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

It works well but I regret not getting a 2k monitor. I only have a 4gb 3050, but it turns out it can actually play games in 2k with it, older ones anyway. As far as the monitor goes it is OK, good not great. The settings are a joke, at least to me. I only use it on RTS/RPG mode for games, but I use scenery or cinema for movie/tv stuff. The stand is excellent, very high quality. The plugs are hard to get to, but I dont unplug it very often so thats ok. I say it is a good monitor, not that I have much to compare it to other than my laptop display. It is better than that for sure, way bigger and easier to see. It has strong viewing angles, can see the picture from very sharp angles. I like it but I would rather have the 2k version, I just didnt think that GPU could do anything in 2k.

I bought the VG249Q to replace a defective Sceptre E255B-1658A. I originally only bought the Sceptre to replace a Asus VG279Q which was too large for my desktop setup. If I could have found the VG249Q a month ago I would have just gotten it. Its basically my old VG279Q with a smaller panel. Some cosmetic changes but otherwise identical. Same great IPS panel with great picture quality. I use it on my Xbox One X at 1080p@120hz with zero issues. Games look and run great. The adjustable stand is really nice as well. Only nitpick which doesnt really affect me it that it only has 1 hdmi input. Would be hard to gave multiple devices connected simultaneously.

So I’ll break this down into 3 categories. Things I like, things I don’t like, and who I would recommend this monitor to. First off, things I like? - I think the overall picture quality is amazing. It provides a snappy crisp image that with a little bit of tweaking in the monitor settings, you can make vibrant and colorful. This is all done without any screen bleeding or tearing. - Number two for me has to be the size and look of the monitor. I tend to gravitate towards a more minimalist look for anything gaming related. I like character but I don’t like anything over the top topically. This monitor provides extremely thin bezels making the monitor feel and play more like a 24in. This doesn’t take up a lot of desk space which makes it perfect for duel monitor setups especially with the thin bezels and the ability to attach this to a monitor mount. The monitor has the brushed dark gunmetal grey sliver frame with some black as well giving it a nice sleek character with little red accents in places like the base stand. - Third I like the adjustability of the monitor. You can rotate it 360 degrees and lean it forwards, backwards, and also adjust the height quite a bit. Now things I don’t like. - the monitor doesn’t have an opening in the stand to rout cables through like the VG245 had which can make hiding the cables a little more difficult. -Second is that this monitor only has one HDMI port, now this does have a display port and comes with a display cable, this isn’t anything you need to worry about if you are a console gamer. I wish this had two HDMI ports instead of one because having to switch cables going between consoles, or a laptop or pc can get annoying. -My last complaint is the navigation buttons on the monitor to navigate through the settings. Now while this was pretty easy to adjust to I still wasn’t the biggest fan. I prefer what the did on monitors like the VG245 where the had a joystick on the back of the monitor that made navigating through the menu much easier. Now who would I recommend this monitor to? - I think this is the perfect monitor for anyone who is playing on the new set of consoles or any PC or laptop that caps at anything higher than 175hcz. I think this is also the perfect monitor for anyone who competes on a shooter like cod or halo especially with its response time. If you want a perfect medium to smaller sized monitor for any kind of desk gaming I think this is perfect. Now you will definitely have to mess with the monitor settings in fact I will put mine down here - I play on FPS mode -blue light filter 0 -brightness 100 -contrast 85 -saturation 90 -color temp “cool” -skin tone reddish -sharpness 60 -trace free 60 And everything else leave the same as it comes. If you want a crisp smooth playing experience with vibrant beautiful colors than I highly recommend this. Weather you are competing on it or just casually playing solo or with friends on any of the new consoles or on a pc that caps under 175hcz than I think this is your best choice for the overall package. I hope this helped.

This monitor is horribly blurry, yellow tinted. Do yourself a favor and buy any other monitor its not worth it. I returned and replaced the monitor thinking that the yellow tint was a defect but after receiving my replacement I learned that is just how the monitor looks. The replacement I got also was damaged with the frame bent causing backlight bleed. Definitely not worth the money or the hassle.

Compared to the other monitors Ive used this one is probably my favorite. My 1440p monitor didnt have as much saturation and had lower refreshrate, my other 144hz 1080p monitor was a bit large for 1080p meaning I could see some of the pixels or jagged edges and this one is just perfect. Great picture, 144hz, the right size for its resolution and has built in speakers which is nice for youtube while in bed. Might I mention, theres tons of visual customization with this baby? There is and its awesome.

Very satisfied with the monitor

I haven’t gamed yet but the picture quality seems fine One big ANNOYANCE is that there’s one random dark pixel. Hope it doesn’t spread

Bought the monitor a few months ago, works great, is absolutely amazing but the only issue for me is that it is much to big for my desk which is not a very long length. Thus, I am desperately trying to get rid of it for a fair price since it is too late to return. Selling it for 200 or best offer. message my reddit u/usa-chann

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 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.
