Asus Rog 17 Inch Portable Monitor

[Lithium-Ion] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m usually get used to good laptop specifications with long term usability at the expense of carrying some extra weight everyday. It was about time to update my 5-year old 15-inch laptop and was looking for PC with good computing power but with a bigger screen as sometimes I tend multitask a lot. I found this 17-inch LG laptop with the specifications I needed but was hesitant as I didn’t know how portable a 17- inch laptop would be. When I received it I realized this is way more portable than my previous machine. It is way lighter with a better screen. I immediately opened all the 15 tabs I am used to without any performance issues. Speakers are good but could be slight better. In general. I am pretty happy with my purchase. I was able to find a laptop with quite big screen and numeric keyboard without compromising on portability as the weight is perfect while traveling.

[Yes, HDR10] I bought this monitor to connect to my ASUS ROG Ally handheld gaming computer. And it displayed a beautiful picture. I am extremely impressed with this monitor, in every way. I especially am enjoying the curved screen and edge to edge display. Thank you LG!

[Aluminum, Steel] I've been very pleased with this mount. I have it holding up an ASUS ROG Swift PG43UQ, which is a little over 31 lbs. Setup is very easy overall, and the mount is definitely beefy, but it does require a good bit of force to set a monitor of this size where you want it and prevent any drooping. Once you get it set, though, it's fantastic to free up the desk space and be able to float your monitor in a position you wouldn't be able to with a stand. I'm using the bolt-through mounting option, so can't speak to the clamp method, but with bolt-through, this thing isn't going anywhere!

[27"] Ever since I purchased an ASUS ROG laptop I have fallen in love with this company. I’m in the middle of a PC build and wanted this monitor to get me through my final goal. And I have to say the quality and the detail of this monitor is incredible. It compliments my ROG zephyrus perfectly. This will be my go to brand for current and future builds.

[Yes, 2x 2 W] This is my 2nd Asus Rog Strix 27AQ monitor. Loved my first one so much bought a 2nd one for my new build Package was deliver in good condition. This is my first time dealing with Bh and was a good experience.

[31.5"] This panel is in several different models from different manufacturers so really what you're buying is feature set surrounding the panel, and the support system go with it. Colors are beautiful out of the box and calibration is spot on. ASUS Supports an explicit 3 year burn in warranty, which is excellent. Gives me the ease of mind to use this monitor as a monitor, without feeling the need to have to baby it.

For me the glossy-like coating is perfect and allows for deep inky blacks and sharp text. Lots of opinions out there about the best coating, this one being more on the glossy side. Asus support has been great, I just installed the update for Dolby Vision HDR and that has been working without a problem. The last differentiating factor for me when shopping was the KVM / USB-C output. I have a Macbook Pro of the M1 variety which typically doesn't play nice with HDMI at high refresh rates, so having a single cable out that contains my peripherals, with auto detect swapping, has been awesome. Other bells and whistles like monitor alignment / FPS gimmicky things (crosshairs etc) are all there and function. One feature I was really happy with was the proximity sensor. Wasn't even on my radar while shopping, but having the panel turn off when I walk away is a great idea.

[Gold] I attached it to my new 32 inch Asus monitor.It works fast and accurate.

[1 oz (28.35 g)] Laptop fits my ASUS ROG. that's it's primary task

[99% Adobe RGB] I use the EIZO CG2700X for printing high resolution 13x19 inch deep sky, solar and planetary photos with a Canon Pro9000 MarkII printer. After using several different monitors in the last 20 years I have found the EIZO to be the easiest to setup, having the best written and video documentation for color management and most importantly the most accurate soft proofing from monitor screen to finished print. The built in color calibration tool is fast, easy to use and performs flawlessly. I am extremely pleased with the purchase.  Before purchasing the EIZO from B&H I had initially purchased the ASUS 31 inch OLED monitor from B&H a couple of weeks before. Long story short the ASUS monitor had a known hardware defect, according to a phone call placed to ASUS technical support. It was returned to B&H photo two weeks after purchase.   In reviewing the EIZO monitor I find that a comparison with the recently purchased ASUS monitor to be the most relevant. The LED OLED display on the ASUS monitor was definitely more eye popping than the EIZO LED monitor, which would be expected . That being said, everything else about the EIZO monitor- Color calibration, ease of setup, detailed documentation, and most importantly everything works right out of the box without any known hardware issues simply leaves the ASUS monitor in its dust in my opinion. The EIZO monitor is definitely designed for professional use in a photographic printing environment, while the ASUS monitor, once the hardware issues are fixed, is designed for looking at stunning images on the screen that can’t be duplicated on photographic paper. In fact the screen display of the ASUS monitor convinced me that my next television is definitely going to be OLED. And last but not least, thank you B&H photo for the fabulous customer service that I’ve received over the years on every single purchase.
