LG UltraGear 27GS50F-B 27" 16:9 Full HD 180Hz VA HDR Gaming Monitor

Pros: - 240hz Refresh rate and compatible with both FreeSync and G-Sync. Something you have to experience with your own eyes to understand. - OSD Menu is easily navigable and has a simple and intuitive layout. Good colour setting options. - IPS panel has good colour reproduction and great viewing angles. No backlight bleeding. - Very crisp for a 1920x1080 display at 27” if you're sitting at a fair distance from it (I'd recommend about 50cm as a minimum). - Good deep blacks and great contrast. - Small bezel nearly non-existent. - The coating on top of the panel that spreads over the bezels makes the display pop out. - Good amount of connectivity offering 1x DP 1.4, 1x HDMI 2.0, 2x USB 3.0 (and 1x Up Stream) and 1x headphone jack. - Fairly good stand with quick-connect that doesn't require tools to install. Cons: - Stand doesn't allow swivel. Summary: Initially I was a bit sceptical about this monitor as it was 27” at full HD resolution. But I took the leap anyway and tried it out. I can only say that from the moment I turned it on I was not disappointed and, actually, was left amazed by it. I have it right by a 2K 27” display and I can't tell the difference in resolution when I'm sitting ~50cm away. First of all, the way it's built it makes it look like the image is popping out of the screen and makes me immerse myself better in what I'm watching. The colour reproduction is on par with a good IPS panel with rich colours, deep blacks and virtually no backlight bleeding. The box contains all you need to connect it to your PC so no need for additional accessories for a basic setup. It has great connectivity options with a few video inputs (2x HDMI 2 and 1x DP 1.4), 2x USB 3.0 outs and a headphone output. The stand isn't the best out there, but it fits the necessary requirements. The design has subtle gaming accents, but it can easily pass in a business environment as it's not overly stated. It's not as flimsy as other reviews make it out to be (I don't see how you would rock your display without touching it – unless your desk wobbles which means you should change your desk). The only gripe I have with it would be that you can't swivel it, but that's not a massive downside. I am using it with an AMD GPU and FreeSync works like a charm. It is G-Sync compatible if you do have a NVIDIA GPU. HDR10 is ok, but I'm not a great fan of it in general. I don't play a lot of FPS games, but it works well with everything else regardless. All in all, I am very satisfied with the display and I will probably get a second one in the near future after I'll change my desk to fit a third monitor. As it stands, I am using this one as my daily driver as it's great with all types of media content.
