Pros: The screen is super bright, and I mean BRIGHT. I have a quad monitor setup and it's brightness is superior to the other screens I have (TN panels). It states it's rated for 250 nits but I'd almost have to say it's around 350 myself. The color saturation is insane on this model, really deep colors. Screen is perfect size, 24in; before pixels get too noticeable.
Cons:
2 major issues.
1) The one I received came with a dead/stuck pixel right in the middle of the screen. I was willing to RMA it and get a 2nd one until I discovered the 2nd issue.
2) So this may be slightly difficult to explain, but this is an IPS screen (known for brilliant colors, which it delivers). The problem is that there are "cheap" IPS screens and "professional" IPS screens. They are known as "6 bit + FRC" and "true 8 bit", respectively. The 6 bit + FRC (this model) uses FRC (frame rate control) to achieve other bands of high quality colors by quickly alternating the pixel fields between refresh cycles to get those colors. This specific model does an absolute terrible job of performing this process, and creates what I can only describe as "vertical line banding", or simply put, very noticeable vertical scan lines which interfere with the quality of deep solid shade colors. As a graphic designer, this is completely unacceptable, especially for ASUS (my favorite brand) and for an IPS monitor (high quality colors) to perform so badly.
Needless to say I returned it for a full refund. I went looking around for other options (true 8 bit IPS screens) and found 2 other brands that I like, and so far they are terrific for colors and quality. So the take away from this story? If you really want "high quality" colors and need them for a purpose, stick with 8 bit IPS screens, and stay way from 6 bit + FRC. If your eyes are not super sensitive like mine, then you may not notice the vertical scan lines. It's up to you.
Overall Review: I searched and searched for a monitor for a good month, comparing model to model. This one seemed like the one for me because I love ASUS and stand by their products, and I wanted nothing more than a ASUS IPS monitor. This was a truly disappointing experience. I will not buy their monitors again, but I will still buy anything else they manufacture (motherboards, gaming peripherals, etc.).
Pros:
-I bought two of these for my desktop, and I like the narrow trim on the sides, makes it very easy to look at two monitors without everything feeling so spaced between them.
-Very crisp and clean look, definitely an upgrade from the Vizio TV's I was using as monitors XD
-Love that the cords for all ports came in both boxes, very nice to have.
-Speakers are pretty decent
Cons: -Very very small, but it is somewhat susceptible to glare. Granted, that window had piercing light, and a very dark curtain solved many problems including the glare on my screen, so not even sure that should be counted against the monitors.
Overall Review: Overall, I would definitely recommend these to friends, and I would definitely buy these again in the future.
Pros: great monitor for the price wish i had 2 more
Cons: I dont have any
Pros:
- Exactly what a monitor should do.
- 1 of each type of connector (only using hdmi atm)
- built-in speakers (generic but ok for my application)
- No problems at all.
Cons: - None
Overall Review: - I had a height restriction of 16 inches and wanted a wide monitor for a decent amount of desktop space. This was the perfect size for my project.
Pros:
Colors are bright
Looks good running games like OverWatch
Small bezel helps with multiple monitors
Good value
Sound is actually decent
Cons: The stands it comes with can make it a little difficult to get all 3 monitor to line up exactly, but it can be done, just don't let your kids mess with it.
Overall Review: If you are having trouble getting the audio to work on these monitors please note that if you connect the monitor using the HDMI or DisplayPort connections, the audio in mini jack is automatically disabled so don't try to use it to get sound to the monitor like I did. Reading ASUS support site, it seems this behavior is working as designed. Then means if you want to hear the sound on the monitor, you must make sure your (default) sound playback device is set to be the monitor. In Windows right click on the volume control on the bottom right of your screen and select playback devices then set the monitor as the default.
