ASUS TUF Gaming VG249Q 23.8” Monitor 144Hz Full HD (1920 x 1080) 1ms IPS ELMB FreeSync Eye Care DisplayPort HDMI D-Sub

Awesome picture. The difference between VA and TN is crazy. I love every inch of this monitor. I can’t believe the price is so low. No bad pixels nothing wrong at all. Except the audio input doesn’t output audio which kinda sucks. Other then that it’s amazing.

Weve bought these three times and my kids love them! They are one of the better monitors for the price. We tried others, but returned them and got another of this exact monitor. If youre gaming on a budget, this is your monitor.

Everything is perfect except the stuck pixel. When out of box it has a stuck pixel in center of screen. I replaced it and now it has a dead pixel on right bottom side. I will try one more replacemnet. If it still has dead or stuck pixel. I will get refund it try other product. Everything else is good. No ghosting, elmb, 144fps so smooth and love it.

Great for 144 hz 1080p on a budget. Free sync is underrated with this if you’re using an nvidia Gpu I feel no lag and no screen tear of course.

We have had this nearly 11months, and so far it is doing well. I like the fact that we can reduce the blue light and it is large and clear enough for us. But to be honest, we are not gamers; I bought it because of the reviews and a few other features, and I didnt want a camera in my monitor since if we need that we can use a laptop.

I bought this monitor because I wanted something to play games, with build-in speakers and height adj. PROs: - Really good stand. Sturdy with full moment. Very good ergonomically and it could become a really good secondary monitor in future. - Refresh rate good for a mid-range pc build - Nice colors and good brightness. - Blue light filter is awesome. Nothing really impressive but I love it. - VGA connector. It might be helpful for some. In my case makes me feel this is quite old monitor. CONs: - In my case has poor connectivity (only one HDMI and no USB connections) - Low volume speakers. I live in a place that during daytime is quite noisy and I have problems if I use monitor speakers (even at 100%). They sound quality is ok but the volume is low for me. I use it through the Display Port cable and audio in plug directly to my motherboard (bit better than the DP cable) but nothing really noticeable. Make sure you have the change the volume through the menu, which is different from the PC itself for some reason, because it has it at 50% by default. - No HDMI cable included. At least my box did not come with one. - Really hard to plug in cables (Power, HDMI and DP). Best way to do it is turn the monitor 90 degrees and plug everything you need otherwise you will struggle a lot. - Buttons at the bottom right corner and the menu are kind of unpleasant to navigate at the beginning. There is nothing to differentiate the power button to others (touching it), therefore I constantly turn the monitor off. Now I get why some monitors come with this little joystick at the back. - Dont understand MOBA mode. I play league from time to time, and I do not know why it would help to increase the red tones to the max. It looks horrible. If you reach this far, you might think it is a bad monitor but in general is a good choice. I believe the feature of this monitor is the stand. There are better choices for same or less money than this one. This Asus monitor does the job done but it does not excel at any and other features feel just gimmicky.

I would suggest you to rethink twice before purchasing the VG249Q: This is a $150 IPS monitor, advertised as $250 TUF gaming monitor product. It is the same picture quality and identical OSD as ASUS VP249QGR a $100 cheaper option with a worse stand. When the product was delivered, I was stunned with the quality of the build as previous reviewers had stated poor quality control with dead/stuck pixel issues as well as massive glow. I did not have this issues, however my main issues are how the colors look on this monitors, and its picture quality. First off, the colors looks odd, even when calibrated it feels like a shade of color filter is applied to the picture. The standard mode is Racing Mode which is weird since you can not adjust some of the settings in OSD, where as a typical standard mode can be fully calibrated (if you are looking to calibrate your own monitor you may think twice). The second thing you should know, is that the picture quality is blurry, and such mode such as sRGB and Racing prevents you from adjusting its sharpness. The vivid pixel makes the image looks sharp, however it is a bit pixelated even if it is at a minimum settings. IPS glow is expected in every IPS monitor. If you are into a competitive FPS game, you should know that this monitor is averaging around 8 GTG ms response time at a maximum trace free 100. My conclusion: This monitor is not worth the price. If you are on a budget and are looking for the same product get the VP249QGR or AOC 24G2 as they are much cheaper, and have the same Panda panel. As I said, the VP249QGR is the same monitor as VG249Q. All you need is a VESA mount which cost around $20. Meanwhile, there is the AOC 24G2 which has a bit faster GTG response time around 5-7 ms and wider color gamut. If you have a budget of $350 I recommend the VG259QM or MAG251RX which are 240hz and very fast IPS monitors.

I am missing screws no where in the description did it say I was getting a used second hand piece of junk

High hz and low price with an above average picture quality compared to other monitors this price range made me pick this one up. No complaints here. 5/5

Good picture quality, but the ports are in such a tight space its really hard to get the plugs into the monitor. The stand is in no way wide enough to support the monitor either, Ive had it nearly or completely tip over too many times already.
