Product Overview

Asus TUF Gaming VG259Q is a mainstream 25-inch FHD gaming monitor in Asus's 2019 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit IPS panel.

The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. With a fast 1 ms response time, this display is a good gaming option. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.

In terms of drawbacks, this monitor lacks HDR support. Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.

ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QM provides a responsive and smooth gaming experience with its low input lag and high refresh rate. Its wide viewing angles and outstanding ergonomics make it easier to share work or content. Sadly, while it does support HDR, it can't display a wide color gamut and lacks local dimming. The screen may be too small for some, especially for multitasking.
