Wow Factor

 

Newegg continues to be a terrific source for my computer needs. Excellent web interface, quality products and quick shipping are their hallmark.

This is a superb monitor that deserves all the praise that it has received. I bought the 27" ASUS to replace a failing I-INC 24" monitor with the same outside dimensions. I was so impressed that I replaced my second monitor as well. They are beautiful...

For the life of me, I can't think of one

Beautiful and no glare!

 

Wow, I absolutely love this monitor. It's a 27" viewable monitor that fits in a 24" space! Almost no bezel at all. The styling is amazing and so is the screen. I have large windows behind me and with this monitor, I can work in daylight with minimal...

BIG. Bright. Beautiful. Thin bezel. Stylish. No glare

Controls take a bit of getting used to. Really annoying at first. The only minus. Oh, and while the built-in speakers are Bang-Olufsen, they are still a bit thin on sound...better than most built-ins, but they don't take the place of a good set of...

Beautiful monitor

 

Can Asus refer me to a manufacturer that can provide me with a big enough desk for 3 of these?

Bright, bright, bright. Had to adjust the settings to my liking, but it's a wonderful step up from a 22" 1680X1050 screen. Full 1080P, 1920X1080, sharp, crisp, magnificent picture. I'll have to upgrade my outdated video card before I can test it...

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN, sorry, there is none yet

Solid Asus product

 

Another solid product from asus! I will be making another purchase of the mx series, when the mx299q is released.

I was in a market for 27inch+ monitor for sometime and stumbled upon this beauty, decided to pull a trigger on it. Beautiful looking display, great viewing angles / color display, as well as enough real estate to get your work done if you are not using...

Coming from asus vs24inch 2ms monitor, I do notice bit of delay when playing fps games. It is not significant however if you are a hardcore gamer, this may have negative impact on your gaming

Excellent Picture Quality

 

I don't really see an advantage of this IPS display for viewing angle over my other conventional monitors.

Excellent picture quality -- great contrast and definition. Crysis 3 looks fabulous with no signs of lag or ghosting. Very uniform screen brightness from edge to center

Second RMA

 

Unfortunately, I would say stay away from this monitor until ASUS improves their quality control. Absolutely unacceptable for a $350 monitor; especially from a company with such a strong reputation. It's heartbreaking because it really is a beautiful...

Gorgeous display ; Not truly frameless, but close ; Phenomenal color reproduction ; Good response time

I received my first one and it was great for a couple of weeks. However, then I started getting a random red line a pixel wide going the entire width of the screen from top to bottom. Sometimes this line was blue or green as well. Pressing gently on...

Fantastic Monitor

 

Very bright and clear ; Response time is excellent ; Works like a charm with all HDMI devices ; Audio out is awesome ; Dual HDMI ports ; Comes with all the cables you need with exception HDMI ; HDMI cable provided is for DVI to HDMI, therefore no audio

Wish it had a remote :)

Monitor

 

sounded good

red grid problem. immediate rma. still have to wait five days after they get it until they send me one.... I was expecting a rapid replacement because this monitor is considered doa. I don't see how buying the service plan helped one bit

Asus MX279H review

 

The Asus MX279H is a very attractive monitor. Its frameless 27in AH-IPS display is just 18mm thick, and it has a touch-sensitive menu bar running along the bottom of the screen. Sadly, its stand is fixed, but there's plenty of screen tilt to help you...

We’d prefer a higher maximum resolution, but this is a beautifully designed monitor with great image quality
