OOB colors not great, after nice, great display
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have many 4k monitors and tvs I have used. interestingly enough, my HISENSE from 2018 has the best HDR colors (not brightness) out of most of them under $800-1000 per example (OLED one 65" $1000+ kills it but... let's be fair). My SEIKI 39" 30fps is amazing, and just wins over all other devices for reading text, programming, effects controls for 1fx, 3ds, etc. Now comes the 32" LG I got OPEN BOX from best buy. I was lucky, it was like new, and nobody stole it out of my hallway before I got home. Heh. The colors are vibrant but skin tones look yellow, orange, and blues need some pumping up. I tried to calibrate this with an hdmi connection, then display port as a test (2.0x and 1.4 respectively) and it was basically the same for what I was doing. 4:4:4 uncompressed from a geforce 1060, I think my 2080 ti might send a better signal (circuitry shouldn't matter in uncompressed rgb (8 or 10 bit) full dynamic range or YCbCr 4:4:4 (8 or 10 bit) limited output in this. Go to your nvidia control panel in windows/apple and set that to USE NVIDIA color settings if you like to test. I suppose AMD is the same, but I don't have a 4gb+ gpu from amd atm to test. You will notice a bit of a pasty white on the display and strange dark but flat blacks (va panel, no glossy going on).. and you can play with brightness and contrast. What you most likely should not do is play with sharpness on a pure digital signal in the lg control panel, it just really wrecks what you are seeing, even 32" at 100% zoom 2840x2160, so remember that unless it fits your eye for text with some higher contrast, you should do that in windows/os x instead of the monitor if you can. I noticed a very strange thing, the contrast and brightness no matter the response speed setting in the lg monitor would flicker the end credits of white text on a black background on both my seiki 30hz and the lg 60z at any none-fast-faster response setting, but my hisense not only showed skin tones better and overall a more film like look, but no flickering of the text scrolling up. There's an antialaising reason in the blu-ray x265 compression of the text for this, but it should be noted some va ips oled etc techs handle this differently, don't be freaked out. If you blow up 1080p (BLU RAY STANDARD) to 4k it doesn't flicker as much in this instance I had. There's almost no heat coming from this,which is great, and it balances very nicely on an old wooden crate my friend gave me years ago before he passed away, sturdy fruit crate, $300+ monitor, seems legit. And as for the speakers, they're small speakers inside of a 32" flat panel, it is what it is. Get a sound bar or a receiver/amplifier and monitors if you want studio sound with it. I would certainly watch films, tv, gaming on the xbox, pc, and effects controls and even small, thin anti aliased lines in 3ds/c4d/blender with this.

Mediocre monitor at best
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The monitor isnt the best, but you get whay you paid for. It has awful viewing angles to the poijt where if you dont look dead straight, colors become bery contrasty and HDR isnt actually HDR(It’s not VESA certified, which is the industry standard in certifying HDR on screens). When enabling HDR through windows, it just makes the colors washed out. I only got this monitor because i saw it on sale for $141 so in pretty content for the price i paid for. Id recommend finding a monitor thats VESA certified as youll aftuslly get true HDR

Fantastic picture quality!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have only been using it for a week, but so far, so good! This monitor has excellent 4K display. If you stream 4k movies on it, the picture quality is amazing. Watching a 4k Top Gun preview was awesome. I do a fair amount of photo editing (real estate), and the hi def quality and size really helps. The controls are via a tiny toggle switch on the bottom, which can take some getting used to, but it is pretty easy to use. The monitor stand tilts, but it is not adjustable up and down, so keep that in mind if you have a tight space. This monitor barely fits into the monitor space in my large desk, but I measured it first to make sure it would fit. It takes up the whole space, but since it sits about 4 or 5 inches higher than the desk, I have easy access to my audio controls for the speaker system and powered sub I have connected to my PC. Again, so far, I love it!

32” LG 32UN500
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is good for office work, cad drawings, work from home computer monitor. It’s worth the money. I use this monitor side by side together with 32” Samsung UJ59, 32”. Believe me, this dude is better screen resolution and also cheaper. Can’t go wrong with on sale price less than $300. As you can see down below, right side is LG and left side is Samsung.

AWFUL VIEWING ANGLES
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this monitor based on the mass amount of reviews and expert ratings I read through. I got this monitor because of price point but should have gone with an IPS panel instead for about $150 more. Most of the reviews, and yes I know this is a VA panel, stated the viewing angles were decent, not sure what socks they were smoking but they certainly weren't fresh. While the picture is very good, the text crisp, nice colors and a decent brightness, the viewing angles are the very worst I have ever seen in a 32 monitor. Move slightly and colors start to look washed out and also complete different. See the photos of the lovely fillet steak I have included as a comparison. I have included front, side on and up above. While the resolution is crisp, at any other angle that is not head on the colors become washed out and the whole image dull. This may not be an issue for some people but as someone who moves about a bit while working, has multiple monitors and wants a uniform color from all angles, please please go with an IPS panel. If the viewing angles were not so bad and the fact that the HDMI ports are constantly cutting in and out on all 5 of the laptops I have tested it on, this would be a decent monitor.

LG delivers a quality display
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this monitor with a LG 4k Blu-ray Player for watching movies. I got rid of my cable bill and this supplements that nicely. It displays crisp colors and images with no fuzzy or blurry delays or spots. I have not played YouTube videos or video games on it, but it does handle moving images very well. 32 inches is the right size for one person to watch or a whole family. Any larger or smaller and it may not be a satisfactory viewing experience. The speakers are good but I would recommend using headphones, such as Sennheiser HD560S (my personal favorite), to have an isolated listening experience as well. Despite the lower price, this monitor from LG delivers a quality display worth much more.

Great entry level monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality, especially for the price point. Temper your expectations though. I wouldn’t recommend this for shooters. It’s 60Hz. I play mostly RPGs and this monitor is great for that purpose. The colors really pop and I love the color accuracy. It’s not mini LED or IPS so don’t expect deep black levels. Photo attached is a side by side comparison with Razer Blade 4K OLED

Great monitor and size
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor. The size allows for dual monitor viewing with only one monitor, which saves space on my desk. I used it to connect to my iMac and it has great resolution quality.

Q: Questionis this monitor vesa mount compatible?
Asked by richard.
- A:Answer Yes. They made it real easy to remove the stand as well. Be sure the mount can handle the size. Some, like Varidesk, have a 27" upper limit if you're doing duals.

Q: QuestionIs this a full LED monitor?
Asked by LED.
- A:Answer 4K Led. Not OLED. Beautiful and bright. Too bright until I learned how to use the joystick at the bottom of the monitor to do some adjustments on brightness and contrast. Great for photo editing with the 4K detail. I use mainly with my Mac Mini desktop. Comes with an HDMI cable also.

Q: QuestionI was unpacking this monitor. It seems like there's a screen protector attached on the screen. I was trying to remove it but unable to do so. Could you confirm with me if there's a screen protector comes with the monitor?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I have purchased four of these monitors for use in my office. Just confirmed with my staff who unboxed and set them up that none of them had anything resembling a screen protector across the screen itself. The frames were wrapped in a thin film that peeled right off, but there was nothing over the screen itself.
