Community Reviews

LG's 27 inch UltraGear tandem OLED stands out for gaming, with deep blacks, no backlight bleed, strong colors, and sharp image quality. The matte coating is a plus for setups that cannot handle glossy screens, and the 280 hertz panel plus OLED contrast make it appealing for HDR play. The main drawbacks are dark scene banding, fuzzy text and weaker web browsing compared with IPS, along with flimsy controls and unreliable LG software. Order cancellations and price error messages also clouded the deal, making it a strong display with some real caveats.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes, cancellations were reported on both pickup and shipping orders, often with messages like promotion error or price mistake. Some buyers also received follow-up offers at $550 after the $400 order was canceled.

    SmilingFuel4943Panikkcpom1enraginangel

  • It uses a matte coating. That helps in bright rooms and fixed desk setups, while a newer glossy-coated model exists for buyers who prefer more vivid color pop.

    TheFrugalOnePanikkPanikk

  • It is reported to be excellent in games, with strong blacks and HDR, but web browsing and text can look worse than an IPS panel. Mixed-use productivity can also bring fuzzy text and anti-burn-in annoyances.

    LoadedbeermanVelocityRaptorshekelz4dealz

  • Some units are reported to show banding in dark scenes and smeared dark-gray areas that can look black in certain settings. That can make dark scenes less clean than expected from an OLED panel.

    jsoarer23klaiiiishekelz4dealz

  • The LG Switch software is reported to be unstable, including Windows crashes when left running in the background. The menu joystick/button is also described as flimsy and likely to wear with use.

Got this monitor when it came out, works great nothing to complain about. Coming from an IPS the true blacks are very noticeable, no more backlight bleed. Paid 600 for mine. If I had the desk space I'd buy a second one.

Smoking deal for current year panel tech. If the specs fit your requirements, you probably won't find any better in the near future.

I purchased one open box from Best Buy not too long ago. Was my first OLED & coming from using a big old tv, I was wowed by the colors & sharpness. Build quality was solid. There was an issue that I did notice when using it. I noticed that banding (?) issue at times during dark scenes which for the price I paid was a bit of a let down. Not sure if this is an issue with all monitors using this newer tech or just the one I had.
I also wish it had a glossy screen, as I returned this one & purchased a monitor with glossy & to me there's a positive difference in colors.
At $400 for a 4th gen WOLED, that's a fantastic price, I'd consider getting it.

Glad to get something that has a matte coating. I can't move my windows and I refuse to move my desk to try to make glossy work.

I have this monitor and it's great. I bought it for $650 last November. I'm a little surprised it is going down in price so fast. I haven't encountered any issues with it. It works great so far. I'm buying a 2nd to have matching monitors.

Yeah I don't get what audience is being served by a review that just disagrees with the fundamental use case and uses that to say negative statements about the product. Some people need a matte coating. This monitor is often cited elsewhere as one of the best in its class for that need, but you wouldn't get that impression by that video.
