Whilst the display itself is very clear and I think the colours well represented there are a couple of annoying issues with this display that would make me not want to purchase another

The good: Great display!

My first monitor had a faulty Display Port connector, so I was stuck with DVI-D for a few weeks

Very crisp display, needs some adjustment on the settings to avoid eyestrain (I had eyestrain on this monitor when I first got it, then used some reccommended settings in other reviews and it looks perfect now)

These displays are quite nice, colors look good and overall image quality is very nice

But the overall display is too "hazy"

My display had no artifacts or backlight bleed beyond normal IPS glow

If so, buy the BenQ and trade less pixel response and less contrast for those 2 pixels so you can claim that you have a "pixel perfect" display.

The display is absolutely beautiful

Beautiful display, amazing stand

panel displays I've seen have been horrendous

It's amazing how such a beautiful IPS display can be found for just around $200.The design of the monitor's chassis is sleek and professional, with an all-black color scheme and no garish features

It's not as bad as a TN display, but still nowhere near as good as an IPS display.

Monitor made a popping sound first night then lost Display

The display looked fine but the pictures looked like a nuclear bomb went off.

This results in display corruption, loss of signal, strange noises, etc.

Gorgeous Display

Love all the new ASUS displays

That being said, it's still superior to today's monitors at similar prices, the stand is outstanding, and the display is still pretty damned good

Great display

Amazon packaged the display very well

great display for the

I stated that because of how quickly this display showed problems (with very light usage...3 - 4 hours a day of websurfing or light PS4 & PC gaming) that I did not want a repair because I am afraid of more faulty parts within the monitor

The display is great, the adjustability up and down, side to side is great.

that display is amazing.

It was a nice display but again, it could not match the Mac's 2560 x 1440 resolution

This ASUS PB278Q has been a wonderful display, comparable to my 2015 iMac at the office

Clearly grainy display compared to most LED monitors I've seen because of this, and isn't as bright as it should be.

Very good quality monitor great display and color

Great display and color reproduction, no dead pixels or light leaks.. would have liked a thinner bezel, but thats just picky

My only concern until now is that the monitor has some debris and a fingerprint between the display board and the antiglare protection

Regardless, the display looks absolutely brilliant, even with the anti-glare coating

It was a great display until a design oversight cause some and or ours to spring up rapidly and unexpectedly from a low elevation position to full up causing it to fall face down on the desk

it's fine but 4k display for 3D softwares are useless, text are too small and not customizable

We had a most productive day of coding together, this monitor and I, with its gorgeous bright pixel-dense display

Beautiful display

Overall, this is a great display

It's an outstanding display for a great price.

For the price, it is a very good display so long as it worked and I am sure there are many others who have had a great experience with it

Excellent resolution, extremely great for coding or for gaming, though a bit expensive and you need to make sure you have the right display port cable and video card (and you need to change the settings on the monitor from display port 1.1 to 1.2) before you will get a 60Hz refresh rate

No complaints here, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean display

Awesome 2.5k display for the price, would recommend.

This display is stunning

The stand on this monitor is solid, has an excellent range of motion, and leaves me not worrying that my $400 display is going to topple over.

this 4th one works well just although 1 of the other 3 has a dead display port; still recommend it though

Unfortunately with dark displays (aka a black screen, etc.

This is a very nice display and seems pretty color accurate out of the

I am using a 2014 15" Macbook Pro Retina and the monitor is good but not as good as the actual retina display

The display was terrible and had some sort of bad bleeding/ghosting from the edge, especially on gray colored backgrounds

My display is without problems, no visible defects

This display is working just as well as the day I got it

I love this display!

I get the added benefit of also having a great display for photo editing which I do a ton of

I will continue to use this as my main display unless ASUS customer service replaces it (which they should IMO) or it breaks since it is still a usable display if you do design work like me

it's fine but 4k display for 3D softwares are useless, text are too small and not customizable

This display looks awesome and the monitor that I received has no stuck pixels resulting in a truely beautiful display

We had a most productive day of coding together, this monitor and I, with its gorgeous bright pixel-dense display

I love this display.

it's enormous display, and works well overall, but I was disappointed and felt very misled by the specs

Excellent affordable 4k display

This display feels extremely durable

i have a MAC book late "2012" and it is not able to support the full 4k display of this monitor

Decent display

Regardless, the display looks absolutely brilliant, even with the anti-glare coating

This is the model he recommended based on many factors, including accurate color display, resolution, and the technology used

Beautiful display and works like a champ.

a great display - ergonomics are good, display is bright, response is perfectly acceptable, price is decent, lots of various inputs, etc etc

Gorgeous displays, ordered 2 and both arrived promptly, well packed, and with zero dead or stuck pixels.

Nice Matte-display, which isn't grainy looking

Fantastic display, and great color reproduction

Images are clear and display is responsive.

Beautiful display monitor

It is nearly as good as my Dell 30" IPS display.

This display is excellent and goes head to head with the U2713HM display

I've only had this display a few days, and only had it working for a few hours

It's not as bad as a TN display, but still nowhere near as good as an IPS display.

I bought this monitor because the retina display on my Macbook was making me dissatisfied with 1080p.

Great color• Bright display•

This display has been a huge regret for me

Beautiful display.

The 2560 X 1440 display is beautiful

I really like this display

This display lacks anti-glare... so you'll see some odd reflections/glares when in a dark environment (it is definitely better if I use the "darkroom" preset, but could be better)

The gorgeous display, great stand, and low price of this monitor far exceed any of the minor downsides.

My display has a weird bug however, where pressing the menu button will cause the menu to flash up then instantly go away

I moved from a 23" and 27" Display setup (1080p and 1440p respectively) to just using the PB328Q for an entire year, and I still can say I don't miss my other displays.

I love the display on this monitor and got a great deal on the price after a shipping issue

It touchy though - if I attempt to adjust the tilt while it's on, it will go into one of it's set up modes which is difficult to get out of, or if I touch the HDMI cable, it loses the display.

Great monitor, great matte display.

You can make the display as sharp or smooth as you need dependent on what you are doing with it.

I fought with Switch ResX hoping to get a better display mode, but no luck, and even still I was only getting 30hz.

The display is very nice

Really excellent display with very understated design and a beautiful panel

The built in menu system is pretty easy to navigate with several "Splendid" display modes

Awesome monitor, you can see it from any angle, gorgeous display with no dead pixels!

Display is sharp

**UPDATE****Seems that certain graphics cards dont support 10bit displays even though there is a check box for it in windows

I used the included display port cable and everything was fine for the first 6 weeks, lovely display

A cheap display with IPS technique, a quick response (gray to gray), 23 " and pretty good reviews from other customers

Great display.

Use display port version 1.2 or greater to get higher refresh rates.

It swivels and tilts on the included display stand, which works smoothly and hasn't given me any issues

It took a while to figure out the monitor menu system (click "Menu" twice to get into "settings" - i.e how to set the display port to 1.2) but once it was set up, what an absolutely gorgeous display

Beautiful big display

ON MY GORGEOUS DISPLAY

this display exhibits very noticeable "backlight bleeding" along most of the left-hand side of the screen and "backlight bleeding" at the lower half of the right-hand side of the screen

Very vivid display

The display resumes fine from sleep but you have to move windows back to it

Excellent display

Big complaint: sometimes the display will not wake up from sleep when used with a MacBook Pro

It's a very nice display

Each time the display loses the signal and resumes, the windows in the computer desktop are resized and jumbled

It has a lovely display that seems color accurate, nice resolution, and a good price point

However on the second day I must have unlocked the Abstract Digital Art(TM) feature, which created dark ghostly interlaced displays that persisted even after I unplugged the cable(s)

my beloved Apple Cinema Display died.

It takes and holds calibration, and the display is gorgeous

This is an excellent and somewhat unique display, and it perfectly suits my needs, at least until OLED displays are common and affordable

Very crisp, clear, bright display.

Nice clear/crisp display

Started out with buggy display port (disconnect issues) and completely non working hdmi

Amazing color display.

The display on the Mac was beautiful, so I wanted to use the same technology on the PC.

The one I bought as a gift turned out well and worked as expected but sadly about two years into the life of mine, the darkest black pixels display green

A solid 27" 1440p display.

Thing I like most is the beautiful display, reading long pages is no longer an eyesore.

Love the 27" screen size and 1440p display.

Works great with mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cables and HDMI, but the display has trouble from time to time with waking up.

I connected my monitors with display port and hdmi, no issues at all

This was not the case here, these beautiful IPS displays have very accurate colors and look identical when placed side by side (see attached images)

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if these displays are just that crappy

and this will be a great gaming display, but I hope you are better at figuring out how than I was.

While it's not 5K or even 4K, this display will work well for almost anyone who is looking for a truly QUALITY desktop display.

Display worked for three days and stopped

The only issue is finding the display settings that work for you

Amazing picture, great build quality, great I/O, amazing product for the money

look great as I

I dread ever having to use the menu

Only game I couldn't get past 52fps 4k max settings was the whitcher 3.Anyways, as long as your fine with 60fps, 28"s of gloriusness, and not ips panel, this is the monitor for you

I could not afford a

I can have a lot of documents and programs on the screen, and I can enlarge any given document or program to a very easy-to-read size

Works exactly as I expected as a second monitor + Apple TV feed.

even when booting the screen up a solid black image appears before going to the desktop and right then is when I first noticed the bottom left hand corner was basically glowing as if the screen was only showing a yellow image in that corner

I tried the connection with a different HDMI cable (one I know works as it came from my other monitor) as well as a second computer; neither of these fixed the issue

It is a TN panel which isn't as good as

I like the tilt and height adjustments as they work very well

The monitor isn't nearly as sharp as it is at 4k

For that money i'll just buy a different monitor who doesn't make me spend additional money to work a

The WQHD resolution blew me away as I have a rig with enough processing power to drive the display

Would give it 3 stars for photo work, 4 for general video, but it gets 5 for a being sub-$600 4K that is 90% as good as those costing 3-4x more.

I know some reviews have been hit-or-miss as it relates to product quality (dead pixels, color issues, etc.), but mine came flawless

It's settings and functionality are solid and definitely passible, but the colors and overall video quality aren't quite as vivid as they are on a mac

I've owned this item for approximately 2 months now and have been pleased with the image quality of the screen but have been let down by what I suspect to be the IO failing as the screen randomly displays "no signal" (disconnecting entirely), will flicker on and off quickly, or distort the images being displayed momentarily

There is excellent package protection from Asus but they don't waste extra packaging where they don't need to suck as on the cables.

Both monitors also glow around the edges when the screen is showing black (its not an

You can make the display as sharp or smooth as you need dependent on what you are doing with it.

and I still love it as much as I did the day I bought it
