🚀 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.

Style: 25" Fast IPS 310Hz FHD G-SYNC USB-C
Silky smooth and high quality! Not a single dead pixel and black uniformity is the best I've seen on the multiple 24 inch monitors I tried before this one. IPS glow wise the asus tuf 24 inch was terrible and had a bright spot and the koorui was ok but not as good as this one. Asus is very good with hdr support too. The koorui's HDR I returned was awful and there was no settings to adjust it. This one works great with my switch 2 HDR wise. Also the OSD and settings destroy the koorui, that one was extremely barebones but this monitor has tons of settings to adjust. ... show more

    • Excellent Non-RTX4090 Gaming PC Monitor choice
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
Review Image by Brian C. Brian C.
Computer Spec: AMD 5700X CPU, AMD 7900XT GPU, 32GB RAM, 3840x1080 @144Hz Why buy this: - Play games in Ultrawide with two little side edge partitions for Discord and watching Twitch. It's so clean. - 1080p resolution; If you don't have a RTX4090 you can't drive an Odyssey G9 DQHD at anything more than ~40fps on High Settings in most AAA games. Whose paying $1500 to play at 40fps? - You need two monitors and like the idea of one big workspace. It's INCREDIBLY impressive when you sit down in front of this monitor. Why you shouldn't buy this: - You have a RTX4090, you should buy the Samsung Odyssey G9 - You can't afford it - You're ok with 60+FPS; get a single 27/32" 2K panel. It's a couple more pixels (~900k) so you'll lose some FPS compared to UWHD but that's the trade. Notes: - Wondering how you break up this monster into 2/4/8 windows? Windows Powertools FancyZones. It's free, made by MS, and works well. - When I bought this monitor I had a NVidia 3080, which had the juice to run UWHD at ~90fps. This specific monitor HATES G-sync on, massive blue ghosting around anything moving. Turn G-Sync off, get screen tearing. I sold my 3080 and bought an AMD7900XT, god's gift. No tearing with Freesync, no ghosting with Freesync on. Final Thoughts: You should get this monitor. It's an absolute delight and doesn't need a $4,000 rig to push130fps average in Cyberpunk 2.0 on Ultra with R/T Off. I mean, you still need a $2,000 rig but that's PC gaming. ... show more

    • Amazing monitor!

I love this monitor! I use it mainly for work and can have three full size pages up at the same time and be productive. It is a game changer, and I won't be going back to non-wide screen in the future.

    • The one to beat
Style: 25" Fast IPS 310Hz FHD G-SYNC USB-C
Had this a few months and have really been impressed by the overall quality and at the time was wondering why I couldn't find reviews despite its list of top specs. Yes it has large plastic buttons to interface with on the back that feel a little cheap but there much better than joysticks that can break or even most dpads in my opinion. I was surprised to find very little backlight bleed for it being an IPS display. I was really set on OLED for the inky blacks but I couldn't really find much in the 24-27 range so I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did. For reference I was coming from the Alienware 34 ultrawide which has been great and works well for less competitive games but its so wide you don't have a great FOV. Yes I do miss using it sometimes when playing story based games (just played the dead space remake) but I play more FPS so the trade offs of using the smaller IPS panel is worth it. The biggest annoyance which is fairly small is on boot up, the panel displays in a very large red box which port your connected to right in the middle of the screen which blocks the windows password log in, I haven't been able to figure out if that can be turned off. It does of course disappears soon after but its kinda weird its so prominent. p.s. I also tried the Samsung G4 which goes on pretty good sales but I personally didn't care for it, lots of backlight bleed ... show more

    • Serious disappointment from ASUS
Style: 49" Curved FHD 21:9 144Hz Height Adjust
Review Image by Juan Gonzalez Juan Gonzalez

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
