ASUS TUF Gaming VG249Q 23.8” Monitor 144Hz Full HD (1920 x 1080) 1ms IPS ELMB FreeSync Eye Care DisplayPort HDMI D-Sub

The quality was really good and what expected. The only thing I noticed was this single red pixel. I don’t think it was dead pixel because it wasn’t white. It’s not noticeable unless you really look at it, but I am overall really happy with the monitor

Good

After 1.5 years, the monitor is already breaking down. Have huge expectations, but if your products cant last more than 2 years especially with this price rage is a pretty big red flag. I have bought a lot of monitors and all of them are still alive to this day. Another big disappointment. What else is new. Just go next. Dont bother spending your hard earn cash here.

I Purchased 2 of these monitors for working from home. Im not a gamer, so a lot of the gamer elements are lost on me, however, the screens are very clean in their design, smooth movement from the included stands, vertical adjustment and swivel for using them in portrait video mode. The video quality is excellent using the included Display port cables. Even though Im running these on an old Dell laptop with a docking station they are pretty nice. I paid 169.99 each at a brick and mortar store near me. I find that they are just the right size for my current setup and make working on grading papers and videos quite a lot more pleasant experience. I was using a pair of old, mismatched monitors and the difference between these and those old ones is night and day. These monitors came very well packaged in a nice thick box with lots of Styrofoam around the entirety of the screen. The required assembly was 1 thumbscrew to attach the base to the monitor stand. Ive been using them for about a week with no issues so far. I did take the time to check them for dead/stuck pixels and so far have found NONE. This was a particular issue since the last monitor I was using had one green stuck pixel right in the middle of the screen that was driving me crazy. Overall Id recommend this.

This monitor is really good for my ps5 since it can do 144hz even though the ps5 can only do 120hz but sometimes it goes black screen for 1 second or 2 every now and then but never gets in the way of gaming.

The downward spiral of the picture quality after only 10 months is drastic. For home use, I would avoid this model. Its fairly unwatchable at this point and there is no recourse to return or fix.

1080p 144hz IPS display for $250? I was very skeptical. I bought it to give it a try and also because I couldnt find any other 1080p 144hz IPS displays besides an Acer one that has a serious flaw in its design making the 144hz near useless. Any who the image looks great. This DOES work with NVIDIA G-SYNC. Im running this on a non super RTX 2070 and every thing is awesome. It takes quite a bit of menu surfing to set it up, not just on the monitor but on your pc in the NVIDIA control panel to get the two talking to each other but it does Indeed work. Keep in mind Im coming from a cheap 22 Dell 1080p glossy monitor too so this is a huge step up for me. My opinion may be a bit skewed based on that fact. Turning on 144hz makes a huge difference. Its night and day. Like if you got lasik surgery after wearing glasses for 20 years kind of difference. Even when not playing video games. I noticed the 144hz immediately when moving my cursor around. Everything was just sharper. The ELMB (EXTREME LOW MOTION BLUR) I keep off because it causes the monitor lose a boatload of brightness. Other than the monitor brightness issue I dont notice its off. IMO its kind of useless and is just a selling point. The built in 2 watt speakers actually arent half bad for what they are. Built in speakers are always garbage but these actually manage to make listening to audio not sound ear piercing, tin can like, and thin. They have zero bass obviously but if I had to rely on these for every day tasks I wouldnt be mad. The shadow boost function works well but it too does cause the monitor to loose some over all brightness. Not as bad as the ELMB function but its still noticeable. Again I just leave this off and use gamma correction in the Nvidia control panel or in the game im playing to adjust for this. Over all if you want a monitor that is 1080p only, 144hz, and IPS that works on both AMD and Nvidia GPUs then this seems to be an almost perfect monitor for that. As far as longevity goers, we will have to see. My room mate has a higher end ASUS 1440p gaming monitor that comes with all the bells, whistles, and a kitchen sink but its seems like its back light is already going out after just over 8 months of him owning it. it still works but it makes me worry about ASUS quality these days. He cant get it fixed because he says ASUS customer support is non existent, but what gaming peripheral company has good support anyways right? Theyre all mostly bad at it. If you are looking at this monitor specifically for ELMB and or the Shadow Boost funtions you will be very disappointed as they gimp the monitor to provide a slight boost in visuals. if they can figure out how to implement ELMB in a monitor with out brightness loss and maybe make it a little more efficient it could the next big feature for monitors. All in all Id say its VERY good purchase as long as it lasts for a few years.

This is a great gaming monitor! It truly is 144hz, has great IPS paneling, and lots of different modes to choose from. I actually liked the shadow boost setting, especially for games like Metro Exodus. It also has probably the best mount I’ve ever seen on a monitor. It’s so sturdy and has many adjustment options. I had no dead or stuck pixels first try. If you’re not looking to spend too much but still want a great monitor, this is the one for you.

I have bought this monitor twice now one in Jan 2020 and one now Apr 2021. This is my favorite monitor in the world. Has amazing colors and is a gaming monitor. Like YESSSSSSS Its perfect for me as a artist and gamer! I never once had an issue with dead pixels or anything happening to my monitors out the box the packaging is always great and handled with so much love and care and I just really love this monitor Its so worth the price.

nice monitor
