Owners keep the XG27AQDMG for a glossy WOLED picture with strong colors and brightness, and many are happy enough to say they would not go back, though some find text less sharp for desk work.
Owners praise the glossy coating. Several compared it with QD-OLED panels or older matte screens and said the glossy WOLED picture looks better, with strong colors and brightness.
Text clarity is a clear complaint among the owners who raised it. One said a mini LED monitor shows sharper text than the OLEDs they have owned, and another finds work text easier to read on their IPS screen than on this Asus.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
What keeps pleasing people is the picture. Owners who came from IPS, VA or QD-OLED screens describe the colors and the glossy finish as the best they have used, and some have kept it for a year or more and still call it awesome. One owner who dislikes purple tones in dark scenes on QD-OLED settled on this panel instead. The stand gets a good word too, and one owner likes that the proximity sensor puts the screen into a resting mode when they step away.
The routine is mostly about looking after an OLED. Owners run pixel cleaning, move windows around and use the protection features, and at least one finds hiding the taskbar annoying and accepts the burn-in risk instead. The adjustments are smaller: a couple of owners find text harder to read than on an IPS screen, so they use another monitor for desk work. One owner who runs it in a dim room turns SDR brightness down and still finds it bright enough. Another had flickering in HDR games, which stopped after changing the HDR setting.
Most of what owners report is about how the panel behaves, not about things breaking. Several say they have never seen image retention, including one who has owned two of these monitors. One owner did get retention and was told by others to return it or ask Asus for a replacement, since a healthy panel should not do that. One owner who is otherwise happy called the firmware somewhat buggy. Owners are divided on burn-in: some worry about it, while others say modern OLEDs are fine with regular pixel cleaning and screen movement. No one in these accounts describes burn-in actually happening.
Long-term accounts are thin. Only a couple of owners mention about a year of use. One is still very satisfied. Another says grey uniformity has slipped a little after a year of careful use, and they now avoid full grey screens and accept that. Beyond that there is little to go on about how the monitor holds up over several years.
Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
23 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
The same owner, asked again at each point. Fills in as owners answer.
Two questions: how long you have had it, and anything you would like to say about it. Then we ask again as it ages. This helps our mission.

Among the 2 owner accounts here that gave a duration, 0 described a failure.
Before you buy one used, ask the seller: how old it is, whether it was ever repaired and by whom, and whether any of the parts above have been replaced. Ask to see it run. A receipt tells you the warranty start date; most makers honour the term only for the first owner.
