ASUS 27” 1080P Curved Monitor (VA27VQSE) - Full HD, 75Hz, 1ms, Adaptive-Sync/FreeSync, Low Blue Light, Flicker Free, VESA Mountable, Frameless, HDMI, DisplayPort, HDR-10, Height Adjustable

For a $150 1080p 27 monitor, this gets a lot of things right. Just be aware that the motion sync feature can cause major eyestrain. Pros: Good color quality Sleek design with very thin bezels Matte coating that reduces reflections HDMI cable included Lots of OSD options (with configurable profiles) Freesync (reduces tearing in games) Motion sync backlight strobing. This is usually reserved for 144Hz+ gaming monitors, but it is here, albeit gimped. Cons: Non height-adjustable stand (passable for price) OSD can be clunky to switch profiles. For some reason, ASUS includes two shortcut buttons (default is brightness and blue light filter), but does not let you use those shortcuts to switch profiles. You can however use it to switch from different presets (with splendid), but not saved profiles. This seems like an oversight to me, because instead of just two clicks to change profiles, you have to do much closer to 4 clicks. I think ASUS should have at least given the option to use the shortcuts to switch profiles. Motion Sync is a nice addition, but not as good as actual 144Hz panel (as it should be), and it can cause eyestrain. I have attatched some images of (approximately) what it looks like when it is enabled, but note that the double images get worse near the top and bottom of the screen. The double images are pretty bad, but in games, I didnt notice it that much. However, I did get eyestrain after about 15 minutes of gaming with the mode enabled because of the inherent strobing, even after having the monitor for a few days and trying to adjust to the strobing. Overall, Im happy that ASUS included the option at all, but just know that the 1MS MPRT marketing point is only valid with motion sync on which has all the aforementioned problems. The lowered brightness of the mode doesnt bother me nearly as much as the eyestrain and double images though. If you want a gaming monitor with hardware that can drive it (next gen console, gaming computer), I highly recommend just spending a little more for a 144Hz monitor, as this is priced at $150. Conclusion: This monitor is great for normal use. Its okay for gaming, but at a $150 MSRP, Id recommend spending a bit more for a proper gaming monitor with actual 1MS response times and 144Hz refresh rates.

I bought two of these for using on a couple of camera systems and they worked great. Clear as a bell and a great price to match.

No built in speakers was the deal breaker for me. It only has a 3.5mm audio plug in for sound. Overall, really good monitor and still recommended if you have speakers or dont mind using your headphones alot.

Color and quality are good. I do have a pixel out at the top of my screen but other than that its nice.

I bought one of these to replace an old 24 inch and I was super excited when I hooked it up to HDMI. WOW the brilliance and fast loading. Liked it so much that I bought another one in the same brand to have 2 while working from home.

After about 1 year of use, it randomly started showing distorted noise. The monitor is on warranty, however, the warranty process is not straightforward. Ive encountered -Many webpages which failed to load -CSRs telling my my product does not exist (when it is actually registered) -No Global Warranty support, i have to first mail my monitor to the US to have it repaired then ship it back to me at home.

Just for my ps5 i love it. Since the day I got it till now it’s been amazing. Night or day the brightness is amazing. It’s a good buy

works great on a mac or pc. It does not come with a remote so little bit of a pain to set the monitor options. The speaker is not very loud. Bright monitor but I probably will buy a small tv next time.

Easy to install and configure, I have been using four of these monitors since last couple of months now, no issues, works perfectly.
