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

I like that it has 1 DP and 2 HDMI ports. I have two laptops connected to it. I still have some problems with my new Dell XPS 15 7590 laptop on HDMI. The issue is, my laptop does not connect to the monitor on HDMI unless I force a reset by changing the refresh from 60HZ to 59. I have to go into the Display Settings, then the Advanced display settings for the monitors HDMI connection and change the refresh rate several times. I havent had this issue with the DP connection. I dont know if the issue is the laptop or the monitor. It is hard finding information. I thought it may be driver issues, but theyve been updated. I mainly use the laptop for huge spreadsheets or Visio drawings from one laptop, or YouTube and games on the other. I dont use any audio, just video and the monitor has been great.

This monitor is great. Ive had it about 10 months now and just thought I would leave a review... When I first unboxed it I thought it was way to big for a monitor. I upgraded from a 22 and let me just say.. this is perfect! Not super massive, but definitely not small. Perfect for sitting a foot or so away.. you can see everything in shooter games. I play a lot of shooters (Destiny, PUBG, CoD), and I swear I can see the entire screen without moving my eyes at all. Works great with my PS4 Pro and PC. Only downside is the base. You can only move it up and down, no side to side. Still for the price, its amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Turns out there are actually 2 sizes of monitor considered 4k. One is true 4K, and this monitor is the other one, slightly less vertical resolution than true 4k. Be aware that, if you have your statusbar.on the bottom of you screen, it will actually be off screen. Your cursor is a little hard to mouse over the icons when you cant actually see them. I moved my status bar, but it collides with other mouse over features on the other edges. A little frustrating.

The monitor has been working well for about a year, the display looks good, but I’m not playing games or editing photos so I’m not a good source for a critical review. What I find annoying is the screen saver. I’ve been unable to find any way to change the period before it goes to sleep or to disable it. You have to push a button on the back of the monitor to wake it up. If it’s in sleep mode and you want to turn it off, you have to push the button, wait for it to wake up, and then slide button to turn it off. LAME!

THEY LITERALLY LIE ABOUT THE SCREEN SIZE its only 26in the screen itself is 25 Everything about this monitor is really great except for the shadows. Dark colors just simply arent dark enough. Like for some reason all of the black on the monitor is washed up and not as black as it should be. You can see from my pictures the first is from my original 1080p monitor that came with my laptop and you can see that the shadowing looks like shadows. And then on the Asus monitor the shadowing is almost non-existent. Everything else about this monitor is better than my old monitor except for the shadowing. Aside from that its a great monitor but because of that I dont know if Ill be keeping it. And it doesnt seem like any amount of playing around with the settings on the monitor change anything.

Its a beautiful 4K monitor and a decent bargain. There are two tiny flaws. One flaw is that it sometimes doesnt wake up when the computer does and you have to do something to the little joystick control on the back to force it to wake. Which leads to the second tiny flaw, the little joystick control on the back. Other companies who make monitors have figured this out and have implemented a series of buttons, especially a dedicated and simple on/off button. Using the little joystick on the back to both turn the monitor on and off as well as navigate through the various menus is anti-intuitive and cumbersome, and the joystick is overly-sensitive to what direction youre pushing it. If you push it in even the slightest wrong direction youre suddenly selecting something you dont want. And sometimes, even when pushing it in the correct direction, you still somehow end up selecting an option you didnt want. For me, the quality of the image and price outweigh these two tiny flaws. And, Im sure Ill get better at the joystick the more I use it. I hope.

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