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

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!

Great picture quality, settings and options. Have been using for about 3-4 months now and have had close to no issues except one minor one. The issue I’ve been having very intermittently (doesn’t affect my game at all usually) is that the screen flickers every once in a while when using FreeSync. I’m assuming this is just because the Xbox and Monitor aren’t syncing frame rates but I’m not very technical with the FreeSync and monitor technologies. It does the job, and well for the price. The flickering isn’t a big issue (it doesn’t even happen every day and when it does it’s for like a few seconds only usually) This is a great monitor option for those looking for a cheap 4K, low response time monitor for console gaming.

They say it has HDMI and DP dual use, I used HDMI since I purchased it in May, worked fine. All of a sudden, last week it switched to 1080P only, and supports only answer is get DP, which my computer does not support. So no help from support at all, and no explanation of why it changed. Just replace HDMI with DP. So they are not very truthful about the dual support.

Only adjustable high is missing for this screen rest is perfect

This monitor works perfectly with my new iMac Mini and the picture is fantastic. It connected easily, recognized by my Mac easily, and the only knock is lack of instructions for an easy way to wake and to turn off and on the monitor. That button seems non sturdy. Only time will tell I guess. But so far, works as expected.

This is a good 4k monitor only if you play truly for competitive purposes, but youd be better off with buying a top tier 1080p monitor for the price. Purchased this based on my experience with an Asus 1080p monitor for my xbox one x, which was fantastic and still is. In a side by side of the same videos, its abundantly clear the color of this 4k model is sacrificed for the other spec, 1 ms response time. Even after tinkering with settings for a whole day the colors all looked washed out. I tried it on several games, warframe, destiny 2, forza horizon, and only on forza is looked decent for a 4k, but thats because forza looks fantastic on anything. It has a lot of settings for the display but not the ones that matter for adjusting how the colors look. The trace free setting if used just creates a black after image if you turn quickly or a movie adjusts too fast, and it doesnt support HDR. The vividpizel option is also inconsistent, it either blurs the details slightly or highlights everything with what seems like white borders, and the setting doesnt work between the different games I tried, i constantly had to to adjust it. Also calibrated my xboxs settings as well, for clarification. I really didnt want to return it. The colors put simply looked washed out, the colors on my 1080p monitor and my samsung s8 look way better. I spent a lot of time focusing on the visuals aspect because thats the entire reason to purchase a 4k display when it comes to something as small as a monitor. Onto the other aspects, the blue light filter is very good, no complaints, that is one of the selling points. Game plus option is cool, allows for fps counter, and a reticle for hip firing, among other options. A definite bonus to hardcore competitive players. Unlike the other reviews, the base was fine for me, I dont need much tilt adjustment, and the base wasnt wobbly at all, but i believe thats because people didnt actually tighten the base correctly. The screw the comes with it allows you to tighten it without a screwdriver, and when I did that, it was wobbly like the other reviews said. Tightening it with a tool fixed it. Menu button/control scheme seemed fine to me, easy to use, didnt travel or detect random directions like other reviews, but I only kept the monitor for a few days before returning. All in all, will be good for some hardcore players, but the sacrifice of colors and visual options in this display just isnt worth it for a 4k monitor.

I got the monitor to use with my MacBook Pro for work purposes, works great, a little delay and flickering when I plug the hdmi connector to my MacBook Pro but only for the first 5-10 seconds, probably just enabling the settings for the dual screen function so I don’t mind. Works great, very clear and easy on the eyes. can’t speak to its gaming useage since I don’t game with it but I have watched movies and it looks great. At $250 it’s a great buy imo.

Easy set-up. Works great.

I was nervous about ordering this monitor from this company because a few of the reviews weren’t very good. But my son worked part time to save the money and this was the monitor he really wanted. This was one of the only places that had it. So I crossed my fingers and ordered it. It came on time- a day early in fact. It was in perfect condition and he is very happy with it. It seems to be a great monitor for the price. So far we have had no issues at all. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

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.
