The best big-screen 4K OLED gaming monitor

Video Reviews

Honestly, Asus has done a really good job with the ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ and we daresay that it is worth that extra bit of cash for it especially if you’re going to be using it with a PC. Having a DisplayPort is a huge benefit, and so are the other nifty things like a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Hub, the matte coating, the implementation of Uniform Brightness and the fast wake from sleep amongst many other things.

Its peak spot brightness in HDR is 700 nits and it looks just phenomenal!

大画面ブームが来る！？今はまだ高いけど将来絶対流行る！ASUS PG42UQ [超猫拳]

The ASUS ROG SWIFT PG42UQ is the best gaming oled monitor currently available on the market. This product is designed for everyone who has a top of the line configuration, because it fits into it without a problem. The qualities of the ROG SWIFT PG42UQ include superior contrasts and colors, and the high price is justified precisely by the high quality. The only flaw is the size, perhaps a bit excessive for a monitor.

It is a wonderful monitor, with very low response time and a very up-to-date Oled panel. Since it is a monitor, it is great for pc, with the inputs best suited for a mixed pc-console setup

The highlight is the oled technology. The remote control is very useful for navigating the control panel. Very good response time. Price is high but fair for the experience it offers. In conclusion, the PG42UQ offers to date a perfect and unforgettable gaming experience, imposing itself as the best gaming monitor currently available on the market that a fan of adventure, simulation or shooter titles, budget and desk permitting, really cannot give up.

The monitor is absolutely great, color rendition, contrast. For gaming, OLED is definitely worth it, but you need to have a powerful PC setup in mind as well.

How to Choose a Gaming Monitor – Including ASUS ROG and TUF Gaming Range Round-up and Buyers Guide

TechEDT

The ASUS ROG Swift PG42UQ is not a flashy entry to the best gaming monitor list but is brimming with quality. Its unassuming appearance did not deceive gamers, as it packs a punch and provides an amazingly fast gaming monitor. Furthermore, its OLED display is a delight to use for gaming and entertainment because of its inherently limitless contrast, beautiful color, and issue-free lighting. The default setup performed well, and the sRGB emulation mode is decent.

What I like the most about the PG42UQ, though, is that despite its large display real estate, the gaming monitor’s thin frame and its panel don’t feel imposing or that it takes up more space than other monitors of similar size that I have reviewed in the past. For another matter, the fact that it is an OLED HDR panel that virtually makes all the colours come alive and look absolutely more vivid.
