    The monitor specs are quite clear and fortunately there are many good YouTube videos unboxing and demonstrating what it’s capable of doing so I don’t speak about them. I didn’t purchase this monitor for gaming even though I did played some high FPS and HDR games on it just to test it out. It does exactly what it says and that’s why I gave it five stars. The HDR capabilities are quite bold and practical. It works perfectly with windows 11 while the display is set to always HDR. The refresh rate works like a charm and the picture quality is close to fantastic which is why I use it (video editing & designing). The contrast is that high that it really bothers my eyes if I lock at the white screen display even though it’s only a HDR 400 certified.If you use the monitor to watch HDR streaming contract, be happy that HDR would be automatically picked by the streamers as the default. I bought a VESA desk mount but I didn’t see any use for that because the monitor has a very practical and pretty stand. For the settings out of the box, you might need to spend some time to get the monitor screen and other functionalities based on your preferences but it’s super initiative and easy with user friendly menus adjustable by one single small joystick located at the back side of the screen. This monitor is not the best of it’s class but for the price and such quality, it’s definitely worth buying even more so if you happen to buy it while it’s discounted (as I did, thx to Amazon). Delivery of the monitor was nice and fast as usual (someone knocked the door and handed to me after singneture). I haven’t checked the color accuracy because I was super happy with the outcome I set it up and compare to my reference monitor at work (Benq), the picture quality is superb (the Benq is a 4K monitor and almost two times more expensive).Would I recommend this monitor? Definitely yes, if you can afford it.

    You have to tweak this badboy, some panels come with a yellow veil that you need to remove via Nvidia control panel, I will put my settings on the photos as reference (not all panels are the same is all trial and error). That being said…This monitor is a real good deal with the new 600$ price. Colors are incredible, bright is great for an IPS, contrast is tolerable on bright rooms, bad on dark rooms (greyish blacks), the sharpness is impressive, coming from a 27″ QHD this one feels even sharper and more detailed, maybe because is less tall so the pixels are more compressed, who knows.Now the BIG DEAL about this monitor: RESPONSE TIME AND PIXEL REFRESH, this monitor is a league of it’s own, almost imperceptible motion blur (really, I CAN’T see it) and the input lag is very low, good for competitive games.now the CONS:* no Pip, no Pbp !! I mean, come on LG, 29 old ultrawide had that feature, why this ones cant ?* no speakers* poor contrast ratio, bad black handling on dark rooms* the stand is HUGE, plus the height doesn’t go too low, just mid height and very tall height.* it could had USB C or KVM for the premium price.* Needs calibration if you have the yellow tint vail (most monitor have it)Still, this is a great monitor, my next monitor will be an ultrawide OLED for sure, probably LG as well.PS: check my captures, those are my settings for perfect tone, removing the yellow tint and giving a warmish not too cold colors. You can play with it, or check RTINGS.com calibration for more references.

    I have the non IPS (VA) version. I got it on sale during Christmas sales, so it’s hard to beat this monitor for the price. I have not starting gaming on it yet, but good colors and contrast and great real estate. Does not seem to cause me any eye strain. No dead pixels. For a widescreen 1440p monitor and for the price I paid, I’m pretty happy with it.That said, there is a strange cutoff right at the edge of the bottom bezel. Unless you are looking at it straight on or beneath, the last ~2 rows of pixels are diminished. And since it is at the bottom of the screen and my eyes are always above the bottom edge, I notice it. It’s not something that bothers me really, but it’s there and it shouldn’t be.The speakers are fine for what they are. Bass tone drops off heavily below 110hz, which I would expect. Pretty good spacial stereo for built-in monitor speakers. It works fine for general use and meetings. If you need more you would want external speakers or a good headset.

    I bought an LG 34GP83A-B. It works as advertised (with the exception of the setup).I had a Dell 34″ UltraSharp wide-screen monitor that has been great for 5+ years. I needed a second wide-screen monitor. I chose this one based on the great price at the time I bought it and based on feedback from friends using the same brand.Pros: The picture quality is at least as good as the Dell I had, if not better. Very pleased with the picture quality. The monitor performance is great. I don’t use demanding gaming apps that would require me to take advantage of the overclocking to 160Hz. 144Hz is sufficient for me. I have not tried to use the screen splitting option yet since I have my own pre-existing app that manages it for me. I’ll follow up later and update this post after I use the split-screen option from LG.Pro/Con… The pro is it has cable management. It is on the back of the monitor stand if you want to use it. The con is it is too small and weak to support all the cables. I didn’t use it for my setup.Setup: I had it as a con, but changed it since the main issue was not the fault of the monitor or LG. The biggest aggravation was the setup. I have two monitors connected to this PC. A 27″ BenQ and this one (LG). When I first connected it, both monitors showed as separate monitors. The resolution on the LG defaulted to 1920×1080. I updated my drivers and rebooted. No change. This time my system literally saw both monitors as 1 monitor. Weird. I downloaded the latest driver for my Windows version from the LG website (34GP83A-B.AUS). Attempted to install it and received an error this was not an LG driver. Downloaded again to see if perhaps it was a file issue. Same error. Upgraded my graphics card driver (Nvidia GeForce 3090), rebooted, and the monitor worked. A PCI-to-PCI driver upgrade appeared to fix the issue. However, LG needs to fix its driver or provide a different one.An additional minor issue for me is the monitor stand. The base “feet” are a little flimsy and stretch out in front of the monitor in a “V” shape. Takes up to much desktop space. I am able to work around it, but would advise others to keep this in mind when planning your desk layout.Received a response: “The LG 34″ UltraGear Curved WQHD Nano IPS 1ms 144HZ HDR 400 Monitor with G-SYNC Compatibility, Model # 34GP83A-B is a Plug and Play Monitor. Plug and Play is a feature that allows you to add a device to your computer without having to reconfigure anything or install any manual drivers…^Ivan” — The comment is true. If my PCI-to-PCI adapter was already current, then the monitor would have worked as a plug-and-play. At the time, I didn’t know this was the issue initially and struggled with the LG driver for this monitor. My recommendation is still to resolve the LG drive incompatibility issue.2/11/2023Additional comments after some time using the monitor.Input Selection: I saw some complaints about the button-style controller that allows you to change monitor settings, including the input source. It did take a minute to get used to it, but it works fine for me, and have no issues with it.Work laptop: I use the DP cable for my personal PC and the HDMI with my work laptop. My work laptop (HP ZBook) has a port replicator that only uses DP connections. I use an HDMI hub to plug all my HDMI connections from my monitors with a DP connection back into the port replicator. This did not work with the LG monitor. Received the same odd errors I had above with my PC and, if I reboot, none of the screens (including the laptop would work). I bought a DP to HDMI converter, bypassed my HDMI hub, and plugged my LG monitor HDMI connection directly into the port replicator using the DP to HDMI converter. Everything works as normal now. The only minor issue is when my laptop goes to sleep and I wake it up, I have a 50/50 chance of the LG monitor not coming on. I disconnect the port replicator from my laptop and plug it back in. LG monitor wakes up. It’s a minor workaround. This does seem to coincide with other comments about sleep issues with the monitor. I hope this helps others who are trying to use this for work.I’m using Nvidia RTX Desktop Manager to configure split screens on my LG monitor without any issues.I plan on using this for a few months and then will update my post later. So far the monitor has been great!

    Received my monitor on 2/10/23, it was sold by Amazon.com Services LLC and shipped from Amazon’s warehouse via Prime Shipping, not a 3rd party.Amazon has reviews for this monitor mixed in with one of a different model # so pay attention to what you’re reading. Also, there’s at least a dozen reviews here mentioning dead or stuck pixels, let me remind you that most of the time, people who receive a good working product do not take the time to write a review, but people who receive a bad product usually will. That will skew the written reviews of a product to make it appear bad.After I received this monitor, I set it up without even peeling the protective plastic off the trim, and ran Dead Pixel Check for probably a good half hour. I found no dead or stuck pixels anywhere. The much maligned “IPS Glow” or uneven backlight that people complain about is practically nonexistent on this panel. Yes you can see some, ever so slightly in the corners, but this is the 4th IPS display that I’ve bought over the years(I’m 53) and honestly it’s the best I’ve seen.Something else worth mentioning, this monitor has what may look to you like a screen protector that should be peeled off, don’t try doing that, it’s an anti-glare sheet put on from the factory to give the display a matt finish.If I end up having future problems with this monitor, be it dead/stuck pixels or backlight problems, I will update this review. So far though it’s the best non-OLED display I’ve seen.

    Phenomenal monitor. Having included speakers made the decision easy for me. And the speakers are sufficient for gaming in a small room. If your sitting a little ways away I would still want a set of secondary speakers but everything else is exactly how described or even better than you see.. very happy. Good screen for in between 1080 and 4k. If you are looking to upgrade but not for the price of a good 4k monitor this is a a great alternative. Everything is amazing but be ready you can’t hit the 120hz on a PS5 because 5he PS5 does not support display port input so under HDMI you can only achieve 60 hz and their are no adapters that go from display port to hdmi that can make a standard HDMI cord achieve 120hz. The only thing I wish I could change is that.
