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

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Excessive IPS glow and backlight

I have already tested three of these LG 32GP850-B monitors. This particular model seems to have excessive glowing/bleeding compared to other makes and models in general. Next; The picture is clear, the colors are decent, the response time is fast, the refresh rate is high, the design is simple. I like the lack of noticeable ghosting and black spots like my previous Dell S3220DGF VA monitor. It's a great gaming monitor as far as specs go, but I would ONLY recommend it if you can ignore the insane amount of ips glow and backlight glare. In my experience the LG 32GP850-B lacks quality which is very disappointing! - First Monitor: Crashed and became unresponsive with 180hz overclock disabled, very loose menu joystick, noticeable blue glow on top left - Second Monitor: Thought this was a sentinel until I found a dead pixel in the noticed in the middle of the screen. Third Monitor: Excessive glowing/bleeding in the right corner with a slight brownish tint when viewing dark or black screens. I know this is my nitpick, but the NVIDIA sticker is crooked. I still use this one. All three monitors had handprints/fingerprints all over the screen and on the back which didn't make me feel like a brand new item.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Tight color palette
