ASUS ROG STRIX XG279Q Monitor Review - Product Showcase

Design and ergonomics

Asus ROG Strix XG279Q has a frameless design with a high-tech stand and backside. The main color scheme is charcoal shades. The plastic in which the matrix is encased is solid, odorless or free of parasitic backlashes. The stand is metal with an insert of dark-cherry aluminum, has three propeller shapes, and one of the legs is short. This was done in order to make the monitor use of the working space on the table as efficiently as possible. But in any case the depth of the table should be not less than 70cm, otherwise, the monitor may be too close to eyes. The manufacturer's logo took its place in the central part of the case. You have to give credit, it all looks very noble even on a red lacquered tree.

 

 

Three of the four frames of the screen's edging are hidden under a protective polymer covering the matrix. They are about 5 mm thick. The lower frame is about 21mm thick, made of rough plastic and aluminum triangle inserts, slightly protruding from the screen. A ventilation grille is located on top of the monitor along the whole length.

 

 

On the rear side of Asus ROG Strix XG279Q has a combination of several diagonally connected decors. One of the diagonals has a huge RGB ROG logo in the form of an owl's eye, of course, the monitor falls under the Strix label, and its mythology means a legendary creature of ancient Roman mythology; Strix (genus), the genus of large "earless" wood-owls. What a h00t eh?

 

 

The backlight is quite gentle, capable of creating a light background light. With this solution, ASUS has killed two birds with one stone: the beauty and comfort of the optic nerve, which needs smooth light transitions. Connection interfaces are hidden under a special cap, which can be easily removed if necessary.

 

 

In the center, there is a multifunctional hinge, which allows you to adjust the monitor as the tilt level (within +20 ~ 5 °) and give the screen a vertical orientation.

 

 

The rotation is horizontal: +40°~-40°. The screen height adjustment rail built into the monitor's main leg is quite tight. In case of touching the monitor will not allow it to change its position. The range of displacement is not small and is 0~120 mm. The mount of a VESA 100x100 standard is also left in place.
