About this deal

Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases. It’s a compact monitor by today’s standards, so it’s easy to move around or bring along with you to LAN parties. It only weighs 8.6 pounds so you won’t need assistance while setting it up on your desk. It only needs 7.1 inches of depth, unlike the other UltraGear monitors which have oversized stands. There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used. First impressions are pretty underwhelming to be honest, while the 24GN600-B looks very nice, there are multiple areas that are disappointing. Firstly the only USB port is for servicing should the monitor ever need it, the orientation of the HDMI and DP ports hamper your ability to have the monitor at the angle you would like as well as hampering getting the monitor as flush to the wall as possible if you are wall mounting or have a desk mounted arm, and there are no VESA screws included either which there really should be as VESA screws can and do vary in length a bit.

Thankfully one real redeeming quality of the 24GN600 is the image quality of the IPS panel I’ve used quite a few IPS panels and can safely say this panel is certainly one of the better ones you will not be disappointed by the image quality here. The refresh rate of 144Hz is a little disappointing it would have been nice if the monitor were 165Hz but the overall quality of the IPS panel here makes up for this slight shortcoming. As previously said, this monitor includes FreeSync Premium technology, which is really impressive given its price. This technology is beneficial to gamers since it reduces tearing during your gameplay. Information about the minimum amount of time, in which the pixels change from one color to another. Very often the manufacturer provides the response time for transition from grey-to-grey (G2G). Taking everything into consideration, it can be concluded that this monitor does offer some gaming-friendly features. However, it falls into the budget gaming category for highly competitive players, meaning those seeking advanced features for professional-level competition may need to invest in a higher-tier monitor such as the Dell S2522HG.

With this in mind, LG opted to go above the norm for the LG 24GN600-B, implementing a brightness ratio of 300 nits, which may not seem like much more than the standard 250, but it is a significant improvement. The pixel pitch shows the distance from the centers of two neighboring pixels. In displays, which have a native resolution (the TFT ones, for example), the pixel pitch depends on the resolution and the size of the screen. The static contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce simultaneously, for example, within one and the same frame/scene.

Even so, having a high brightness ratio and being able to see the images correctly even in a bright room is always preferable. Manufacturers frequently exploit the enhanced viewing angles of IPS panels as an excuse to decrease the brightness ratio, which will have a smaller impact on the IPS screen.

Finally, let’s see what this monitor’s IPS panel has to offer in terms of image quality and color accuracy. This monitor also saves time and effort for those who want to mount it on the wall, thanks to its VESA compatibility, which greatly simplifies the procedure. We tested the 27 inch LG UltraGear 27GN650-B. The 24 inch LG 24GN650-Bhas mostly the same specifications, but it has a lower advertised peak brightness and doesn't support a wide color gamut. The LG 24GN600-B and LG 27GN600-B are also very similar, but they have a tilt-only stand.There are manymonitors with various configurations in LG's UltraGear lineup, some of which you can see in the table below. Model Even so, this one has a somewhat lower delta number than the other casual displays we’ve looked into. You may, however, calibrate it to improve the results. It features an 8-bit color pattern with an sRGB color gamut of 99 percent, which is about normal for low-cost monitors.
