Asus PA248Q review: Asus PA248Q

The Asus PA248Q doesn't quite match last year's PA246Q in performance, but that's to be expected. The PA246Q sported a more expensive panel capable of displaying more colors.

The Asus PA248Q is a low-priced IPS monitor that doesn't skimp on performance or features.

The Asus PA248Q offers very good performance, useful OSD features, ample ergonomic options, and an impressive assortment of connections; Its sub-$350 price is icing on an already tasty cake.

The monitor can't duplicate the high color performance of its predecessor.

Asus PA248Q

A feature-packed high-quality IPS monitor with some clever designer-focussed features

Asus PA248Q/QJ

A look at the 24" standard gamut, 16:10 aspect PA248Q and PA248QJ screens. Aimed at colour critical work mainly, but with all-round performance of IPS technology.

Good range of stand adjustments and additional USB 3.0 ports; Low lag and pretty decent response times for gaming; Good contrast ratio and black depth for an IPS panel

PWM used for backlight dimming; Older style AG coating may be too grainy for some people; Factory calibration didn't offer much; and hard to correct default gamma and white point
