Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought three of these for a triple monitor setup. I currently have them on mounts on my desk, so I can't say if the stands were any good. But unboxing was simple and it looks like they can be re-boxed easily. The monitors themselves are physically pretty nice. Good color, contrast, sharp details. I have them connected to a KVM with a Mac Studio, Windows, and Linux machines. The issues I have with these is the light bleeding, it's noticeable when watching movies or playing games that's dark. It took me weeks to mostly not notice it, but it's there. What I don't like is that there is no control for how long a monitor will go to sleep, so when switching between KVM and another machine, the monitors will quickly fall asleep and then the video signal gets all messed up when they're awaken again during a boot up. It's extremely annoying because I have switch ports again on the KVM to try and reset the video signal. Also, LG's support for this monitor is not good. I still can't any firmware updates for this, or any instructions on how to update firmware or find any software that works for it. I was hoping some issues would be fixed by now, but I couldn't even update it if there were any. The other issue is that my Mac Studio WILL NOT work well with these monitors if I set them to 120Hz refresh, the text and image gets blurry. It works under 100Hz and 144Hz, but I can't drive all three at 144Hz on Mac Studio without one of the monitors blinking off and on. I don't know if it's Apple or LG that's the cause of this, but 120Hz works fine on my Linux and Windows machines. Even though they are "gaming" monitors, I use them mostly for software development and need reliability when switching between devices via KVM. So far these monitors aren't very reliable when on a KVM, it's a 50/50 chance that the monitors will even turn on when switching KVM ports. Overall, they are good monitors for what they are and are probably best when used with a single device.

Just a beautiful overall image. Makes the games you used to play on your TN panel feel almost new again. I'm using a Radeon 5700XT graphics card and it produces a wonderful FreeSync gaming experience. No tearing at all. Have had some flickering but it seems to have gone away after the latest driver update from AMD, so it must not have been a monitor issue. Mine just has minor back light bleed almost not noticeable. Would purchase again.

I've been an avid LG fan when it comes to TVs and Monitors. I'm very happy with my purchase of this monitor. Connected my desktop, laptop and gaming console. Now I can easily switch from work to gaming at the comfort of my desk. Picture and color quality is superb, Found a way to calibrate the monitor and now it makes it easier for me to edit pictures, play games and watch. On-screen menu is so easy to navigate and use.

Awesome gaming monitor with the 144hz refresh rate, makes gaming 100% easier

Impatiently waited for months to get this monitor, and totally worth it. Awesome picture after some standard calibration, no blacklight bleed, which is always a concern with gaming monitors. Gsync works great with new games, Control being my newest game. Glad I waited for this instead of grabbing an asus ips with a roll of the dice you'll get massive blacklight bleed, pay quite a bit more, and have to send it back.

First of all please disregard all negative review saying that LG lie about "1ms", because all other brand do so but actual benchmark still show that this monitor beat all other IPS monitor on the market by response time and input lag. Out of the box this monitor has excellent color thanks to DCI-P3 it cover more color space and make everything look more "pop". I wouldn't say that it is accurate but it is more eyes pleasing. sRGB has more natural looking color and temperature, it has been factory calibrated and you can find the report in the box. "Gamer1" mode can be annoying in some game red HP bar and red Potion look annoyingly red. I know it all come down to panel lottery, but my unit has perfect black, gray and white uniformity it only very small area on the left that has darker shade but it is still better than most IPS i have tested. IPS glow is minimal on this one as well, i know that some people complain about contrast but i it is overrated. I don't find it as bad as other claim it is. Everything is snappy, fast response time fast input lag even on screen display menu also fast.

Good monitor runs all my games at 2560 x 1440 resolution and 144Hz with no issues. The screen being the size of a small tv it's perfect for gaming and watching shows. Knowing its g sync ready puts me at ease for whenever I want to upgrade my pc.

I really love this monitor. Going from gaming on a low end 1366x768 monitor to this was amazing. I started by booting up the resident evil 2 remake. The colors popped, The response time was smooth, and I no longer felt like I was staring at horrendously blocky images. I really wouldn't mind having another In a dual monitor set up to be perfectly honest.

Great monitor! Color is amazing. Just the right size for gaming.

handles blacks very well and handles high refresh rates smoothly, great color and picture quality. One thing of note if you plan on using a next gen console on this thing you will only get 60hz through hdmi and the monitor supports a max of 100hz through hdmi but consoles dont put out 100hz so youre stuck at 60

It works great I've had no issues with it at all windows even automatically set it to 144 hz so i didn't have too but you should always check. I would have given it 5/5 stars but when i got my package the monitor definitely looked like it was opened and thrown back in the box. The monitor itself was where it was suppose to be in the packaging but all the accessories and stand where just all over and the way it was laying about in the box doesn't seem like shipping shaking. It works great so no harm no foul.

Amazing picture! High refresh rate so it's great for video games.

Great monitor. We’re not techy professionals but the aspects of this monitor are better than expected. We were also on a budget and so we went on a hunt to purchase just the right monitor. After maybe a month, comparing all aspects and prices, this monitor became the ideal purchase. It’s been over a year and still working properly, even after moving the monitor around a couple of times in the room it resides.

Been doing an extensive search for a perfect monitor for me. Try 4 different monitors before getting this one. All I can say is.... Wow, colors, brightness, clarity, smoothness... All you can imagine. Response time, no ghosting, no flickering. Coming for a 24 TN pannel 165hz G-Sync then a VA Ultrawide 34, VA 32 curve and VA 32, this is the monitor to get.

best bang for the buck. incredible picture and easy to use

Best monitor for 2k gaming at this price point. I use it along with my RTX 2080TI my card and this monitor were made for each other as my card can put out enough frames to get me 144hz on this awesome display while playing call of duty maxed out at 2k if you have a card with similar power this is the monitor you want

Originally bought the Acer VG27AQ but it came with terrible blacks / backlight bleed, as well as a cluster of dead pixels. I was looking at competitors and found this, which has zero dead pixels and has more intuitive controls and more ports (USB ports on the back). The stand was nicer on the Acer, but in general, this is the one to get.

This is awesome, run this right next to my 4k 60 monitor and it looks just as good. Refresh rate is great at 144. I use with my PC and play Call of Duty quite a bit. Also has a few fun options like cross hairs and different gaming modes to get the most depending on the game your playing.

I am glad I decided to go with this monitor. With a capable graphics card, the display is smooth, quick and vibrant. The OSD and choice of ports are also great. The only negative comment is that the stand is very wobbly and cable management is ineffective.

GSYNC 144hz IPS 27 Inches and FLAT Viewing angles are decent and you'll get good color with this monitor. For gaming, this is probably a top 2 or top 5 gaming monitor for a QHD IPS Panel. I play Modern Warfare and other games on this paired with my Asus A15 Laptop plugged into it via USB-C to display port.
