🚀 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.

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.

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.

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

Awesome monitor for the price. It is less now than when it first came out. VA panel video quality is way better than my other Asus Rog Swift PG24Q Gsync TN monitor. Response time and input lag is unnoticeable between the two. And Yes freesync works well with Nvidia gsync. I have an EVGA 1070ti and I get great 65 to 105 fps on all my new games with HDR. And it is a fantastic work monitor as well. No more two 22inch dual monitors setup for me. The build and quality is top of the line. I don’t know why others say it is cheap quality. They must have ordered a clone or knockoff. It has vibrant colors and contrast. Good features and the menu button is nice. But you can download the widget so you can change options by software. Gaming is an immersive experience. Can run on mid range GPUs unlike 4k monitors and even 49inch super ultra wides. I was thinking of waiting for the Samsung CRG9 to come out this summer but I also don’t t want to spend another 1200 dollars for an RTX 2080ti to be able to utilized a 1440p 49inch super ultra wide monitor. With this monitor I don't have to sacrifice e FPS and the picture and video quality is awesome for gaming anyways so it is as good as a1440p monitor. Overall a great monitor for work and for play and that will make your house guests go and say WOW!!

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.

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.

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.
