 LG UltraGear 27GN800 Gaming Monitor - A Comprehensive Review

The LG UltraGear 27GN800 is a gaming monitor with a 2K resolution and a refresh rate of 144Hz. It features a premium IPS panel, which provides impressive colors and a 99% sRGB color gamut, making it suitable for basic color correction work. The monitor also supports VESA mount, making it easy to mount on a wall or a monitor arm.

The unboxing process involves separating the monitor stand into two parts, attaching the neck to the base, and setting up the monitor. The front of the monitor has an LG and Nvidia G-Sync logo, while the three sides have slim bezels, giving it a nearly borderless look. However, upon turning on the monitor, some black borders become visible, but this is an illusion caused by the tape used for packaging.

The back of the monitor features a glossy red LG UltraGear logo, air vents in a round shape, and various ports, including DisplayPort, HDMI, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The monitor also has VESA holes for easy mounting on a monitor arm. The overall build quality is commendable, but the reviewer suggests using a monitor arm to save space.

The 27-inch IPS panel with 2K resolution provides a sharp and clear display, making it suitable for gaming, video editing, and graphics design. The panel has minimal IPS glow but no backlight bleeding, providing a stress-free experience.

In terms of color gamut, the monitor supports 99% sRGB, making it suitable for graphics design and video color correction. The brightness of 350 nits is sufficient for indoor use. The gaming performance is excellent with its 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and support for both G-Sync and FreeSync Premium. The monitor effectively prevents screen tearing or stuttering.

Overall, the LG UltraGear 27GN800 is a highly recommended gaming monitor in its budget range, especially for those who prefer LG's reliable brand and service. For more detailed information, you can watch the detailed review video
