Love the screen.. only one small issue
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a screen! It is crisp! I managed to snag this while it was on sale. I would give this 5 stars all day but it says to make sure to use the cables provided with the screen. Only problem is they are very short so if you have the PC set up a few feet away from the screen there is no way you can use the cables provided. Kind of surprised LG would not send a longer cable. With that said i had to buy a longer cable to keep my setup the way i like it.

Excellent gaming monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent 4k monitor for upcoming games like cyberpunk 2077. It looks amazing and with a 144hz refresh the games look smooth so not only is this a great monitor for fps but it’s also great for story driven games .

Probably the best 4k monitor at this price.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally broke down and got this because I felt like my old 1080p monitor, as nice as it is, wasn't taking advantage of my 2070 Super. Playing games in higher than 60fps is nice too.

Color/Calibration + Others
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought two of these monitors. Setup is super simple. RGB is disabled when first turned on. Going to list some general observations: 1. Both displays do not match in calibration on any game display mode (whites do not match). Made sure to check all settings. Even went as far as checking for software/firmware updates (no available at the time of this review). Pretty disappointed. 2. You cannot control the RGB light modes via software if two monitors are connected. Yes, you can change basic RGB modes on the monitors themselves, but the software refuses to sync both monitors. This means you won't be able to sync lighting modes with both monitors and you won't be able to use the awesome ambient backlight to match the colors on the display. When you connect one monitor, you can change these settings. But when both monitors are plugged in after lighting setup, both monitors will literally default back to static colors (huge problem). This is 2020, people use dual monitors... 3. Flickering on HDR mode (sometimes), using display port 1.4 and GTX 1080 Ti (updated drivers). 4. Will only run at 120hz for 10 series nvidia GPUs (not a con, just an FYI). 5. Very sleak looking. Black borders are very nice - especially on a dual monitor setup. 6. When RGB works with one monitor only, the light effects are great. Overall: I will be forced to return these monitors unless they update the software to allow multi monitor control. The flickering in HDR mode is concerning. It only happened with one monitor, so it's possible the monitor is defective. I'm going to continue to do research and contact LG support. These are brand new monitors, but honestly there is no excuse for the lack of software support on a multi monitor setup. Thanks for reading, hope this helps.

Perfect for my 4K 144Hz PC Gaming Needs
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had this monitor for around 9 months now and it has been everything I could ask for with displaying my PC gaming in crystal clear 4k HDR at 144 Hz. The monitor is just the right size based on my home office setup and I ended up replacing the stand with a desk mount. The RGB on the backside is a fun extra effect for adding color to the room and overall I am happy with this purchase. Many may flinch at the price and many may question 4k on this monitor at this size vs just having 2k (and a reduced price) and based on my experience there is a meaningful enough difference if you can afford the price.

So many pixels!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.4K at 27" is a sweet spot for me at approximately 30" viewing distance. This thing is plenty bright and the response time is great for games. Check it out in person, if possible!

Great monitor!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the RGB ring light at the back of the monitor! The 4K resolution is very satisfying! Would’ve been absolutely perfect if it had HDMI 2.1, but overall, great monitor!

Good screen for games at a reasonable price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty nice 4K screen. The response time and refresh rate are good for PC games. The HDR is not great, and is almost a useless feature. The colors in HDR mode are worse than in standard mode. With that said, the range of colors in 10 bit mode is a nice improvement over my older 8 bit IPS panel. Also the contrast ratio is better than my older IPS.

LG disappointment.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Monitor itself is fantastic. The colors are crisp, and vivid and the features are nice. The lifetime of the model, however, not so much. I purchased one in 22' it stopped working in '24. Reached out to LG and they offered to repair it for $300, basically the price of a new monitor. Do yourself a favor, and look elsewhere.

Amazing monitor
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for 4K gameplay. The 144hz is awesome since i dont use this monitor for competive fps. The clarity is great and the bezel design is one of the best.
