Top Amazon Reviews

🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The monitor has been highly praised for its large screen and high resolution, making it excellent for work productivity, especially for tasks that require multiple screens at once like electrical design and autocad drafting. Users find it very useful for gaming as well, however, some users report that games that don't support 32:9 ratio require changing display resolution on Windows. The Picture-by-Picture (PBP) feature allowing simultaneous input from multiple sources has some issues, with some users even saying it does not work, and instructions for use are lacking.

Pros

  • 🖥 Large screen and high resolution improve work productivity.
  • 🎮 Suitable for gaming, more immersive with games supporting 32:9 ratio.
  • 💼 Excellent for multi-window tasks like electrical design and autocad drafting.
  • ⚖ Lightweight (21 lbs), making it easier to handle independently.

Cons

  • ⚡ Issues with Picture-by-Picture (PBP) feature.
  • ⛔ Instructions for use can be vague and general, not monitor-specific.
  • 👀 Can pick up glare of light behind the user.
  • 💻 For games that don't support 32:9 ratio, requires changing display resolution on Windows.

Should I Buy It?

If you need a monitor primarily for work that involves multitasking across multiple screens and occasional gaming, then this might be a good fit. However, if you specifically need a PBP feature that works flawlessly, you might want to find alternatives as this monitor appears to have some issues with it.


  • Life-Changing Monitor for Work
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
I almost never write reviews unless something is really bad, or really good. I’m not a gamer, and i won’t ever game on this at all, so I can’t speak to anything related to all the extra features or experience around that. I do a little programming, creative (no video work), and a lot of email, spreadsheets, and office-type work. I run a business and had a 2-monitor 24” set-up. They were cheap monitors I bought 4 years ago, and one of them died. It was a pain using the one monitor, so I started doing some research. Because I’m not a gamer, I don’t have some expensive rig or an amazing laptop. I’m running the Surface Laptop 3 through the Surface dock 2, and everything runs great. I wasn’t sure if this would work well or not, but so far, no issues. Going from a 2-monitor set-up to this is absolutely incredible. I was very skeptical at first, but the ergonomics and the continuous screen (you can split this monitor into 3 separate workspaces) is life-changing. My productivity has increased by 25% with this monitor, and it’s easy on the eyes (pun intended). It doesn’t have ambient RGB lighting or a 1440px vertical resolution, but I was coming from a 1080. There’s some slight ghosting with some text, but it doesn’t bother me at all. I think if I was coming from a 1440 to this, I might be disappointed, but I’m nothing less than ecstatic to have this in the office. The one thing that bugs me is that the stand isn’t symmetrical. Still haven’t gotten used to that yet. ... show more

  • A. Maz. ING! Best thing since the wireless mouse
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
I have to say I was hesitant to go quite this big with my monitor. I also was leaning towards the Samsung because all of my TV's are Samsung and I think very highly of their screens. I ultimately went with the ASUS because I have an all ROG set up. I am glad I did! This monitor is well built, looks GREAT, performs fantastic for gaming and was reasonable for the price point. I have had no issues with the 3840 x 1080, actually I think the response time in gaming is better. I did have to turn the brightness and contracts WAY down to avoid going blind. I also had to hang it on the wall to get it a bit further away from my baking retinas. Once I did.....nirvana! The asus app is great to use, the controls on the bottom of the monitor are really easy (even though critics complained about them I think they work really well). and the extra usb port in the bottom is the perfect place for a wireless keyboard / mouse dongle. I would HIGHLY recommend this monitor to anyone looking to go ultra wide and get rid of the bezel. Just don't play me in COD because I can see you, even if you can't see me.. LOL Thank you Asus for putting out a great product. SOLD ... show more

i ordered one of these monitors, got excited as one gets with new parts for a pc build them had it shattered when it arrived. it was pretty depressing but amazon did a fast sending of a new one and it arrived the same week. second one has worked great and no problems. no problems with the monitor itself but i noticed some games have yet to fully support this screens native resolution , namelly borderlands 3. gameplay works fine with wider field of view like one would want from a wide monitor while gaming, but the map doesnt fully work as the map and a few other screens in the game are non scrolling and cant be viewed forcing me to drop the game resolution to 1920x1080 or lower, just to interact fully . but thats not a fault with this monitor itself, i just wish the screens resolution was supported more with some games. but for normal activities this screens great and the extra features are novelty to me as i dont use most of them at all like the fps tracker,dot sight for shooters and blue screen filter. but im sure they would be nice additions to others as they do work. ... show more

  • Love it
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
Packaging: Packaging was nicely packaged, has a cut out on the side of box for easy removal to add the backbone of the stand making it easy to lift out of the box with one person. Installation: After the intial setup, it flawlessly connected much easier than the previous Asus monitors did which was likely a driver issue. This time connected and was up instantly. Gaming: Immersive! The target audience being a gaming pc, it delivers, amazing graffix in game using nvidia 1070 gpu, equally as important than the monitor its self from my experience using onboard graffix and less than effective graffic cards on any gaming monitor. Workstation: Having been in the IT field, I would not prefer this over other monitors for tasking that are intended for productivity. If you are some what of a tab/alt/arrow/windows key ninja it wont make much of a difference imo, im just loving the full screen without the 1" bezzel down the center...Its not a workstation directed pc, using for network topologies, putty and studying to videos is amazing to say the least, having no bezels in games and school is worth 5 stars to me. I wouldnt of chosen this for work after have seen other 49" monitors that are much more in cost. Overall: Im very impressed, using it with 2x28" asus monitors in tandem side by side on the second graffix card, they look great and have the monitors color, brightness. Contrast blend very well after messing with the monitor settings for awhile. Havent gotten into the software yet. Sound: They should stop adding speakers in high end monitors, not to be unreasonable, but removing a physical feature 99% of us dont care about, just makes the monitor heavier. Curious to know if anyone choses the speakers on a $900 monitor over $50 speakers from walmart that far outweigh the cheap speakers that come on expensive monitors. ... show more

  • Serious disappointment from ASUS
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
As an avid ASUS fan, it really pains me to have to write this review, but the ASUS ROG Strix XG49VQ is a mediocre product (at best) in a sea of otherwise stellar top-performance gaming monitors, peripherals, and devices from the ASUS Republic of Gamers brand. While my monitor did not have the noticeable physical defects that other reviewers reported having, I did notice a few big problems that are worthy of calling out: 1. This monitor is technically an HDR display, but it's on the lower end of the clinical definition of HDR, and you will notice some challenges in achieving your targeted brightness because the range just isn't there. This is an HDR4 display that masquerades as something more sophisticated, but most games today that really take advantage of HDR will benefit from HDR8 or HDR10. Given how dull the lows are and how blinding the brights are in HDR4, you're going to be better off playing without HDR on in this model. Finally, if you have HDR on, you can't adjust your GameDisplay settings - it has to be off to make those changes. 2. Low Resolution - This is a FHD vertical display (and think of it as two large 1080p monitors joined horizontally), which means that if you are used to gaming on 1440p or better, you're going to notice the downgrade. But given the size of this monitor at 49", you can actually see all of the pixels. This wouldn't be a huge deal, generally, but the monitor's rendering engine engages in some weird sharpening effects (that do not seem removable) that make the text look aliased, regardless of your AA settings. The SDR calibration of this device looks like an actual firmware or hardware implementation rather than something you can adjust. 3. Physical Imperfections. While my device did not have strict "defects," there was definitely LED backlight bleed that exacerbates some of the HDR dysfunction previously mentioned, and probably contributes to some of the SDR over-aliasing that renders games at 1080p really jagged. And other posters are correct that the plastic on this monitor feels cheap, rushed, and likely to break or chip with any typical wear-and-tear. 4. Non-Premium. ASUS is known for building gamer-centric devices, but there is a very spartan implementation for this monitor, with no AURA or LED lightning, and not even casing elements that are stylish or luxurious. Instead, just a plain, black monitor implementation. Also, there is an eye-sore of a promotion on the right side of the monitor's bezel "Designed and Made by ASUS in Taiwan" in silver lettering that is visible half-way across the room. Who wants to see that? By and large, this monitor is not a "bad" monitor - especially for people who have never experienced variable refreshrates (FreeSync 2 does work, but with NVIDIA cards expect a lot of flickering and incompatibility - so as of the writing of this review, it generally only applies to AMD cards), or for non-gamers looking for a productivity workspace - but the price-point at ~$900 really justified something better thought out and put together. I returned my monitor after just four days of use, when the physical imperfections, LED backlight bleed, HDR dysfunction, and SDR over-aliasing rendered the limitations of this glorified 1080p panel too much to bear. Best to save your money and go deeper for a 4K solution, or use one of ASUS' excellent 1440p 34" Curved Panels instead. ... show more

  • Looks like a billion bucks
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
I have a 2080ti, was upgrading from a triple 1080 monitor setup where i wanted to position this as the "curve" between the two. Honestly the field of vision is so wide I have to physically turn my head to focus on the other two monitors. I don't really even need them anymore but it all looks so cool together. As for performance I was able to get Gsync going and my games look/play great at full resolution with HDR and Vsync enabled. I mostly play Warframe and I was in complete disbelief the whole time. For the price I cannot believe the performance. My desk looks like I have a $10,000 setup. When people come over they gasp. My gripes are as follows: In HDR mode, text looks crunchy. I enable HDR mode in games but not in Windows. I don't know if this is a driver thing or what. If anyone has a fix for this let me know. And the controller is just totally whack and unpredictable. After you set it once you won't want to touch it again. There are two additional buttons near the joystick that almost make it tolerable but it's no LG control scheme. I ended up buying a 3rd party VESA swivel stand which cleared the entire space under the monitor for my headphone amp. The monitor is heavy but not too much. I'm impressed it only took a small power block, usb 3, and a single DP cable to power it. I thought I was going to have to connect multiple HDMI cables to it but nope! Overall it's the best monitor I've ever had, and completely puts my 60hz 4k LG OLED to shame for gaming. The color isn't as rich but for the price this is a steal. I'd buy two more but they'd be sticking off the sides of my desk. ... show more

  • Love this thing!!!
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
Before I get into the review, I had the Samsung Odyssey g9, which was supposed to be the top at the time. They are so sensitive I and to replace one right after getting it, and the other I had for about a year and a half and something barely hit the corner and the whole screen went out. For the money I was not impressed, never seemed to get it bright enough for the sun light coming in my side window, no speaker for $1400 and a few other things. Now to this one, I bought this as a replacement, read the reviews that my previous monitor was better. But personally, I like this one way better than the Odyssey g9. The screen on this too bright, I have to turn it down, even with the sunlight coming in the side. I like the ASUS Display widget that lets me put up the red dot when playing video games. I have seen no performance difference gaming between this and my previous other than when I set a game to us 144mhz, the screen color and brightness stay the same, for some reason when I would put 240 MHz on the other one, it would dim lower. Again, it's my opinion, but I have had both, so you can save yourself about half the money in buying this one, and you will not be disappointed. ... show more

  • Functionality review, not a product snob review
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
Simple as this, this monitor rocks and I push it to the limits with fast action and games that really play to the high refresh rates like racing games and ArmA 3. Some of the previous reviews are just product snobs about the fit and finish. To be honest when I'm playing a game I don't care what kind of plastic it is and I am not going to pay $4-500 more for a Samsung product that has only a better external finish. Without a doubt Samsung CH-90 is a nice monitor, but when the lights are off and I'm racing I don't care. I tested the Samsung and the biggest gripe I had was a ghosting effect at times on the outer edges with fast racing. Colors would bleed towards the outer 1/4 of the screen on both sides on the Samsung with action and the Asus does not. Clear picture through out even with fast action. FPS in full races would drop to 169-178FPS which if you don't know is important in a review. If you dip below the refresh rate for the monitor then you will encounter problems. With a 1080ti at max settings in iRacing and Assetto Corsa, the picture is dynamic and amazing. So if you want to listen to the 1star Product snob reviews who don't usually supply tech specs of what they are doing and some screenshot or single picture of their RPG low FPS game and call it crappy, who will you believe? Some person who decided to go and spend $500+ extra on a monitor just as capable because it had silver bezels and fanciness? I also use this monitor for work for 8-9hrs a day and the picture is great and has a great split screen feature i use with HDMI while using Display Port for gaming. One note most of the reviews won't tell you that states in the manual, to use Display Port and Not HDMI if you want refresh rates above 120hz. If you notice some of the reviews are done with HDMI capabilities and not Display Port as the flipping manual states to use. Anyhow have had this monitor since April and absolutely love it! Worth every penny compared to Samsung overpriced elitist CH90. ... show more
