    • Excellent Semi-Budget 1440p 155hz Monitor
Style: 27" QHD 165Hz G-SYNC
Ordered VG27AQ a few weeks prior and have had zero issues with the screen so far after initial calibration/setup. Zero dead/stuck/bright pixels, lucky! For an IPS screen, it's great to look at (and extremely bright, you can use the monitor at 0 brightness and still see the picture quite well- most of the calibration profiles I've seen leave it at 0). You can see it from all angles very clearly and even from far back. I sit relatively close to the screen with my desk setup, but it's exactly what I wanted as I can only have one monitor on the desk. I have only noticed a little bit of backlight bleed in the lower right corner, but it's a very small area and overall quite acceptable for an IPS screen with such a thin bezel. Have not noticed any IPS glow when sitting dead center or even slightly off (as a note, there is always variation with manufacturing, so some monitors might have either more than mine). I have used it to play both PC and Switch, and it works great for both, no complaints (the speakers are indeed a little weak, but they are only 2 watt and more for function than real use and at least it has speakers to do so). The only unfortunate part in my temporary setup is that the MSI laptop I'm using (GS65 Stealth with RTX 2060) combined I suggest/recommend expecting to just use fullscreen settings with games on the Asus (I suspect it's more the laptop than the screen, once I build my new desktop I will confirm if this is still the case with a desktop 1070). The refresh rate is excellent, one of my older screens is an old 1080p Dell VA panel from around 2014 and the refresh rate is around 7ms so I would sometimes miss quick reaction mechanics in some games despite the nice screen quality otherwise with what it offered. I had zero build quality issues on my Asus, everything in the box looked to be in order and all included hardware was perfect and complete. For the price and what the monitor brings, it is definitely a good value as long as there aren't any pixel or manufacturing issues. There are better monitors with picture quality, but usually those are VA panels which have their own set of characteristics and a 3 year warranty (the comparable LG 27GL850 only has a 1 year warranty which is short when compared to their competitors like Asus and Acer). ... show more

    • TUF IPS Panel Colors are very vivid and vibrant, better than Acer IPS 27 versions.
Style: 27" QHD 165Hz G-SYNC
What I like: 1- TUF IPS Panel Colors are very vivid and vibrant, better than Acer IPS 27 versions. 2 - Very good refresh rates, briefly ran AAA games, and frame rates are stable. 3 - Built in Speakers are adequate, not great 4 - Built quality superior to Acer with height, tilt, and swivel stand. Acer only tilts and swivels, not height adjustments. 5 - Abundant HDMI and DP ports with included cables. What I don't like: 1 - Speakers are ok, given the price. Some instances. I find that my Acer monitor speakers perform better. 2 - Monitor stands is good, but not as modern-looking as some of the other competitive models. 3 - Does not come in other colors, white or red. Tired of all black peripherals. 4 - Price could be more competitive, but you pay a premium for higher refresh rates with better than VA panels. ... show more

    • Change your refresh rate in your settings!
Style: 27" QHD 165Hz G-SYNC
Amazing monitor, the colors are really nice, and the vesa mount is extremely easy to use for either the regular mount or another one. The settings are all very nice and the monitor is well made, and if you don't like tinkering with settings it's great plug in play as well.

    • Awesome 2k monitor
Style: 27" QHD 165Hz G-SYNC
Review Image by felipe Silva Rodrigues
I’ve been using this ASUS 27-inch 2K monitor for a while now, and I’m really impressed. The picture is super sharp, and the colors look vibrant without feeling over-saturated. The thin bezels make it look clean and modern on my desk, and it doesn’t take up too much space. Games feel smooth and responsive, with no noticeable lag or blurring. Honestly, it’s been great for both work and gaming, and I feel like I got my money’s worth. ... show more

    • ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ
Style: 27" QHD 165Hz G-SYNC
This monitor has some decent specifications for the price, particularly G-Sync compatibility, low response time and 2560x1440 resolution. The picture quality is really good. I haven't had a chance to check its color accuracy but per one technical reviewer the monitor has pretty good color accuracy out of the box. I activated G-Sync on the panel and G-Sync in the Nvidia control panel and all appears to be working as advertised in that regard. I was unable to notice any increase in input lag or response time. The monitors menu shows the refresh rate and I noticed the value changing while gaming. The value matched the in-game FPS counter. Everything while gaming appeared to be smooth, without any noticeable lag, ghosting, screen tearing, etc. With overclocking "on" in the menu, I was able to change the refresh rate to 165Hz in the Nvidia Control Panel. The thin bezel looks really nice. The stand is of better build quality than other monitor stands I've had. I'm coming from an ASUS PB278Q, which is still sold here on Amazon. That is still a great IPS monitor, even after 6 years of regular use and ownership. This monitor looks pretty cool compared to that older monitor, but I'm only referring to the panel enclosure. I have these two monitors side by side at the moment and I'm surprised to say the image quality including screen brightness, uniformity and color accuracy (sRGB mode) are practically identical between the VG27AQ and the PG278Q. I was really surprised after 6 years of use. This comparison was by no means a technical review. It was just a quick observation (the monitors are connected to two different desktops). I'm sure more rigorous testing would reveal some major differences. Lastly, regarding the power supply. It appears the power supply is external for the VG27AQ. I prefer to have the power supply built into the monitor and then deal with a simple universal power cable like on the PG278Q. HDR10 seems gimmicky. I actually thought the picture quality was better with HDR10 turned off in Windows 10. With HDR switched to "on" in Windows 10 "Display settings", the colors and brightness on the desktop were worse. I messed around with the slider and then tried Battlefield V. I was not blown away by the difference. I'll do some more experimenting with this in the future. I'm sure this feature will be more useful as games and Windows 10 adapts to more monitors being HDR capable. Right now though, the feature is not what I expected. In summary, this panel is an excellent option for someone really wanting an IPS monitor with G-Sync compatibility. When shopping for a monitor, I wouldn't pay too much attention to response times and other gimmicky features. I would focus on build quality, screen type (IPS vs VA vs TN), resolution and size. This monitor checked all the appropriate boxes for me and was priced below other ASUS monitors with similar features. Would I buy it again? I probably would if it was on sale! ... show more
