Our Verdict

ASUS ROG Strix XG27UQR

ASUS ROG Swift PG27UQR

The ASUS ROG Swift PG27UQR is a higher-end monitor than the ASUS ROG Strix XG27UQR, so it has a few extra features. The main difference is that the PG27UQR has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, which the XG27UQR doesn't have, so it can take full advantage of current-gen gaming consoles and modern graphics cards. The PG27UQR also has a more modern look with thinner bezels and a more ergonomic stand. Lastly, the PG27UQR has a slightly higher refresh rate and much better motion handling across its entire refresh rate range.
