  • Nice monitor
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
I chose this monitor for my latest build due to it good color accuracy and picture quality as well as lower price. All reports indicate it is reliable. Some reviewers criticize the buttons and controls, but I found them intuitive and easy to use. I didn't really want audio capability in a monitor, but since I rarely use external audio anyway (headphones), it seemed like an acceptable trade-off compared to a more complicated external speaker setup. The audio is more than acceptable. I really like this monitor. ... show more

  • Definitely worth it!
Style: 27" QHD 170Hz G-SYNC
I bought this to go with my Skytech Nebula PC and so far the quality has been exceptional. There is a very quick response for gaming and it is very vibrant. The adjustable monitor angle is useful if you are thinking of buying a second monitor. Perfect size for a full field of view when sitting 2-3 feet away. ... show more

  • Absolutely Amazing
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
Coming from an old Dell P2417H (1080p 60fps) this upgrade was day and night. I regret to not have done this way earlier. The 180hz are soooo smooth, the colors look really good! and the screen is so sharp. The stand is really high quality too, a bit small, but it's enough for me, my sight is right to the center to the screen so it's perfect. ... show more

  • Great monitor with minor flaws
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
I bought this monitor to upgrade from another ASUS display that I bought 9 years ago (ASUS MX259H 25") which is still alive and kicking. First off the picture quality seems excellent. It has the low blue-light features that I need for work, and for gaming the response times are great, as is the picture quality (after a few adjustments). The step up from 1080p to 1440p is extremely noticeable. I've had no dead pixels, and noticed no light bleed. There is slight IPS glow (which is normal) but it is some of the least noticeable I've seen on any IPS display I've owned. Brightness maxes out at 250 nits, which may not be bright enough for a true HDR experience, but it's otherwise plenty in my opinion. I use this in a room with a lot of sunlight and have no issues. I'm pretty thrilled with the image quality. I used the VESA mounting holes to put this on a stand and had no issues whatsoever on that front. They were easily accessible. My main knocks on this display are that the stand lacks much in the way of adjustability (if you plan on using the included stand) and the OSD (on-screen display) for changing settings is a bit cumbersome. Everything is controlled by 4 buttons and a small joystick on the back of the right side of the monitor. It works well enough, but everything takes longer than it would if there were labeled buttons on the front of the screen, or even just some menu shortcuts. For example, what should be simple tasks like changing the speaker volume or switching HDMI inputs take clicking around far more in the menus than they should. That's all that keeps this from being a 5-star display for me. I got this on sale but even if I paid MSRP this would be a great display for the price. ... show more

  • Fast, bright, crisp, and well priced for a 2K monitor.
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
What a monitor. So, I wanted a higher DPI monitor for a while now and did a lot of comparison shopping. Asus, Acer, Dell, MSI, Samsung etc. all of them were fair game. So, here's why I chose this one. 1st price to resolution. Out of all the 2K monitors this one had the best price to resolution point. 2nd I wanted a high response rate as I do play games, and dang does this monitor deliver. 3rd i wanted a refresh rate that was at least 120Hz, this goes up to 170Hz? if you push it. I stick to 144 and never miss a beat so that extra overhead is nice to know it's there for whatever reason. The color gamut is great for everything I do, but I'm not a photographer or a photo editor so all I can say is, the colors look really nice and sharp with no washing out. The brightness is great. I've never gone to 100% brightness and it's perfectly lit in a normal interior situation no matter the time of day. It pretty much puts all my previous flat panel monitors to shame and has a lot of features that I may never use, but are "nice to haves". Really, it's a tremendous monitor and has just made me incredibly satisfied as buyer. ... show more
