Title: Good gaming monitor with some downsides but at an excellent price.
Review: Purchased on: April 19, 2021 and reviewed as of January 17, 2023.I tend to look at Asus more favorably because of my good experience with the brand so I ended up buying this monitor after reading Rtings' review on this model. (if you are interested in a very technical and more in depth review, I would suggest to look them up)The quality it offers for the price is great. I didn't have any issues with dead pixels, packaging was great and it arrived in good condition, the color profile looks great and very accurate (although I don't have the measuring tools to make this claim from a creative standpoint). The VESA mounting screw holes are well positioned in a way that you should be able to use any VESA plate. (this is important to consider as other models, like my other monitor, which has a square hole for the entire plate and it is a little to small to fit most VESA mounts despite having accurate screw holes)For general media consumption and gaming, this is an incredible monitor. In general, I would say I could never go back to using a standard widescreen for a PC. Ultrawide is a massive upgrade with the extra screen size. The resolution this monitor offers is great too as the text looks clean and it isn't as resource taxing as a 4K monitor would be. I would say this monitor is a great entry point for anyone considering an ultrawide screen. Black uniformity looks good in my opinion despite the lack of any dimming zones.Another great feature that it has is the 4 USB hub right underneath (USB 3.2 type A). Although I wouldn't use it for a keyboard and mouse if you are a serious gamer, it is very useful for other things such as charging your devices, plugging in an RGB strip so you can use it as a backlight, external storage or any other accessories or USB drives. (In addition to those, it has 2 Display ports, 2 HDMI 2.0 ports and a 3.5 headphone jack)On the other hand, there are a few things to keep in mind. You will not be able to use 10bit colors with the 165hz this monitor supports at the same time. If you go for 165hz, you will be limited to 8bit colors. However, if you are okay with 144hz, you can enable the full 10bit colors range.Another thing often criticized about this monitor is the slight smearing sometimes appearing in dark scenes where you might see the trails of a red/greenish pixels turning as a brighter object moves. This can be somewhat mitigated with overdrive settings. Unfortunately, this is more of a VA panel common issue than anything else and your best option if you really can't stand it is to go for an IPS or OLED panel at much higher cost.Overall, I would say this is a good quality product and I would highly recommend it. I can't speak much about the stand as I use a monitor arm and, I would suggest everyone to use one as well due to the flexibility and movement it offers on top of making your setup much cleaner.

Title: Great upgrade from 3 monitors down to 2
Review: This monitor is phenominal! I purchased this monitor to replace my 2 Asus 24" monitors. My old monitors were 10 years old and still work extremely well, but felt it was time to replace them. I have a 27" HP paired up with this monitor and together I have so much real-estate. I'm a software engineer and need as much space to organize my windows as I can get. The macbook I use this with from work only supports 2 monitors, so it's nice to get some space back. The old Intel chips supported all 3 of my monitors.As for clarity, the monitor is crisp. The only thing I noticed that wasn't as clear was a small logo in one of the apps I use for work. It's maybe like 15x15 pixels, so not a big deal that the lines are not as sharp. It's also not the best logo image anyways.For gaming, this monitor does great. I have not played a dark game yet, but when hearing about ghosting, I doubt there really is any. Rocket League looks amazing and so does Ultimate Chicken Horse. They say fast action games with dark backgrounds you'll notice it, but again I highly doubt it. And if it is there, it must be so transparent that the only way to find it is through a magnifying glass. Don't let those reviews deter you from this monitor.My only main gripes about this monitor are the buttons. Why the heck would you put them on the back? Totally not user friendly. Put them on the bottom where they are reachable. The macbook occasionally will not wake the monitor from sleep, so I need to power cycle the monitor or unplug and replug from mackbook. My windows machine has absolutely no problem, so it must be the macbook.Anyhow, out of the box, the settings are picture perfect. Still and moving images look great. I have not played with any of the menus and don't think I'll ever need to. No idea what options are available and probably never will.Lastly, I use both display ports to offer the best picture. I tried an HDMI cable, but macbook would only show 1080p. Could have just been a bad cable though.I will be sure to update this review if I find any cons over the life of this monitor. But as of right now, I've had it for 1 week.

Title: Asus 27” Curved Monitor 165 Hz Refresh Rate
Review: WOW! WOW! WOW!Upgraded from a 24” Asus flat monitor 60 Hz refresh rate (RR) to this 27” Asus curved beast with a dazzling 165 Hz RR.Not a big size difference, but the curvature of the deep black screen is a big plus with remarkably reduced glare from sunlight through facing windows.The huge 165 Hz RR (almost 3x the RR from 60 Hz) fits my 1080p (1920 x 1080 resolution) rig perfectly. My GPU is an RTX 3070 Ti.I play Diablo IV nearly every day. I can tell you that the 165 RR makes all the difference in the world! Objects are much more clear, colorful, and detailed — they “pop” from the screen like never before — it’s like a new game with this spectacular monitor!I’m a happy camper with this purchase. Plus it was on sale with a $40 savings. Did I say “Wow”?Setup was a breeze, and I’m in a wheelchair. The only “extra” I had to do was select the 165 Hz RR from the default 60 Hz.

Review: Since there are literally no professional reviews online for this monitor, I'll try to give it the old college try.Pros: - consistent color and brightness produced across the display with solid viewing angles- Flat panel, not curved (better durability)- Gsync (Using Display Port) and Freesync Premium- Great response time, virtually no detectable motion blur with the naked eye- joystick menu control- HDR10 capableCons:- small amount of light bleed at top right (see image with red circle), only noticeable in dark room when that area of screen is dark- If you enable HDR10 in windows, many of the monitors menu options will be inaccessible.- Weak Contrast Ratio, typical of most IPS displays.Summary:The big selling points of this display for me come down to this being a flat panel with great response time and great color reproduction. I bought this monitor to use for gaming, watching movies and for work, and it does all three quite well. I prefer flat over curved as a curved display can break with just a small bump on the wrong spot (speaking from experience).This model is from 2021, which explains the 100hz refresh rate as opposed to more recent 144/165hz offerings on the market. I personally don't notice much of a difference past 80 or 90hz while gaming on a high refresh display, so I wasn't looking for anything above 100hz this time.If you have the money to burn, definitely consider an OLED panel instead of this, as the contrast ratio on OLED is literally infinite while this display is rated by Asus at 1000:1. 1000:1 is considered bottom of the barrel, albeit CR is only measuring grey-to-grey and not the color reproduction or clarity. This display produces nice sharp colors without any bleed or blur. The only thing better that I've seen is OLED.The HDR10 offering on the display is a nice-to-have, but its a niche feature. Windows 11 has an auto-HDR feature that will apply HDR to non-HDR content, but it can look washed out due to IPS having weak blacks. Again, go with OLED if you're looking for great HDR.The light bleed at the top right corner is barely noticeable, and it's nothing new for IPS displays, but it's there. I had a high end Samsung 16:9 1440p display a few years back that had much worse light bleed, so this display isn't bad by comparison.All in all, for the price this display is fine and I would recommend for those using for a wide variety of tasks. Windows 11 has great snapping for having side-by-side windows open, so that's one thing it does better than 10 (and only that one thing). However, once OLED really takes over and prices come down further, this display will end up in the bargain bin. The one strength this display has over OLED is the lack of burn-in risk, which is a critical feature if you are using this for work.Is this the best 34" 3440x1440 IPS display on the market? probably not. But it's exactly what I was looking for.
