Worked great for the first summer of use. Couldn't get it to display anything during the second and subsequent summers. Some postings indicate that will happen with some video drive signals. Still investigating the fix for that. While it worked it was a great value.

I bought one a few year ago and I was happy to use. Due to COVID-19, my kid needed to use it. So I am thinking to buy another LG UltraWide (maybe 29"). So convenient for engineering work, research work.

From the perspective of a photo and video editor as well as graphic designer, this monitor has strikingly accurate color and clarity. I absolutely love it. I have had a pair of them for 3 years and they operate as well today as they did on day one. Not a serious gaming monitor if anyone is looking. Picture quality is phenomenal but it does have screen tearing in more demanding titles.

I've had this monitor for over a year at least and I love it. Great image, still works and my games look fantastic in ultrawide.

I needed a new monitor for work and I am glad I decided on 25" wide screen. Excellent picture , great features, and I like the format better than my previous monitors

I received this monitor as a christmas gift and I absolutely love it! It works perfect for my purposes, which is working with large excel sheets. I love the feature of screen split because it make my work so much easier. The colors on the monitor are amazing, it is so very clear and vibrant. I do not have any down side to report on this monitor, in fact I highly recommend.

monitor begins to die out after a year, cant handle playing a game without the monitor crashing and begin flickering only a blue screen when trying to change from a game to the desktop. and then the desktop always shows a flickering light when just showing the desktop screen.

I bought this monitor to permit side-by-side windows on the same screen, and it works great. It came right up on Windows 10 - I ddin't even load the drivers or split-screen software. I don't use it for gaming.

I bought this monitor several months ago, and it still amazes me. The graphics are excellent. I love the fact that it has a gaming mode. I love the space I now have. I use it in unison with another LG monitor, and the space I have is amazing! Excellent product.

I bought this monitor for the real estate. I wanted a larger monitor for doing post production video work that did not require the same space as a TV monitor and this fits the bill perfectly. After mounting it on a VESA arm it's my favorite setup to date. The price is right too!

As an audio engineer and video editor, this ultra-wide monitor has greatly increased my productivity. It allows me to run my desktop at a higher resolution and see much more at one time than I ever could before. I also appreciate how crisp and accurate the colors are. Great product!

Put briefly; the monitor works as advertised, however there will be problems when using applications that cannot recognize 21:9 display ratio or resolutions of 2560x1080. Software that cannot recognize said configuration will definitely not work.

Great Monitor for the price. I purchased this monitor to make a pair and it is very useful.

I've had this monitor for about 4 months now and it is working perfectly. I would highly recommend this monitor to people that want plenty of screen real estate for multitasking, or people who want a big screen for gaming. It has different modes for dimming the screen to make looking at the screen for long periods of time easier on your eyes along with a great gaming mode. Overall, this product is great for the price and it is definitely worth the money.

I bought this monitor two months ago to replace my old unit. The monitor works great whether I'm gaming or browsing the web. The ultrawide aspect ratio means you have a lot of horizontal space for multitasking as well. This is a great product at a reasonable price, so definitely consider buying it.

Very sharp and bright colors. More games support ultrawide than I had thought. But still supports everything in 1080p, 720p, etc. Two HDMI ports that are easy to switch between. It also switches HDMI audio source to your sound system via Audio out jack on the display.

Getting software updates for this TV was a breeze. The navigation through the menu is significantly easier than other TV's I have had. After over 3 years with this TV, I will definitely be sticking with LG for my entertainment setup.

I bought this monitor about a month ago for my wife. She teleworks at home and needed a wider monitor so she can have several windows open and view them at the same time. This is the perfect solution!

Received today. Thought it was a little much at first, but quickly got used to it. This is border line between tv and monitor which is perfect, I intend to use for a long time.

I bought this about 8 months ago and its an amazing monitor. Very bright vibrant colors, easy to keep clean (I dust it off and give it a wipe with screen cleaner once a week. I even plan to get another for a dual monitor setup or even 2 more for a 3 monitor. Its also great for gaming. The software for dividing the screen into sections is great for all sorts of different uses from engineering (using CAD and similar software) IT programmers would find many uses for its features. and the everyday person can get very comfortable with being able to divide the screen int o 4 sections through the LG software.

I'm a CPA so I use it for data rather than gaming. I've used it for a month and am completely satisfied with the quality. The 4 way split software that comes with it does not work when multiple monitors are used, however it is not very important to me. It does work fine if only this monitor is used. The model with the curved screen would have been better for my use.

I really love this LED Monitor from LG. It has a large screen, very crisp and brilliant colors and picture. Excellent for use with any computer and also great for games with a lot of graphics. I also like the fact that it has both a VGA connection as well as an HDMI connection. I went with the advice of the sales person and purchased the HDMI cable and used that instead of the VGA cable, since my computer has both. I would highly recommend using an HDMI cable with this great monitor for the best picture quality possible. I would recommend this monitor to anyone that is looking for a monitor with great picture, features and price. Great job. LG
