ASUS ROG Swift PG258Q 24.5” Gaming Monitor Full HD 1080p 1ms 240Hz DP HDMI Eye Care G-SYNC Esports

I read reviews about this monitor arriving broken or having dead pixels and thought surely it wouldnt happen to my monitor, because I assumed that things like that would only happen once or twice to people, but lo and behold my monitor has two dead pixels. They are very small and to be quite honest it seems silly to be upset about it, but given that this is a premium quality monitor and taking into account the price tag I expect it to be flawless. Besides that, the monitor itself is great. It preforms well, gaming looks great, and I wont be able to look at other monitors the same. All in all, I just wanted to warn people there is a possibility that your unit will arrive with one or two dead pixels. While they are small, they are hard not to notice. I want to end this review by recommending this monitor, because it really is stellar, and would get 5 stars if it didnt have these imperfections.

Edit: Ive been using this monitor for a while now and there is no more blurriness, maybe it had something to do with the resolution I was at? But i will still stick by the color comments i made. The whites literally blind the f out of me. The only thing I found impressive about this monitor was the 240hz and the control panel for the settings. Im giving this 3 stars because the colors on this monitor are just not right. Ive tried calibrating it but the whites blind me and if I turn the brightness / gamma down the rest of the colors look to dark. Another problem is no matter what game i play view distances look blurry and the only thing that is clear and crisp is basically a character model in 3rd person or your gun in first person. Ive used a benq 120hz monitor for years and i figured it was time to upgrade to the latest... i shouldve gone with another benq. Even this older monitor thats about 8 years old had more crisp images, no blur and images far away looked amazing and clear. Id like to send this monitor back but I feel like its going to be a huge pain....... I might as well suffer and continue trying to calibrate it.
