> 3 dayI had connected my PS5. It had a black screen and flickering but maybe it was the 4K that was not supported on the monitor. Idk, I unplugged power cord and plugged it again and worked. It looks great and all the positive reviews of the specs are true

> 3 dayThis thing is requires a beast, but if you have the money and the horsepower to run it, it is definitely worth it. This is my first 1440p monitor, and it is great, especially for reading text. It does make games look better, but if you work from home or are a student, this is a great monitor because it has so many more pixels that you can divide the screen up without any issues. Overall, would buy again.

Greater than one weekI was initially unhappy with the warm colors, but it has an option to change the light temperature. I turned it to as cold as it goes and now I am happy. It is a good quality 2k, 144 hz, everything it says. Do think about the graphics card you have before looking for a 2k+ monitor though. My fps was impacted (2080 base GPU) by around 5-10 fps on games I made 60-90 on Ultra settings before. The smoothness of the refresh rate is very nice, soft surface with no glare/side angled color inverting, and plenty of settings to customize to your liking on color and lighting.

> 3 dayi think you get what you pay for and i should have spent a bit more. This monitor while better then the 1080p benQ it replaced, this was not the game changing 144fps monitor i had hoped for. It lacks the visual range i had hoped for but had heard complained about in other reviews ( i should have listened to them) Its not horrid but this monitor could definable stand to have much deeper black tones and better over contrast and brightness abilities. but if mid tones is where your gaming sweet spot is this is the joint for you.

> 3 dayIve been gaming on a 12 laptop with regular HD resolution for the last 5-6 years and my office computer is a pair of 20 HP screens I bought around 2009-2011 (so long ago that I cant remember). I decided going 4K was too much money because I want a three-screen setup in both my work and home offices. After a lot of research and looking at reviews I decided to get just one of these and see how I like it. Normally, I go with HP for all things computer related, but this time I went with this LG screen, and I love it. Maybe its simply the upgrade and any 27 2K screen would impress me, but it is so refreshing to have both the screen real-estate and resolution for my poor old eyes. I will definitely be basing my new setup on this screen. For 2K with great reviews, this seemed the best bang for the buck!

> 3 dayPackaging is very durable, great product for the most part. Display looks pretty good. My only complaint is the viewing angles are really not the best. See pictures for context, this is NOT the focus on the camera, the edges just get blurry at certain angles. This is not a major problem for me, just something I noticed that other similar displays had no issue with. Also worth noting, I am using a VESA mount so I am not able to provide feedback on the stand.

> 3 dayFantastic--I was able to get mine for about $250 used. That was a steal. Gaming performance is excellent. The LG even worked with my obscure video device called the OSSC. Retro gaming has never been better. The picture quality and brightness are both great. In fact, it is too bright for my taste. Really impressive what LG were able to get out of an IPS panel.

> 3 dayA very good monitor for all your UHD 1440p needs. Use it in a dark room? Turn down the brightness and youre good to go, but for your own sake do not switch modes while viewing in the dark unless you wish to unleash the power of the sun on your eyes. Youre better off saving that power for when you are fighting off the glare of the actual sun if for some reason your monitor faces the window. Other than that the colors are vibrant and its very responsive, youre definitely getting your moneys worth. Its worth noting that although the pixels are significantly smaller than any 1080p monitor, you can still see jagged edges on tiny images such as emotes but it is still a big improvement. This of course cant really be mitigated without the use of a 4k monitor. One more thing, its nice that this monitor turns itself on and off with your PC.

Greater than one weekIve had this monitor for over a year now and it working great. Took this image today now 11/26/2022 while writing this review Still vivid colors, I have 3 LGs this one was one the first ones I bought No dead pixels Great image and video quality Bloom is minimal barely noticeable. Its well worth it for the price.

> 3 dayWas looking for a new but cost effective 1440p 144hz monitor and all the reviews online said this was it. And I agree. Easy to set up and had to tweek some settings but thats normal for any monitor. No dead pixels or other display issues. Now Im sure if youre incredibly picky and demand the absolute best you wont buy this but then again, you wouldnt be reading this review.
