Grabbed this from my local best buy because I've never used a widescreen monitor. It has changed my gaming habits significantly. It's incredibly immersive and works well off of my 4080. I've played a few FPS games and a couple of RPGs using it. I haven't had any issues with it so far. The auto off when it's not being used is actually a great feature for me as I have two other monitors I use as well.

Originally I bought an open box and it had some damage in the form of horizontal bands near the top probably from being handled incorrectly at some point. Removing the monitor without grabbing the top and bottom is extremely tricky and their instructions tell you to grab it from the side which is more or less impossible.
This was a big upgrade for me so I can’t really complain since I had no idea what a big difference 144 hz could make.

When I first laid eyes on this monitor, I knew it was the one. Well worth ditching my Acer Predator monitor that I’d been hanging on to for 3 years. The response time is glorious, and the way those colors pop… oooooooooo baby! One of a kind. The curve serves for a very immersive experience. I’m getting another one to add to my setup in about a month or so.

I thoroughly enjoyed this monitor though i did end up returning for the 27 inch model so I can make an informed decision. Ive necer been that much into large screens for gaming as I play FPS competitively mainly (Halo) but man I mist say this screen with its agressive curve was phenomenal and i was so close to not making the swap but at the end of the day felt it would be foolish not to at least try. Only time will tell as I may end up still liking the 45 inch more than the 27, we'll see. Also. Best Buy gets 5 stars for customer service!

It was great while it lasted. 11 months into owning it I got a thick line that went horizontally across the screen. I didn’t do anything out of the ordinary, just powered it up and there it was. However before that owning it was a great! Just wish that for the price I paid it would have lasted me longer.

I originally went into best buy to purchase the Sony M9. I walked into the computer section, saw rhis montior and literally became stuck. It has a stunning picture! I never made it to the Sony M9. I immediately bought this monitor. I came home and hooked it hp to my ps5 and the rest was history. Its one of the best picture Ive ever seen. From COD, to FF16, to God of War, the picture is perfect, The picture brings the images to life. This is by far the best monitor Ive ever purchased

Excellent monitor to play videogames. Colors are really acurate. I grade it 9/10. Why?. To work is not the best option due to the resolution is "low" for ofimatic. Not really a bad thing, only a enhaceable thing.

Oh, man, when I plugged this new 45" LG OLED monitor into my new computer for the first time to play Starfield, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! What vivid, deep, amazing colors, and the graphics details were extremely immersive! Yes, it's a bit expensive, but is very much worth it if you game a LOT, like I do.
Also, by purchasing a Best Buy membership, I saved $700 off the cost of this astounding gaming monitor! Happy!!!

Personally Acer monitors have always looked best to me so buying an LG was a gamble to me. Almost got the Corsair xenon but no vesa mount. This has the same technology and has the mount. Noticed an instant difference with contrast on BeamNG and Escape From Tarkov. HDR works great. Playing War thunder and Arma you can pick out each tracer it’s an incredible light show! LG really hit it outta the park with this monitor! Highly recommend!! Five star for value because there’s no else doing it!

This Monitor's picture is simply beautiful, OLED and gaming are a perfect match. But you must change a few habits you may have had with other monitors, like leaving it on when not in use. LG does have a cleaning cycle to keep the picture from getting static picture burn in. I have learned to use the remote to turn off the monitor when I leave it. The monitor will sleep after a minute of not use.

This LG is a huge OLED Gaming PC monitor. This is my third LG gaming monitor and it, once again, it is a joy to buy and use. 1st, I got it for $700 off as a total tech member. 2nd, there are bigger monitors with better resolution but this thing barely fit on my gaming pc desk and is beyond awesome in performance specs 3rd, it is totally easy to install and use. Buy this monitor and you will not regret it.

I recently purchased the UltraGear 45” OLED Curved WQHD monitor for $1K, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! This monitor is nothing short of amazing. The colors are incredibly vibrant, creating an immersive visual experience that has truly enhanced my computing and gaming activities. It's a fantastic addition to my setup, and I highly recommend it to anyone in search of top-notch display quality.

Pretty monitor with random issues

The picture quality of this monitor blows away anything I've owned in the past, including an older UltraGear monitor. On DP, this monitor is amazing but on HDMI, this monitor will not run G-Sync and caps out at 85hz. This is frustrating because I need it connected to 2 systems and only one gets to see the full potential of this monitor. My other issue with this monitor is that it appears to freak out with certain applications when G-Sync is in use and constantly flicker on and off until I close the application and disable G-Sync prior to reopening it. With these stated cons, I'm still in love with this monitor and would highly recommend it.
