But it works, and the build quality overall is pretty good. Almost all the exposed surfaces are plastic of some kind, no metal stands or anything like that, and a lot of it is just your standard basic black plastic. It's a lot more subtle than their crazy ROG designs with RGB lighting and weird patterns all over the place, but it's still definitely a gamer-oriented aesthetic with red highlights and hard angles.
This is also one of the few monitor designs from Asus in the past few years that I actually like. But when you are offering these specs at below $500, it seems like everyone wanting to buy a monitor is taking notice. Some of their high-end ROG products may seem a little overpriced considering there's so much competition. We like that Asus is taking a more aggressive stance on value with these TUF Gaming products. That puts it about $70 below one of our editors' choice monitors, the LG 27GL850, while costing about $80 more than something like the budget-oriented ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD. For $430, this is a very competitive offering in today's market, especially for the 165Hz refresh rate and feature set. The third reason, and this is crucial to the overall picture. The next factor is it includes a feature called ELMB-Sync, which for the first time allows you to use adaptive sync variable refresh rates and blur-reducing backlight strobing at the same time. It's one of those things that ticks a lot of boxes.
That's the sweet spot for resolution, refresh rate and panel technology for gaming right now. The Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQ is a hot item at the moment and we believe this is due to a combination of factors.
