Great graphics and price, set up depends ….. 4.9 stars
I picked these 27 inch monitors up for about $166 each. Love the picture quality, but takes quite a longer for these to “boot up” than my older HP and LG monitors. My HP turned on as soon as my computer was powered on while the LG took about 5 seconds, these take around 20.I understand this is due to the type and quality of the displays, which are way superior to either of my older monitors, but it seems my system takes longer to get to the desktop with these monitors and that is a bit frustrating.However, having two matching monitors with awesome graphics, colors, and refresh rates is worth the wait. Both my older monitors ran at 60hz whereas these run at 165hz. My Hp was DVI and my LG HDMI, these run DP. I wonder if this could account for the longer load time? IDK.Next, the controls are on the back of the right edge of the monitor, which is cool, kind of. They are large so easy to get to and use, however, running 2 monitors butted up against each other makes it difficult to get to the controls of the left monitor. Which means you have to move the monitor to adjust it then you get to mess with the alignment of both monitors to get the screens realigned…… which is a real chore because….These monitors are hyper positional. They rotate, tilt, swivel, go up and down, pretty much any position or angle you want with great ease, which is great for getting them just right…… but can be a booger when trying to get two of them perfectly aligned. But once you get the set up perfect, they are sleek, sexy, and have gorgeous graphics, perfect in every way……… until you need to adjust the controls on that left monitor again…..All in all, great monitors for a great price would highly recommend. Just understand that setting up a dual, or more, monitor system can take extra time. But it is worth it in the end.

Perfect for PS4 & PS5
Brings both the PS4 and PS5 to life. PS5 really looks nice. I recommend this over TVPros. 1-The stand is robust, sturdy and durable. 2-Monitor swivels for different positions. . 3-Gaming controller is very responsive. 4-Lighting is brighter and realistic in game 5-Darker images are true black as should be. 6-Image quality is superior.Cons. 1-While in HDR mode some features are not available such as shadow boost. 2-Watching movies the lighting is very bright. 3-Will need to adjust picture quality. settings while watching movies. 4-Audio speakers are not the best. 5-Speakers have a sharp high pitched. sound without any tone. 6- Notice a slight headache trying to come on from the bright lighting while playing long sessions on certain games.

Best budget Monitor
I bought it back then for 125$ when it was on discount, the best decision ever. It runes very smoothly and has no issues at all. Ready to be set up with an HDMI cable and a cable for the graphics card. The only negative thing would be the monitor speakers, it may not be the greatest but its something at least. The model is (VG279QL1A)

Everything Seems Good so Far
I’ve only had for a short time but I have two and both turned our great so far. The question will be how long they last as I had a very old monitor which lasted over a decade previously.

Muy buena calidad del panel IPS
Empecemos con el packaging: (el motidor de la derecha en las fotos es un Samsung IPS 75hz)Personalmente elegi la opcion que el producto venga en dentro de un paquete cerrado de amazon:- La caja de amazon llego con 2 golpes uno contundente y otro menos marcado.- Esta caja fue abierta entiendo que en eduana para ver su contendo.- La caja del producto tenia otros 2 golpes 1 que seguia el primer patron de la caja de amazon el contundente y uno en otro lado.se nota que fue muy buena idea no solo dejar la caja del producto y agregar la caja de amazon ya que se nota que recibio un trato bruzco.El producto:- El producto cuenta con muy buen packaging por parte de ASUS cosa que se agradece mucho cuenta con una contencion bastante ancha de espuma compresa dentro de su caja impidiendo que algo se suelte lastimando el contenido o reciba algun golpe contundente. muy bien echo ASUS- El producto cuenta con su base por separado con su respectivo tornillo mas sus cables: 1 HDMI , 1 Displayport y su fuente de energia con su cable power norma EEUU- en su parte trasera cuenta con un pasa cables para un mejor manejo de cables.- cuenta con una muy buena calidad de imagen, colores y frecuencia de refresco.- contador de FPS nativo del monitor- Punto de mira para juegos FPS- Perfiles visuales para gnero de juegos (FPS,MOBA,RPG,etc)- Parlante Stereo (son basicos pero se agradece que esten)- La compra la hice de argentina y si a alguien le sirve le comparto la info: puede usar la tarjeta personal pay para amazon y las compras compras virtuales cuentan con un tope por operación de U$S 350 y un lÃmite mensual de U$S 799.99 y tambien paso la aduana sin que se pierda misteriosamente asique muy bien la verdad.- Logicamente se paga mas caro que con tarjeta de credito o dolar MEP pero comparto la info.Realmente estoy muy conforme con el producto, puedo recomendarlo para gente que quiera pasar de un monitor de 60hz o paneles VA o TN

Went bad after 3 months!
After 3 months of use started a chirping sound out of speakers and headphone port as seen in video. A month later after sending it out twice under warranty repair still same issue. Now I have to wait to see if they will replace it or refund my money since I will not send it out a 3rd time for repair. What a waste of time and money!

Una delicia comparar el viejo monitor con el actual, los colores son mucho mejores; en lo demás no sé cómo definir si las cosas son verdad o no, excepto en la frecuencia de actualización, que sà cumple con la velocidad declarada. Monitor de 1920Ã1080 de resolución, llega a los 143.85 Hz de actualización

La verdad es q no estoy nada decepcionado, me gustó mucho el monitor y ya con casi 1 año de uso siglo apreciando este, lo compre por 3500 si no mal recuerdo y valió cada centavo, la pantalla de 27 o 24 pulgadas Ami parecer es muy cómoda y verdaderamente no me gustarÃa tener algo más chiko jajaja, saludos

This is a high-quality gaming monitor. Excellent brightness and contrast. I even had to decrease the brightness to its minimum so as not to overstrain my eyes. The quality of image is also outstanding. High refresh rate up to 165 Hz (if the GPU does support it). Easily adjustable tilt and position both vertically and horizontally, just by hands, no screwdrivers needed. Nearly no reflective glare on its matte display. Built-in speakers of acceptable quality for everyday use. Robust stand. Cons: a bit heavier than many other similar monitors of the same size.

Excelente monitor, la imagen es impecable, resolución, los colores son sorprendentes en verdad aprovecha mucho el rango de salida de una de una consola. Solo mencionarÃa que antes de este monitor IPS tuve un VA por unos dÃas, hice el cambio ya que me informe que IPS era mejor tecnologÃa y pues creo que tiene sus pros y contras. IPS es mejor en el detalle, en color y diseño, definitivamente si sientes el upgrade, sin embargo creo me sentà mas cómodo los dÃas que jugué en el VA. jugué por horas y nunca sentà la vista cansada y con el IPS creo me estoy cansando la vista mas rápido. De ahà en fuera es una excelente opción este monitor.

Muy buena adquisición de mi monitor ASUS, estuve comparando con LG, Samsung y AOC, definitivamente me convenció más el ASUS, se puede girar hasta ponerlo en vertical muy útil para quienes programamos y utilizamos herramientas de monitoreo web. Tiene bocinas internas que no son para nada potentes pero se agradece la función para jugar un rato sin necesidad de conectar equipo externo de audio.
