Designed with professional gamers in mind, the Asus TUF Gaming VG28UQL1A monitor comes with a few Asus-exclusive technologies that keep it relevant in a period when its refresh rate of 144 Hz places it in the mid-range sector of the market. However, there are quite a few other highlights that make it a tempting deal, especially given the discounted price of US$599 (down from US$749).
In addition to the aforementioned refresh rate, this 28-inch Fast IPS gaming monitor comes with 3,840 X 2,160 pixels, 1 ms GtG refresh, 178-degree viewing angles, 300 nits typical brightness, as well as native 4K 120 Hz support without chroma subsampling on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles via HDMI 2.1. The monitor is adjustable in height, tilt, swivel, and pivot, with VESA wall mounting support available as well.
DisplayHDR 400 compliance, 90% DCI-P3 and 120% sRGB color gamut, G-Sync, FreeSync Premium, Asus-exclusive Variable Overdrive and Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync (ELMB Sync) are also present in the list of specs and features. There are also two speakers present (2 W each), and the list of connectivity options includes two HDMI 2.1 and two HDMI 2.0 ports, a single DP 1.4 DSC, a pair of USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and one 3.5 mm headphone jack.
The retail package is generous, including a DP cable, an HDMI Ultra High Speed cable, as well as one USB 3.0 cable alongside the monitor, power adapter, power cord, and the quick start guide. The Asus eStore has the TUF Gaming VG28UQL1A listed for the same price as Amazon's discounted price, so if the Amazon deal below is no longer available when you bump into this article, you might want to check out that page as well (link available in the first paragraph).
