UPDATE 2.5 years later:
Still rocking it, gaming it, videos galore. No issues or problems. Still have my original box if it twitches before 3 year warranty expires. It's my precious. Considering buying another one just like this for my work desk, so worth it! Great performance, ergo as heck, and value with this monitor!! Boom!!!!
The Panel
It’s worth noting that Asus doesn’t offer a zero dead pixel guarantee, but the screen is perfect. There are zero dead/stuck pixels, no light bleed, respectable black levels, and colors all look natural. It goes nice and bright, but I mostly use it at a lower brightness since I use it all day. It has a pixel density of 109ppi, which is good, not great, but does look like a continuous set of pixels with no screen door effect as long as you aren’t right on top of it.
The curve on this monitor is 1800r, or in other words, has a radius of 1800 millimeters. Think of this as the maximum distance you can sit back from the monitor, where the G9 has a 1000r curve, where you would want to sit no further than 1 meter back, and this monitor you would want to sit no further than 1.8 meters back. My preference is to sit a few feet back if I have to stare at a monitor for 8 hours, and if I sat any closer I may have had a less favorable view of the monitor. Because of the viewing angles of the panel, from where I sit the last inch or so of the screen is a bit darker than the rest, and as you move closer the darkness eats up more and more of the screen. 1000r seemed like it would be too much of a curve, but perhaps more than 1800 would have been nice. Most of the time I don’t notice and am not looking at the extreme edge of the screen, but I’ll probably try to move the monitor just a bit further back anyway. If you like to sit closer, consider a 1000r panel.
Everything Else
I have my laptop plugged in with a USB C. When I put my laptop to sleep, the monitor goes to sleep, and when I wake my laptop up, the monitor wakes up. A minor detail, but nice to have. There isn’t any quirkiness of will it/won’t it turn on or any delay in it turning on. It just works, every time.
The USB C can charge at 65 watts if you want to use the USB ports, or 90 watts if you don’t need the USB ports or want to connect them with a separate cable. It has a few USB ports and you can always slip a USB hub under the cover if you need more. Initially the monitor didn’t want to turn on, but there’s a setting where you need to pick the type of USB C connection. I’m getting full resolution, but only 60 hertz from my laptop, but it may be a laptop issue and not a monitor/USB C issue, I can’t say for sure. With a single USB C connection, I have power, video, mouse, keyboard, webcam, and speakers that connect through the monitor. No issues with connecting it to either mac or pc.
I put the monitor on an Ergotron HX, so no comment on the stand as I haven’t really even looked at it. There does seem to be a bezel that could hide the screws on the vesa mount, but it doesn’t fit over the HX mount (without a dremel at least) and may just be intended for the stand anyway. It has speakers, but I would only use them in a pinch as they aren’t good. There’s a joystick on the bottom of it right in the middle that works well, but feels awkward to use because of the positioning and there isn’t a remote or anything. From a looks perspective, it’s fairly basic without any gamer RGB silliness or anything, but the fit and finish are nice and it looks cool mounted on the arm, likely due to the sheer size more than anything else.
Conclusion
I love it. You may have a different use case which I can’t comment on yet. Fancy Zones is a must have and it’s cool to snap a big 27” window in the middle of the screen with two smaller ones on the side. It’s really nice when someone is sharing their screen with you and you can make it as big as you want, because your screen is bigger and wider than theirs, even with their video on the side. No squinting needed. Screen sharing over zoom is fine as you can set it to share a portion of your screen. Teams doesn’t give you many good options, but there are workarounds.
You are in the price range that you can get a g9 or Neo G9 on sale for a negligible difference, but between hoping the one USB C dock people recommend for it works and questionable QC, the Asus seems like the winner. There are a number of other 49” panels, Dell, LG, Phillips, AOC etc., many of which appear to be different variants of the same few panels, but on paper none seem like as good of a choice as the Asus. OLED monitors look interesting, but between burn in and questionable longevity, they don’t seem like the best choice for an everyday monitor.
