Gone are the days of lying to yourself that the black level on your monitor is just a gray area. This is a real fight. I have a $900 LG 4K 144Hz gaming monitor, with the parade of taillights, in my defense, a year ago it was a flimsy choice. It (like all backlit LCDs/LEDs) has horrible bleeding around the edges, and local dimming doesn't help improve the horrible black levels, it just turns your cursor into halos/flowers/blur, a tiresome eyesore.

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Dim (135 nits), Thumderbolt or DP will not go through.

135 cd/m2 is 135 nits. easily washed out by ambient light. No DP and Thunderbolt transmission. Might be perfect for darkroom gamers, but not for video posts. OLED tech is a generation outdated, not LG's current EX tech. (See LG Store Q&A).
