediately went to 1440p at 180hz. This monitor also has the option for USB-C input at maximum display settings. The buttons on the back of the monitor to adjust settings and use some of the gaming features are easy to use compared to other monitors out there. I like the fact it has a little joystick for navigation. The display itself has a nice picture with lots of customization depending on your use case or person preference. I really like the amount of presents available in the menu’s which allows easy switching between gaming and casual use. During my use I found no issues with gameplay or causal browsing. It’s snappy with just about as little lag as one could ask for. 1440p at 27” offers a good PPI of 108 which is the equivalent of a 1080p monitor of 20” is size. I find 27” is a great size for most use cases as 32” can be a little overwhelming only a couple feet from your face while smaller can be tough to feel immersed. Pros: - DisplayPort cable included - Good colors, brightness, resolution - 180hz refresh rate capable - Stand features/quality - HDMI, DP, USB-C inputs Cons: - HDMI limited to 60hz? Overall: I would certainly recommend this monitor to anyone looking for a somewhat inexpensive, curved, QHD gaming monitor. With tons of gaming features and a quality stand, it feels like a quality monitor. Despite my issues with HDMI, I find the number of inputs above average for the price with some monitors limiting you to two input methods so having three is great to see for a monitor of this price.
