Pros & Cons
Pros
Slight yellowish ghosting on text with white backgrounds at 144hz, but goes away at lower refresh rates. Has slightly more ips glow in the bottom left corner but 90% of the time it’s not noticeable.
If you're someone like me who tends to keep their monitor for a long time, then it's worth going for something that meets all of your expectations so that you will be less tempted to upgrade again. It's my first ultrawide monitor, but i've been using ... Read More
Imo, this is the best all around monitor you could buy for your money. Easy setup and setting configuration. Easy to put together and easy to disassemble if necessary. Good range of height adjustment, good monitor stand as well as 100x100mm vesa compa... Read More
Cons
Display port is famous for having power management issues. It's a tremendous annoyance that creates problems in multi-monitor situations. Worked flawlessly for about 6 hours on day 1.
The reason amazon can't keep them in stock is that they are getting tons of returns. Going to return them both for refunds and go with another brand. The second one was returned to amazon for a refund while the first one was sent to lg for repair.
Lg monitor has 4 stuck pixels, 3 of which are very obvious and one red one which i could have ignored. Green subpixel dead right at the middle of the screen, which shows itself as a pink dot on white background, and a black dot on green background. Ba... Read More
Lg support is nonexistent and i can't even have the conversation to troubleshoot the matter. They can't do anything beyond the typical geek squad kind of support meant for technically illiterate people.
Highlights
Quality
Image quality is fantastic and overall it works great!
Coming from 1080p, the lines are crispy and everything feels buttery smooth.
Fastest setting will cause the pixels to refresh too fast which causes over-compensation, resulting in pixels having to re-rend... Read More
It had a gaming mode, and some performance modes, and the amount of ghosting i was made me motion sick while playing games.
Price
Yeah spending $1000+ bucks hurt but the amount of joy this thing brings me is priceless.
Expensive but amazing for work and gaming.
I got this for 958 usd w/taxes.
Is quite honestly a disappointment for a monitor this expensive.
Shipping
It shipped fast and arrived in perfect condition.
Cross-shipping was not an option (i asked) which is very disappointing.
Thankfully, lg will repair it free of charge, they’ll even pay shipping.
Packaging/appearance
But it came in intact, from what i can see so far.
Monitor came in excellent condition (the listing said the box was damaged) and i know i’ll be getting many years of use out of it.
Competitiveness
This monitor is excellent and rivals monitors well above its price point.
It has very good contrast for an ips panel (much better than the dell s2721dgf that i owned previously.
No difference between the sister model 83b-a other than the 83b-a has no cables included.
But i'll be frank, a $50 monitor arm from amazon will be superior to the included stand in all respects.
