Wanted something to pair with my new 4K monitor, but didn't want to drop a lot of money, so I went with this. It is a fantastic value. Super smooth with really high refresh rate. I am not a huge computer person, so I am just finally getting out of 1080P 60Hz monitors this year. A pair of these would be great for PC gamers at a relatively low price.

The LG UltraGear QHD IPS Gaming Monitor is a welcomed addition to my home setup. I purchased this monitor with gaming and work from home in mind. With my rising usage I figured now is a better time than any to purchase a new display. I was not disappointed with my decision.
I replaced an aging LCD FHD (1080p) monitor with the LG UltraGear. The quality in construction is top notch compared to what is on my desk now. The monitor comes with a fixed stand, power adapter, and a DisplayPort 1.4 cable. The monitor has the capability to be mounted. The display is a matte finish and has wonderful color contrast and brightness. The monitor is also cable of HDR which makes movies and games look spectacular.
The display really shines when G-Sync is enabled. The display is a 144Hz panel that is able to match the frame rate of the game you are playing if you have a compatible graphics card. G-Sync can only be enabled via the provided DisplayPort cable and by changing some of the settings within your operating system.
I have had this monitor as my main display for about a month now and I only have a few complaints.
One being that the mount didn't feel super stable. This may just be user error, but I felt like the monitor was not completely attached to the stand. I have since mounted the monitor.
The other qualm I have is the built-in headphone jack. Once again, this could just be a user derived problem. I have disabled my computer from using the monitor as an audio source. It is driving me nuts. I have my PC set up to use my audio card by default now, but it still remains an option.
On my monitor HDR doesn't play nicely with the Smart Energy Saving feature. The feature adjusts the brightness of the display to conserve energy. While HDR is on the lighting of my monitor was constantly in flux. There would be times late at night where the monitor would be at full brightness for no reason and then go completely dark. I no longer have HDR enabled as I would rather not suffer too much eye fatigue from the constantly changing brightness.
My last issue is with G-Sync. When the monitor wakes up from sleep it take a few moments to enable G-Sync. The monitor will wake up, flicker on and off which takes 2-4 seconds, and then G-Sync will be enabled. It is a minor inconvenience, but one that should be noted.
Overall I really like this monitor. It does have its hiccups, but I am considering buying a second one to have a matching pair on my desk. Don't sleep on this monitor if you are considering this monitor or the 850-B.

Caught this on sale for $199. For that price you can not beat it. Bought this for my son to upgrade an old 60hz monitor so he can do some gaming. It hits all the right specs and if you get it for $199 it's a steal.

I was tired of playing ps5/xbox on a huge tv so I was looking into a gaming monitor and i fell in love with this one…..has everything i needed and was only $250. Well worth the price compared to some monitors for $400+

The monitor overall is very good! I do wish that the panel was brighter but overall the picture is good enough. No HDMI 2.1 and the stand is a little too big for my preference but you can’t ask for too much from 2k monitors at this price point. Great buy and will keep this monitor dow a while

If I had more space I would get a second one.
This monitor has been great for gaming and more than adequate for work. I was initially hesitant to go with 1440, but it turned out to be an excellent balance between performance and image quality.
My one complaint is that the stand it comes with takes up a lot of desk space and isn't adjustable, so depending on your comfort and space I would recommend mounting it.

Had the monitor for a little over 6 months. It works phenomenally! Even with a 1080 graphics card, the picture quality is insane. I do a lot of photo editing and the amount of detail I see in this vs my second monitor (scepter c27) it is night and day! What is even better was the sale that I got it on! If you’re patient enough it is 10000000% worth your money

This LG IPS monitor is great, it was my first high refresh rate monitor and I have since upgraded but I love this thing. It appears more “gray” than some other panels, however I think it’s great if you are looking for something to play fast paced fps shooters on.

This is one of the best 1440p 144hz monitors out there for the price. Only downside is that the stand isnt adjustable in any wat but since I used a multi monitor mount it didnt effect me.

It does what I was needing, HDR at 1440 144hz. I'm not great with color balance so don't know if that's great, but my games are at 144fps now, so that's something.

When it's on sale for $300 (quite often) it's a really good buy. The HDR is decent and it definitely has a high refresh rate that works excellent.

I have loved this product. I picked it up about 2 months ago and have been using it every day since then. When I say that this product is WELL worth the price, I totally mean it, this monitor is absolutely incredible. Would recommend to anybody
