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

I bought this as my only option for a 144hz monitor with a non-TN PANEL. I am blown away by the quality. I only wish it had the updated control buttons as the GUI is kind of terrible

I’ve been using this for 6 months now. The adaptor is a bit loose sometimes. And although not enough brightness for work sometimes, but since it’s anti-galore screen it can use a monitor bar light on top. Gaming is bright enough since I always do it in the dark.

I already had a replacement on the way due to delivery issues, we shall see if the second one has any defects. Im already dealing with a dead row of pixels on my LG that is 7 years old. wasnt expecting something this nice to come with a free dead one lol. will post pictures of the second unit, I packed up the first one before I had the chance to while in call w amazon CS.

Before I start, I just wanna say this review was not uploaded because there bribing me, this is my honest opinion and I chose to review this without any payment. This monitor is great for gaming, 144hz frame rate looks awesome! Dont hesitate to buy, this Monitor has amazing frame rate, a 1080p display, and more. I dont wanna make this review too long but this monitor is amazing, if youre thinking about purchasing it, 100% buy it.

The monitor is good enough but I thought it had the new ELMB Sync feature for freesync and backlight strobing at the same time but it doesnt.

Asus always make great products and this will last me a while

The quality is great

When my old Dell Ultrasharp met an unfortunate end, it was time for a new monitor. I was looking for something under $250 US, with good color for both gaming and general family use. I knew there would be tradeoffs at this price point, so I spent quite a bit of time on research. When I decided on the Asus 249Q, I tried to buy it at my preferred retailer for electronics - Best Buy - but they were out of stock. Fortunately, Amazon had 9 available. UPS trashed the package during delivery, but the monitor itself was unscathed. Assembly was laughably easy ... really good engineering. My priorities were: 1. Screen quality - IPS panel, 144Hz, 4ms/1ms response. This is a first generation IPS gaming monitor, and I am very pleased with how it looks and performs out of the box. The on-screen controls are plentiful and easy to use, but I thought the stock settings were perfect for my use. 2. Stand quality - I wanted something solid and adjustable. This stand swivels, tilts, and has height adjustment. Its footprint is small, and I love the minimalist look. The connectors on the back are a bit difficult to reach, but I like that they do not disrupt the lines. This monitor has an elegant look from every angle, including the back. 3. Connections - I needed both an HDMI (for my Xbox One X) and a DisplayPort (for my computer). And the trade-offs: UPDATE - Asus was less than honest in listing the specifications. While featuring that the monitor supports FreeSync, they did not specify that this is only via DisplayPort, not HDMI. They are smart people and must know that this omission is misleading. 1. No G-sync. If you are looking to buy or built a computer with a GTX GPU, this might be an issue. 2. Connectors. There is one HDMI, one DisplayPort, one VGA, and strangely one audio-in jack (no audio out jack). Thats it. No USB. This works for me. 3. Speakers. I dont believe monitors should try to do audio. It never ends well. This monitor includes speakers, and, no surprise, they are thin and weak. I was initially very pleased with my purchase and gave it 5 stars. The monitor has no evident quality issues. I am disappointed with Asus for its misleading specifications regarding FreeSync support. Anyways, if any additional issues come up, I will circle back and update this review.

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.

My wife has two of these monitors for her home computer setup, and she loves them. She uses them everyday for her home PC and work PC. They can be tilted all over, rotated, and raised or lowered. The base is very sturdy and steady. This is a great monitor, perfectly viable for looking at things and gaming! The one pitfall this monitor has is that the speakers are PATHETIC. Theres no depth to them (very tinny), and they dont get very loud. Im not sure how the people at ASUS thought this was appropriate, but their other monitors that Ive tried have similarly underpowered speakers.
