    I picked this monitor up for my playstation 5. The picture quality is good and the build quality was fair for the price point.. overall I was happy with the purchase.. The monitor lasted 6 months and left me with a black screen. LG policy is for me to ship back to them for a repair, I have no option to ship back to Amazon for replacement.. either way, Im going to be out a monitor for a while.. Maybe I just had bad luck or maybe the monitor line has an issue.. I guess the reviews will decide.

    Monitor died after 5 months of use. It powers on but the screen remains blank, it wont even show its own menus. Any computer it plugs into will freeze up and enter a boot loop until unplugged from the monitor. The monitor is well within the manufacturer warranty but the process is so deliberately obtuse that it may as well not exist. This is my last LG product for sure. Update: It took a few weeks of having to repeatedly ask if a shipping label had been sent before a CSR was able to confirm that one would be arriving. It did eventually show up and I was able to box up the monitor and drop it off with fedex at no charge to myself. Other than the tracking number I was given for the shipment to the repair facility I was not given any additional information at any point about the repair status. A few weeks later a new fedex tracking number was sent to me for the return trip; it arrived about a week later. It does appear to be working as expected again. We will see how long it lasts. My experience with the repair process seems about average, other reviewers have described both much faster/smoother experiences and much longer/difficult ones. In any case I am happy to have a working monitor or again and despite the inconvenience I am relatively pleased with the whole interaction.

    In the quest for finding the most value for money gaming monitor, prior to buying LG 27GL83A-B I own a Dell S2417DG (1440p with GSYNC) , though the specs are great with this Dell monitor for the price its offered , there were major banding issues with the TN Panel , had to do custom calibration and gamma adjustments to get a picture quality anywhere near to acceptable. With all my other monitors being IPS panel with high color accuracy I just couldnt get satisfied with Dell . As I started searching the market again, every IPS 1440P gaming monitor with high response rate was way beyond my budget for casual gaming. And now LG brought this gem of a IPS gaming monitor to the market for a reasonable price. It doesnt have G-SYNC hardware module like the Dell S417DG since its adaptive sync driven , but really who cares? G-SYNC still works flawlessly with Nvidia GPU , Runs at 144 Hz , great blacks, decent factory calibration and color accuracy and I highly recommend to keep the response rate at factory default . At 144hz the default response time works just fine . To top it LG panel and overall product quality is top notch - no dead pixels, no noticeable bleed, no flimsy plastics. Its a no brainer buy for the price . Go for it and you wouldnt regret. 1440P is the current sweet spot for gaming monitors, unless you own a crazy powerful rig on SLI to run games at 4k. I bet you still wont be able to max out anywhere near to 144hz especially if you are into FPS. Cons: Its hard to be giving any negative for this product considering the price, however few small things 1) You cannot swivel the screen 2) Switching to Faster Response rate causes negative ghosting (Only if you look for it) 3) Doesnt have the RGB light circle behind the monitor like other LG Gaming monitors , instead its a Red Circle strip. Now My Gaming PC (Red and Black theme) and this Monitor goes so well together, I dont even know if thats a Con. Mostly a personal preference or choice.

    So far impressed with this display, just upgraded from 1080p and 24” to 1440p 27” and im shocked how big of a difference it has made in my experience. If you have a smaller or older monitor and want to try a QHD, this thing is a great starting point and a bountiful upgrade for the price. Also would like to note it was insanely easy to set up, to the point where I pulled out some screws and realized i didnt even have to. Comes with hdmi and DP cables, and the heigh adjustment is as easy as grabbing it and moving it where you want. Love it, made my desk a battle station.

    Pros: -144hz -Minimal backlight bleed -OSD easy to use -Comes with display port cable and HDMI cable -extremely easy to setup -stock calibration is decent, only had to modify a few settings. Cons: The stand sits too high at lowest adjustment, so I had to modify my desk to clear. Highest point is roughly 18 3/4 to clear. My calibration on Game 1 Preset: Brightness - 25 Contrast - 70 Sharpness - Default 50 Gamma - mode 2 Color temp - Custom - R58/G49/B48 Adaptive sync - On Black Stabilizer - Default 50 Response time - Fast Aspect ratio - Full Wide Energy Saving - Off Standby - Off All settings at aspect ratio and below optional, I opted to turn the energy stuff off. I Absolutely love this monitor. I first was gonna get the 850 but its been running low on stock for a while now, settled with this variant instead. Just setup today and played a bit of Rainbow six at 144hz and it was perfect. This is the sRGB version of the 27GL850, it also registers on my computer as the 27GL850. If youre stressed for cash and wanna save a bit of money, this one will do fine. Colors look great without the wide range color gamut, and from reading it should mainly be applicable to HDR gaming/photo editing anyways, which the 850 doesnt do a great job at as is. I dont plan on using HDR either. All in all this thing came perfect with no bad pixels, and the backlight looks good. This monitor should have a slightly higher contrast ratio than the 850 (1000:1 while the 850 is around 800:1). I highly recommend this as a viable cheaper option to the 850. If purchasing this with limited vertical space look for a gas shock vesa mount to lower it further or modify your desk for 18 3/4 of vertical clearance. The only difference according to specs is the nano ips panel on the 850, which seems like it has more to do with the color range.

    I have been using this product for well over a year so the review is much needed. I can start by saying this monitor is def made for gaming with a vibrant and colorful picture right out of the box. The ghosting on this monitor is very minimal but response time should stay on fast and not the fastest option. 144hz 2k monitor at this price for gaming is truly a steal, enjoy it while you can.

    This monitor absolutely does not play well with Windows 11. Deep Sleep Mode cannot be disabled and it takes several seconds to wake from sleep, Windows sometimes takes longer to respond. Worse is that when waking from deep sleep mode windows will randomly not maximize fully and a 1/2 of the desktop above the taskbar is cut off. This has something to do with windows scaling as changing the DPI back and forth resets to normal or turning the monitor off and on also resets it. However I believe this problem would not come up if there was an option to turn off deep sleep. And that there is no USB port means the monitor cannot be updated, not that LG would at this point, as they havent with the 850 model. Im not sure how these issues are not discussed in all of the glowing reviews on numerous tech sites as it is pretty well known that deep sleep in general is an issue with these monitors. And that has been fixed with the latest LG 4K model.

    Unsustainable packaging. This thing comes in a massive amount of styrofoam. I would have thought LG would spring the extra few dollars for a product at this price point, to use a responsible cardboard packaging option.
