Wouldn't Recommend

It got racing stripes after barely 3 years. The problem lies in you can't open the back of the monitor seemingly without a special tool so I guess I just have to deal with this or waste money on a repair shop for barely a mid tier monitor.

Beautiful picture, smooth frames

I've had this for almost a year now. The colors are vibrant, the refresh rate is silky smooth and it just looks great. Really solid monitor at a good price point.

Good mid range monitor

I am satisfied with the display quality. I use it for gaming and video editing, plus all the office work I need to do. Fits a medium size desk well.

Great Universal Monitor

Great monitor, bought it to pair with the LG OLED monitor in a month or so! I use it for gaming and work for whenever I am home.

Great Monitor

This is a great monitor for both gaming and office needs! I use it for both purposes and plan to match it the UW-Wide LG OLED gaming monitor. Doesn't draw too much power, so performance is not impacted heavily.

very good monitor especially with such discount

everything is nice, but only if response time setting is used normal or fast nothing else, otherwise it ghosts A LOT. and the stand could better and monitor could rotate in more ways.

Ov very good, with some minor discrepancies

I have been using this monitor for a long time now (as of 2/18/24, it has 5137 total hours ON) and is a fantastic monitor, colors are great out of the box, almost no blur and is compatible with lower resolutions like 480i out of an OG Xbox. However the HDR is rather weak, and the HDR is more of a hindrance than a benefit when it's on, as it just doesn't have the brightness to do said HDR, it just crushes and blows out all the colors. Same thing can be said for the pixel density, I'm not looking for retina levels of PPI, but I was expecting a fairly crisp image, as my old dell 1080p ultrasharp had a higher ppi than this monitor. Another thing is how short the power chord is, as its barely long enough to go up my monitor arm from my UPS, with no extension available in box or to purchase. the stand is meh, it looks to be fully intended to just be put on an arm anyways so I just ignored it when unboxing TL:DR, Awesome monitor, over 5000 hours in use; HDR is bad, really bad; really short power cord, not even 6ft, and no available extensions; okay pixel density, should be higher as it constantly looks dull, even with different sharpness values.

I've purchased three of them!

I already have two of these and I needed another one for my band room. These monitors have great color and performance.

Great monitor, user needs time to adjust

I bought this for the holidays last year and have been having a lot of fun on it! The video quality is great and I am very happy with the high frame rates I am able to get. My only problem with it is the stand not being as adjustable as I'd like, and the joystick for power / option control has taken some getting used to.

Nice but...

I bought this one month ago. Resolution is decent but lately the screen has been glitching like this every few minutes.

Not a good monitor

Lots of issues with this monitor. Its a basic monitor with poor ergonomics and mediocre picture quality. 1. The image quality is lacking, appearance changes significantly with viewing angle, there is a dark halo around the edge of the screen from an uneven backlight, it can't display dark details. It does get pretty bright. 2. Its ugly and not appropriate for a professional environment. 3. Ergonomics are terrible: there is no height adjustment and its only height is too low for me for a standard 30" high desk - you would have to be about 5ft-6" or less to use this monitor, the stand projects in *front* of the monitor by about 3 inches and is a crazy 19 inches wide so it takes up half the desk and I have nowhere to put a beverage as the monitor plus keyboard takes up the entire depth of my desk. 4. Lack of ports: no USB ports, no video out, no USB-C, just HDMI and DisplayPort In which is the bare minimum.

Great colors and resolution!

Bought this a couple weeks ago, have been blown away by how it looks compared to the old 1080p monitor I had been using. Button control took some getting used to but is very intuitive

Too good to be true. Failed budget monitor.

After just a year of use the monitor started having glitches and distorted images and dealing with support has been a complete nightmare. Not only that but the monitor used to heat up a lot when connected to my console for no reason and I was told this was a normal occurrence despite me explaining that it was getting way hotter than usual. I didn't overclock it, didn't select Max settings, nothing. The monitor would just heat up when connected to my console but would maintain a normal temperature when connected to my PC. If you're planning to buy this either make sure you have the best warranty or get ready to watch your investment go down the drain in a short time.

Worth the money

I bought this monitor about a month ago. I had a few troubles setting the g sync up trying to get the right display port( mini dp to dp). After making a call and learning what all the settings are and how to get the best graphics it does great holds a steady 130 fps for fortnite.

ghosting and blur and glare

ghosting and blur is terrible on this one. it haves a medium strong of glare , it feels like a little amount of oil was put on top of the monitor. other than these problems the colors looks nice and no tearing because gsync works nice.

Great Resolution and HDR Monitor

I bought this month last December and absolutely enjoyed it until recently black and white pixelated lines started appearing on the screen when the monitor was hot and running at high frames. I contacted LG support and have sent it to them, but have yet to receive it back, so we shall see. Up until the lines appeared it was absolutely perfect though.

Nice in bright scenes

This monitor is very nice in bright scenes where the contrast is not a big deal. Fast response time and gsync works great. My only complaint bout this monitor is the ips glow in dark scenes, it is very noticeable in the bottom left corner. Tried two different ones and it was the same on both of them and seems to be a common issue with them. Color look great.

This Monitor is a Beast

Upon arrival I was very impressed with the quality of packing materials for the monitor. Everything was neatly packed in quality foam and was even more slim then I had expected. Great color range and the refresh rate makes it perfect for any FPS gaming I want to do.
