Beautiful aluminum design.

5ms might not be quite fast enough for some gamers.

Kitguru says: If you want to upgrade to a new high grade IPS panel then the ASUS Designo MX27AQ should be right at the top of your final list.

This is a smart looking monitor with a great quality panel to match. The lack of VESA mounting will bother a few people, but if you need your monitor to look good on the desk as well as display a quality image, the MX27AQ might be for you.

Excellent image quality. I though my old 24" monitor was good, but when seen side by side this one excels.

It is expensive! No USB ports.

Amazing, fulfilled every desire I had for it

None so far

- Can play any role for your monitor needs: Excellent color-critical work, gaming, document editing, and movie/TV watching - Superior build quality and craftsmanship - Setup is a breeze - Worked even with my old 580gtx at native res - Bright enough to...

- Some very minor backlight bleed...not a deal-breaker or of major concern - No adjustable height....again not a huge problem....just surprising b/c the design/build quality is amazing - Not 144hz.... (maybe not a con b/c I hear its quirky for all...

I love the look of these monitors. I purchased 2 and they look amazing. The attention to quality with ASUS products never disappoints. No blemishes or no dead pixels at all on both monitors. The metal exterior is a welcome design decision, as I am sick...

The color and dynamic range of these monitors are so good that I can no longer use any of my old monitors because they now look washed out.

This monitor is beautiful! My old monitor was a 1080p 23" Samsung. When I have them next to each other, my old one looks like garbage (Dull, blurry, etc..). 1440p IPS and 27" has so much real-estate! Didn't adjust anything out of the box and it still...

I have no cons to report.

1440p is perfect. The scaling is great with windows 8.1. Couldn't be more happy. The aesthetics are stunning as well. No dead pixels. No blemishes everything is perfect.

The box wasn't double boxed. Nothing against the product but come on newegg how are you going to ship a 500$ monitor with no protection or even a fragile sticker.

Bright, rich colors, sharp text. Very Stylish, no bezel/border display Display Port and HDMI connections Sturdy stand

No height adjustment. No big deal for me. Could be cheaper as some 4K displays are in this price range. DP cable way too short.

+Design just looks really clean +Solid Construction, (Metal and Matte surfaces) +IPS panel, colors are glorious +27" @ 1440p seem to be a sweet spot in pixels per inch +Gaming is smooth even at 60hz (using the game Dying Light) +Viewing angles paired...

Note: Mounting options are limited, you have to use the provided mount. That being said the "sun dial" mount they provide is very good but might not be elevated enough for some users.
