Conclusion
ASUS’ MX279H isn’t one of the best 27 inch IPS displays we’ve ever come across. But in this case it wasn’t the manufacturers intention. This display is much more about price/performance rather than just price. It’s great that there is an AH-IPS panel but still we think that 1080p is not enough for a 27 inch panel. 1440p is the perfect resolution for such a display and everything that is below is a serious compromise. A display which features excellent design and comes with a “Bang & Olufsen” badge, should be more about performance than just price. Never the less, it’s a really good looking thing and if you want a display that looks very nice on a desktop, that features a decent AH-IPS panel but you don’t care about the FullHD resolution, then the MX279H might be the right monitor for you to choose.
