Bought the premium VA panel version, 32 in 4k Used “Very good”, to save 100 dollars what a surprise!
I chose this monitor to be my first 4k 32 in monitor, and i am glad i did! I am a “tech guy” who is a casual gamer, on both PC and PS5.. and this monitor looks great from both devices.I am not a display “elitist” or anything like that.. but i will say, the display looks great, and the brightness is great as well.. i prefer the “cinema mode” preset.. it mounted easily onto my VESA mount, and the best part is.. I bought it used “very good”.. i am 99% sure this monitor was brand new and had not been set up before.. (im sure the box was the only thing that was worn and damaged, since that is the only thing i saw with some wear and tear).. other than that, all the cables and pieces were all properly packaged in its original wrapping and foam, and the monitor had its ASUS cardboard sticker on the upper right corner and side. perfect screen no damage, no dead pixels, etc..I recommend this device for anyone if you can grab it at under 500 bucks.. the quality and FPS looks awesome on PS5, i have never seen such a great FPS on a 4k monitor before and it is night and day difference in quality..

Awesome!
Coming from a 1440 screen, Wow!The games look completely new at 4K. My 4080 super and 13900ks(got one that works at 6100 and 5700 gaming full time averaging 42° with Artic Freezer 3 280 AIO) works smooth at 160hz… it’s Gsync compatible but don’t need it on-lol… This screen was great condition, no problems and much of peal-wrap still on, like new.It does have a bit of ips screen light bleed, in black caves or dark zombie tunnels, but 99.5% of gaming looks Unreal! Although my next screen will probably be a 240hz OLED, when the prices drop.

Impressive All-Around Performance
I purchased this monitor a little over a month ago and have been pleasantly surprised. This is the second screen from ASUS in my collection.I am a professional photographer who also loves gaming, and having multiple monitors on my desk just isn’t feasible, so I needed a one-for-all solution. The ROG XG32UQ has succeeded in every way. My primary specifications for this purchase required 4K (3840×2160) with HDR600, sRGB color accuracy, and Nvidia Nsync.HDR has just recently been a primary concern. Still, after gaming with this monitor, I see HDRs benefits–the pop of lighting from bright in-game light sources has a tangible effect and raises the realism quotient in a way that I can’t quite define.Anyone who engages in digital art, design, photography, or video will tell you that color accuracy is paramount when selecting a screen. I was willing to accept a trade-off between screen refresh rate and AdobeRGB and settle for sRGB accuracy. I could not be more pleased with the color performance of this panel–without even needing to employ a third-party hardware calibration tool, the XG32UQ is rock solid. Every image I generate looks the same in every aspect of Windows (browsers, file viewer, desktop) and appears on external devices (iPad, iPhone, etc.). This has dramatically reduced my time to generate photography. I can be confident that images appear how I intended.And lastly, I have been an avid gamer since the early ’80s. A monitor with a high screen refresh rate was my final requirement. The NSync integration has been rock solid, eliminating screen-tearing in fast-moving gaming scenes, especially in action titles such as Destiny 2.For the cost, this monitor has been an eye-opener. I only regret that I need more desk space to add a second.

a fair price for a beautiful display
It is my first gamer pc and I took the time to look for a monitor at a good cost and that offered good quality, after seeing a lot I stopped at this asus monitor since it has a good cup of soda. After using it I can say that it has a good brightness and that its 4k quality is incredible, I like how it hides the cables. The only thing I want from this monitor is that it can do vertical panning.

Frequent pixelated flicker occurs, and HDR doesn’t work. Returned after 20 days.
Edit: I have tried other monitors and confirmed – this problem is not me or my top notch RTX 4080 Super, CPU, RAM, etc. – the other monitors did not have this pixelated flicker, it’s just this one monitor. Again, I really wanted to love this monitor, it was great in many ways except for it’s non-functioning HDR and this flicker… the picture was so good I was even almost willing to overlook the non-functioning HDR.Original review:Would be an outstanding monitor, except for this intermittent pixelated flicker that occurs fairly often (see picture) ever since I originally set it up. The flicker varies in shape, size, and location, and lasts anywhere from half a second to 10 seconds, and it’s always something similar to that pictured above. HDR also does not work. These seem to be widespread and known problems with this monitor.It’s a shame – I gave it 20 days trying to convince myself it was okay (because the picture otherwise is great), and even cancelled previous return requests to attempt additional troubleshooting, but this is just too annoying and not worth the $600 I paid for a brand new monitor. Return submitted.

Great monitor so far
Got this monitor in on the 26th of December and so far every game I played on it is crisp and stands out, I have a 3070 graphics and a ps5, needless to say the picture is clear and vivid. Monitor has many options and the brightness is a little much when put on full for my opinion but when fine tuned it perfect. Not only is it great for games I am also a student I I tend to work a lot at home and so far so good. Text is clear as day so Iâm not straining my eyes to read and moving apps or windows between screens is effortless and does cause it to have an aneurism, second screen is a 75hz 1080p LG so big upgrade. Would definitely buy again. Will update later since I practically got the damn thing.

He conectado el monitor al ordenador tanto en Display Port como HDMI y no funciona, comprobado en otro ordenador de la casa y tampoco.Mucha marca ASUS pero me ha decepcionado tanto que creo que no compraré nada más de ASUS.¿Qué clase de control de calidad pasan estos productos , que no son nada baratos?Decepción total.
