[Employee of bestbuy] Excellent Picture Quality. High refresh rate. Deep blacks. You really can't go wrong with this monitor.

One of the worst monitors I have ever purchased and THE worst OLED I have ever owned. I will start with the good. SDR is fine, it has some black crush but it really is MUCH better than HDR (which I will get to) The monitor has a very good refresh rate and is very good for competitive gaming, if that’s your thing. The OLED care is nice, should be pretty difficult to get burn in on this monitor thanks to all the features that help prevent it. Now on to why I gave it such a low score…The HDR, I have no clue if I just got very unlucky or whatever but the blacks in HDR take a massive hit. The way this monitor handles blacks is horrible, it’s tough to explain it but you will notice a big difference in how SDR handles blacks compared to HDR. The quality takes a big hit especially when there’s fog in a game or you are using a flashlight. Then, there’s the colors. The colors there is no middle ground when it comes to the colors in HDR, you are either getting very saturated colors or dull colors and the difference between the two is literally 10 points which, is one button press between the two because the settings only go up and down by increments of 10…. HDR locks a ridiculous amount of features to customize things to your liking so you are mostly at the mercy of what’s available to you and there is not a lot. The monitor does NOT have hdmi 2.0 meaning if you want this for your console, it cannot do 4k 120hz and instead swaps the resolution down to 1080p. Overall, this monitor should be considered at the very lower end of OLED’s in terms of quality. Way too overpriced for the amount of negatives I have encountered. Please consider buying a different monitor. I wish I had…..

So far I love this monitor. I got it for a good price. I do my best to baby it, but I don't over-do it. Its strengths are how it looks, its affordability, and its 240hz refresh rate. Its cons are its technologies. Variable refresh rate on this thing will flicker, prominently. Enabling its included anti flicker will scale things oddly. There's no good middle ground. Other than that though, its a great monitor.

Good Color and dark blacks, 240hz is a game changer runs smooth with my 5070

One of the best monitors ive ever owned. Blacks are inky black, the refreshed rate is perfect, and the colors really pop. Love this monitor

[Employee of bestbuy] AMAZING MONITOR, MUCH WOW. Display is basically the best on the market for the money. Display could be better with its peak brightness, but for competitive games, this is perfect and more than good enough for single-player games. This is in part due to the high resolution and reltively nice colors. Display has amazing motion clarity due to being an OLED and being a 240Hz monitor. I loved this monitor so much i purchased two and then another for my wife. I would recommend to anyone looking for a do it all monitor.

This is my 1st dive into oled gaming minitors. That said, Im not unfamiliar with the technology. The screen is extremely impressive, especially at the discount price I purchased it. Blacks are inky, refresh rate is very smooth. I did have trouble getting my computer to recognize it as an HDR display. It was not any fault of the display. I was running it on a rog gaming laptop and you have to set output to secondary display only and that fixed the issue. Extremely pleased. Hopefully the anti burn innfesture is effective. Only time will tell.

The color, contrast, and general picture on this monitor is great. The only real downside is glare. In a bright room with natural light it is very noticable but still playable; howeve, in a dim or dark room this monitor is absolutely stunning.

This monitor is exactly what I was looking for to use in gaming. This is also my first OLED, and I’ve been using it as my main monitor for 2 months now. The monitor works great out of the box, but to get the best possible experience you do need to tune it to your use case. It will also help set up the monitor to be awesome in your environment/room. There’s plenty of forums and discussion/guides on RTINGS, which I used to figure out what I liked. For example, I wanted to keep my taskbar visible so I compromised and increased the frequency of the pixel cleaning setting to reduce the chance of it burning in. I also turned off VRR because I like to limit frame rates to a stable number on games anyway, and therefore haven’t dealt with a single instance of VRR flicker, ever.

The monitor looks amazing is incredibly responsive and the only issue is hdr colors are slightly faded when using it on pc but on console it looks good so im gonna assume its a windows issue

I am not a very tech person. However, I will say the quality compared to my old desktop monitor is surreal. This monitor provides up to 240hz which looks great on gaming. Make sure to check PC specs beforehand. Other than that this is a great monitor to purchase.

I have had it for about 3 weeks now. So far so good. Display is truly beautiful. I had a ips 34in curved 144hz screen. Its a good monitor, but this Asus blows it out of the water when it comes to visual. Easy to set up. Had to make my CPU understand it was a 240hz, but once that setting was changed, everything synced up nicely and HDR kicked on. Really no complaints yet. I did have to firmware update the monitor. It was a fairly easy prcoess and it did fix an issue that would make texts look hazy. Once updated the problem went away completely. Kind of weird to be updating monitors, just the technology age we live in. Easy to install on monitor Arm, fairly light weight.

Pretty good product. The screen is very resolved. Great refresh rate, very smooth. The picture quality is vibrant, the colors are beautifully saturated. Overall great product

I've been using this monitor for about a month now, and overall, I'm quite impressed. The colors are vibrant and offer a rich viewing experience, although it does require some calibration straight out of the box to achieve the best results. The deep blacks are particularly striking, adding depth to images and videos. Additionally, the build quality feels sturdy and durable, giving me confidence in its longevity.

I upgraded from an Alienware, 1080P to 240 Hz. To this 2K 240 Hz and I love it. It's the best move I made in a while. I just wish I was able to afford the 4K one.

Great monitor . Great colors hdr could use a little tweaking but overall worthit if youve never owned a oled
Valsharess Posted
Bought this monitor because it was a glossy oled and had good reviews. Was worried because I heard that it might have a problem with black crush. Well i got the monitor updated to the latest firmware and drivers and yay absolutely no black crush at all. Very vibrant colors and deep blacks. The text is not as sharp as with my old ips but it got better after i turned off cleartype in windows. Really happy with this monitor.

Great monitor. Colors are great. The 240hz is great for 1440p gaming.

beautiful picture, but suffers from washed out over brightness at times, especially with HDR content. Noticed has a problem rendering shadows properly. This is important in gaming. Makes shadows pitch black instead of a gradual shading into black. Hard to see someone hiding in a corner without boosting up brightness like crazy wh.ich then washes out the image Compared side by side with the QD-OLED XG27ACDNG, and mostly looked similar except the QD-OLED has brighter more vibrant colors in certain scenes. It also does not suffer from poor HDR. HDR looks great on the QD-OLED I wanted to buy into the WOLED hype, but the QD-OLED simply looked better with color and provided better black level/shadow drawing capabilities.

Gorgeous display. Remember to go into your PC display settings to turn up the refresh rate.
