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

Awesome picture. The difference between VA and TN is crazy. I love every inch of this monitor. I can’t believe the price is so low. No bad pixels nothing wrong at all. Except the audio input doesn’t output audio which kinda sucks. Other then that it’s amazing.

The quality is great

I would suggest you to rethink twice before purchasing the VG249Q: This is a $150 IPS monitor, advertised as $250 TUF gaming monitor product. It is the same picture quality and identical OSD as ASUS VP249QGR a $100 cheaper option with a worse stand. When the product was delivered, I was stunned with the quality of the build as previous reviewers had stated poor quality control with dead/stuck pixel issues as well as massive glow. I did not have this issues, however my main issues are how the colors look on this monitors, and its picture quality. First off, the colors looks odd, even when calibrated it feels like a shade of color filter is applied to the picture. The standard mode is Racing Mode which is weird since you can not adjust some of the settings in OSD, where as a typical standard mode can be fully calibrated (if you are looking to calibrate your own monitor you may think twice). The second thing you should know, is that the picture quality is blurry, and such mode such as sRGB and Racing prevents you from adjusting its sharpness. The vivid pixel makes the image looks sharp, however it is a bit pixelated even if it is at a minimum settings. IPS glow is expected in every IPS monitor. If you are into a competitive FPS game, you should know that this monitor is averaging around 8 GTG ms response time at a maximum trace free 100. My conclusion: This monitor is not worth the price. If you are on a budget and are looking for the same product get the VP249QGR or AOC 24G2 as they are much cheaper, and have the same Panda panel. As I said, the VP249QGR is the same monitor as VG249Q. All you need is a VESA mount which cost around $20. Meanwhile, there is the AOC 24G2 which has a bit faster GTG response time around 5-7 ms and wider color gamut. If you have a budget of $350 I recommend the VG259QM or MAG251RX which are 240hz and very fast IPS monitors.

Urto

poor picture quality with obvious sharpness issues. not worth the price imo. more like a $150 monitor.

The high refresh rate is a joy to use. The screen looks beautiful!

For the money I think this is a good monitor. My one qualm with it is that the black level isnt great, which I suppose to be expected from most IPS panels. The colors and motion on the other hand are quite good!

Very good for FPS games or Minecraft, I thought I scratched it once, but it healed itself in a few hours. Very high quality and crystal clear gameplay.

Good features, good panel, good quality control. Pretty satisfying buy.

I bought this product thinking I was getting a 144hz monitor but instead just found out 3 months later that it is actually a 60hz monitor but being advertised as a 144hz monitor. I would love it if I could get a resend of the correct product.
