Overall has been a very great monitor, especially for the $699 deal I got for it! Overclocking to 138hz is a nice addition as well. The only gripe I have with it is not being able to adjust every visual setting (Contrast, Brightness, etc) on every preset. But still looks and works great!

This monitor bring the PS5 to life! The colors and refresh rates are incredible. The beautiful deep blacks thanks to the Oled are a major game changer. Must have for FPS and fighting games.

Have had this now for about 4 months. Very pleased being able to see more at once, without two monitors. Great response for PC and Console gaming, lots of settings to tune to your liking.
Use about 50/50 for gaming/fun and work. So far no screen burn. Wish it would have auto input selection for active connections as I use all the input ports with my PCs, laptops and consoles.
Auto dims too fast when connected to PC (never an issue on console), but can change as needed to reduce occurrence.
Overall very pleased with this monitor, and my eyes are happier too.

Awesome monitor. I thought it would be too big, but it works great on my desk. I think anyone would really enjoy the monitor except the price. I don't think the "auto-dimming" "feature" is a big deal. Most of the time, it kicks in because the screen is idle, basically like a screen saver without going to the screensaver. Many times I'll leave it in the dim mode (it's "dimmer", but still brighter than most monitors in this mode) anyway because I'm not paying attention and I don't need "brightness of the sun" mode anyway.

I’m only leaving a review because I read the others and they are just out right crazy. THIS IS A PC MONITOR if you wanted a tv then buy a tv…. It is a oled panel with none of the extra processing that comes with TV features…. latency is key and this monitor is leagues faster then the C2 in response times, and it has all the monitor features native with the panel like auto sleep/wake screen. Also the ABL dimming is not as aggressive as the TV version which makes using it as a desktop monitor 10x better then the tv. Do not listen to the low reviews on here so far. This is at minimum a 4 star monitor and it’s a shame its getting dogged on because some people wanted tv features on a PC monitor…..

It’s a great monitor, very happy with it. The only thing I would put out there as a heads up would be the auto dimming. Every so often the screen will dim, even during active use. You can get it back to normal brightness by opening a window, highlighting text, or other actions, but it is sliiiightly annoying. Otherwise no complaints

Coming from a 49in wide screen panel this monitor blows that one out of the water. I have am using this on xbox,ps5,and pc and it is absolutely stunning on every device. The only complaint i have is the auto dimming on white pages when i am using my computer. I understand it is to prolong the oled panel but it can be annoying at times but playing games this does not happen

Bought this for my grandson as a gift. At first he thought it was too large, but once he got it set up and connected he was thrilled. The resolution is incredible. Makes it seem like you are in the game. Well worth the money, I did get it on sale.

The monitor dims while playing games. But the settings is simple but with little to customize. The graphics while playing games are ok not what you would expect from an oled. The mat finish takes away from the vibrant colors but you do get good blacks. If you want a large screen with decent refresh rates this is not a bad option if you get it while on sale.

Not a tv but a monster monitor

Its a 4k oled gaming monitor not a tv just remember that so with the display port you can get 138 hz i play with a 3090 and can say this tv is a monster just make sure your desk can support it both in size and distance. Wish it had dolby vision but most pc games dont support so i guess its just one of those things i wish it had. Needs to have buttons on it just in case you lose the remote.

I was lucky enough to get one when it went on sale for 700. Amazing value. Beautiful picture and loads of I/O. Using with Series X and mac mini m2. Love the matte finish. Firmware upgrade helped with the aggressive ABL.

It's big its beautiful! I was contemplating getting one of those curved screens and I'm glad I went this way. Games look amazing and the color representation is on point! Photo and video editing is just on another level.

I went into this knowing that certain features would be missing compared to the LG C2. I purcashed this one because i wanted the display port for my PC. I also like that the ABL can be shut off completely. Its my screen if i want it to not limit brightness and risk burn in sooner leave that decision in my hands. The image quality is fantastic like all of LG’s OLED screens. The RGB is a nice touch and i love the feet as opposed to a long stand that blocks wires. The biggest cons for me is the lack of Dolby Vision support for content and issues with images cutting out and having to turn on anf off the monitor. It also doesn’t support automatic input detection. It gets annoying that my 5 year old Sony TV can do that and this minitor cannot. Hopefully a future firmware update will fix these issues. Honestly i think I will return this for the C2.

This monitor is basically a TV! I got it for my PS5 and my games are now running at full 4K 120Hz with HDR. The display is bright and colors look vibrant. Speakers also sound very good. I have a 2021 MacBook Pro 14” connected to the DisplayPort and I can confirm that full 4K resolution with HDR at 138Hz works when you enable the overclock setting on the monitor. I have a variable (40-138Hz) refresh option in the Mac display control panel as well. I tested HDMI on the MacBook Pro and it only supports up to 4K at 60Hz when connected via the built-in HDMI port.

What a difference coming from a 49inch ultra wide. I don't think I can go back. I love the colors and I can have much more content with less scrolling. The set up is very easy and while I did it by myself I would phone a friend.
