As a (primarily) web UI designer, I already had a 27" 4k ViewSonic 2785 and calibrate that with a DataColor Spyder5. This LG is much cheaper, has less controls, and a much simpler stand...but after calibration had almost as wide a calibrated color gamut as my much more expensive 2785. The primary benefit is that it's VERY sharp for use in programs like Illustrator, Adobe XD, InDesign, Cinema4d, etc... and if you need more adjustment, it has a vesa mount so you can buy even a basic Amazon arm to mount it. Plus it comes with cables and it's a quick assembly. One odd thing: it's described as Silver but I would call it Black. If this lasts, it's a fantastic value.

Great monitor, clear picture, easy to set up and haven't had any issues with it.
I mostly do photo editing and it's been great so far.

Really great picture

Really great picture for the price, colors are great out of the box without having to mess around with the settings. When working in the desktop, 4k is a huge improvement over the old 1080p monitor I was using. It's decent for games too, as long as you're ok with only 60hz. No ghosting or anything that I can notice, and the response time seems fine to me. Only negative is that the stand is kinda cheap and wobbly and there's no height adjustment.

I got this monitor hooked up to my Xbox One via a HDMI splitter so I can play without tying up the TV. I've been using it for over a month now so I've used it several times thus far. The picture quality is nice, clear and bright once tweaked to your liking. The HDR has nice defined blacks that gives a beautiful contrast and it handles a 4K 60hz HDR10 input well. At this price point, it's a pretty good monitor.

This is a good quality 4k monitor and literally has the same tech specs as other LG 27 inch monitors! I was very stuck choosing between this monitor and the LG 34 inch Ultra-wide monitor (34wl500) but I chose this one because of the 4k resolution and the discounted sale price. I highly recommend this specific model monitor than the other 27 inch LG models!! The only Con I have is I wish this model would have a usb C port for mac but I guess that is on higher end models...

This monitor is a good 4K monitor at the lower end of the 4K monitor space. The picture is bright and sharp, plenty of contrast for daily work-at-home activity. The only downsides is the lack of some older inputs types (VGA, DVI) - but that's a minor omission. I would recommend this monitor as a general purpose viewer.

Just set it up today for my Mac Mini M1 and loving it so far! The 4K HDR is awesome and after doing a bunch of research before buying, I think $350 is a fair price point. The quality of the monitor and stand are really nice too.

This monitor looks great! And the price is so low... I didn't want to spend much on a monitor for doing work from home, so I got this one for about $300. It looks way nicer than I thought it would. I am very pleased.

Picked up a pair of these for the home setup and couldn't be happier. As a techie I spend my days looking at and marking up a lot of drawings, scanned PDF's and spreadsheets. Had a pair of 24" HD's and the fuzziness was really getting to me. A pair of these babies and you can skip wearing glasses. The provided stand is not height adjustable, but have standard VESA mounting so they can go on a bracket. Really nice to have two HDMI inputs - can swap to another computer without changing cables. Good picture adjustments and power saving options.
Invest the money saved on not commuting and really upgrade the home office - you may never go back.

This is a great monitor. It has all the newer features at a superb price. The picture and resolution is fantastic. This monitor has taken my gaming to an entirely new level.
The only thing I don't like about it is aesthetic, I don't like the arcing base.

I was disappointed by the obvious backlight hotspots that are even more apparent at night . The max brightness doesn’t reach advertised levels even when viewing hdr content. Otherwise if viewing in a darker room this serves its purpose but nothing stands out when comparing similarly priced monitors. I’d recommend this only if you want a decent monitor for media consumption. I don’t recommend this to anyone who is needing to edit photo or video, as color accuracy is compromised. Gamers already should know to go for something with maybe a 2k resolution in exchange for refresh rate and response time

Sharp images and good color for the prices. Replaced an older monitor. Wanted a monitor that was good for photo editing. Pleased with this one. The LG Customer Service rep was very helpful when I encountered an issue on install.

Easy to assemble, get started with a hdmi connection and navigate through the on screen display. Great resolution and color balance, although some color adjustments were needed. The stand is not as bad as others have said and the bottom surface prevents it from sliding around.

Very nice picture but it sometimes is difficult to reconnect. Tends to act like it doesn't know your computer even though you've had it hooked up for weeks. Otherwise, picture is good.
