Expert reviews and ratings

The ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP is built for competitive gamers and esports pros, boasting a 480Hz refresh rate and OLED clarity for ultra-responsive gameplay and precise motion handling. It delivers top-tier performance that can provide a competitive edge, though its advanced features and premium price point may be more than most casual gamers need.

The ASUS PG27AQDP is remarkable for PC gaming. With a high 480Hz refresh rate, it's a fantastic choice for most PC gamers, and it supports any VRR format to reduce screen tearing. Motion looks incredibly sharp thanks to its fast response time, and it has low input lag with most refresh rates, except for 60Hz signals, where it increases. On top of that, it delivers incredible picture quality with deep blacks and bright highlights. However, there are some downsides, as it has noticeable VRR flicker with changing frame rates. The monitor's software also has a lot of bugs, causing settings to change randomly or not work altogether.

The ASUS PG27AQDP is one of the best gaming monitors currently available thanks to its OLED panel with instantaneous response time speed, rapid 480Hz refresh rate, BFI support up to 240Hz, an infinite contrast ratio and wide color gamut, which ensures both buttery-smooth gameplay and immersive viewing experience.

Clearly it’s aimed primarily at gaming and dynamic content though. A few modern features are left off, presumably to help keep retail price down and probably to more firmly position this as a gamers screen. There’s no USB type-C connection, KVM support, PiP/PbP or integrated speakers on this model keep in mind. The accuracy of the screen was very good with a flexible and easy to use sRGB mode too, along with uniform brightness for desktop applications.
