ASUS – ROG Strix 27″ OLED QHD 240Hz G-SYNC/FreeSync Gaming Monitor with HDR (HDMI, DisplayPort) – Black

I’ve had three OLED Monitors so far. All of them were glossy. The first one was the Aorus 27 inch QD-OLED 360hz Monitor. With QD-Oled the blacks do raise when ambient lighting is bright. The colors are still good, motion is still good, but blacks are raise to a purple color. I returned that one because I told my wife I would lol.
I then purchased the Alienware somewhat equivalent of the Aorus 360hz Oled. It didn’t have KVM, speakers or HDMI 2.1, but the panel was just as good, because it was probably the same panel minus the other features the Aorus had. I returned it.
I then purchased this glossy WOLED monitor. The gloss is more like a semi-gloss coating, and although the QD-Oled’s colors seemed to be more vivid or vibrant, the WOLED Glossy’s blacks don’t raise with high ambient light. I watched HDR videos and the picture and color looked good. Is it at good as my LG C1 48inch Evo Panel OLED? Maybe not as good, but I might keep this unless they come out with a higher refresh rate glossy WOLED.
Only buy this if you’re going to get it at Bestbuy, because of the RMA complaints from customers with Asus. Buy Totaltech or get the 4 years monitor warranty. THAT WARRANTY IS WORTH IT!

There isn’t one flaw on this monitor, not even one! If dust were to land on it, that dust would transcend into a higher being. If you have the money, buy it!
Currently use as my main monitor for my duo set up.

Let me start out by saying that I’am using this monitor purely for gaming might do some browsing here and there, but that’s about it. With that being said this monitor is incredible with INSANE quality. The bright colors and very dark blacks really pop creating a beautiful picture that ha elevated my gaming sessions. I find myself stopping and appreciating the environments a lot more that plus the 240hz refresh rate and I couldn’t recommend this monitor enough especially if you find it on sale.

Let me preface this by saying OLED is still relatively new to average consumers. With that being said, for the money it is almost perfect. At this price point, you’d expect a remote, USB-C PD, and ultimately HDMI 2.1. You just have to remember that you get an insanely vivid and color accurate OLED panel with VRR and HDR. No, it’s not the perfect monitor, but for the money, it’s pretty close. I’ve tried dozens of monitors. LCD, IPS, LED, you name it. This panel has convinced me that the OLED technology is the best money can buy right now. This should be the standard for high-end displays.
