3 month review 08/30/2014
This review is from: ASUS VE278Q 27" Full HD 1920 x 1080 HDMI VGA DisplayPort DVI-D Built-in Speakers HDMI LED Backlight LCD Monitor
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.
Overall Review:
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.
