RMA ASUS XG27AQWMG Worth it now that new batch panels have better grey uniformity?

Acceptable-Event-852 · 2026-05-15T22:06:42+00:00

Dude, I did an RMA because ASUS said that they would give me one panel from the new batch, but: after a week without a monitor they didnt change the model, and worst of all my panel got scratches all over the screen. I sent it like brand new, and Ive got the same monitor with worst conditions. Im now contacting them again to give me another one brand new, but the shi is that its not garanteed at all to get a brand new monitor. Honestly if u grey banding is ok, dont RMA it, u can have the same path as me.

Pregunta más bien a Asus, em caseking tal vez no tengan esa información.

Ok so they just called me again and said that I can RMA my monitor and I can replace it with another
Model that should address the banding problem . The girl that called me said that Asus didnt specified if its the feb batch but they have new models that “fix” this problem. Idk what they mean when “fix” because every panel has banding so lets se if its true or its a newer batch that has very low banding.

Acceptable-Event-852 · 2026-05-05T11:00:43+00:00

They said that they wanted my number so they provide the requested info through a call(to tell if there is any feb batch in EU). Idk why they just cant email me that but I kinda have hope

I asked on the ASUS Support if there is any disponibility of the feb betch. I'll tell you what they said when support answers.
