Review on LG 32GP850 B Ultragear: Adjustable 2560X1440, 165Hz, Height & Tilt Adjustment, Anti-Glare Coating by Jose Popal

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The GP850 has a strange sleep behavior and the GP750 does not switch input automatically.

Summary: Think twice before you buy if you have more than 2 monitors and/or more than 2 PCs. The GP850 has a strange deep sleep issue that causes Windows to get confused and clutter up (a problem with 2+ monitors). GP750 does not switch input source automatically and you have to click 68 times to switch manually (problem with 2+ PCs). GP850: Overall a good monitor with a strange problem: After waking up from hibernation/standby, my Windows sometimes fails to recognize it for a short time. Whenever this happens it moves all my main screen windows and everything else to my secondary and third monitors. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's a bit annoying. I do not know why. GP750: I tried it later and am very happy that it has settings to turn off the deep sleep feature that was causing sleep issues with the GP850. However, the automatic input switching does NOT work on the GP750, it just doesn't recognize it. The only exception I've found so far is when you've activated a new input within a few seconds of disabling your old input, but in practice this almost never works... (regardless of what auto-detection settings I've used) Attachments - This video.

Cons
  • Screen Tearing: This occurs when the monitor's refresh rate is too slow, causing the image to appear choppy or distorted.
