Pretty happy with my purchase, it performs very well. Value for money.
Paid 1k for it on Shopee 12.12, comparable monitors with the same specs were 1.4~1.7k then, e.g. the Asus VG27AQL1A was 1.6k+ on 12.12
You might want to look out for it on the next sale.

I wrote an in-depth review about it, if you want to know more.

Thank you for your review.

I just purchase Lenovo G27Q-20 from Lazada around 1.1K instead of Dell S2721DGF as I worry the colour oversaturation may cause my eye strain. sad.gif

1. G27q-20 is 165hz, 5hz difference is very minor

2. HDR400 is not "true" HDR, and the edge-lit local dimming on VG27AQL1A is bad. If you want to experience HDR, I think go for HDR600~1000 certified monitors.

3. Lenovo only has height and tilt adjustment, so the ASUS is better in this aspect, but it depends on the user, whether you need the swivel, pivot features.

4. Most external speakers will be much better than the inbuilt 2W speakers, imo this is pretty useless. USB ports can be useful. 

5. Problem with 130% sRGB mode is that it makes colours over-saturated and inaccurate, because most content is created with 100% sRGB in mind and Windows cannot display the colours properly in 130% mode.

So if you feel that you need the extra features, you should go ahead and pick the ASUS. I just recommend the Lenovo as I think it is a good monitor at its price point that fulfils most users' needs, whereas the ASUS costs a lot more for features that won't see much use.
