Should I Buy It?
If image quality, detailed blacks, and HDR performance are your top priorities in a monitor, these reviews suggest that this series would be a great choice. However, if you value convenience features like intuitive controls, quick input swapping, and out-of-the-box readiness (i.e., including all necessary cables), you might want to weigh these considerations carefully. For gamers and productivity users not concerned with higher than 60Hz refresh rates or needing comprehensive connectivity out of the box, this monitor series offers compelling image quality advantages.
I've been using this monitor for over a year. I don't regret this purchase. It's a quality product. The monitor has brilliant colors and low power consumption. Due to its 27 "size, I was truly impressed with this 4K monitor. It is highly recommended for hours of gaming. Thank you, ASUS!!!

This is a great monitor for 4k gaming and everyday use. I tried using the Samsung Odyssey G7 but had to return it twice, once for clouding and excessive backlight bleed and the second time because it has horrible local diming problems that kept causes flickering issues. This monitor on the other hand hasn't given me any problems, It does have a bit of IPS glow, which is normal for these types of panels. I honestly don't really have any complaints about it, It has a variety of HDMI ports, which is awesome because it means I can plug in all of my consoles without having to buy an HDMI splitter. The picture quality is really clear and the colors are vibrant, I've tried it out on every console and pc, Both work flawlessly. It's fantastic with all the new gen consoles and definitely worth it if you want a reliable monitor. I just wish it was a bit cheaper, but these types of monitors are pretty expensive since it's new technology. Having it at 28 inches is perfect for me but I know most people would prefer a 32 inch 4k monitor.

This was my first 4k monitor and man where do I begin. The fact that it's so slow, I thought all 4k monitors were like this, turns out, after calling support after putting out with it for so long, turns out it's defective, and that a lot of people were saying this monitor sucks. Even in the comments. The monitor is so slow that even if it's the only monitor plugged in, it gets stuck in No Signal then turns off, even though it works if other monitors are placed. It's so slow it does not see the BIOS POST, it's ridiculous. In addition, it flickers when used with drawing programs. It turns off and on non-stop from time to time, or when the GPU is being used (while rendering and such and gaming.) This happened a while later after I was not able to fully return, this made me so mad that I spent about $1000 on this useless piece of junk. The monitor is so bad to the point where sometimes it just blurts out static noise from the speaker, you have to manually disable it from the settings. The monitor's colors are kinda off as well, my other monitors are more vibrant and red, this is yellow. It wakes up from sleep so slow to the point, all my windows get scaled down and small and scatter to my other monitors. The monitor is so bad to the point where, if you idle, or your computer goes to sleep, it shuts down, and you have to MANUALLY turn the damn monitor on by pressing the power button, sometimes several times, because it decides that there is no signal, mind you the cables are sturdy and they WORK, it is NOT a cable issue. Overall this piece of junk was the worst moneysink ever. I even sent it over to support, they told me to not use the original box, because it'll get lost, so I had to pay $55 for FedEx to get an uneven box to put the monitor in and fill it in with bubble wrap. Total waste of money. Then the RMA support comes and tells me there's physical damage, EVEN THOUGH I had to WRITE AND SUBMIT a damn report of WHAT'S WRONG with the damn defective unit, and they ignored it and told me there's physical damage on the screen, and it'll cost a whopping $460 to fix it, plus $20 shipping (I thought THEY were paying that) and plus $60 for labor... This was the worst monitor I've ever had, never ASUS again, worst experience, I've never seen a monitor so damn slow to the point it behaves like a toaster compared to other monitors and don't give me "oh it's 4k, it's slow" I'd expect MORE from a damn $1000 monitor. Don't waste your money on this garbage.

Upgraded this from a 24 inch from Asus and the quality/resolution is phenomenal!

Great monitor overall. Some monitor settings might be disabled or locked due to using a console system (PS5) compared to PC. Be very mindful some batches, or handling of item during shipment, screen may have DEAD PIXELS. Definitely turn on your monitor and inspect because mine came with a dead pixel near center of screen - took serious caution, time and safely installed my screen accordingly. With competitive gaming, it’s great to have the nice picture quality, response times and compatibility with Astro A50Xs but the dead pixel near the center is very obvious as I visually scan my screen for opponents or plays (CoD, Madden, strategy games). Great price but look for dead pixels and return due to it being around ~$350-400.

The media could not be loaded. Amazing monitor, my first 120fps monitor and it’s been great from the quality to pricing. I got a used one from Amazon for a very low price and to my surprise it was brand new only the packaging box was beat up. Most people return this screen because of its shadow feature. Some logos or words and sometimes just an empty screen depending on the game, will have a light shade for a sec or two to make the logo stand out and most think the monitor is broken but that’s just the HDR feature. I was using a 4k 24” LG for my gaming at 60hrz and when gran Turismo 7 came out with the update and changed to 120fps I decided to try it out Andy boy I’m I happy I did. The response time is truly amazing and the quality and details is very good for the almost half price I paid for.
