I'm just curious why are you getting annoyed at something you don't know? If you don't know the answer you could have easily skipped the post. You're also on the internet you could have looked it up instead of being pissy over it.
If you don't know what VRR is, then you don't have the answer to my question 😒
Considering the context is gaming (XBox), VRR would stand for variable refresh rate.

Some more notes: this may be a better alternative for PS5 users than the Dell S2721DGF I recently posted since this monitor will downscale 4K to 1440p

As far as differences from the LG GL850/GN850, seems this one has no height adjustment in the stand but if you're using a VESA mount, it's irrelevant.

There was also mention in the BuyDig thread from last week (see here: https://slickdeals.net/f/14885215-27-lg-ultragear-qhd-ips-144hz-1ms-g-sync-monitor-xbox-wireless-controller-347-free-shipping?utm_source=iphone_app&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=external%20share ) that this model doesn't use an LG panel, (see also this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors..._27gn800b/ as well as this post:https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors..._which_is/)but perhaps someone can speak to what that actually means as far as quality.

Rtings only released their review of this a few days ago: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/re...b#page-top

VRR?

Variable Radish Ripening?

Visine Redness Removal?

Venereal Rash Relapse?

And ordered!

Been waiting on an IPS panel gaming monitor under $300. Was about to pull the trigger on that Dell deal since I had the $100 amex offer but I really didn't want to spend that extra $100 to get $100 off.
