Greater than one weekQuite pleased with this monitor so far, it is actually overkill for my needs. I particularly like the ability to put a cross-hair in the middle of the screen as it helps with some games.

> 3 dayI have been enjoying my new monitor. I bought this monitor to up my gaming station to at least the 2k range. I did not want to dive into the 4k monitors quickly start around $500. This monitor fits my needs as a mid-range quality monitor that is great for every day use between teleworking and gaming. So I would suggest this monitor to anybody who wants a quality monitor without having to break the bank.

> 3 dayI got this as Id never had more than a 60 FPS monitor, but didnt want to compromise on 1440p quality. This monitor definitely delivers on both and at quite the price point makes it a steal. I would definitely recommend this monitor to others.

> 3 dayUpdate: I discovered the annoying tone is controllable and can be turned off. The monitor has a speaker that frequently sends out an annoying audible tone to signal something, but not sure what, and no way to turn off the sound. In fact, there are no sound controls at all.

Greater than one weekA very good monitor for all your UHD 1440p needs. Use it in a dark room? Turn down the brightness and youre good to go, but for your own sake do not switch modes while viewing in the dark unless you wish to unleash the power of the sun on your eyes. Youre better off saving that power for when you are fighting off the glare of the actual sun if for some reason your monitor faces the window. Other than that the colors are vibrant and its very responsive, youre definitely getting your moneys worth. Its worth noting that although the pixels are significantly smaller than any 1080p monitor, you can still see jagged edges on tiny images such as emotes but it is still a big improvement. This of course cant really be mitigated without the use of a 4k monitor. One more thing, its nice that this monitor turns itself on and off with your PC.

Its well worth it for the price.

Good enough.
> 3 dayOverall, this is a fantastic 1440p gaming-oriented monitor. The colors are crisp and the response times are silky smooth. But theres a few disappointments I have with this monitor that shouldnt be a thing at this price point: -The ips glow is particularly bad on this monitor. Normally Id be fine with a drawback that leagues all IPS display but this one is noticeably bad. On the bottom left corner, theres a noticeable orange-ish glow (the tint I suspect, is caused by the matte coating) thats notable even on non-dark content thats somewhat distraction. Apparently, this is a side-effect of LGs nano IPS display tech, but I not direct reference for it. If youre particularly bother by IPS glow I think this one issue might be enough for you look elsewhere. -The stand is terrible. Im use to monitor stands that only have tilt, but this one just feels overly cheap for the price point. You can actually force the monitor wobble side to side and left to right a bit, like the monitor connection is loose or something -This might be a bit of a nitpick, but why include a USB port if its non-useable by the user? At least give people the option to update the firmware or something.
