There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Pros:
- The display is crisp and bright, and had no dead pixels or any issue on arrival. It doesn't have any screen ghosting or any refresh issues readily noticeable, even under heavy load.
- The multiple inputs feature is easy to use and a nice addition, and all inputs test with the same quality.
- The fine-tuning options of the display seem robust (but that may just be advances in general monitor technology).
"Cons:"
- The mounting area for this monitor is recessed into the body, and since my current monitor mount has been with me for 2 moves and a decade of time, I don't have the hardware to add it to my existing monitor mount, as the mounting area isn't flat on the back of the monitor. I suspect a newer mount would support it, but I don't know. (I expected this possibility when ordering so it's more just annoying than it is a problem)
- The built in speakers aren't the best, and are limited in volume and their ability to not sound like they've been run through a 6" tin pipe. That said, if you're not aiming to run high-end media with the audio through the monitor (such as streaming, gaming, or music) most audio "issues" are passible. The main issue is convincing Windows which speaker set to use for which application, but that's not the monitor's fault.
- Lateral mouse movements are considerably quicker (more responsive) than vertical movements in a Windows environment for this display, and will feel more responsive on the x-axis and sluggish against the y-axis for similar mouse movements. In most gaming environments I've tested with, they allow scaling to x and y sensitivity that can help mitigate the issue, but it might just be best to learn a new movement feel.
Overall, it's a fantastic piece of hardware, but you should be aware of possible drawbacks just in case.
Setting up 1440p @ 144 Hz was a breeze. Turning on G-Sync was also very easy to do in the built-in menu. Overall the interface is very user friendly and easy to get used to. The power light on the bottom right corner is easily visible at a glance to determine power status.
The colors seem pretty accurate, and do not disappoint in terms of immersion. Blacks are pretty dark, but bright scenes are certainly discernable as such. Brightness isn't the best, but if you usually play games at night time like me, you won't have a problem. There was some screen tearing initially, but turning on ELMB completely eradicated this issue.
This monitor is by far the best, most responsive I've ever used. Flicking shots has never been easier, and it's easy to see what you're sweeping on fast mouse movements. I've never been more competitive as I am while using a quality monitor like this. It makes it that much easier to see what is happening and respond accordingly in-game.
I would definitely recommend this monitor, and would buy another if I needed it. The price was really good, and the results I've seen have been nothing short of fantastic. I'm also running an ASUS motherboard, also which has had no problems whatsoever. I will continue to purchase the quality products ASUS has to offer!
To say the difference in performance was a leap would be an understatement. The things this monitor features alone (g sync, shadow boost, sleek optional crosshair, 143.8 hz) are amazing. You can see very well on this monitor. The graphics in every game are stunning with it.
The screen itself feels high quality when I clean it compared to the old screen I was using. The screen is firmer on this one.
It came with everything needed, including a display port and screw driver. It was very well packaged, easy to put together, and even easier to use. This monitor is absolutely amazing and I would recommend it to anyone.
I will say, the ability to move such a large monitor up and down is a little useless on this model. It isn’t a noticeable difference. I would probably get the one that doesn’t move up and down, since it isn’t a feature I find that makes an incredible difference due to how large the screen is.
