Great for gaming and the extra screen real estate is nice

Gaming required an ultra-wide monitor, as well as additional screen real estate, for example, to watch Twitch, read some forums, or watch YouTube videos sideways. Works perfectly! However, the HDR feature seems a bit strange. The colors don't seem right. Likes too much highs and feels a bit washed out. Although maybe it's just me. Luckily you don't have to turn this on and I turned it off. Overall this is a great monitor and I can get 75Hz despite being a free sync monitor.

Stunning picture quality

I bought it for work. This is an absolute turning point. The picture quality is just amazing. The LG OSD is great for getting the most out of the real widescreen experience. Text is very clear and images are very bright. I understand that a 75Hz refresh rate might not be enough for some gamers, but for video and office work it's just superb for the price. Good product. Hope it's safe.

Excellent monitor in my review

I love this monitor but not the fact that it cost me $70 more at Revain than Best Buy! It comes with minimal instructions on how to use it, a simple assembly diagram and nothing else e.g. B. the power switch, which is located at the bottom center of the monitor. I finally managed to find a full PDF manual for the monitor online. Once you set it up and find the power button, it's all just plug and play to set up. It comes with a 4ft HDMI cable to connect the monitor to your computer. If you…

Great monitor with speakers and HDMI cable!

I bought this monitor to replace my 24" widescreen monitor, which recently started dying. So far, this monitor stands out with a very good pixel response time. The only downside is that the monitor is 6-bit + FRC so there is hardly any visible streaking in images with many different colors (if that's what you're really looking for) but for the price you can expect some cost savings.. The ultra-wide is a game changer and I hope it becomes more popular at some point.

The audio is terrible. My surface pro 6 has better sound than this monitor, whatever you do you won't get it because of the built in speakers. They won't save you money because you want to buy a separate pair of speakers asap. to me. This is so bad that it even prevents me from listening to conversation videos on YouTube. The monitor's power button and menu controls are a bit odd, but that's not a problem. Otherwise I like it :) Note. If you have a surface pro you need a mini display to display

Great monitor for the price

For the price this is a great monitor. Picture quality is excellent, as is the menu system (not always the case with these monitors). Works very well with the 2015 Macbook Pro it's connected to - easy setup and resolution that auto-adjusts to ultra-wide. My only complaints are that the bezel is actually quite large (0.5″ all the way around the screen), the stand is cheap plastic, and the monitor wobbles slightly if the table rattles at all, and sadly it's not height adjustable. Still a really…

The value there is the best in my rating

Don't buy this monitor for HDR. It's capable but doesn't produce beautiful HDR content. This is my second LG 21:9 monitor. And it turns out to be a great value. Don't expect to be blown away by the image quality, but for a layperson it's more than acceptable. The software on my previous LG monitor was better too. For general content consumption and casual gaming, I highly recommend this product. Keep in mind that many games do not support 21:9 aspect ratio.

Big budget ultra wide

I have a small desk so I was looking for a flat 21:9 monitor for productivity and light gaming. Pros: Smaller footprint and better pixel density than a 34" 21:9 monitor - Small bezel (*see below) - Overclocked to 70Hz with no artifacts or frame loss NO free syncing on NVIDIA hardware via HDMI . -- Great colors, HDR "Effect" (not real HDR) looks great to my unexperienced eye. Cons: -- The stand is aluminum but has plastic parts. Still feels premium, but not as much as I was hoping. Not bad to…

Excellent monitors in my review

Regards! Before purchasing this monitor, I used a pair of 24 inch widescreen monitors. I bought two of these monitors and reorganized my desk to support a much wider 29" ultrawide monitor. I like the brightness and clarity of these monitors compared to my previous 24 inch monitors. I can use the same fonts but get more space, which really helps when scanning log files or programming. I bought them for work so I have no idea how good they are for gaming, but for office work they are just great.

Don't use HDMI - my new review

I am using this 29 inch monitor as a second monitor for my WFH installed from a 2017 MacBook Air. Everything on this external monitor was stretched when using HDMI - neither my computer's settings nor any third-party apps selected the correct resolution for the resolution. Instead, I bought an inexpensive mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable and that immediately resolved the stretch. The picture is not stretched, clear, bright and I even enjoy the monitors' speakers to listen to Spotify during

Lg 29wk600 - my new test

Work out of the box. Replaces the um67 29" that only lasted a year. Has a vertical stripe down one side of the screen. Not satisfied and taking another chance with LG monitors. um67 29" $330 in 2015. This time I have Bought a warranty extension for another 3 years instead of LG's miserable 1 year. I really like the size of the 29 inch ultra wide monitor, it won't weigh on your wallet and in my opinion it's the perfect size. My other screen is the Asus mg279q 144hz, it's a great screen but it's…

I like this monitor in my review.

I'm an administrator and teacher and need to open multiple windows/screens at the same time to integrate multiple sources into my working documents. This monitor is large enough to open multiple screen options at once and easily switch from screen to screen. Work factor aside, I love streaming movies for entertainment and think this monitor is amazing in terms of picture and sound!

This monitor is fantastic! Get one.

This is my second of these monitors. I had one and gifted it to my wife when I bought a 34 inch Samsung at a local electronics store.

Massive in a good way, matte finish is good for spreadsheets

Solid in a good way, the matte finish lends itself well to duplicate spreadsheets. When working with graphics, I preferred a medium-wide, glossy monitor. Now I'm more of a managerial role and it's two spreadsheets on an ultra-wide 29-inch matte screen. The base is cheap plastic, but it does the job, and my 15-inch Surface Book or 13-inch MacBook fits snugly in the crescent-shaped stand. HP used real brushed metal a few years ago, so I was expecting a metal stand.

I liked it so much that I bought a second one.

I bought the predecessor of this monitor 2 years ago and was so excited that adding a second external monitor to the first was the obvious choice for me. The setup was successful and after a few reboots everything worked with a little surprise. Lesson Learned: My Lenovo laptop has 1 HDMI and 1 Mini DisplayPort. A quick search showed me that to run 2 external monitors I would need to use both of these ports and not one of the USB ports. I first tried a MiniDisplayPort to HDMI cable but it didn't

Good monitor suits me

A pretty good monitor for the price. The screen is decent, as is the color. That's what I would expect for the price. Haven't played it but for performance it works great. The fonts are "OK" but for the price it's okay too. If you're interested in gaming I'd probably look for a higher quality monitor, but for office/production work this is a good choice.

best monitor! so clear man!

Yeah man this monitor is so sharp man. It's so super high resolution and so fluid. People say it's not 4k or 440p or anything but I don't need that person. Who needs all that when this monitor looks this good. Everyone knows you can't see beyond the retina screen anyway, and it definitely is. My only complaint is that I wish it was a bit bigger. I think it's too wide and won't fit in my TV cart unless I stack a couple of books next to it. So yes, this monitor is a good buy. Just make sure you…
