5 out of 5 eggsASUS monitors are the best

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Monitor for the price!

Pros: Vivid and bright color, Large Screen. A lot of monitor for the price.

I had originally considered an ultra-wide but decided to give this a try before dumping $1K into a single monitor. Glad I did! This monitor is large and helps if you have a difficult time seeing (monitor far away on the desk?) I would not hesitate purchasing another if needed.

Cons: None comes to mind.

2 out of 5 eggsBurned pixel ftw

Pros: Price / spec is amazing, really good value, amazing for gaming and every day work

if they don't break........

Cons: Bought two of those less than 6 months ago. Left green already has a green burned pixel, right screen has a red burned pixel....

Other Thoughts: Consider buying with full protection that cover return shipping because they are crazy expensive to send back, which... at the end of day, means that you will probably stuck with burned pixel like me :'(

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for your purchase of 2 ASUS LCD display monitors. I am sorry to see that both of them have developed some dead pixels. Have you considered utilizing your manufaactures warranty? If you purchased the monitors brand new, you should still be within the time frame. Feel free to reach out to me at cl-jolene@asus.com with your case number N140962562. I would be more than happy to further look into this for you. Be sure to include your serial numbers.

Best regards,
Jolene

4 out of 5 eggsNot quite 5 eggs

Pros: Good product, no bad pixels and a good selection of inputs. I had the display since May and am very pleased with it.

Cons: I have the display attached to my APC backup since I don't have an outlet on the power supply in the computer. By the time the APC runs through checking the battery at start-up the monitor is in standby. I don't power up the computer until the APC comes up on household current. It is annoying that I have to take the display out of standby all the time to see what is happening on the screen.

Other Thoughts: "Good product but they nit picked about the rebate information and rejected my rebate.They think they need an extra $20.00 more than customer good will and they lost a customer. I won't buy any ASUS product again......."

4 out of 5 eggs3 month review

Pros: I previously reviewed this monitor as being 5 stars and I am still very satisfied with the monitor and it's overall operation. However, I have identified one deficiency that irritates me to no end about the monitor as I have spelled out in the cons section which has caused me to rethink the 5 stars and reduce the original review to 4 stars.

Cons: The power LED is next to impossible to see from the front of the monitor. You have to lean over to see if the monitor is turned on or off. At first I was thinking that the power switch was flaky because at times I would have to press the switch twice or more to turn on the monitor. What was really happening was that I had left the monitor on from my previous session so when I thought I was turning it on I was really turning it off. Then I would have to press it again to turn the monitor on. The power indicator needs to either be placed on the front of the monitor or have a design change so that it is visible from the front.

Other Thoughts: I am still very pleased with the monitor and for the price I paid I would certainly buy it again. As it is you either have to lean way over to see if it is on or off or you have to place a mirror on your desktop to see if the light is on. Perhaps the ASUS representatives will see this review and refer my comments to their design depart so this design flaw, in a otherwise perfect product, can be corrected.

5 out of 5 eggsBest thing since sliced bread.

Pros: Seeing as i was using a 19" CRT monitor(VGA connection) since pretty much the stone age, going to this product has blown my mind.

Im a avid movie watcher, gamer and photographer and this has blown new life into pretty much everything i do.

Games are a whole new level of awesome.
Movies are sharp and clear.
Photographs are easier to edit and get a more "pure" image.

Quick and easy switch to the preset color profiles(Scenery, Gaming, etc etc).
Screen is clear, bright, crisp and had no dead pixels.
PiP...people still use this?

Overall this product is awesome.

Cons: I gave 5 stars as the quality of the product is superb. If the following mattered to me personally i would of docked an egg.

1) Install directions(I.E. Manual). 3 sentences in english. Although im pretty sure it had every possible written and spoken language that this planet has to offer included on the manual.

2) Tilt. I was afraid to adjust the tilt(forward and backwards) as it was fairly "tight" and didnt want to break the base with the force to change it. There were no clear instructions as to where and how to adjust it.

3)Speakers. While a bonus that these are even included, they are so insignificant its equivalent to calling your friend on 2 cups connected by a string.

4)No inherent screen size adjustment. Took me a good 15 minutes scrolling through every menu option before i realized you cannot change or adjust the screen size(to fill the monitor). Finally figured out i had to go into my ATI interface and adjust the overscan to fill the entire screen with a picture.

5) No height adjustments. I had to lower my chair so low to the ground i ended up just sitting on top of some pillows so i was eye level with the monitor. Perfect if you are a "little person" though.

6) It doesnt come with a mail order bride, a money tree or a spaceship.

5 out of 5 eggsWorks Great

Pros: Bright colors, easy to configure, decent volume on monitor. It has a all the input you would need for a modern monitor.

Cons: Height is not adjustable, does not go higher than 1900 x 1080. I am fine with this. But I can see other people point about a 27" monitor going higher than 1900 x 1080

Other Thoughts: Great monitor. Contemplating about buying another one of these to replace my old Gateway 24" workhorse that does 1900 x 1200. Hard to find a monitor these days tha that extra 120 height.
