  • Good but not great

Great monitor. The main reason for the purchase was that I work a lot with pdf documents and write a lot with Word. I have 3 monitors at work (2 at home) and they were all "landscape only". So when I displayed an entire page, it was too small to read easily (since page size was limited by monitor height). I had to constantly zoom in on part of the page to be able to read the text well (especially with Acrobat). In doing so, I can rotate it into portrait mode, which greatly increases the height…

Amazing vertical monitor setup with this one.

This was purchased as a workflow to improve the second screen for setting up my computer. As advertised, ASUS delivers fairly vivid colors and decent response times on all fronts. Having a display port was also a huge plus for my particular setup. The main reason I bought this was the amazing swivel stand that comes with it and allows you to use the monitor vertically. Basically, it helps me view lists more efficiently in Excel and view Reddit posts (among other things) on a long screen in…

Poor quality in my rating.

Used in the highest possible resolution, but still poor quality. There's even a dead pixel, which is surprising (I didn't expect this to happen with new monitors). The resolution is particularly poor when using zoom - it looks like a 1980s tube TV. Obviously the zoom quality isn't very good, but this monitor is way worse than my previous monitor. Wouldn't recommend it.

Just what I need, good for me.

After working from home for a full year, I found that my 15" laptop and 19" monitor were no longer working for me. I upgraded to this monitor and couldn't be happier. Great picture quality and I swear my headaches have subsided. Easy to install, well packaged and durable.

  • Almost everything is there

All in all, these monitors are very impressive: crisp lines, crisp colors, fast refresh that keeps movements smooth (despite 60Hz). For the money it's hard to find anything better in the same size. Pros: Clear screen with minimal glare thanks to the matte finish. Narrow bezels are ideal for triple screen applications. A response time of 4 ms ensures a smooth gaming experience. Solid color reproduction. Cons: Some on-screen glare is saved by neighboring monitors. Pull up the cable behind the…

27 " monitor for the price of a 24 "

I'm not sure what the prices will be in the future, but at the time of my purchase they were about the same as 24-inch monitors with similar specs and ratings. Easy to assemble and set up. I use it as my main monitor. so I can keep my laptop closed (to save space).

Great monitor but beware of quality control issues.

Pros: 0.31 point increments, suitable for elderly users with low vision. No backlight leaking. Good bright colors. It's a bit cold out of the box and can be adjusted using the monitor controls. No noticeable flickering of PWM. (Parents have sensitive eyes) Very thin bezels. Looks very modern. CONS: Poor quality control. (Read explanation below) Tin speakers. The output volume is very low. No USB ports. The semi-hidden on-screen controls are not very easy to use. No DVI connection. I was trying…

Great monitor for the price

A really great monitor for the price. I mainly use it for gaming on the PS4 and occasionally when I'm working from home. When playing on the Playstation it works very well, had to fiddle with the display settings a bit, but found a nice place. The 3.5mm out on the back is handy for consoles, I just connected a small soundbar to the monitor for audio. Overall a great monitor, especially for the price.

This thing is amazing!

This thing is amazing! I'm very happy with the quality and image quality not to mention that it has portrait capability which was a must have! I wasn't really looking for a gsync monitor or 1440p or 120hz. I was looking for something that offered great image quality and portrait capability at a reasonable price! I think 1440p is not suitable for a 27 inch monitor. I want at least 32 inches or more for it! I understand what kind of monitor this is and it must be excellent! Although you may want…

Great optics for older eyesight

This monitor is a replacement for a much older monitor and I am very happy with the results. After cataract surgery, the old monitor was very hard on my eyes, but the clarity of this ASUS monitor with its improved Quality of Vision feature puts less strain on my eyes.

Not a super duper tech nerd

I have 3 of these (I bought 2 earlier this year, and this one recently). Not the super duper tech geek type but they seem to work great for me! However I would recommend if you have more than 1 make sure you can use all the connectors of the same type. I first used this with a mix of DVI, HDMI > DVI because I didn't know my card had a 3rd DisplayPort (hell!). And for the life of me I couldn't bring myself to look exactly like the other two, let alone be as good (in my opinion) as they are…

The resolution is not suitable for digital design work

Disappointed with this monitor even at the best settings the resolution is not suitable for my digital design work. I love how easy it was to mount it on the wall, but overall I'm extremely disappointed with the image quality.
