The monitor is well suited to play or for video, response time, contrast, color reproduction for this price range at a good level. Now for the less good side of ASUS: When writing and reading contrast waste and the color distortion bothers me tremendously. When 16: 9 aspect ratio of a TN panel affects the right and left of course the stronger! These uneven illuminations coming on the sides with my device particularly strong left, right where you often looking. For me, the monitor left over the entire bar has a much lighter stripes - the hidden downright. Processing and surface: it is not adjustable in height, the status is shaky, reflects the piano lacquer and / or delivering any Commissioner fingerprints that this looks even without a magnifying glass.
