A near flawless monitor, however LG's marketing is kinda shady. They advertise support for HDR and while this is true, the industry standard of HDR-10 utilises a standard maximum brightness of 1,000 nits. This monitor is only rated for a maximum of 350 nits. When testing a game like Ratchet and Clank on the PS4 pro, some scenes like cityscapes look amazing, however if you look at the sun directly it won't feel "bright enough". Also in some very dark scenes if there is a lot of artificial light it can look very saturated. If you're not happy with the HDR it's best to turn it off. Other than that this is a fantastic monitor for the price. 27...view more A near flawless monitor, however LG's marketing is kinda shady.

This monitor is awesome, does everything I expected. All Pros at this point. G-Sync and 144hz gives me a smooth gaming experience and makes BF5 look awesome.

Love this monitor, came from a VG248QE, I had tried other TN panels and was bothered by the ghosting that they had. This monitor is very fast and the motion is smooth, G-SYNC works well out of the box (No G-SYNC module but has been tested by NVIDIA and is compatible).

The colors are great out of box and better after calibration, tested some games that have very high speed movement to see if I could notice ghosting and couldn't see any even if I looked super hard.

Read several reviews online of various types of monitors and different specs. I do a reasonable amount of amateur photography but I also game. So I need fast and colour accurate.

This really hit the sweet spot of:
Panel- LG really make excellent panels, colour accurate, fast response, I would say great viewing angle.
Price
G-sync compatible, so you get a slightly cheaper but almost as good G-sync without the added cost. And means you can buy whatever graphics card you like in the future.
Ergonomics(height adjustable super useful for me)

I've had the monitor a few weeks now and it's lived up to everything I read online about it.

No real negatives I can think of.

Certainly not the best or biggest monitor money can buy, not 4k etc. But a great monitor, well worth the money.

Its not the cheapest but it is a great screen. Have had no problems with it and games look awesome on it. Highly recommended. Thanks PB tech for great product.

Pros:
- Fantastic colours
- Decent response time (especially good for fast-paced gaming)

Cons:
- IPS glow may be noticeable on some panels
- Competitors have better stands

This is generally a great all-round monitor. It excels at gaming. I came from the Acer Predator XB271HUA (TN model) and have to say this definitely has superior colours and gradient handling compared to that monitor. It's close to the same response time performance, maybe a tad slower (evidence by slight motion blur compared to the TN). Most people wouldn't notice it at all.

The main downside for me is that it is not immune to "IPS glow". I can notice it in my panel, particularly in the lower-left corner in very dark scenes. It seems it pretty common for this panel. Some people have it worse and others better. So it's luck of the draw. However, it doesn't bother me/I don't notice it 99% of the time it doesn't lose a star from me.

Excellent monitor. For years I have put up with 1920 x 1080 and frustrated with the small screen area when working. I looked into 4k monitors, but they have so much screen, and unless they are huge, the characters were slightly annoyingly small. I know you can increase the resolution, but then they are not crystal clear. I found this 2k monitor is just perfect for size, colors, speed and pretty much everything. For business use it is the ideal size, and simply, there is nothing wrong with it. Excellent monitor. For years I have put up with 1920 x 1080 and frustrated with the small screen area when working.

Good: response time, colour, gsync, build quality, quick setup, adjustable stand,
Bad: black levels, some pictures look overly exposed where the image loses detail. Switching to SDR looks better in these circumstances. Good: response time, colour, gsync, build quality, quick setup, adjustable stand,

I have bought this monitor for a month now. It's a really good monitor for gaming and productivity at the same time. Very low response time (The main selling point of this monitor). This monitor is fast!. I sacrificed my 3440 X 1440 100 Hz IPS display for this. I still think I made a great decision. Yes the price is abit expensive but you do get what you paid for. This is 100% your go to 1440p IPS gaming display for a while to come.

The only CON is the feet sticks out really close towards you and your keyboard and mouse. I found it super annoying to a stage where I had to purchase a VESA monitor mount for this purpose.

TIP: You will need to find the colour adjustments online because the default is slightly off.

LG really out did themselves with this monitor.

Best monitor I've ever bought, returned a faulty asus rog strix and ordered this one and it's a work of art graphically and visually. Best monitor I've ever bought, returned a faulty asus rog strix and ordered this one and it's a work of art graphically and visually.
