LG - UltraGear 27" IPS LED FHD FreeSync Monitor (DisplayPort, HDMI) - Black

OUT of the box this monitor is a monster, great picture, refresh rate, and size. its great for movies, gaming and much more. I bought 2 of these monitors and they both came in with Horrible Ips Glow. It looks like a bunch of flashlights all over both of them. They will be both going back and the hunt for new gaming monitors continues. I am not knocking any stars because of it. I love this monitor i really do. I love LG i am a fan boy of them. I own TV's and my cell phone is a LG v60 so yeah its not there fault. Ips glow is something that comes with buying IPS panels. I just wish these came in perfect so i could keep them. LG if you read this what can we do so i can get perfect monitors with no IPS glow or Blacklight bleed can you test them and hand pick them so i can Keep the LG theme in my house. Ill do anything to have a no problem monitor that last me for the next 6 years. I would recommend this monitor and i have already. Its stunning! If your looking for a 1080p 144hrz 27'' This is it look no further. I will say this though "May the Odds Ever Be In Your Favor" I am building a whole new setup and wanted to do it with LG but i might have to look some where else. i am wicked sad by this.

Great looks and very smooth display with the display port 1.4 cable and just letting everyone know they included the cable! That’s $30 right there! I’m super happy with my purchase. My last monitor was a dumpster LCD HP 24” I fixed and lasted 4 year And wanted a better gaming Display since I upgraded everything else on my PC

I have nothing bad I can say I’m very happy with my purchase

I ordered to use primarily as work monitors and I could not be more pleased. Perfect size and picture quality. I am sure they are great for gaming as well.

Really like this monitor but I’ve only had it for a couple months and It already developed a dead pixel in the center of the screen. Cant notice it most things unless It’s a light background super annoying then.

The monitor comes with a display port cable about 4 feet long. This is a gaming monitor in almost every sense, so expect text to be not so easy to read on websites in anything other than its native 1920 - 1080 resolution, and some distortion if you use other sizes. I took no stars off for this because you know what you are paying for here. The difference is not too bad, but is worse than my previous 24 inch monitor because 1080 resolution is better for 24 inch size, due to it having more pixels per inch (I think 90 for 24 inch and 81 for 27 inch) That is not a game breaker though because I knew this coming in but wanted to get a slightly bigger monitor and eventually a three monitor setup. The other slight negative is the stand. The stand is very sturdy and sleek. It's rather beautiful really, but the lowest height of the riser pole for this monitor still keeps it right about 18 inches, with about 3 to 4 inches off the top of the desk. I knew this too, and will get a Vesa triple stand, but it's something to point out for those without the headroom on your desktop if you have a hutch. I have only used this to play a couple of games that are not graphic intensive and the difference in its 144 hz refresh was like night and day compared to my 60-75 hz monitor. Minecraft is smooth like watching a movie. I was amazed by this and no sacrifice on quality. Overall, this is a great monitor if you only want one monitor and do a lot of gaming, but if you are going for a 3 monitor setup, you might want to stick with 24 inch at 1080, or move up to 32 inch with higher resolutions. 27 inch monitors are kind of in the middle of resolution for their size. Running monitor with i5 4690k, 16 gigs Ram, Rtx 2060 MSI Gamer X in Windows 7 64-bit. Also would like to add I made no tweeks to the out of the box settings for this monitor.

the design is flawless, the colors are vibrant and stand out on the xbox one X, its amazing. the menu navigation isn't rough like some monitors and with this one its easy. the response time feels perfect, no ghosting no lag. being able to change your response time is another key feature of this monitor. you can take it off or set it to faster. it comes with multiple presets for video preferences. i recommend this monitor 100% if you take gaming serious, i also love the monitor stand design, it looks futuristic and alien like, a great monitor for a great price

I'm a gamer and let me say first that I went from a 32" 4k hdr 60hz monitor to this one. I was worried going back to 1080p was going to be hard, especially at 27" considering the dpi. All I can say is that this monitor is great and I am going to be using it full time and boxing the 4k up for now. Going from 60hz to 144hz is amazing and I think, way more advantageous than the increase in resolution. Now 1080p at 27" doesn't look super sharp with text but it's not bad at all and there is no screen door effect or visible pixels. Trust me I'm super picky about this stuff and I and pleased with this monitor. It's also super bright and it being ips, has great colors. I barely have any backlight bleed and zero dead pixels. I truly believe LG is the company to be beat in gaming monitors especially since they make their own panels. It's my second LG and I won't hesitate to buy from them in the future. The HDR isnt true hdr but it does add a great deal of depth and detail to most games. Mind you some games have poorly implemented HDR and look terrible, but the good ones look great. Don't hesitate to buy this if you want a good gaming monitor. I would Also say that this IPS display at 144hz is a way better display than the 240hz tn panels is every way and I've owned both types.
