    ASUS MX279H 27-Inch, Full HD 1920x1080 IPS, Audio by Bang & Olufsen ICEpower HDMI VGA Frameless Monitor

    • I love ASUS monitors so a bit of a fan boy, but this one is so clean and refreshing to look at
    • Ended up buying this at BestBuy because I'm a bit paranoid about shipping TVs/Screens on Amazon
    • I have 2 of the ACERS now and they work just fine very good video quality, however the stand is a bit weak, and could be improved, but its adequate with careful handling
    • Base is a bit unstable not unreasonably so however, and the design is aesthetically pleasing and saves space on your desk.
    • The controls are a bit hard to get used to, given that they are not really full buttons, and that they are just touch capacitive
    • The stand was a bit tricky to set up, but the image and text quality are terrific
    • , I was a bit nervous buying this item used Like New from the Amazon Warehouse Deals outlet.
    • The base should be more stable cause the screen shakes a bit too easy!
    • One concern is the higher (quite a bit) than usual heat at the bottom of the monitor after a couple of hours
    • Monitor wobbles a bit/easily.
    • The monitor does have a fair bit of ghosting, but it's not a problem for me either
    • I was aware of the IPS glow problem of the ASUS monitors and a bit of IPS glow issue I noticed on the monitor was tolerable
    • Noticeable, definitely, but after a couple days my first monitor toned the glow down a little bit
    • I have 2 of the ACERS now and they work just fine very good video quality, however the stand is a bit weak, and could be improved, but its adequate with careful handling
    • The only issues I have are that the border where the pixels end is a decent bit inside of the actual outer border of the screen, and the max dimness is still more dim than some other monitors can get.
    • The 27" is a bit slower than the 24" gamer monitor that's rated at 2 MS
    • I bought two of these and both monitor wobble a bit left and right.
    • The monitor has a slight anti-glare coating that is nice to have, but it seems to smudge/soften the picture a bit
    • Very annoying if you have a desk that wobbles a tiny bit as even typing can cause the monitors to wobble a bit.
    • Right now G-sync is a bit too pricey adding on around $150 onto the monitor price
    • Very bad button location/sensitivity - a possible work around would be to get a separate HDMI selector and use that instead - which I strong recommend if your going to use different inputs.2
    • This monitor has the best and deepest blacks I've ever seen
    • n’t want the power adapter freely hanging in the air.
