Product Overview

ViewSonic XG251G is a mainstream 25-inch FHD gaming monitor in ViewSonic's 2021 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit IPS panel that reaches a maximum refresh rate of 360Hz.
Notably, this monitor supports HDR up to DisplayHDR 400. 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.
Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.
