This is a great monitor with only one flaw.

This is a great monitor with only one flaw. 144hz, IPS, 1ms response "ULMB" feature, extremely low input lag, freesync, ultrawide, and curved. Color and brightness out the box are a mixed bag: some people report this monitor is super bright and colorful, others say muted and not bright enough. The culprit: LG's software settings. Solution: Set black level to low which can only be changed in OSD while using HMDI, but saves for display port. Also run windows color calibration and change in game brightness to make sure you get the punchy brightness this can achieve. Finally set the Black stabilization to what looks best, default is horrid. Brightness is little lower than I prefer coming from my 350nit TN, LG should've put in at least 300nits. Once you do these things it really immerses and is quick enough for any fps or other game, close to a 1ms TN which was a huge surprise. The only flaw: curve is just a bad trend that need to die, after a couple days using other monitors feels convex, I feel like the curve is bad for my eyes. Otherwise it would be a 5 star product.Read full review
