Reviewer score 42% (normalized by Neofiliac)ASUS MX279HS is an alright monitor for most uses. It has a large size but the 1080p resolution can be limiting. It can't get very bright so it's more suitable for a dim room. The low input lag offers a responsive gaming experience but there are no advanced gaming features.
Pros
- Excellent gray uniformity
- Low input lag
- Very responsive
- High refresh rate
Cons
- Can't get very bright
- Mediocre ergonomics
- No advanced gaming features
