Pixel Sound is impressive! But no USB-C or Dolby V
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.-Installation- Simple and toolless if using the stand. It comes in 3 parts: the display, the neck of the stand, and the base of the stand. The stand is assembled by 2 D-ring screws found underneath the base that screw into the neck half. The display snaps into the assembled base securely with tabs. Removing the display from the stand is as simple as pushing a spring button on the back of the display down and pulling the display off it at an angle. You can also easily mount the monitor but you’ll need a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the four screws that cover the mounting holes. It uses the standard VESA 100x100 mount. -Appearance- Understated in an attractive way, distraction-free with a flair of gamer aesthetics designed to be minimal in distractions. The gamer aesthetics I’m referring to are the 2 LED light strips, which LG calls “Hexagon Lighting” on the back of the monitor that are customizable to 21 different colors across the spectrum. You can set 4 different static color presets, cycle between those 4 colors, or turn off the lighting. With the lights off, it looks really professional, and would fit right in an office work environment. With the lights on, it’s best utilized on an island desk if you’re trying to show it off, or against a wall in a dark setting. The lights will reflect off the wall and emit a glow of that color from behind your monitor. There is no branding on the display itself, and the bezels are slim at ¼” with the bottom bezel slightly wider at 3/8”. There is no chin. The branding you’ll find on the monitor is glossy logo on the back of the display that does not light up, the neck of the stand, and the foot of the stand. The branding on the stand is so understated though, you’ll have to look hard to see it. The only branding that pops is a Nvidia G-Sync sticker on the bottom of the neck of the stand, which you can always peel off, but is also somewhat out of the way as it is. There is no Power/standby LED -Stand- Functional, practical, and rock solidly sturdy. The base is metal that gives it substantial weight but is covered in a hard plastic. It still looks and feels premium. Nothing about it is flimsy. There’s no creaking or flexing when I move the monitor around or make adjustments to it. The stand has a hole in the neck of the stand for cable management that measures 3” across, and 7/8” vertically. The monitor can pivot so you can view the display in portrait mode. From landscape to portrait, it clockwise, with the inputs being on the left side. It can tilt and swivel but the angle adjustment allowed was clearly designed for a single seated person. It doesn’t tilt enough for you to view it comfortably while standing looking down at it. And even more disappointingly, the swivel angle is even more limited; not enough to share the screen with someone sitting right beside you. At its lowest height adjustment in landscape, its height is 19.75”. But since the vent is on the top, you’ll need more clearance than that. The space between the bottom of the monitor and the stand at its lowest height adjustment is about 3.25”. It won’t get as low as the stand. At its highest adjustment, that space is 7.875”, with a height of 24.57”. Since the base of the stand is flat and solid, you can put stuff on top of it. -Cooling- The monitor is cooled by a fan that is inaudible during actual use since it gets easily drowned out by a premium quality quiet computer fan like my Noctua NF-A20. You’d only hear it in complete silence. The exhaust vent is located on the top of the monitor, though you won’t feel any breeze; just exhaust heat. The intake vent is on the bottom. You won’t feel any heat around most of the monitor except for the center, where the heat is clearly concentrated to. Within that heat zone, it’s coolest on the bottom, hottest in the absolute center, and hot in the top. -Burn-in measures- There are 4 different OLED Screen Move modes, where the display will periodically shift the pixels in a different direction but seemingly never in a way you notice it happening after the first initial shift when you make the selection. Curiously, by default, this option was turned off. As previously mentioned, it’s cooled by a fan. I can’t tell if it’s in combination with a heatsink but the sides of the monitor are cool to touch with no heat from the front or back of the display. The center may be a concern because that’s where the heat lies, including the front of the display. Sadly, the warranty coverage for burn-in pales in comparison to its competitors offering just a 2-year coverage. The warranty does cover burn-in, as confirmed with several LG representatives I’ve contacted myself but they’ve been more coy about it compared to the competition, that proudly advertise a 3-year OLED burn-in coverage. -Inputs- 2 x HDMI 2.1 1 x Displayport 1.4 2 x USB-A (5Gbps) 1 x USB-B (5Gbps) to connect to PC and allow data connection to the USB-A ports and to update firmware 1 x headphone jack I found it disappointing that it didn’t have USB-C, which could’ve been used to daisy chain USB-C monitors. USB-A doesn’t support Displayport Alt. -Display- It uses a matte coating, which does an excellent job preventing reflections and glare. I have my monitor diagonally adjacent to my 65” TV, which is behind me. I also have my monitor almost directly underneath a ceiling light, of which there are 4 in the room. Unlike with a glossy display, I never see any reflections, just the content on my screen. Colors look accurate and do not appear muted although it may seem that way out of the box due to the manufacturer default settings combined with Windows 11’s default settings. However, it does not match up with a glossy panel if you’re looking for vibrancy. But here’s the thing that I experience: reflections ruin my enjoyment of a glossy display because I can see myself on the screen. So there is a market for matte displays. And the 32GS95UE is great because it’s matte coating has little to no noticeable negative impact on color. The coating is also resistant to oily substances like fingerprints and makes the screen easy to clean. Contrast is excellent, with no blooming. Blacks appear as true blacks. Whites are more accurate than the Whites on my S22 Ultra, which uses a glossy panel and looks more yellow by comparison. However, if you’re looking at a largely white screen, the matte coating does appear more evident. Otherwise, it’s largely unnoticeable unless you’re actively looking for it. Brightness is average. It’s not poor nor is it great. It struggles against natural light even with peak brightness set to high and the brightness set to 100, diminishing contrast quality the brighter it is. But with indoor lighting that wasn’t an issue for me. Windows 11 will have SDR brightness set to 40 by default if you have HDR enabled, which makes your desktop appear dark (in my case, too dark) since Windows 11 objects such as its Desktop is still SDR content. You’ll want to adjust the SDR content brightness to your liking from the Windows 11 Settings. Text quality is great and legible, even at 100% scaling. There’s hardly any text fringing except for white fonts (such as the default Windows system text color) but you’d have to be really up close to the monitor (like about 5 inches or closer) to notice it. At higher scaling, it’s even less noticeable even from up close. I never felt any eye strain or fatigue after several hours of continuous use. HDR with HDR content looks great. I didn’t experience black crush with my display. I used a “Black Clipping 4k UHD HDR 10 Calibration” video on YouTube and 64 was a true black. 68 was dimly flashing. This was while I was on Gamer 1 mode. -Sound- Expected Pixel Sound to be a gimmick, but it isn't. It's one of the best sounding speakers on a monitor. They're actually front firing, and sound immersive. They also get plenty loud at just 30%. And still clear at 100%. They don't sound tinny. Bass is present and not muddy. With stereo speakers sounding this great and on the monitor, it makes for a clean setup as opposed to desktop speakers. -Gaming- It has a crosshair feature, which wouldn’t be detectable by software. It also has an FPS counter, which actually reports the refresh rate. The only way for it to report actual frame rate is if you have Adaptive-Sync (which is variable refresh rate, or VRR) on. Gameplay was smooth on 4K at 200fps. I haven’t experienced any input lag, screen tearing, or flickering. With HDR gaming, such as Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I’m able to see the dark details without any kind of overexposure. Dual-Mode allows you to switch between 4K 240Hz to a 1080p 480Hz with the press of a button, as opposed to switching out 2 different such monitors. The switch takes just under 4 seconds after you press the button. Each mode is seen in Windows as different monitors, so their display settings are independent of each other. 1080p 480Hz also gives you the option to switch to a 27” or 24” sized display which helps with your field of vision for games where you need full screen awareness like first person shooters. It’s clearly the mode designed for competitive coming. However, for some reason, both display in 27” and 24” modes is not as sharp as the full screen 1080p. It’s not a huge deal with games but it’s pretty noticeable in Windows, where everything looks softer. -Conclusion- You should only consider a monitor this if you’re a gamer that's in the market for a Dual-Mode monitor. This is the first one to market. The visuals look great in SDR and HDR after calibration. The monitor itself looks great and professional. If your lighting environment handles glossy well, then you’re probably better off waiting. Pixel Sound sounds amazing and a serious standout feature. The 2 year warranty when competitors offer 3, lack of USB-C, and lack of Dolby Vision were really disappointing to me for such an expensive device that should be future proofing itself. 3.5 stars

Big, Bold, Beautiful
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great display is going to have superb color accuracy, ultra fast refresh rates, and as high a resolution as you can manage. Unfortunately the majority of gaming displays out there will only really be able to deliver two out of the three. LG's latest OLED UltraGear displays make a solid attempt at delivering all three, and mostly succeeds. The first thing pretty much everyone will notice is that this is a beast of a display. While many have chosen to design OLED displays to be more space efficient than their LCD counterparts LG seems to have chosen to keep most of the size and heft of their LCD based designs. While this does make unpacking it somewhat unwieldy (I was just about able to do it on my own - but those with shorter arms might want to plan to ask for help moving it into position.) Once it was set up though I ended up being very much on board with this. The stand is highly adjustable, with the only feature missing being the ability to rotate it (which, truthfully, probably wouldn't be practical anyway given the size of the panel.) And with the OLED taking up less space LG's managed to find space for some astonishingly decent speakers firing directly through the display rather than beneath it, making it the first monitor where I feel you could actually forgo a soundbar or external speaker setup entirely and just use the built-in audio. As far as performance goes... well, it probably doesn't come as a surprise to anyone that the image is gorgeous. I can't say it's the best looking OLED I've ever seen. Black levels are fantastic as you'd expect but colors don't quite reach the same vibrancy you might get from a phone or TV - something I attribute almost entirely to the matte screen coating. But it'll still handily beat the vast majority of LCDs, and frankly I think most will be fine accepting a little less color saturation if it means not having to deal with constant reflections and glare. And when running at its full resolution you don't notice a common complaint with OLEDs where the pentile pixel arrangement causes the edges of text to look blurred, making it ideal for daily use as well as gaming. When you do get into gaming though, the monitor shines. Frankly even at 240hz everything feels ridiculously smooth, but when switched over to 480hz mode it's almost unreal. If you're regularly playing competitive shooters or racing games this is definitely one of those features where once you've gotten a taste of it you'll probably never be able to go back. It's not entirely without cost - switching to 480hz does require you to drop down to FHD resolution and on a panel this big you'll be able to see every pixel once you do. And even at FHD, pushing close to 500 frames per second on modern games is going to take a pretty beefy GPU. But even if you can only get part of the way I imagine a lot of people would consider it to be worth it, particularly with variable framerate support eliminating the risk of tearing. And if you just can't bear to drop down to a quarter of the panel's native resolution, you'll find that even the relatively "slow" 240hz mode is plenty twitchy. Assuming you've got the desk space and the budget for it, this is an easy recommendation for pretty much any gamer.

Terrible OSD and peak brightness w/ HDR
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a beautiful screen, but the model I got was stuck at 580 nits with HDR on. Not the advertised screen brightness. I did try firmware updates and looking online. Nothing worked and the fact I would have to look myself to fix this issue is the issue to begin with. Fix the firmware and the bad OSD.

Received Wrong Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this monitor "Open Box Excellent" but actually received a 32GQ750-B that someone clever even took the effort to put a 32GS95UE-B.AUS sticker on. Still this should've been caught in the inspection process for having the wrong ports/design on the back (as well as clearly not being OLED when turned on). Extremely disappointed with Best Buy.

Matte finish is terrible :(
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got sick of waiting for the ROG PG32UCDM to come back in stock at Micro Center so I decided to get this, thinking the matte finish wouldn't be a big deal, but it is. If you're looking at a page with a white background, it literally looks like the screen is smeared with a ghetto coating. I can't stand it and am bummed out because I want a 4k OLED but I gotta return this one and just keep waiting for the ROG QD-OLED to come back in stock. Hope this review helps you if you're picky like me.

Bad QC & Issues Abound
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I should have taken the fact that the display model at my local store was cooked into consideration before buying this garbage. The "hotkeys" for switching between 4K and FHD don't work at all. This is one of the main selling points of the monitor... Text clarity at 4K is shockingly bad, and VRR flickering on this display is awful. There is no active cooling solution on this monitor, which is a pretty crazy choice as well. The build quality is questionable at best, and for the price I expected this to be so much more than it is. This isn't worth it even on sale, and I will be returning it for a refund.

Beautiful OLED with Options for Any Gamer
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.~~~~Display~~~~ LG makes beautiful displays, and they didn’t pull any punches with this one either. The ultra gear OLED has vibrant colors while having those deep blacks that OLED panels are known for. There’s several presets to go through including optimized settings for first person shooter or role playing games. You can also go in and make your own adjustments to customize your color preferred tone. One of the things that makes this display unique is it’s ability to switch from 4K UHD at 240hz, which in itself is impressive, but if your more into competitive gameplay, you might find the 1080p at 480hz advantageous to your gameplay. It really is just a simple as hitting a button as well. Using the dedicated button on the bottom you can toggle between the two modes. A good use case for me is playing a game like New World Aeternum, where you have a game world diverse with color, floral and ethereal elements, and occasional competitive where the 240hz keeps everything very smooth. I then transition to battlefield 2042 where playing to the strengths of the 480hz at the lower, yet still high definition 1080p, can give a slight advantage. I’m not sure if I’m skilled enough for it to make a difference, but I need all the help I can get. The cherry on top is LG also advertises it’s a 0.03ms response time. This, along with freesync and G-sync technology, you have the full gamer package no matter what you play. ~~~Design~~~~ The design is solid. There’s an adjustable base that snaps into place on the back. The base of the stand is sturdy and I have no concern of it being easily toppled. When it’s all setup, the monitor and base together is a bit heavy, but given the size, you wouldn’t want any accidental knock overs. You can also opt to mount it using a VESA mount. I/O isn’t bad. You have two HDMI and one Display Port, a cable for each is included. You can also use the monitor as a USB hub with two USB 3 ports. The ports are located just off the back facing down. There’s a cover that covers the cables coming down for a cleaner look and they can be routed through the eye of the stand. Not a big bullet point but I thought it was nice LG included the VESA screws with the monitor. There is also a LED accent on the back that you can adjust in the settings for a few different colors. It’s little details like this that makes me have respect for a brand. ~~~Menu and Features~~~ The menu can be accessed from the button on the back, just above the bottom of the monitor. It’s easy to get to but I noticed the way I have my cables routed, they’re getting in the way. I would have liked to see the control on the bottom or off to one side. From the menu you have your standard contrast, brightness, and mode control. You can also adjust preset picture settings as well as on screen information such as an FPS counter and different style crosshairs to be placed in the center. In the general section you’ll find several settings for maintaining your OLED panel to prevent burn in and pixel fatigue. Something I’m seeing more manufacturers do is include software to control the display settings from the desktop. LG has done this as well although I’m not sure when I noticed the installer icon on my desktop. A link for the software on the box or on a sticker on the panel would have been enough for most. Aside from this, the software is intuitive and easy to use. It doesn’t offer as many settings as the on screen menu from the button will allow which I thought was a little strange since a mouse and app is a bit more intuitive. They have a bit of work to do here. There is also a screen split option not found in the built in menu on the app that basically serves as an app launcher but will place the app in specific zones on the screen. For me this would be useful to launch teams and outlook when I’m connected with my work PC or OBS and Discord when I’m gaming. LG continues to make very impressive monitors and I can appreciate they continue to give consumers choice. Without much effort you can lean into the immersive world at 4k UHD resolution, still at an impressive 240hz or cut the limits away of technology by playing at 480hz at 1080p resolution for FPS game types.

An amazing display for games and everything!!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is pretty amazing and has the most vivid colors and deepest of black you can have on a monitor based on my experience so far. For gaming, many games really pop even more on this monitor due to the quality of the picture where the deep blacks and no bleeding make everything feel like there's more depth in the image. It's really hard to describe but it's almost like having a 3D display in certain instances without the glasses, it's really quite good. Out of the box, it's super simple to setup and you get full adjustability in this monitor's stand allowing you to orient it horizontal or vertical. It even has tilt so you can dial it in just right. In terms of how this thing looks, it's great with a minimal bezel (but enough to put a web cam and light bar on without interfering with the display as I did). The cable management is great and hides the cords while not restricting movement should you reorient the display (provided you have long enough cables). In the box cables are included, HDMI, display port and USB but they were all standard length and may be short depending on your setup and is something I wish LG would have considered. Larger displays like this tend to take up more room so if your tower or dock is near the monitor (or under your desk near the monitor) the included cables will be just right, otherwise they will be short. If you have an adjustable height desk and your tower is on the floor and your desk moves up to 48", you will most definitely want to get longer cables if you don't have them. On the bright side it does make cable management easy because there's not a bunch of excess to hide but it's something to note if your setup requires longer than standard cables. The monitor does NOT have a built-in power supply so there is a fairly large brick you have to hide under your desk. This monitor has a built-in USB hub so you can connect your keyboard/mouse to it rather than your tower or dock to help with cable management so there's some tradeoffs. It has built-in speakers which frankly are very much welcomed though not loud but perfect if you want sound outside of your normal sound system for causal entertainment, video calls or system sounds. They are decent and surprisingly good for built-in speakers but don't expect them to replace a good sound bar or desktop speaker with sub. Setup out of the box to tweak the image was easy and I found that all of the preset color modes fit my needs but there's an ability to calibrate this display and tweak it your way. The on screen display navigation isn't too hard once you get the hang of it but like with most monitors you can set it and forget it for the most part. This monitor has an AWESOME dual mode which will let you run it at 480hz at the press of a button so that you can go right in to FPS games with the top refresh rate, and paired with a high-end graphics card you would have a serious edge with this hardware. That said, even aside, the 240hz just by default is great for most games and makes everything snappy and buttery smooth. The only thing that took me a few days to get used to is this display felt like it had a slight curve jumping toward you but I think that was just me adjusting from my old display and now a few days in I don't even notice that any more and notice how much better this displays image is than every other display in the house except my Sony OLED TV and I'd definitely say this has a sharp vivid image on par with that except it's on my gaming computer at my desk. I'd definitely recommend this display and if you see it jump on sale, I'd say go for it, you won't be disappointed, it's a huge upgrade over a normal high refresh rate LCD display!

Excellent Gaming Monitor!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is a remarkable monitor for gaming and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a 32” 4K OLED monitor. The gaming experience is excellent. I’ve been using LG monitors and TV’s going back many years and they have consistently offered reliability, great image quality, and a refined product. This monitor is no different. The monitor ships in a standard brown monitor box. The box comes with the stand pieces, a box of cables, and the monitor itself. The white color is excellent. For those looking for a white PC setup, the white extends to not only the monitor back and stand, but also the cables and power adapter. The stand is high quality and the base is made of metal. You can push the monitor fairly far back on the desk with this stand. I have a 25” deep desk and find the stand allows the monitor to be pushed back enough for a comfortable viewing distance. Of course there is a VESA mount for those interested. The display uses W-OLED and is a semi-matte coating. Much commentary exists online about glossy vs matte displays. Ultimately it’s a personal preference, but I am used to my PC displays being matte so this fits right in. It’s a little bit less grainy than a typical matte display; I find that it looks great. The display image quality is also excellent. The WOLED sub pixel layout has no color fringing and the text clarity looks nice even at 125% windows display scaling. The 240hz refresh rate is amazing for gaming, especially games like first person shooters. The display supports G sync and I saw no tearing or artifacts. I personally use the display with peak brightness set to high because for real world content, the brightness is a bit higher. I also hooked up a PS5 to the monitor via HDMI and had no issues at all with high refresh rate, VRR, and HDR support. For even higher refresh rate at the expense of downgrading to 1080p you can even set it to 480hz 1080p which for some gamers will be a welcome addition. Speaking of HDR, the monitor does work with HDR and the implementation seems pretty good. Windows HDR looks washed out on SDR content but that’s not the monitor’s fault, it’s how the process works. Once you open up an HDR application, it looks great. For me, I generally prefer to just leave it in SDR. On the PS5 the HDR does work well also, and it would be personal preference if you want to use it or not in the PS5 settings. The monitor has a built in USB hub which works great and also allows you to update the monitor’s firmware. LG sometimes puts out an update to improve the HDR curves or fix small bugs, so it can be useful to have that. Personally I find this monitor better than other QD-OLED based monitors on the market because it doesn’t have the typical text color fringing found on the glossy QD oled monitors. Additionally, perhaps more importantly, in a medium or brightly lit room, the blacks look black. On many of the QD oled monitors, the blacks in that situation have a bit of a purple look to them, which defeats a lot of the benefit of OLED for me. This would be personal preference for people, but it is something to think about. Personally, I find the LG to be perfect for my use case of a gaming PC used throughout the day or night. Overall this is an excellent monitor I can’t recommend enough. It’s good for both console and PC gaming, or productivity. It offers excellent build quality and excellent image quality at a reasonable price.

Gamer's OLED, Smooth Motion without the HDR pop
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first OLED monitor, but not my first OLED device. I own an LG OLED, and my mobile phone has an OLED screen. I never get tired of looking at blacks and an immersive viewing experience that's hard to articulate until you see it for yourself. OLEDs, including this monitor, just look better to me than an LCD in the same price range. Movies and TV shows look very good, if not lacking in some aspects. More on that below. The LG 32GS95UE-B is an awesome choice for PC gamers. Its fast response time delivers crispy motion and minimal input lag, making gameplay feel incredibly responsive. Super smooth scrolling and transitions. The perfect OLED black levels and contrast ratio look amazing in a dark room. With a 240Hz refresh rate, motion appears incredibly smooth, further enhancing the responsive feel. It even boasts a 480Hz Dual-Mode for competitive gaming, but I'm not at that level. I also don't own the hardware to push games to that frame rate. Maybe someday...I can dream. That said, there's something about the image that doesn't wow me. High HDR brightness scenes aren't as bright as they should be. Colors don't pop like they should. Movies and TV shows look very nice but HDR content just can't get bright enough and the colors aren't the most accurate. I'd like to compare it side by side to the competition but the reviews seem to back up my perception. On the upside, the text clarity is excellent. I didn’t encounter the issues some have mentioned regarding graininess because of the matte coating on the screen. My office is bright so the matte texture is beneficial. Honestly, you don't notice the matte coating. Regardless of the resolution, you'll benefit from an insanely low 0.03 ms response time. The monitor also features AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology, which gives you smoother gameplay with both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards. Overall, no matter which refresh rate you choose, you can expect a silky experience. The back of the monitor features a good number of ports, including two HDMI ports, one DisplayPort, two USB-A ports, and a single USB-B port. Accessing these ports was a bit of a pain because the ports point down versus other monitors that point out. I had to turn the monitor around to see them clearly. They do have an easily accessible button to switch between different refresh rates. However, this monitor lacks additional productivity features such as USB-C connectivity or a KVM switch, and it also does not support Dolby Vision. I miss not having a USB-C port to connect my second desktop computer via USB-C. I would expect a Swiss army knife of ports for the price this monitor costs. The 32GS95UE-B has a simple interface but I think they went too simplistic and don't offer enough customization and settings. Also, opening and closing the menu is slow, though, it is responsive when clicking the joystick button on the back to scroll through settings. The Pixel Sound feature on this monitor sounds unique, since some gaming monitors don't include speakers. It delivers a semi-surround sound effect that is noticelable, and the speakers can get loud. However, they produce a thin and flat sound. I would expect the majority of gamers or media enthusists to use high-quality headphones or separate speakers. If you play games competitively or want a monitor with an exceptionally high refresh rate, this is an excellent choice. Additionally, if you're in the market for a 4K gaming monitor that offers gorgeous visuals, you won't be disappointed here either. You might want to shop around if you want a monitor that can do everything or gives you the brightest colors and HDR. It's a beautiful monitor with a premium image and all the pros of an OLED screen.

Beautiful looking 4K gaming monitor!!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG UltraGear 32" OLED gaming monitor is an absolutely amazing gaming monitor, with great performance and great picture quality, this monitor fully delivers on everything you would want from a gaming monitor. This monitor is G-Sync and FreeSync compatible meaning whichever popular graphics card you have you will have a seamless gaming experience. The Dual Mode allows you to switch between 4K (3840 x 2160) 240Hz and 1080p (1920 x 1080) 480Hz. This allows you to choose between better FPS for more competitive games or a more immersive experience for other games or media. You can quickly and easily switch between the modes with a switch located on the bottom of the screen, there is also an option to change the screen size from the full 32" down to either 27" or 24" to get even better performance while in 1080p mode. Speaking of the menu options, you have the full complement of options that you would expect from a gaming monitor; FPS counter, crosshair, etc. My only complaint with the menu is the physical location of the menu button is on the bottom and behind the monitor making it difficult to have anything located directly under the monitor if you need to access the menu frequently. I typically have my center speaker directly under the monitor and had to move it slightly behind so that I could access the menu button of the monitor. The OLED display is absolutely stunning, I have seen many reviews and videos about how much nicer OLED looks compared to an IPS or LED monitor and you really can't appreciate the difference in picture quality until you actually use it. I have an older version of an LG UltraGear that I use as a second monitor and the difference between the two displays is astounding, the LG UltraGear OLED monitor is the best looking and best performing monitor I have ever used. I will be getting a second to add as my second monitor because it is just that good looking. I would absolutely recommend this display to anyone that is looking for a gaming or productivity monitor.

One of the Best 4K Gaming Monitor in the Market rn
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As an avid gamer and tech enthusiast, I recently made an exciting addition to my gaming setup with the purchase of the LG UltraGear 32" OLED gaming monitor. After spending some time testing and evaluating its features, I am eager to share my experiences and insights about this high-end device. Display Quality The first thing that stands out with the LG UltraGear is its OLED panel. The colors are vivid and accurate, offering a visual treat that enhances any game or video. The Ultra High Definition resolution sharpens every detail, making graphics appear incredibly crisp and immersive. Whether I'm exploring vast landscapes in open-world games or editing high-resolution videos, the quality of the display consistently impresses me. Performance What truly enhances my gaming sessions is the monitor’s 240Hz refresh rate. The fluidity with which the images move is astonishing—it's a game-changer for fast-paced genres where every millisecond counts. Coupled with an exceptionally quick 0.03ms response time, the monitor eliminates motion blur and ghosting, allowing for precise and timely reactions during intense gameplay. HDR and Color Supporting HDR, the LG UltraGear elevates the visual experience further by intensifying the contrast and enriching the color spectrum. Games and videos that support HDR content look more dynamic and realistic, with enhanced brightness and shadow details that add depth to every scene. Design and Connectivity The monitor sports a sleek, modern design that fits perfectly into my gaming environment. It offers multiple connectivity options, including HDMI and DisplayPort, which makes it easy to connect to various devices. The versatility in connections is practical for my setup, as it accommodates my PC, gaming console, and other media devices without the need for constant reconfiguration. However, one drawback is the visibility of the cables. Although the design is streamlined, the wires are not completely concealed, which can detract slightly from the overall aesthetic of my gaming setup. Gaming Features Equipped with both NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, the LG UltraGear ensures that screen tearing and stuttering are problems of the past. These features synchronize the display’s refresh rate with my graphics card, providing a smooth and uninterrupted gaming experience. Other thoughtful inclusions like dynamic action sync and black stabilizer enhance visibility and responsiveness, which is particularly beneficial in competitive gaming scenarios. Conclusion In conclusion, the LG UltraGear 32" OLED gaming would be an outstanding investment for anyone serious about gaming or in need of a high-performance monitor for creative work. Its superior display quality, combined with advanced gaming features, provides a competitive edge and enriches the overall user experience. If you're in the market for a monitor that offers both top-notch performance and breathtaking visuals, I highly recommend considering this remarkable piece of technology, despite the minor inconvenience with the cable management.
