What customers say about "Key Specs"

ASUS MX25AQ Monitor WQHD

1080P - Comfortable with me, but not the highest resolution you can find on these kinds of panels.
The resolution perfectly syncs with the resolution on my Mac so I didn't need to adjust any settings straight out of the box.
This is perfect for my purposes, which is working full time. I do data entry all day, every day. This monitor has built in blue light filters, which my eyes thank me for. The size is perfect, resolution crisp.
This is an excellent monitor - beautiful color and wonderful resolution. My only complaint is that it seems to have a long "warm up" time.
The only cons for this monitor are sometimes the color seems off, the response time is not the fastest, and it doesnt always autoscan stretched 100% edge-to-edge at all resolutions.

ASUS PB258Q WQHD IPS Eye Care Monitor

Viewing size and resolution is excellent.
This display is a great buy for anyone that is looking for a high resolution screen that isn't enormous.
The resolution on a screen that size looks purely amazing.
The screen restate is so nice, I love the 2K resolution.
Love it, I really do. The resolution is great.

What customers say about "Display"

ASUS MX25AQ Monitor WQHD

Amazing monitor - love it, picture is crisp and colors are brilliant. More menu features built-in than I know what to do with.
You get the IPS benefits you expect: vibrant color, great viewing angles, perfect brightness and contrast.
The color and contrast is perfect out of the box, but I did dial back the brightness a bit.
Great color, contrast and clarity. I like the soft matte of the screen compared to glossy for photo editing. Easy to use menu structure and a bonus, it looks great.
Not the quickest response times - will probably only irritate hardcore gamers.

ASUS PB258Q WQHD IPS Eye Care Monitor

Everything is crystal clear and the colors really pop.
Viewing angles are very nice, you can tell it is a quality IPS panel.
I was impressed with its brightness, sharpness, and color replication.
This monitors colors are very vibrant. I like it.
This monitor has equally a sharp of a picture and beautiful color.

What customers say about "Features"

ASUS MX25AQ Monitor WQHD

Stable stand, beautiful silver/black design.
As for the speakers - it just merely provides sound. Nothing more.
The speakers were surprisingly good, better than I was expecting. They won't fill a room, but for moderate personal sound they're more than enough.
The built in speakers do their job, but if sound quality is a concern to you, you will want to use a different audio option.
No height adjustment or VESA mounting

ASUS PB258Q WQHD IPS Eye Care Monitor

Dell Monitors also have a USB hub built in which is a nice feature.
Stand features such swivel, tilt, height adjustment, etc. just work.
Besides its outstanding display quality, I really appreciate its eye care feature.
Great monitor with tons of features.
Works great. Love the blue light filter option.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

ASUS MX25AQ Monitor WQHD

Dual HDMI input - PC and an additional media source like a PS3, Blu-ray player, etc.
HDMI Audio passthrough with headphone port if your graphics card allows it - Good for plugging in headphones when playing games, especially if using a console.
Plenty of HDMI inputs. And it has wonderful audio outputs.
Very upset by the lack of DVI connector.

ASUS PB258Q WQHD IPS Eye Care Monitor

Purchased this for my Mac Book Pro 2012 Retina with HDMI connection. Very happy.
I love how this monitor comes with a plethora of connection options. HDMI, DVI, and DisplayPort.
A very high resolution, crystal clear display, easy connect.
Includes input cables for every type of connection the monitor accepts.
Gaming is very fast with no issues. But connect is not durable. HDMI not working.
