    TOP purchase!

    I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure how long it will last, so I'm not sure if it's a good one. I'm happy with my purchase, but the gsync and freesync is only active on the display port (I didn't know that lol), The screen is in 120hz max in HDMI since I connect my laptop with a RTX3060 I still managed to put it in 144hz by fiddling on the NVIDIA settings and yes it is a TN panel it is not an IPS panel but does the job in addition to my PC which is IPS 144hz what to say more I am satisfied the screen is beautiful good finishes robust ASUS requires. I've been using it for a while now, but it's still a great product.

    Disappointed by Asus

    I've always ordered Asus hardware, but I'm really disappointed.
    There are already 2 dead pixels after 2 weeks of use, one of which is fixed and the other goes back and forth. This is unacceptable!
    Apparently, you can only have the screen changed by the manufacturer if there are 6 dead pixels in a 10cm square area... except if you have taken out LDLC's 0 dead pixel insurance, in which case LDLC will take care of it. Except that I didn't take the insurance...
    I'd rather put this review here so that everyone is aware of how dead pixels are managed.

    Otherwise, overall, this screen could be very good!

    Very good screen but too little emphasis on the configuration! (eye strain)

    The screen is very nice, the assembly is very practical and well thought out. I use it for teleworking (covid obliges). But from the start I found it too bright with an aggressive luminosity (LED) and I didn't manage to get soft colours (for other LED screens either). It was only after 4 months of daily use and researching that I came across their settings site (http://www.asus.fr/event/Eye-care/) as no instructions are provided and the configuration via the buttons on the screen does not really guide. Being in my fifties and being on a screen a lot (LED since that's all there is now), I've recently started having eye problems, and I'm convinced that this LED technology is really very harmful for the eyes (which several studies seem to confirm). The problem is taken too lightly. I'll have another look at the settings but I would have liked a "health" configuration button guiding step by step according to the uses in order to best configure the screen (comfort, anti blue light filter, etc.). What is lost in terms of vision is definitely lost, unfortunately (I'm not saying it's the screen's fault, it's a combination of factors - age, time spent - but in my opinion the LEDs are an aggravating factor - I've been using LED screens for many years!) If I give this "severe" note, it's also to make people react, especially as LEDs are also invading public space.

    good product but average packaging

    The screen is great but LDLC doesn't overpack it, so the ASUS box arrives as is. I find this a bit limiting.

    Very good

    Functional product that meets the specs described.
    I had a scare about not detecting the signal on DisplayPort but in the end the connectors were just not pushed in enough.
    Ditto for the DVI connector which provided an awful 144Hz display, and this was rectified by using the new DVI cable supplied instead of reusing my old (either obsolete or degraded) DVI cable.
    Once the DisplayPort issue was fixed, I was able to activate G-SYNC.
    The screen offers some useful and interesting tools for gamers (FPS display among others).
    The disadvantage: none of the presets suited me because they were too glaring, but you can adjust the settings yourself and save the configuration with 3 separate saves possible.

    LDLC 10/10 - Really awful Chronopost

    A nice screen that goes well with my desktop, G-Sync compatible (there is no nvidia chip but if I understood correctly they have validated the panel) for less than 300€ nothing to say, sober screen with thin edges! I've only been playing with it for a few weeks but honestly you can feel the difference with 144hz especially with competitive games like FPS etc... I had a 60hz screen connected to my laptop which was in 120hz, the difference was already obvious! But by switching to 144hz, it's incredible this feeling of fluidity in fps like PUBG, Valorant, Apex, R6 etc...

    I've read several comments from people who complained about the complexity of turning it on and adjusting the settings but even with a display port cable it took me 30 seconds in total to turn it on and go through the menus, check the settings etc. nothing complicated... The little wheel on the back does the job well, then the shortcuts for the interesting functions are ergonomic and you can quickly find the profile of this screen on the net.

    I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to check it out and see if it's working properly. I've been using it for a while now and it's a great tool to help me get my screen back. It's a great tool to help me get my screen back and it's a great tool to help me get my screen back.

    I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get my computer from you at the end of the year, but Chronopost still has a lot of work to do, especially when you pay 11€ for a delivery.

    Nickel

    The screen is very large as expected, the settings are perfect for me, brightness and colours are the same. Wiring ok, cable outlet clean, excellent design. Delivered safely, strong box.

    Good screen, good price, received very quickly. 1900x1080 sufficient for me. Response time as expected. Good for gaming.

    A dead pixel already

    Good screen overall except that there is already a dead pixel after 3 weeks of use. The pixel is blue in colour so it camouflages everywhere except on blacks, very unfortunate for movies (as it is on the right side). I reduce to 6/10. 3*
