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

I bought the VG249Q to replace a defective Sceptre E255B-1658A. I originally only bought the Sceptre to replace a Asus VG279Q which was too large for my desktop setup. If I could have found the VG249Q a month ago I would have just gotten it. Its basically my old VG279Q with a smaller panel. Some cosmetic changes but otherwise identical. Same great IPS panel with great picture quality. I use it on my Xbox One X at 1080p@120hz with zero issues. Games look and run great. The adjustable stand is really nice as well. Only nitpick which doesnt really affect me it that it only has 1 hdmi input. Would be hard to gave multiple devices connected simultaneously.

but after I tried it diffidently worth buying it. ty ASUS no deadpixles no screen tearing I love it UPDATE: after two years I wont recommned it just buy another monitor with better colros picking washed up monitor colors just sad ppl are so obssesed with 1ms which never happen to be accurate ,

Very good for FPS games or Minecraft, I thought I scratched it once, but it healed itself in a few hours. Very high quality and crystal clear gameplay.

Very good monitor my son loves it

My wife has two of these monitors for her home computer setup, and she loves them. She uses them everyday for her home PC and work PC. They can be tilted all over, rotated, and raised or lowered. The base is very sturdy and steady. This is a great monitor, perfectly viable for looking at things and gaming! The one pitfall this monitor has is that the speakers are PATHETIC. Theres no depth to them (very tinny), and they dont get very loud. Im not sure how the people at ASUS thought this was appropriate, but their other monitors that Ive tried have similarly underpowered speakers.

I actually own 3 of these...two that work, one that is broken that I sent back for warranty service. The monitor was mounted on my stand when I purchased it and had not been moved from there until I turned it on and the display was scrambled. I sent it to ASUS (RMA USDAN50820) and, in about 4 days got an email from them saying it had been received. A few days after that I received an email stating that they had discovered scratches on the bezel indicating user damage. The repair estimate totaled $300. I ordered another one (for $269) and asked that the original be returned to me. It is in transit and I will update this with photos when it arrives. They did send photos of the damage which are in a pdf format and I cant upload them here. The photos are extremely blurry and show nothing helpful. I am not a gamer, in fact I am a Nurse and do most of my charting from home. I work only on call and need a comfortable to look at monitor to use on my dual display. I often have to have multiple programs open at one time and use the dual display to make this more efficient. I will not purchase anything more from this company until they make good on their promise. Would I recommend these to anyone else? Not anyone I liked. This is not the end...just the end for now. I will have no problems steering anyone away from Asus.

Everything on the monitor is great. I almost thought it was too good to be true for the price. However, I got a dead pixel. I even switched out my HDMI cable to see if it was that and it wasn’t. Please think before purchasing this monitor. Or you can take the risk. I am returning this for a refund.

I wanted a 144 Hz monitor because the main game I play is Call of Duty and 120 fps makes a big difference. Throughout the process of me looking into monitors, it was really annoying trying to find out if they actually could run 120 fps on the PS5. Obviously this varies game to game, but certain monitors just literally aren’t compatible for whatever reason. Can confirm that when you put the PS5 in performance mode, it will automatically enable 120 fps on games that support it. As far as the monitor itself, the IPS panel looks great for the most part and the actual build of it doesn’t feel cheap. Would 100% recommend if you’re looking for a good 1080p 144 Hz monitor.

PROS: -- No dead pixels on mine (this is the one thing I am wary about when it comes to ordering a monitor online) -- Perfect size for 1080p (high pixel density at this size) -- Brightness and contrast look great -- Lots of different settings in the menu -- Build quality seems solid CONS: -- Speakers sound ok, but not amazing; I personally use headphones so it doesnt matter to me -- Power button should ideally be right below the LED indicator, not half an inch to the left of it -- It looks like the border is only about 1/16 inch thick, but the usable part of the LED panel actually ends about 1/8 inch from the plastic frame, so if you are planning on running 2 of these side by side, be aware of that. You will have about 1/4 inch black border (including the frame part) on each side of the monitor. A minor point, but one that should be mentioned. As you can see, there really isnt much to complain about with this monitor. I set mine for 120 Hz (My current GPU cant run games at 144 frames per second anyway). Setup was easy. For a couple games I had to delete content of the games Settings folder in order to get the game to work with this monitor (namely Doom 2016 and RDR2) because those games stored settings from my previous monitor. Its hard to find a 1080P IPS that is this fast and has all these features in a small size. Most IPS 1080P monitors are 27 now, which is too large in my opinion. This is the perfect size for 1080P.
