ASUS 27 1080P Eye Care Monitor VA279HG - IPS Full HD 99 sRGB Frameless 120Hz 1ms Adaptive-Sync HDMI

I really like these two ASUS monitors. Even though they are only 1920x1080 they seem to be enough for close computer work. I needed to get two new dual monitors because I needed the bigger screens to make it easier for me after I got cataract surgery. They are bright and easy on the eyes with all the control adjustment settings at the bottom of the screens. I would recommend these if you want a great monitor at a cheaper price. Read more

I have a 3-monitor setup, all Asus--the 24 and the 27, both matte screens, and this one. They're all perfectly fine monitors, but I got this one because of the slightly glossy screen, for videos and movies. It gives the picture more richness and depth than the matte screens. It has a feature set of 8 somewhat customizable modes, plus blue light controls, brightness, contrast, and color temperature adjustments. Yes, it is more reflective than the matte screens, so if light reflection bothers you, be aware of how you place the monitor relative to other light sources in the room. It's not enough to bother me at all so far. The backlight is perfectly even, like the other 2 monitors. If you use it desktop style the base will not change height or rotate, though it will tilt a bit. It's VESA wall mountable. No DP input, so take that into account if you're using multiple monitors. To date, I'm totally happy with it. Read more

This monitor is beautiful and it works perfect for my setup. I didn't realize it had no speakers but it's fine. The color is perfect and it does not strain my eyes. It is also very easy to put together. Perfect size if you only want one monitor on your desk. It is good for gaming, watching videos, and everything else. It is not too heavy either. Read more

Heavier than I expected. Much heavier than my old 22-inch monitor. (My 55-inch TV is light by comparison.) Be careful taking it out of the box. It would be better if you turned it sideways and slid it out. Lifting it straight up could allow it to fall, because there is nothing to firmly hold on to. Assembly was fairly easy, but the instructions were too tiny to really see. The base is a hard plastic, but, since it is supporting the weight, I would have preferred metal. Works well, but not a smooth substitute for the old monitor. Had to reboot a couple times before it was working fully. And there seems to be some problem in working with the mouse. I am fairly certain it is a technical issue that is easily cleared up. But the point is, that all the other monitors I purchased save one, were all plug-in-and-play. The colors are excellent and the definition is sharp with good contrast. If it also turns out to be as easy on the eyes as it says, then it is a very good buy. (I didn't test the built-in speaker. I was already using a good set.) Read more

A good quality monitor, Read more

Love it so far! It's replacing an old NEC 24 inch monitor that started blinking in and out, and I needed something that supported both my old tower and my new laptop. With the HDMI connection for my laptop, and the DP port for my tower, I can easily switch between the two with no problem at all. Being my vision isn't what it used to be, the extra size makes a welcome difference. The clarity is great and the colors are good, though not as subtle as my old NEC which was a premium monitor when I bought it. For the price it was well worth the money. Read more

This monitor doesn’t perform as expected. Setting it to 75Hz mode (which Windows reads as 74.937Hz) causes noticeable stuttering and jittery video playback, forcing me to stick with 60Hz for a smoother experience. Backlight bleeding is a real issue on this model—unless you keep brightness super low, it’s very noticeable on darker backgrounds & scenes. Viewing angles aren’t great either; you need to be dead center, or one side will appear darker (noticeable shadowing effect). Build quality is decent—it feels durable, the stand feels sturdy, and setup is effortless. However, it lacks USB ports, offering just two HDMI 1.4 inputs and an outdated VGA port. Overall, not worth the money unless you can find one at a steep discount. The included picture (a black background) exaggerates the backlight bleeding, but it’s still very noticeable in real use. If it had no backlight bleeding I'd give it a 3 out of 5. Read more
