LG does not disappoint!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to say that this monitor has shown me how out of date my previousonitor really was. I own the Predator X34 and I love it! A huge screen relastate with great color, sharp image, and G-Sync! But then I purchased this monitor as a second and for my Blade 15 Advance and holy cow! The colors are vibrant! The screen is extremely sharp! And it is compatible with G-Sync! It also has 1m response time. My Blade struggles to use 4k, but once connected to my eGPU and my RTX 3070 EVGA XC3, it works great! I get pretty good FSP, not the greatest, but good enough. Though as a second screen to my tower it is amazing. It really shows me how washed out my X34 really is as it doesn't support HDR and brightens is only 350 max. This screen has a max HDR of 600 and Brightness of 400. Not to mention it is much faster than my X34 at 144hz, Without going into anymore detail. This is a great monitor and I think it is definitely worth the price for what you get. I would recommend.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just got my 3080 and able to experience this monitor in its true worth. I am in love with this monitor. I was gaming on a Asus 1080p before this and it took me some time to get used to this screen is much brighter with the ips glow, but now that I am used to it is amazing. It doesn't disappoint

Great deal
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, I think this is the best 4k 144 (with firmware update, 160) fps monitor you can buy on the market today. When it is in stock, that is. But there’s good reasons it’s always out of stock, and it is because this product is superior to any other for the price.

Nice monitor
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice monitor. Worth the price especially if you can get it in sale. But you need a 4080/4090 graphics card to run it.

Absolutely Best mother ever ever had!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is honestly one the best monitors out on the market, if you can get your hands on one. 4K gaming is absolutely beautiful and comes with cool rgb effects in the back. Only down side no HDMI 2.1 and can feel the heat.

AMAZING MONITOR!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is amazing! I love the 4k resolution and the 144hz for gaming with this monitor. Easily can do most games without having to worry as much with a 3070. Monitor looks nice, does the job, and no complaints yet. Very happy with this purchase!

Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It displays 4k at up to 160 fps. Incredible. It doesn't have the newest HDMI (2.1) so the HDMI port will only show up to 60 fps, so if you want thew higher framerates for your console you may want a different monitor. Perfect for pc though.

Great Panel, Horrible Firmware
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The panel itself is absolutely stunning, and the 4K experience is life changing. I came from 1080p, so the difference in quality was immediately apparent. Don't, however, expect to run 4K 144hz in most games; even an RTX 3090 doesn't have the power to hit 144fps consistently, DLSS included, which is why the G-Sync compatibility is such a huge benefit. Don't expect deep blacks like those associated with VA panels, as there is some backlight bleed, but, for me, it was enough as I played in a relatively bright room. Only 3 stars because there's this "feature" called Displayport Deep Sleep wherein the monitor stops receiving a signal if your PC goes to sleep/you lock your computer/etc, and there is no fix for it, either in the settings or the firmware, even as LG is aware of the problem (you must either unplug the monitor or the displayport cable). At first it was a minor annoyance, but after 2 weeks of daily use, it's such a major pain that I am returning this monitor and either getting a dual 1440p 144hz setup or waiting for the HDMI 2.1 version of this panel. It's such a shame that a fantastic panel like this is ruined by a "power saving feature." Anyone who spends $800 on a monitor expects it to work all the time; I can't call this "feature" anything other than an oversight by the engineering dept., here's hoping the HDMI 2.1 version releasing in April 2021 doesn't have this horrible inclusion.

Top Tier Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor. I use it for playing Call of Duty, Elden Ring, along with using it as a second monitor for working. The RGB on the back is a nice feature also.

Xbox Series X users perspective
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been on the hunt for the absolute best gaming monitor and let me start by saying I love this monitor, best looking display I’ve ever owned! Deep black, bright and accurate colors. I have nothing bad to say about it. Only that it doesn’t have an hdmi 2.1 port. Honestly not that big of a deal since xbox games either run 1440p at 120hz or 4k 60hz so i love having the option to switch to either choice, depending on the game im playing. Hdr makes a huge difference in games as well. Just an overall beast of a monitor. Well worth it, if you want the best console gaming experience in my opinion!(Btw been running perfect for months now/ no issues)

Impressive color and fidelity over my 1440p screen
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great, albeit, hard to find monitor I was recommended by someone crazy for monitors. I got really lucky in a local store when I wasn't even trying to look for it. Pros: - Really amazing color. I can definitely tell a difference vs my ROG 1440p monitor . - 144hz 4K monitor (Sorta) I've heard you need to have a RTX 3000 series card to actually be able to set this to 144hz because of the port or something. I'm actually not really sure and haven't found too much on it. I currently have mine running at 120hz using DP 1.4. Good luck finding one. - G-Sync compatible Neutral: - HDR is okay. I haven't used it too much. It's only 600 though so you aren't buying this for HDR content anyway. Cons: - Need an RTX card to really take advantage of this monitor to it's fullest extent

Great Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent color. Playing games at 4K with this is awesome no screen tearing. Vibrant colors with the HDR 600 most people say you can’t see the difference from 400 to 600 but you can tell on this monitor. Glad I bought this model.

Centerpiece for the Ultimate Gaming Desk
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is absolutely amazing! The picture is insanely crisp, it has enough inputs for three devices, and the HDR is comparable to my LG OLED TV. I bought this monitor to use with my PS5 and Xbox Series X on my desk, and it has been excellent as a console monitor. I was finally able to grab an RTX 3080 graphics card as well, so now I can take-advantage of the full 144Hz refresh rate of this monitor. In the nearly three months that I've had it, I've had no problems with anything at all, but I have been enjoying the heck out of it. If you plan on gaming on a desk, you simply cannot beat this monitor for right now.

Best monitor overall currently
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.4k, 160hz (with a firmware update), nano ips, no ghosting, dsc. No other 4k monitor can match this currently. Only downside is no hdmi 2.1, but 1) it's hard for consoles to push this many fps at 4k, and 2) it's limited to 120hz.
