This monitor couldn’t have been more perfect for my work, and for what I was shopping for. Colors are really accurate, there’s plenty of features to adjust values to help calibrate it. the materials are quality, and brightness is more than sufficient. I often game as well on it and hardly had any issues, maybe in a few games where frame-rate is important, but I play more for high graphics settings rather than high frame rates. A great value.

I liked the older, smaller TN computer monitors, that had good contrast at low brightness so you could comfortably read black text on a white background. I've tried IPS monitors before that were clearly just cheap glossy TV panels, way too much brightness and saturation, no contrast, and horrible smudges from backlight bleed covering half the screen. Computer monitors are supposed to be better than TVs. Also, once you get past 24" or so, 1080 is way too blurry up close.This one is excellent, exactly what I was looking for. It's still bright enough to be used as a TV if that's what you want, but with the brightness turned down it works as a real computer monitor with excellent color and good contrast, the kind you would use at a desk with a mouse and keyboard. The screen is very consistent, with no visible glow or bleeding from the edges, even when the screen is black. The stand is impressive, very simple to put together, very easy to adjust but also very stable.They're probably overselling this a little bit for high-end professional work, 100% sRGB (with the brightness turned all the way down) isn't actually that impressive, but I don't care what they call it as long as I can get a good quality, general purpose monitor at a decent price.

A review from over a year of owning this: I got this to do art and occasionally play games. Refresh rate is great, especially when gaming or editing 60fps videos. Screen is the perfect size for my desk and I love that I can extend it and use it when I’m standing. Color is excellent and I appreciate the ability to check real life dimensions from within the screen. I have no dead pixels and I’ve been using it for over a year with no issue. While the brightness is adjustable and can go pretty high, there’s a bit of screen burn-in (that fades given time) which is to be expected. I generally keep to the default sRGB and lower brightness to avoid this because it can mess with color appearances which isn’t ideal for art. The only major downside of this is that the speakers are really poor quality. I got some cheap, 20+ year old external speakers to plug in because it really was that bad and the cheap external speakers are significantly better. If you are editing videos with audio or like to listen to music while you work, you’ll need headphones or speakers. I’d almost rather this monitor didn’t come with built in speakers as it feels like such a waste for something so poor quality. But I suppose if you just need something to hear alerts or notification sounds, it could be just what you need.Overall, I’m a very happy digital artist with this monitor!

I purchased this for a Mac mini M2 I had just purchased, based on it appearing on several reviews that listed this monitor as existing in the sweet spot between affordability and quality. Of course, I'm sure it's not as sharp or takes as full advantage of the mini's picture quality like Apple's recommended Mac Studio Display, but the Mac Studio's $1599 price tag would've made irrelevant the reason I bought the Mac mini in the first place vs. an iMac, which was my previous computer of choice since 2009. So accepting that, I am very satisfied with this monitor. However, having only owned all-in-one packages like the iMac in the past, it was a bit of a learning curve in adapting to a separate computer monitor.I'm still playing with the picture quality/resolution, brightness and blue light levels to find the right balance—I will say that the monitor is certainly plenty bright. I keep brightness nearly at the lowest level! The adjustment in height and tilt (let alone vertical rotation) are terrific features.I also purchased this for the additional USB ports, so it acts as a USB hub too for peripherals. Note that in order for the USB hubs to work, you have to plug the USB 3.0 square connector cable into the monitor and the regular USB connector on the other end into the mini! At first I thought it was just an additional cable as an alternative to the HDMI cable (also provided!), but it turns out that this cable is what powers the USB hubs/ports on the monitor, so be sure to use and connect it! The paper instructions are all visual, no words, so it wasn't clear to me that this cable was essential, but after about 10 minutes of fiddling and googling to see why the ports might not be working, I figured it out. Hopefully, this observation will save some people a bit of grief lol. Fortunately, my existing hub for my peripherals (scanner, external drives) worked fine, but it's nice having these additional ports to charge/connect my iPhone and other occasional peripherals I use. It's saved me for now from having to buy a USB hub I was contemplating for the mini to give me more ports.I should add that I read that connecting the mini purely via HDMI didn't take full advantage of the mini's graphics card, so in advance of the delivery of both the mini and the monitor, I purchased a USB C to HDMI adaptor.The only "drawback" (which is not on ASUS, more on the user if you opt for the Mac mini) is that it doesn't have a built in video camera. Who knew that I'd need one so soon after purchasing the new system lol? So I have just purchased a cheap one off Amazon that should solve that problem.Anyway, very pleased with this product.

I've been using this monitor for 2 years and it's still working and displaying as well as when I purchased it. The colors display accurately for previewing print work. It's very bright. I only need to use 50% brightness.
