I think 27" is best for QHD and 32" better for 4k.
Bought this back on July 13, 2022, when it was on sale. At this price point you are getting a really solid monitor for gaming and work.
The X32 is only $20 more at BB right now.

Thoughts about size? Is 27" a sweet spot. Been looking for 32, but every good monitor in my price range is 27"

One thing to note is that this model uses both LG and BoE panels that have some different behaviors. I've owned both and they are functionally the same as far as I can tell aside from the default colors being a bit different (LG blueish and BoE yellowish) that can both be changed closer to standard in custom RGB.

So I see there are multiple deals for this size...there is the Lenovo 28" now and then the LG 27" from best buy. All appear to be QHD. All have HDMI and DP plus vesa. So who is the winner? I am thinking of 2. I am leaning toward LG from BB die to open box pricing

have dual 32 right now and wouldn't recommend it for gaming/entertainment. They take up a lot of space and your eyes/mouse have to travel a lot.

32" with QHD is going to be about 92 ppi
27" with QHD is going to be about 109 ppi

i'd say you would notice the difference if you are doing office work, if you are only gaming or watching netflix it probably won't matter

Bought this last year Treasure Truck deal, was worth it. Great monitor, no complaints. Gaming nice on this with the 165hz. Display nice. No noticeable backlight bleed. HDR capable. Bright. 27" more than enough IMO, monitor is very big. Text is clear. Base stand is very adjustable and decent height adjustment, to the point where I don't feel the need for an arm. It was worth for $180, I would pay $210 unless I can find a similar monitor with GSYNC, otherwise it checks all boxes

I got two of these for work because I couldn't stand the 1080p ones, and they're great. Seems like they lean a tiny bit warm compared to my slightly higher end Lenovo and LG monitors but I haven't bothered messing with the RGB settings.

For me, 27" is the sweet spot for a dual monitor setup. I might go 32" if I was only using one.

Agree on all points. Using two of these in my home office and love. Only have room for one monitor in my workplace office and have a 32" there.
