It doesn't get better

If you want performance over everything this is your monitor. 1080p at 360hz is breathtaking! 4k upscaling is great for more story driven games. Couldn't be happier with this monitor as my primary display at my setup!

Great monitor

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2022

Absolutely un-matched for smooth high FPS gaming. If you're like me and you focus more on the performance of a game than it's appearance, this is perfect for you. The first time you watch something move across your screen at the full 360hz it feels uncanny. With such a high refresh rate, moving objects begin to have natural motion blur instead of faked blur. Being able to track something with your eyes and see it as you would a normal object feels surreal. Only minor complaint I have is that sometimes when my computer goes to sleep or shuts of the screen, the back light stays on. I've just gotten in the habit of shutting off the screen when I'm done, which is a good habit to have anyway.

Shipping issues

Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2023

My product was stolen because it was not shipped in an Amazon box. It ships as the package and everyone knows what it is so beware if you live in a apartment complex or be prepared to pick it up. Otherwise the product is amazing lol

Simply outstanding for the price

I was lucky enough to snag this monitor at retail price here on Amazon for $699. I switched from a VG259QM (TUF Gaming) super cheap-o monitor and there is such a huge difference. For starters the overdrive on extreme mode I was not able to view any visible ghosting at all while gaming. On the TUF monitor it was very bad on max overdrive. The input lag is outstanding at 360hz and it feels like you are fully connected to the game with no limitations (as long as your hardware can support 360hz!). The monitor came factory-tuned for color accuracy and it looks amazing. Was able to pair it with my PS5 to get the 120hz mode, which, when switching games on PS5, the screen will go black for a second to switch from 60hz mode to 120hz mode depending on the games you are playing and if they support it, but nothing bothering. If you have the money I say go for this beast of a monitor and you will enjoy it for many years to come!

BIGGEST SCAM IN THE ENTIRE COMPUTER MONITOR INDUSTRY

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2023

I can't believe this monitor is ranked as a high 360hz monitor. From day 1 I had issues. I was waiting to be able to get a monitor but, as of today, this monitor is officially kill. For starters, the setup to put all your cabless in the back of the monitor is the most backwards engineering ever. Was it made to be this difficult to insert a simple HDMI? I want to save you the trouble from ever having to insert cables on this thing. Pure headache! The next issue is the constant in-and-out of the black bars when watching a video. If there are black bars, the bars change resolution based off the video and does not stay constantly black! It is such an eye sore! After 4 weeks, a dead pixel appeared on the monitor. It was red so maybe a stuck pixel? It was conveniently located somewhere where I couldn't see it so I let it slide. Now, as of 5/9/2023, the color is completely wiped out. The pics in my review won't do justice, but it is so bad. I'm so mad this didn't last even 6 months!! I will be reaching out to get a replacement or refund since it falls under warranty. Please please PLEASE do NOT get this monitor! I never do reviews, but I am truly warning anyone considering this one. Get something else. I should have gotten the Zowie XL instead, but I "wanted 360 hz." Do not get this save your money and time!

Does 360hz well with very good HDR

Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2021

Works exactly as advertised, great picture quality. Tested thoroughly with a g-sync GPU with all types of applications (not just games), both the HDMI (240hz) and the DisplayPort (360hz) worked perfectly well. The gsync on this monitor is superior to the gsync on my XB3 Predator (also from ASUS) 4K144hz monitor. My only complaint is that the outlets are placed at the bottom of the monitor with a lip that makes it hard to plug things into. Five stars, great product. If higher resolution models become available from ASUS I will be 1st in line.

Overall a great monitor for gaming

Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2022

The refresh rate is amazing, and I’ll leave it to the others to comment on all the good things about the display. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star is because there’s a flaw with the external casing design. The bottom plastic underneath the screen extends back to the same level as the display port socket, and since the display port cable is quite thick and rigid, the plastic forces the cable not be able to attach into the socket completely vertically, but tilts outwards away from the monitor, resulting in a potentially unstable connection. This is probably okay since the display port still works fine, but for such a high end monitor we should have a better casing design.

I have had a 75 Hz monitor 165 Hz monitor 240 Hz model 280 Hz monitor, this monitor 360 Hz stands above all of them in terms of responsiveness and clarity. I got it on sale for $400. I mainly use it for gaming and editing. No regrets on this purchase

Dont give it 1 Star Because YOU think its not worth it

Reviewed in Canada on December 15, 2020

As someone who plays competitive games this monitor is years ahead of any 240hz monitor and the difference is QUITE noticeable, there's one review written claiming "This monitor should be 700 dollars max right now, the difference between 240hz and this is not worth the extra 450+ dollars." he probably also states the 3090 is not worth it, he clearly lacks the info on who this monitor is made for, competitive gamers and PROS. I used the Asus vg259qm before this and i can easily notice the improvement asus has made in clarity/performance. The price is high when youre buying new gen and when you want the top performance. Is it worth it?> depends on what you value? its easily one of the best monitors for competitive gaming.

NOT TO MENTION its absolutely gorgeous its calibrated better than my l27gl850, no blb, no dead pixels, the panel is perfect and that is also what youre paying for

i really tried hard not to love this monitor and looked for any reason to return it.

very very happy with my purchase.

The best on the market

Reviewed in Canada on July 27, 2021

Honestly, as someone who has spent thousands on monitors and never been happy with my buys, this one made me happy. I went through 2 odyssey G7's (both had scanline issues on displayport) two zowie xl2746s monitors (doesnt support ps5 120hz what?) And dyac+ was amazing but still this monitor is just better. Its damn fast for an IPS. While dyac+ is an amazing feature, you can still enable elmb at 240hz on this panel for damn near the same clarity. Overall this monitor just offers more kit being IPS with color accuracy good enough for content creation. It also has an actual gsync module, not "gsync compatible"
