    This was a huge upgrade from my samsung 24in wide monitor that was a hand me down. I love the quality, settings and the gaming mode along with the built in speakers which the BB salesguy told me it didnt have. I get easy 120fps. Got it on sale at a price i was happy with. I looked everywhere and did my research on about 50 monitors before i got this one. Did need a little tweaking out of box but nothing major. This was a great buy.

    At the price point you can not ask for a better product. The speakers are great the screen does not flicker the refresh rate is awesome. I have had a great time using this.

    So far I have no complaints about this monitor. I replaced two of my older acer monitors for this one as I regularly game and easily tell a difference in quality. Built in speakers are great too when I need to give my ears a rest, though they are not ideal for directional noise

    The image quality is great, standard options/settings are easy to use and set. I really enjoy the analog on the back used to toggle around in the menu. I didn't even know it had speakers until I set it up, so BONUS. They sound really good although i haven't gotten the volume past 50/100

    The built in speakers are great! The response rate is perfect on all my games and the display has a good color contrast to make it pop. The only feature it is missing is the ability to raise and lower the entire display. I really enjoyed that with my last monitor but settled for this one because of the great price and built in speakers. Highly recommend.

    Built in speakers are good have if you are not using head phones. I felt it it should have more sharpness in pictures or sure options are are there to improve it.

    Ok so this was my first time buying a monitor. I got the 27” Tuf gaming asus vg279q1a. I also just bought a PS5 to play on it. I was super nervous i wouldn’t be able to get 120hz on my monitor.. But i can easily no problem!! Who ever says you cant is honestly just flat wrong. You have to turn on the 120hz on your PS5 settings, along with your game settings. Some games just dont support 120hz so you could run in to that problem. But this monitor is well worth every penny. The picture is stunning on this thing. It also has speakers, they arent top notch but most monitors dont come with any so this was a plus for me. So anybody who is skeptical or scared to get this DONT BE. YOU GET 120HZ AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY!! Hope this helps someone bc it would have helped me
