Asus Hatsune Miku Monitor: Worth the Collab Premium?

Doesn't look like anything special. We've had 1440p 240Hz-ish monitors for a few years now, and this doesn't really break the mold. There is a Hatsune Miku version of this monitor that looks cool, but probably not worth the likely insane asking price.

meh not willing to spend $400+ on a monitor that isn't an oled. this at $249 / $299 would be cool

I think GamerNexus did a review for something similar? It was definitely not worth it for the hardware. There is likely more than $1000 price premium for the theme. But if you want the themed parts then you have to pay the price.

It's good. Just not at that price point. You can get an oled with the same specs for the same amount.

Pretty sure it's obvious that this monitor is priced as it is cause it's a Hatsune Miku collab.

I moved on to only checking out Oleds

I felt this way about the X27ACS but the X27ACG feels better on my eyes. The X27ACS I guess I got used to after a few days but I did see a bunch of people complaining about eye fatigue, but I ended up returning it due to having random horizontal flickering lines.

I just checked the site there is firmware available to download for ACG now but i wanted to know are you still loving it and have you faced any issues with it in 6 months? Also how are the colours and entertainment experience on it? I am planning to buy one.

Im not OP but it was already confirmed in some other comments that someone tested the vrr and confirmed the monitor does indeed has it.

Guys here now selling it for insane price of $1200

Overpriced ASUS monitor, not worth the buy. Plenty of 240Hz 1440p monitors out there...

isn't it just a bump in refresh rate? The XG27ACS & G variants were 180hz...this is 260hz with higher price mostly similar performance.

This isn't worth buying since it doesn't even have ELMB 2 from asus, OLEDs are nice but they have VRR flicker which ruins Gsync altogether and then you either have to use no Vsync with tearing, Vsync with input lag and studder or using some obscure sync method like scan-line sync from riva tuner just to avoid tearing.

The Miku edition will have ELMB

Meh, depends on the price. I have a bunch of monitors and as long as its a tn/ips/oled with low latency and low/no ghosting its fine.

No doubt that is ok monitor but paying 361 USD for 1440p IPS in 2025 is insanity.

I just bought this monitor and half debating on returning it because it feels super intense on the eyes.

I bought this monitor, but it had bad contrast and backlight bleed issues, one corner was bleeding backlight quite bad. Returned monitor. Other than that nice crispy image, great colours, gaming was fluid.

Good to know the Asus is a decent monitor, just definitely on the expensive side compared to other brand's equally specced stuff.

I didn't have any issues but returned it and took a chance with the AOC Q27G3XMN 27" QHD Mini LED Monitor. This one is better. It's brighter at 550 nits in SDR, and the colors pop more. It has no faded corners or horizontal lines or flickering, like literally, 0 issues.

It's severely overpriced (especially the Miku 5080, whose MSRP is basically almost on par with normal 5090 MSRP). You should only get into it if you're a die-hard Miku fan and you're willing to overpay for parts to have full Miku set.

If the price is not too far apart, and you love Miku, I'd totally go for it. Otherwise I'd just build my own and theme it myself.

I guess it depends on where you are... IMO, the upcharge is way too great compared to prices near me. I can build a 5090 build for about $750-$1k less using the same components where reasonable.

Hi! Can you suggest OLED 2k 240Hz monitor for the same amount? I found 26.5" MSI MAG 274QP QD-OLED X24 monitor but it cost 1/3 more than this.

Thank you, I bought it recently and it does have it. Thank you

where did you even find the miku parts, could only find one guy selling it on ebay that wasn't an obv scam

No oled = No buy
