HDR will be terrible on all monitors in this range. I have the Dell 27 inch IPS monitor and leave HDR off becuase it looks better.
I bought 2 of these monitors last year. So far they have been great.
I don't game as much as I used too. But when I do, color looks good and
perform fine at 1440p. If you are a heavy gamer. I'm sure you will see the flaws more then me.
No complaints so far.
I have the Costco 32" version of this and as others have said, the HDR looks awful out of the box. You need to install the color profile on the support page to really make it work [lg.com] Mine looks fantastic after setting that up.

saw this yesterday, but rtings review said it's only okay. The Gigabyte M27Q go downs to $319 pretty often and it seems like that one is much better for 40 dollars more.

If this is the dell IPS 165hz I have it and I really like i I think I returned the LG for this. I prefer the design of the dell, hate the feet of the LG. I don't remember what else made me swap them.

I think dell actually makes better monitors than anything else.

I have this and it's a great price for a 2K 144hz monitor. I had a 4K monitor but so many games only run at 30fps at 4K that I found it wasn't entirely worth it. I was lowering the res most of the time to get more fps Since that monitor was 60hz I made the decision to go for more frames rather than higher res. I don't regret it a bit! Excellent monitor.

The Dell's panel is made by LG. Only difference is the Dell has LG's nano IPS panel and the one in the OP is a regular IPS.

Please note Display port always goes Deep sleep on monitor timeout. It sometimes freezes windows. Experience that on Nvidia video

You aren't getting decent HDR in this price range regardless of the model, panel, brand etc. The brightness isn't high enough so they'll all looked washed out. If you really want good HDR I would suggest HDR1000 or above to do a proper job. Last I looked a decent HDR 1440p monitor was like $550+ and most (if not all) of those in that price bracket are HDR600. The # simply correlates to brightness.

There are a few better (newer) monitors in this price range but this is still a very good monitor and good value if you're on a tight budget. If you really want quality HDR expect to pay 2x this price at least.
