Have any of you used an Asus monitor, 24" or 27"? How good would you say it is?

I have two; a 24" and a 27". I can't compare either to other (modern/current) monitors because they're what I've had for quite a few years. Are they "good"? They're good enough for me.

I am a semi-retired pro so I print a lot through my pro lab. I do my own retouching and color correction and the lab prints always match my screen images. I have two 24" ASUS monitors. They calibrate easily (Datacolor). You can spend, more but I am happy with my ASUS monitors.

I have two of them, both 32" and curved screens. I find with the larger screens, curved is better than flat; it takes a day to get used to them. They are excellent. I don't know how they are for true colours. I don't use my computers for editing photographs.

I have an Asus ProArt 27" monitor that covers 100% of the sRGB colour space. The only people who need more than that are those who do things like product photography and who also need maximum colour accuracy (not everybody does). sRGB is the standard chosen for the internet and it is sufficient for most printing processes.

My last monitor, which I had for quite a long time, was an Asus. It kept its colour accuracy well over time. I believe that all ProArt monitors come calibrated.

I am following this. Do you have the number of the one you bought? There in a $285.
PA278QV 27” WQHD (2560 x 1440).

And a $489. AdjustableASUS ProArt Display 27” 4K HDR Professional Monitor (PA279CRV) - IPS, UHD (3840 x 2160)

Thanks.

The PA278QV is the one I have. The price difference is due to the jump from 2K to 4K. Only get the 4K version if you're absolutely sure you'll need the extra resolution. Editing 4K video would be one reason. Without a compelling reason I'd stick with the 2K version.

I have 2, both ASUS ProArt, a 24" PA246 1080P and a 32" PA329C 4K. Excellent color gamut on both. Highly recommend the brand...

Every company makes a range of Monitors geared for different uses and price points.
In general all displays have gotten better in recent years.
If you shoot JPEGs you need one that covers the sRGB gamut (nearly everything but the least expensive displays will do that. For Graphics and Photography IPS panels are preferred, and for resolution something more than 1080P is generally preferred. Other things you pay for are evenness across the whole display and the ability to accept hardware calibration. If you shoot RAW and print on a wide gamut Printer or work with a professional lab, a better display will be helpful. So it is very much a personal choice, and as I said , most manufacturers make a wide range of quality at different price points.
