If you are looking for a well built, inexpensive monitor with a good feature set then this is a great choice.
FIrst off, I really like the overall styling and design of the monitor itself. It's understated and doesn't scream gaming monitor. The only branding is the small elite logo and it sort of fades in, so it's not screaming at you as you view the monitor. There is RGB on the back and down firing RGB lights along the bottom bezel. You want to make sure you connect the monitor via USB, and download the Elite Display controller software. This allows you to adjust monitor settings as well as tinker with the RGB settings. Good news is once you use the software to configure the RGB, it's saved to the monitor. So you can use the software once, to setup and never used it again if you like.
My copy has no dead pixels and the picture is fairly uniform across the screen. The monitor is detected as G-Sync compatible by my RTX3070. So far in the games I've tried, I haven't noticed any issues with flicker or anything like that. Out of the box color accuracy is ok. Gamers will enjoy it as it's bright and colors are saturated. Since I use this for my photo work as well, I did calibrate it via a Datacolor Spyder 5 to improve color reproduction as best as possible. While not a "pro" grade display for color work, it's excellent though, if you want that mix of gaming and that. I've included some results here, post calibration.

The good:
The monitors are bright, the color space and depth accurate and good, and 2K resolution well done and you get 165hz through the Display port. 144hz thru the HDMI. Would've been nice if it was 165hz as well. However, as an FYI, when connecting to the HDMI ports you can get 4K@60hz (sometimes it happens and they don't market it for its full capabilities) which is great for photo editing and even console gaming. There is matte finish on the display. The build quality is good, and the base is not too big, nice looking and sturdy. The monitors can be easily raised, tilted, swiveled, and rotated. The added features for a headset hanger, mouse cable guides (which there are 2, one on each side), RGB on the back and underneath the bottom bezel, (which could be brighter maybe but I haven't really tested any good situations for it yet) and USB hub are nice touches that enhance your gaming or desk setup, helping to keep your peripherals organized and look spiffy. In the case of the hub it adds more USB ports for your setup. The HDR is there, not HDR1000 ( this monitor is HDR400) but you notice the difference. It is G-Sync compatible, as my laptop notified me that a G-Sync compatible display was attached and you enable it Nvidia settings. This is just as good as monitors that have G-sync only modules, since it allows for Free sync as well and is less expensive. The bezels on top and sides are narrow and the bottom is not too bad.
Overall I like what these monitors have to offer a lot. The On screen menu is fairly easy to use; wish they used another interface to navigate the menu than the joystick knob manufacturers are fond of using.
The Bad:
2 monitors have 1 stuck pixel each (not dead pixels) and the other one has 2 stuck pixels. They are not dead center but close to it. So QC/QA isn't 100% and these are relatively expensive monitors and Viewsonic is a reputable company known for nice and quality displays. There are no other physical issue with them, and the light bleeding is pretty close to non-existent but now I am wondering with what ifs. Do more pixels get stuck or are there other issues that may arise. So check everything out before your 30 days expire, which mine hasn't yet. And keep the boxes in case something does arise before the 30 days. So 4 stars.
The other issue, which is common with many monitors is that when certain settings are enabled other settings are blocked from customizing. Like I said before I haven't gone through all the settings but it would nice to be able to change settings slightly when selecting a certain mode or enabling Adaptive sync. I'm sure they optimize it but everyone has different eyes. This isn't a deal breaker though.
This a great monitor if it's flawless.
Top reviews from other countries
Input lag is very low. I noticed when I had a far better shooting and slashing experience in GTA 5 and witcher 3. I felt like I became a better gamer. I was constantly ranking 3-5 in most Valorant death matches and I am a very average gamer when it comes to esports.
Build quality is very good. Stand is worth 4-5k. Ambient light are good if you are into it. . However if you need it they are there and fully customisable.
There is a slight yellow tinge to white on this monitor. This i later realize is that monitor color is actually more accurate since 6500k white point is slight warm. It can be made for whitish by putting green on 90 and red on 95 and blue on 100 using full color control.
One more the panel in this monitor is the same panel is an updated version of panel used in Aurous fi27q, Acer Xv 272u and vg271 use a lower variant of the same panel.
HDR400 is there. I found it useful in HDR movies. Hdr 400 is well implemented here to the extent possible. But don't assume OLED or miniled like contrast.
However, SDR on this monitor is much better. It's sharper, more accurate and surprisingly has better blacks.
Edit 1: It seems the monitor XG270q is sold out and not available. ViewSonic should bring it back or its successor. Since this monitor was pretty good.
