Hi, sorry I know this is a fairly old post but I have to say that I absolutely do not understand some of the things said here.
Especially compared to one of the most horrible monitors I've had and which is the Asus VG259QM, clearly I can't agree!
To start, Bijan Jamshidi on Youtube is one of the only ones to have been honest with this, but the colorimetry on this IPS and on this Auo Optronics Fast-IPS 240hz panel is just terrible. (the same panel as in the Alienware AW2521HF/Dell S2522HG and other MSI/ACER 240hz etc) even with a thorough calibration, nothing correct comes out and the colors are clearly not natural, especially the green and the red...compared has a Zowie XL2546K, even the white was more pure white on the Zowie, weird (I had 4 VG259QM)
And also I don't agree when you talk about the response time and the feeling in games, maybe on paper the response time is "better", sure.
But in reality it's really not incredible....I don't know anyone in the esports world who has kept this screen because of the various problems they offer, an OSD worse than Zowie / the response time in game ( I'm talking about the in-game feeling, not on the "paper" tests) the Zowie clearly feels smoother, responsive and MUCH less blurry, it's only my feelings but many share this point of view (and I'm not talking about strobing mode but just overdrive high on zowie)
Everything is more pleasant, it's clearly obvious, or am I allergic to this Asus? in France this monitor is not bad buy by many players wanting to try the 240hz but the opinions are often negative.
Clearly for those who have had this Asus, really, how can you say it's good? for me it's just one of the worst i've had with the HP X 27 OMEN....i can't believe some people think it's excellent, i clearly can't play it properly.
I didn't have the VG258QM but when you look at the Rtings image you can clearly see that the letters of the Rtings logo are bigger and blurrier on the VG259QM compared to the VG258QM.
I understand that people want IPS, unfortunately the IPS 1080p 240hz have such mediocre colors...nothing to do with the 1440p Quantum Dots IPS in 240hz AUO Optronic found on the Acer XV272UX for example.
So for me if the colors aren't amazing (by the way I couldn't see well in the dark on the VG259QM compared to an XL2546k) and the motion blur isn't that amazing...I can't recommend IPS in 1080p 240hz in 2022, TN is still the best in terms of GtG motion blur (without strobing)
I'm sure the XL2566K will get a lot of people excited.
in conclusion for me IPS is only for 1440p now, the only 1080p 240hz 25inch which i found "good" is the ROG Strix XG259CM even if it's clearly not perfect for me personally.
anyway you have a lot of TN that is very good like the : XL2540K / XL2546K / VG258QM / XG258Q
Sorry, that wasn't a negative comment, I really wanted to state my opinion.
