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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Dang same price as an usual oled but TANDEM!? increases lifespan with multiple layer at same brightness as other oleds so they can make it brighter.

The IPS is not worth $300...there are cheaper and even a Dell 1080p 240hz IPS $100.
Example: $200 27" Gigabyte M27Q3 2560x1440 300Hz 1ms IPS Monitor

How is OLED for everyday use compared to antiglare IPS? i study and read other than gaming
While i don't have this specific monitor, i did pick up a new gen oled recently. I would break down the use case like this:
Gaming: highly recommend. HDR on if you can.
Mixed use: Iffy. Text CAN appear a lil fuzzy, anti burnin in features can get annoying during work/productivity sessions. Gaming will still look good.
Zero gaming: I wouldn't bother. A good ips or va would be a better move.
Note: i have not tried watching any video, no idea what the experience is like there.

im thinking of selling my Samsung odyssey neo g8 for this. Hate how bulky that is and would prefer a non curve. Not sure how id feel going back to 27" though.

Another thing about this monitor is that they somehow chose to sacrifice dark grey area and smear them in black in several settings, so it might not look good in dark scenes. I tried to find the graph on rtings and just realized there is a paywall now. Sad aftermath in AI era.

Mods keep removing replies to this but this guy is a total charlatan. I get it if you don't want a matte coating but this guy is not a credible reviewer. You can Google around if you don't believe me. SD mods are trash.

Yeah, I'd say that's a pretty killer deal. I overpaid a little for Black Friday 🤷

Had this monitor and returned it. It's geat in game, not great out of game. Web browsing and text look worst than a IPS panel and there is banding on dark screens. The reality is tandem oled doesn't feel like a finished product, sticking with IPS for now. Also the LG switch software is trash and the menu button feels like it will break after a good amount of use. Much rather get the Rog or MSI.

Thanks, this was helpful. Also, I agree with the menu "joystick" feeling flimsy. I started using the LG software to control the monitor, but that crappy software crashes Windows from time to time when running in the background, so I have to remember to exit out of it after making any changes.

This was bummer, LG cancelled the order saying promotion error. Does it happened to any one else?
