So Glad i went for the VG27AQL3A instead, it can go up to 400 nits on HDR mode unlike the VG27AQ3A that can only go up to 250 nits which make the hdr and 2k reso of it kinda pointless.
So I just ordered 3 Of the Asus Monitors for a 3 monitor setup got each monitor for 160$ because of Amazons Black Friday deals and my employee discount so I’m super excited to see how this setup plays out
I'm curious what is the prize difference between these two in your local store? Cause that particular LG model is significantly expensive than Asus here
If you are color picky or you do productivity aside from gaming you should choose LG, it's pre calibrated so you wont have to tinker it so much and it is much more color accurate since it is nano-ips. I am using both asus and LG and as much as I want to stick with one brand for multiple monitor setup, I just cant ignore the performance and the satisfaction it gives me.
This is a meaningless paragraph. Asus uses a variety of panels for their products so each Asus monitor has their own panels with different color settings, calibration. Pick the one with a good panel, not the brand
@@doggydoggy578 you said meaningless paragraph but you don't understand what I was saying. Yes, Asus uses different panels, this model uses IPS tech. In fact, every brand in the monitor industry supplies monitors with different panels and technology so I don't get why you said that I was saying are meaningless. The fact is all tests and all reviewers point out that when these two specific monitors go head to head the LG one is more accurate color wise since it has nano-ips technology and it was already pre-calibrated according to the industry standard if you know the terms for it then you are might familiar with the words like sRGB, NTSC, Adobe, etc etc. Plus I have these two specific monitors and I do graphic design and video editing with the side of gaming so I know what I am talking about hence I said that "as much as I would love having both monitors comes from the same brand, I can't simply ignore the performance of the other". But I agree with picking a monitor tho not because of the brand, so as equally important in choosing a monitor that would fit your needs.
Wow thanks buddy for all the feedback. Yes that all very true. I chose thr LG just because it look nicer and thr colors had a but more pop to my eyes. The build quality as well is better. The Asus is still a great monitor for thr price. So you definitely know better then me on these 2 more sure.
Yes it great for Cinema. no its not dark at all. but if you need a brighter picture you should go with the lg its slightly brighter or Samsung. thanks for watching
@@doggydoggy578 wow so you gonna return it to get the LG 850? Yeah the ASUS should be at least over 300 nits for that price point but its still a good monitor. MY LG 850 is a killer just a all around fanatic picture image.
@@paulrakis nah Im gonna get the LG 27GN800 because it is the only monitor I can get right now. Low brightness is something I cannot stand, I've been using the VG27AQ3A for a few days and despite multiple attempts to calibrate it, I just cannot get it to look right. If its not at least 350 nits, it aint worth it
Sure brightness was at 80 same as asus I think. It's bright ans in the evening it's usually at 70. The setting is the factory set the frist one. So it's HDR.
Hey, when you use the asus monitor, what hz settings does it allow you to put it at in the Windows control panel? If you could list the increments that would be very helpful. Thanks!
@@doggydoggy578really low nits in monitor hurt eyes and why? Cuz I’m confused between lg and asus, i see asus have better color and black but 250 nits, and lg have 400 nits but color Not attractive, and I see people say lg monitor color is more realistic, so I don’t have any idea about best choice 😞
@@aavv3623 dude just follow this guy and get the LG, it might be more expensive than the asus but you wont regret it in the long run. By now I have gotten used to 250nit but I wish I could have a higher nit brightness monitor
@@aavv3623 My G241V has 250nits and I sit with the screen 20 inches from my eyes, no problem if you have backlighting behind your monitor. I see comments and reviews on newer models saying they are too bright with no option to dim them. Too bright = migraine Too dim = eye strain
Yeah alittle of your in a brighter room. Or just playing games durring the day alot. But it's does the Job with no problem. It's a really amazing Monitor for the price.
@@paulrakisman you trick me, in the video I cant see the brightness gap very well but since I brought myself home a VG27AQ3A its so fucking bad to use omg, way to dim and dull, white text looks faded and hdr mode is not working properly. 250nits in 2023 should be a crime, fk Asus dirty chinese brand
I'm confused you say Asus is not hdr400 but it clearly says HDR 400 in the specs. Edit: I see now that I was looking at VG27AQL3A I just bought one and asked to return as it has horrible IPS glow... HDR is not worth the marketing unless you have oled monitor
I own the Asus, was very happy with it until yesterday, there seems to be a problem with the power supplies, they only last 4 years. lucky that you can buy them separately.
Yes, I like it, it cost me $50 to replace power supply, but now is like new. If i was to buy another monitor I'd probably be looking into 4k OLED monitors.
Yes the Asus has built in speakers only 2W but I had them off in the video. Only sound was coming from the LG speakers which I plug into the back of monitor.
I can't decide between this Asus vg27aq3a or the Samsung Odyssey g5 flat IPS panel version, the asus is 60$ more expensive where I can buy them, can someone with knowledge tell me which one is the better buy please?
This is the kind of review that I prefer more, a comparison between 2 product on the same price range or specs. Great content!
Thanks, buddy. I appreciate it. Happy holidays

what about asus tuf vg249ql3a vs vg249q.. what would be your opinion which one shoud i get?
Great review.

hi! this might be irrelevant but, LG GP850-B or ROG Strix XG27ACS?? just having a difficult time looking for good comparison reviews between the two
Is this Asus monitor good for cinema? Is it too dark?
Yes it great for Cinema. no its not dark at all. but if you need a brighter picture you should go with the lg its slightly brighter or Samsung. thanks for watching
Yeah its too dim imo (bought one myself)

ASUS LOWEST BRIGHTNESS IN NITS ?
yes i was a bit lower i think maybe 250-300 max compared to the LG which is 400
In the ASUS screen a gloss or more of a matte finish or kind of in between?
What brightness settings do you use on the lg? And did you do special calibration? If so can you share the settings?
Sure brightness was at 80 same as asus I think. It's bright ans in the evening it's usually at 70. The setting is the factory set the frist one. So it's HDR.
When I turn off the computer, does the monitor turn off on its own or do I have to press a button on the monitor?
It will go into standby and will start again when an input source is active.
Do both of them work with nvidia gsync?

Everything from 60-180.
nice video, i buy asus, better price and black color
