LG 27GP850-B Ultragear Gaming Monitor 27-Inch QHD (2560 x 1440) Nano IPS Display 1ms Response Time 165Hz Refresh Rate NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible AMD FreeSync Premium Tilt/Height/Pivot Adjustable Stand

Got the monitor for my son for gaming with his Xbox and obviously the computer. It's noticeably sharper than a 1080p display, even at 27 inches. The picture is crisp and colors are great on SRGB mode. I don't use HDR on the monitor since max brightness is only around 450 nits. True HDR takes more brightness or more contrast, like from an OLED. I cant wait until a 27 inch OLED costs around $300-$400, but until then, I think IPS is the way to go right now. Mini LED is also still too expensive. The display looks great, has a good menu and is adjustable. The stand for the monitor is awesome, but if you want a monitor arm, it has the Vesa mount on the back. All around, great monitor for the newest Xbox and for computer gaming. Probably good for work as well, but I'm not a professional editor or anything, but its buttery smooth in regular tasks too. Kinda wish it was a $250 monitor and not a $350 monitor, but you get what you pay for, and this display looks awesome and plays great.

After more than two months of using the monitor, I am convinced that it has been an excellent purchase. Fortunately, the price is no longer as high as it used to be and it is still a standout option in the market. I liked the care in the packaging and the perfect condition of the monitor when I received it. In terms of usage and setup, I haven't faced any issues, which is a big plus. When it comes to gaming, its performance is outstanding and efficient, making the gaming experience amazing, especially for its 165hz. Although I find the base a bit large for my taste, I recognize its necessity to firmly hold the monitor. I don't use the overclock function much, but it works well; I prefer to keep it at 165hz. The motion blur reduction didn't quite convince me, but this doesn't affect my overall rating of the monitor. Colors are vivid and the color pre-calibration is exceptional, which significantly enhances the viewing experience. However, I do have one criticism regarding the manual panel, which I find slow, especially when I need to switch profiles or game-specific settings. Also, the lack of a wider variety of profiles for total configuration. Despite these minor drawbacks, I highly recommend this monitor for its overall quality and performance.

180hz (O/c) at 1440p is great, and is honestly perfect for me personally. I’m ballin’ enough to have a 3080, which could do 4K, and I imagine the 4000 series and AMD equivalent will slay 4K gaming at higher refresh rates, BUT for the average eyeball? A 2K monitor is plenty resolution, with very little performance cost. Like VERY little, nay I say an unnoticeable frame hit from 1080p whereas your performance will take a hit running a game in 4K even with your upscaling technique of choice. The monitor is plenty bright, bright enough to play with light on and with the super sweet semi matte (not glossy) finish that I LOVE it makes the screen look fantastic. Colors look great too. Being an IPS screen, there will be some glow in which your mileage may vary, but it’s not very noticeable to me unless it’s dark and the whole screen is black, not immersion by any means. While I’m not really a fan of the 180hz hiding behind the overclock mode, which btw may perform different for each monitor as well, it works and runs just fine on my unit, so … woop woop. Oh, and the ports on facing out from the monitors back, not facing down, which I’m personally a fan of as I use a monitor arm but is a point to note

I've now owned 4 of these LG27GP850 monitors. Not because I had to return 3 of them. Because they were when they came out, and are still in 2024 one of the very best 27" 1440p gaming monitors on the market. Outside of OLED 27", LGs Nano IPS panels have by far the best and most vibrant color and accuracy available. If you are sifting through all of the 27" gaming monitor options out there you know it can quickly become overwhelming. Most uniformed people buying their first decent gaming monitor, look at how fast its advertising to be and just get the cheapest one. Bad decision.. There is so much more that goes in to making a gaming monitor worth your money. Input lag, motion blur, real response time (not what's advertised on the box), color volume, peak brightness, etc.. As an example, the GP850 at 180hz looks considerably faster than an off brand 240hz monitor with a VA panel. Without going into 8 paragraphs that nobody will read, at its current $229 you will not find a better gaming monitor for the price, period. If you need to keep it under $200, there is always the open box option. The one I just purchased was an open box "like new" condition which cost $190. It looks and functions as if it were brand new and had zero hours of use on it which can be confused by checking the information in the monitors OSD menu. And at sub $200 honestly this monitor is a no brainer. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because when talking it out of the box it had some someone's finger prints on the stand and some around the edges of the screen. So whomever inspected this at Amazon was not wearing gloves, which they're supposed to. Took me a few minutes with a microfiber cloth to clean it up which I wasn't happy about. But to save $40,. I'll deal. The quality of the monitor was not effected. At 1/3 the cost of a decent OLED, you are certainly not getting only 1/3 the monitor. I've owned two OLED gaming monitor now. A KTC 27" and an LG. $550 and $700 respectively. While yes OLED is the future, it's still far outside most people's price range. IPS use to be where OLEDs are now. Very expensive and everyone wanted one. It's still the way to go in my opinion. LG has the most high tech IPS panels available and are still a great choice for the vast majority of gamers. Now, if you can afford a 27" OLED make sure you do your research. They are not all created equal. And the current generation have noticeable text clarity issues and risk of burn in. I'd highly recommend waiting a couple more generations until the tech is more refined and nagging issues get resolved. Bottom line, the LG27GP850 is not some budget gaming monitor with lofty specs it can't deliver on. It's one of the very best in it's class and at the current price is really good buy that I totally recommend from 3 years of experience with them.

The Best

Love it

En RTINGS.com la clasifican como el mejor monitor 1440p/27"/120-144/IPS junto a la M27Q-P (pero está última teniendo un gamma de colores inferior y no contar con G-SYNC aunque tiene mejor negros) Si te cuesta comparar monitores con otros para ver cuál es mejor o cuál recomiendan te diría que te quedes con este, llevo meses comparando información, precios, críticas, daños, defectos y recomendaciones sobre monitores con estás características y la conclucion fue que este tiene mejores resultados que cualquier otro aparte de contar con G-SYNC (todo un plus para tarjetas de videos de NVIDIA) si tuviera que buscarle algo negativo diría que como todo IPS tiene fugas de luz si la pantalla queda inactiva pero no se nota si hay vídeo o juegas en parte oscuras por lo que solo lo verás si desconectas el monitor del CPU y que peca al reflejar el entorno (nada de unas cortinas no solucionen) fuera de eso es excelente sus colores asombran y la calidad es increíble! También incluye cable HDMI y DispleyPort 1.4 por lo que te ahorras unos cuantos pesos Eso sí recomiendo esperar que este en oferta, yo lo conseguí en 7,400 ya con envío a Mex, por lo que podrían tenerlo como una estimación. Hay mejores pantallas pero por precios ridículos de 15k o más por lo que recomiendo igualmente ir a RTINGS.com y asegurarte de cuál monitor cumple tus necesidades y capacidades.

I’ve been using the LG 27GP850-B as my primary gaming monitor since 2022, and it’s hands-down the best display I’ve owned. The 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make fast-paced games smooth, with no ghosting or blur. The stand is a standout design with versatile options. I loved it so much I bought a second one six months later for a dual-screen setup. That said, my second unit had a single dead pixel that I noticed after a while (about six months). At first, I shrugged it off since it was tiny and only really noticeable when i was reading something. But over time, during spreadsheets or googling, that lone gray speck started to feel like a pebble in my shoe. I contacted LG support, and their process was painless: they directed me to an authorized service center, verified the warranty, and replaced the panel within a week—no arguments, no fees. The replacement has been flawless since.

Overall a really good quality monitor No problems with pixels (will update if I do) Nice features and control over refresh rate Stand and adjustment of screen is good quality and looks really nice too . For the money this is a good value mid to high end monitor .

Un monitor todo terreno, para jugar y multimedia es muy bueno, yo no hago edición profesional así que no puedo dar una opinión al respecto, pero para el uso que le dio es simplemente genial
