Greater than one weekNote: This review is being written after roughly one month of ownership. After doing months of research, I had originally set my heart on LGs excellently reviewed LG 34GN850. However, it had been selling out before I could get my order in and the monitors original sale price had increased, much to my dismay. I was surprised and more than a bit skeptical then when reports that LG had a model releasing in its UltraGear line with virtually identical specs to the 34GN850 but at a lower initial price of $800 (including an extra $50 off MSRP). Seriously, nobody could get a straight answer about the differences except the aesthetics. Nevertheless, I took the shot-- fully expecting to return the model when some unknown defect appeared. With over a month of this thing hanging above my desk, Im happy to report this is the real deal! Pros: - Indistinguishable performance to the LG 34GN850-b, an already excellently reviewed monitor - Cheaper than the LG 34GN850-b ($850 vs $1000 MSRP) - Extremely fast response (even amongst other IPS panels) leading to excellent motion clarity - Excellent color reproduction over DCI-P3 with an acceptable sRGB clamp Cons: - LGs in-house warranty is less than stellar (much prefer a more robust option like the ones offered by Dell) - Typical IPS issues: low contrast, more expensive than VA panels, etc. For a much more comprehensive review of the sister model, Id recommend checking out HardwareUnboxed on Youtube. Overall, daily use of this monitor has blown me away. One big note for users with older GPUs: make 100% sure that chroma subsampling is *disabled* because it will make text virtually unreadable. The full suite of 144hz+1440p+wide gamut requires DisplayPort 1.4 (or equivalent). Its much better to reduce the color spectrum and/or refresh rate rather than use chroma subsampling.

> 3 dayI got this monitor for sale 25% and I instantly bought it. Soo far the monitor doesnt have dead pixels :) WOOO. I got lucky on the shipping. Pros: Colors are vibrant and pop off Fast response times Cons: HDR is too dark lol The stand takes lots of space and gotta consider bigger desk for it

Greater than one weekThis monitor is definitely a good deal for the price ($296). I bought two but had to return one because the screen was brighter on one side.

> 3 dayAll is good so far but..... the product should include a 3.0 USB cable since it is the only way to use the USB ports on the back of the monitor. HDMI maybe as well so do not expect either one to be in the book. There is a generic DP cable that I assume is 1.4 compliant but I bought my own DP 1.4 to be sure.

> 3 dayHigh quality, great for gamming. Has so far only been connected to the Xbox for gaming but my Boyfriend loves it and says it is a night and day difference. There has not been any issues with dead pixels and the set up was super easy. I cannot wait for him to get a gaming PC and try it out with that as well.

Greater than one weekThis monitor is legit. Great for designing thanks to the color accurate IPS panel, great for gaming thanks to the low latency/high refresh rate, and its in a not-so gamery package. Theres some flare in the back, but youll more than likely have this against a wall where you wont see it. Easy to recommend, you wont find another monitor that checks this many boxes under $1000. My monitor unfortunately fell off a truck the first time I order. It was being transferred from Amazon to USPS. During that transit they somehow lost a giant monitor box.. Im a little mad not because I had to wait longer, but because I lost out on a great price drop on this monitor. Tip, choose the option to put this monitor inside a descete box during checkout. When I did that on my reorder, it came literally the next day without any hitch.

> 3 dayContrast and vibrancy is not as good as dell ultrasharp. However it still looks really nice and the price is unbeatable. The height adjustment works out well. I paired it will my 27 inch monitor and they are the same height
