Product Information

If your appliance develops a fault within this period, follow the steps below to open a warranty claim. I’m only sharing it here in case you have the same experience — I’ve never, ever seen this happen with a monitor before. If you agree to all of our cookies select “Accept all” or select “Cookie Settings” to see which cookies we use and choose which ones you would like to accept. I’ll lean on reviewers with professional equipment to tell you we’re talking around 200 nits of brightness, a far cry from the 1,000-nit peak you might have seen advertised. You can do a few things on the monitor via a little knob on the bottom, like change inputs, volume, and brightness controls.

APL(Average picture level) value is given as a percentage and refers to the value between the black level and the reference level for white.As a multi-purpose monitor, it ticks all the boxes thanks to its high-quality OLED display, which looks great when playing the best AAA games or while watching high-quality HDR videos.

Now, as long as you use the monitor as intended (personal PC monitor) in a residential setting (does not support commercial usage like retail signage display) burn-in is covered,” wrote LG Electronics product marketing director David Park. Over the years Alun has written on a freelance basis for many publications on subjects ranging from mobile phones to digital audio equipment and PCs and from electric cars to industrial heritage. This offers more screen space, but the monitor has a lower pixel density and worse text clarity than the 27-inch model. It has wide viewing angles and decent ergonomics that make it easy to share the screen with a coworker or client, as they'll see a consistent image from the sides.Since it is an OLED display, you do run the risk of burn-in if static images stay on the screen over long periods. The Vignetting effect, combined with the overall low panel brightness, makes game interfaces and text/CC look very unattractive as if the monitor were burnt out, old, and struggling - definitely the opposite of premium feeling. It's great for sharing your screen with friends because it has wide viewing angles that make the image remain consistent from the sides. YouTube works great at 1440p HDR, 4K HDR, and even 8K HDR on this monitor (slightly aliased due to downscaling), so there’s no particularly good reason why the paid subscriptions can’t ( it’s because of DRM).
