I hope you have a big table

It's not that the screen is huge that you need a table (although it partially is), it's that the stand takes up half of a regular table. The stand sticks out a couple of inches at the front, and the bracket at the back is about 6 inches tall. Otherwise, this monitor is just great. Outstanding image quality.

Great gaming monitor

Works perfectly, no easy bleeding which many have complained about. I was skeptical at first, but I think I got lucky. That's my feedback.

Screen burn-in in SMH <3 months ago

The picture quality was ok when delivered. Especially for money. But for <3 months of ownership the screen is already burned out. My $120 Walmart gaming monitor has lasted over 3 years. Sad. I will not buy again

No complaints, great price for what you get

I can't believe I've spent over 4 years on a 75Hz monitor. this switch changed my idea of what anti-aliasing looks like and I will never play on a monitor below 144Hz again.

Pretty good monitor

This is ideal for PC gaming. If you are looking for something open world then this monitor is not for you but if you use it for FPS gaming then this is the best monitor bang for your buck.

Expecting the best... in my rating

I expected better. Clarity wasn't very good. Use as an extended monitor, HDMI connection. Just not for me. That's my review.

Great screen for gaming

I've been using this screen for gaming every day for several months, the quality is excellent and a good size. No problems yet (knock on wood). I would recommend it.

Good mid-range gaming monitor

Bought for my son for his PS5. He likes the monitor. No lag and great picture. obviously not as good as really expensive gaming monitors, but worth the money!

Great monitor. Has all the necessary features. Claims only to the price and a short power cord. But overall a very good monitor.

I never knew what I was missing.

Replaced two ten year old 27" Viewsonic monitors with these LG monitors. The RTX2080 graphics card immediately picked up G-SYNC and magically started to work. While the monitors sit "high" for my taste, everything else about these monitors is excellent. Highly recommended. Colors are brighter, HDR gaming is fantastic, blacks are deep and not washed out like on my old monitors.

good option for 240hz 1080p gaming

Smooth smoothness when playing video games and no screen tearing. The only problem I had with my monitor is the backlight in the left corners of the monitor. It's not that noticeable, but annoying at times

Great for everything!

I got this as part of a deal but am considering buying another one. In my eyes it was less of a killer than most. I had to get an updated HDMI cable to connect it, but that was partly because the computer didn't have a display port. I connected it because it came with a displayport cable

It's worth it: my review

Bought it on sale. Absolutely worth the money. My husband loves it and says it's perfect for beginners or people like him who use it so often. He says the best part is that it tilts sideways!

Monitor stuttering is good for me

This monitor stutters when gaming, after doing some research it seems to be an ongoing problem and LG has done nothing to fix it. I do not understand it.

Amazing monitor for the price

So far this monitor has been amazing for gaming! Super awesome refresh rate, color etc. You have to download software to change the screen brightness (the switch on the monitor itself doesn't want to do the brightness adjustment) but otherwise great stuff! Definitely recommend for gaming and any other needs you have.

Works as advertised

Purchased for G Sync compatibility with my EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 (direct port) card. My previous driver issues on the old monitor have been fixed. Nice screen, no dead pixels. I liked it so much that I bought it for my son.

Very important. in my opinion

I'm not exactly a monitor expert or a pro gamer. But for casual gamers and people who just want to upgrade to a higher refresh rate monitor for gaming, this is perfect. The monitor offers many adjustment options for height, tilt and rotation. The higher refresh rate is definitely noticeable (by someone who has used a 60Hz monitor before) and I think it makes for a smoother gaming experience.

Fantastic monitor in my review.

Wanted a monitor with a high refresh rate of 1080p and this delivers. It has a few bells and whistles and is a good monitor overall. Contrast is much better than my old 1080p, with darker blacks and more vibrant colors. I can buy a second one to replace my second monitor and keep the settings consistent.
