[Employee of bestbuy] Good for games but not good for general computing work

Will start off by saying almost everything about this monitor is amazing. Obviously OLED brings amazing colors, the infinite contrast, and that being paired with the high refresh rate makes for an awesome combo. Curve is a bit aggressive but doesn’t take much time at all to get used to. Anyone who says the PPI is too low for gaming probably hasn’t gamed on one of these panels because it is still a very sharp image. I do however want to mention the VRR flicker. I was playing Returnal and was running the first level which is a dark area. The VRR flicker was extremely distracting, I mean this is what i would consider unplayable. I thought ok cool will just shut it off when i play darker games. Later that day played a match of Fortnite that was during the daytime in game and the flicker was still noticeable and again, highly distracting. I just don’t see anyone talking about this in their reviews or see many reviewers on youtube bringing it up outside of Rtings and Monitors Unboxed. It is a big issue and people buying, not just this, but any OLED monitor should be aware of it as it is an issue. This however, is not a deal breaker for me as i have just decided to keep VRR off and I havent really noticed a difference, no noticeable tearing or stutter without it on so overall still very happy with the purchase. The picture quality and motion handling are unmatched!

This is the largest computer display I've owned. I was a somewhat concerned about resolution, considering this is at 1440 (not 4K or 5K), but ideally this is a resolution for gaming as it is more common for having higher refresh rates. The higher resolutions are beginning to see this, but those also take considerable graphics horsepower in your computer to drive them. So since I wanted to experience this display as a gaming rig, I was ok with this. The refresh is 240Hz and this is also the highest refresh I've owned. I have used a smaller display at 1440 res with a 165Hz refresh before and it was great, but this is another level. To top it off, this is also OLED. I was also really interested in this, mostly for the vibrance of color. What I notice on this because it's a matte finish, while most OLEDs I've experienced have had a reflective finish, is that the colors aren't as saturated, but they are definitely gorgeous. And the matte finish is so nice for avoiding eye fatigue. It's rated HDR400, so it's techincally HDR capable, but I wouldn't say it's the brightest. I feel like the industry is still trying to figure this out with OLED. FPS games on this are amazing, with the high refresh, the vibrance, and the curve of the display. Oh yeah, the curve on this display is really cool. I was on the fence about this, as my last monitor for gaming was smaller and flat. I got to the point of appreciating the flat view, but this thing is almost a light VR experience, I can have proper peripheral views as I'm playing and get a feel for surroundings rather than having to dart my view across the flat display. It's subtle, but noticeably more fun. I also really enjoy using this display for games that rely on maps/global views/strategy views because of the curvature. I've used this display with both Windows and Mac machines and I will say that Windows handles this resolution at this size and at this refresh better than the MacOS in my opinion. I feel like the MacOS handling of displays are limited to the onboard displays for laptops better than external displays. You get used to it, but they feel more fuzzy than what you can get with Windows 11. I've also driven this with a 4060, 3070TI, and an M1 Macbook Pro, and all didn't sweat in the least. No flickering, not graphics issues, and they all recognized the display perfectly. They were all connected through HDMI, I've not tried the DP connection yet. It gives you one DP and two HDMI inputs. It also provides a USB hub, with a provided cable to connect to your PC so I have my keyboard and mouse plugged into the display and can easily swap machines with one USB connection. Overall, using LG's OLED technology with a super high refresh and a really fast response (0.03ms), that is G-Sync and Freesync compatible has been a joy. I understand you can get this display in multiple sizes, an even larger 45 inch and a smaller 32 inch, but for me the 39 inch has been the sweet spot. I highly recommend this display if you are a gamer, or if you just want a high refresh rate to work or just for general use.

Didn't work when bought as an excellent condition open box. I bought the warranty, but apparently it only covers replacements. Since it was an open box, I was told I needed to cover the differnce or pay $180 to get it repaired. Whats the point in selling a "warranty" if I can't actually use it and it doesnt cover repairs.

Bought this back at beginning of year had to send in for repair less than 5 months and now had it back for a month and its doing the same thing again and they want me to send it back again for repair

The LG monitor did not work for me at all. And a loud noise would come on automatically when turning off and turning on I exchanged the monitor with an identical monitor and the same thing happened Fortunately, Bedt Buy Tech support recommended a MSI monitor and it works perfectly Thx Geek Squad!

[Employee of bestbuy] I didnt like the build quality and picture, no good

My monitor got delivered with dark lines in the panel in many spots, and best buy wants me to pay $500 to replace a defective device. But it anywhere else

Died in less than 6 months, screen semi turns on then fades to black. bummer

After 3 months it stopped working and sending to LG for 4-6 weeks of repairs. Not very happy

Used it for one hour came home from work to unwind and enjoy my new monitor and it was completely dead tried everything to get it to turn on !!!

Total immersion, that’s the only thing I can use to describe this monitor. I’ve never used a monitor quite like this one, the size, the cutting edge features all make this the best gaming monitor I’ve ever used. The monitor itself is gorgeous. The build quality is top notch with a really cool edgy look and smooth tilt and up/down movement. It’s very evident from the build quality alone that this is a premium monitor. The picture quality is second to none. The 2k resolution looks amazing when playing games and the dramatic curved screen really makes you feel like your in the middle of what your playing. Under the hood of this beautiful display is some amazing tech too. It supports g sync and free sync that keep all my games running so smooth. I’ve yet to see any stuttering. Overall this is an incredible monitor with every feature you could want. Great for gaming at a really high resolution with options for hdmi and display port. I can’t recommend this monitor enough to bring your gaming to the next level.

I bought this for my significant other in October 2024 while there was a phenomenal sale. I am very happy that I did as his gaming experience has been elevated. According to him, it has the best picture he has seen and the latency is top tier! My only con is that for the price, there are no speakers on this monitor. I assumed there would have been but just know you may need to purchase those if you do not have them or use a headset :)

Although it comes with a lower resolution compared to other ultrawide curved displays, this one delivers a very responsive wonderful picture. So much that I am considering buying also the 45' version.

Fantastic monktor.. you wont find better at 999$… buy it while its that low.

Recently brought this monitor, the monitor I was using before was an old 720p RCA tv the visuals and colors are amazing on this LG definitely worth the upgrade.

This monitor is fantastic, however the one I received had pretty severe color banding. Make sure you run some tests when you get it home before it’s out of the return window.

This is a nice monitor for pc gaming not console gaming

no clear explain on burn in. this has been always some
