ASUS VP28UQG 28 4K/UHD 3840x2160 1ms DP HDMI Adaptive Sync/FreeSync Eye Care Monitor

Pairs nice with ps 5 as a stand alone game center.

Easy set-up. Works great.

Ive had this monitor for a year and a week. You get what you pay for and Id like to divest myself of this one. The PC has an Intel Core i7-12700K and is using onboard graphics, which probably makes a difference here. Since opening this monitor, it has been a piece of hot junk. Pixels, sometimes individual, sometimes one row, sometimes 8 rows, act like theyre frozen and flash and change which rows are stuck. This isnt uncommon on a new 4k monitor to a much lesser extent, but it went away on my LG after a couple months and has only gotten worse on this thing with time. It has never ever recognized a displayport cable, always saying no signal, and Ive tried 3. In the last month, the screen started going black for 5 seconds at a time at random intervals. I might try a new HDMI cable to see if that solves anything, but I had really wanted to use the dp. The trick of power cycling the monitor with the cable in doesnt work. When I first opened it, HDMI 1 didnt really want to cooperate. I used HDMI 2 for a while until I tried switching ports to see if I could get the pixel insanity to stop, but they both produce the problem. I also rather hate that the thing has no options except to control brightness. It is super finicky to turn off. If you try to turn it off after the screen has gone into standby, you get back to the display selection and cant turn the monitor off from there. Honestly the monitor defaults to display selection when it gets overwhelmed. The comments about the narrow viewing angle are accurate. The thing is wildly fuzzy if you stand up and look down at it or are seated at too low an angle. It does have a decent tilt range for adjustment, but it isnt particularly sharp no matter what. Letters have a very noticeable halo always. There is a good chance that I am going to take the thing in to be recycled and buy a new one because no one deserves the torture of troubleshooting this piece of junk. Usually Asus monitors are fine, but avoid this like the plague for a pc.

Its a great deal for 4K and should work well as a game console monitor. But I got it to use as an external monitor for my Macbook with 4K picture quality, but the refresh rate of the connected Macbook is only 30, so I returned it!

Im guessing this is JUST for gamers because other than making most of my programs unusable until I adjusted the DPI setting in the program properties, I cant tell a bit of difference from my old 1080 monitor. Ive played a few 2160 movies on it and they look exactly the same as they do on the 1080 monitor. Exactly. I use a dual monitor setup and I can pull a film from one monitor to the other while its playing--dont see any advantage to the 4K. It was a waste of money for me. I wish Id stuck with two 1080s instead of trying to upgrade.

I bought this monitor specifically for my Xbox One X. I used to have a Benq monitor but crossed over to the ASUS and I’m pleased with it. The picture quality in my opinion is about an 8/10 ( I’m basing this off of playing COD WWII and random 4K YouTube videos . 1ms response time on a 4K gaming monitor is pretty amazing too. I’ve noticed better results in my gaming . If you’re ever playing an FPS game and you know you have the skill set to perform well and a good internet connection but people are still getting the jump on you then this will definitely remedy those issues . The only issue I’m having is that free-sync is grayed out and is not even able to be used . I feel if a product is marketing this as an option you should be able to use it. I also wish I would have kicked in the extra money to get the more adjustable version . I feel the monitor sits kind of low . It’s a good monitor and I would recommend if you’re on the fence

Overall Im happy with size of the monitor and quality for the price I paid. Id buy another

I researched and researched and researched for a monitor Id enjoy on my desk. I work long hours at my computer. I didnt want to send a lot but get a great monitor. I found it with this one! I am looking to by a second to add to my setup.

Overall, I am very pleased with the VP28UQG. 4k resolution, picture quality, input lag, and Freesync are all upgrades from my previous monitor. Unfortunately, I am among those who have experienced flickering. I have replaced the HDMI 2.0 cable and power cord but the monitor continues to randomly flicker. I am unsure whats causing it but I suspect it has something to do with Freesync. Thankfully, Amazon is sending an overnight replacement. Once after I test out the new VP28UQG I will update everyone. Edit: Sadly, I’m reducing from 4/5 stars to 2/5. I appreciate how quickly I recieved my replacement but unfortunately the second VP28UQG also exhibits the same flicker. A quick Google search or look through the reviews on Amazon can also confirm this. I cannot believe Asus still hasn’t fixed the problem that is likely caused by FreeSync. Anyways, I will be contacting Amazon tomorrow about a refund or hopefully a credit so that I can buy another model instead. Back to researching displays I go Edit 2: After further research, I feel 2/5 is unfair. I’m changing it to 4/5 because I believe it is only due to my circumstances needing FreeSync 2. As I mentioned before, it is a great monitor but for PC with AMD. With that said, anyone with an XboxOne X trying to utilize FreeSync I highly recommend any monitor that has FreeSync 2 (only like 4 on the market as of October 2018) or waiting until they release more.

It might just be that Im upgrading from a 1080p from 2010, but I am quite satisfied. Nice and dark, great response, good connectivity, and the control nub on the back is easier to use than I expected. Text (and everything else) nice and clear. As a bonus, it even has a much smaller stand than my older, smaller monitor, freeing up a good bit of desk space. I havent seen any of the mentioned issues, using an Nvidia GPU. I did have an issue where half the screen was solid black when I first turned it on. Turns out, this was an Nvidia issue, and a simple driver update fixed it.
