I purchased this monitor for my new pc, wanting an excellent viewing experience, but I was trepidatious because of the notable QC issues that have been persistent for years with this particular monitor

.. let me add a perspective, without discounting actual QC issues

I read and read about monitors before finally deciding on this monitor despite people reporting major QC issues.

I had no QC issues, at least for now

Was hoping the QC issues would be resolved by now given over a year since item is out

Okay now that I am done with the negatives on the QC issues I will go over all the nice features this monitor has to over

Assuming of course that ASUS can solve the QC issues that they seem to be having, this is the new flagship gaming monitor

I say "unfortunately" because if you spend a hot second reading reviews online, you'll see a ton of comments about QC issues

If you want one of these I would wait until all the QC issues are fixed

The top of the line IPS panel that ASUS is charging for should not have all the QC issues this thing has

A few cons are the colors (which is an expected trade off) and a minor qc issue.

Even though this monitor has some major QC issues it took my a good 30 minutes of mulling it over to decide on RMAing because of how good it really is.

Aside from the QC issue, I'd give this an easy five stars.

lying).Minus any QC issues, the ASUS PG279Q, on the other hand, is a revelation (especially when using G-Sync at 144hz or 165hz) and works very well for video/graphic editing as well (which I do on the side)

There have been many mixed reviews stemming from QC issues, but ASUS has posted that they have improved their process

Monitor is fantastic jack of all trades panel but the QC issues are still somewhat present

I've returned all 3 because of qc issues

i guess they already fix the QC issue on this item.

just coming late into the game where most of the QC issues other reviewers have been given have been resolved

This is the same price as a 55" TV from Samsung which I almost guarantee won't have the same qc issues

At least now it would seem the QC issues with the PG279Q's are solved, and although not the latest generation of monitor, these are really a wonderful product.

No QC issues to be found.

Don't think the new patch has fixed the QC issue

These monitors panels are notorious for their QC issues

I'm glad I stick with what I k pw and trust in Asus

I still have to wait for this thing to warm up as I just got it about an hour ago, so we'll see if I have to update this review if my third unit starts bleeding.

Don't let the E-sports endorsements fool you, this is a poorly made product.
