Amazing Monitor by BigD on newegg.com Jun 25, 2012
I use this monitor with 2 antec soundscience halo 6 led backlights. Helps reduce the overall brightness of the monitor. Probably will add 2 more to reduce it even more. Very helpful that I can plug in a 4 port USB hub into one the ports and power ...
 
Almost flawless by Jim Boles on amazon.com May 21, 2012
I've had my Pro Art for over a year. I do a lot of photo editing and other graphics and was very concerned about a relatively cheap monitor. As you know a good monitor use to cost thousands of dollars. I also was concerned about the 98% reproduction of ...
 
Great monitor! by ArtRagerEast on bhphotovideo.com Sep 28, 2011
The brightness, clarity and color accuracy are phenomenal. The adjustability is excellent. I'm planning to get a colorimeter to a calibrate it, but there's no hurry b/c it is so good right out of the box. Sure, cheaper models are all around, ...
 
Great Monitor by artsupreme on overstock.com Jul 30, 2011
The ASUS arrived without any dead pixels and seems to be a great monitor with tons of options for adjustment/calibration. I would recommend this IPS monitor at this price point.
 
-Does what's required, but very well. by SuprX on cnet.com Dec 8, 2011
For its quality of function, I am considering a second purchase, though may wait for price; this monitor is currently selling for nearly $100 more than it was a few months ago-

Be prepared to return your unit by Siro Mateos Rosa "little apprentice" on amazon.com Jun 19, 2012
Inspect closely your unit upon receiving it. Use an all-black, all-white, and all-grey image to check for bad pixels, light leaks and color tints. Mine has some hot semi-pixels (barely noticeably), one black hole, some light leak on the bottom right corner, ...
 
Great monitor backed by a worthless company by triscuit on newegg.com Nov 11, 2011
While it is an awesome product, beware of ASUS and their fake warranty. If you still want this product, then go for it, but trust me, you don't want to deal with ASUS and their less than caring support team. If they really valued their customers, especially ...
 
Great picture, crippling defect - screen may flicker badly by Subjugator on amazon.com Apr 20, 2012
I was amazed by the quality of the picture after I hooked this monitor up to my PC - sharp image, clean, vibrant colors, surpassing even my trusty old IBM CRT in depth and contrast! Unfortunately, my perception of this monitor was about to change. After ...
 
dead pixels everyone? love and hate it. by peggle on newegg.com Jun 22, 2011
There are no other choices, The dell equivalent has horrible reviews with an even worse, in my opinion, QC problem. If you want an IPS monitor maybe the smaller screens have less QC trouble? Once you have this monitor you hate giving it back... its ...
 
Do Not Buy by N/A on newegg.com Jun 3, 2011
I bought this monitor as part of a new build for home/gaming PC. In retrospect this was probably not the right monitor for my purposes but it was very nice and I would have kept it if not for the bad pixel. It's been several years since I bought a monitor ...
