Product Information

With an LG computer monitor you’ll discover cutting-edge display technology and slim designs, from our dazzling LED and LCD monitors, which offer state-of-the-art display and features. You’ll get a new outlook on life with monitors and other computer monitors from LG.

Overall adjustability is decent, the range of height adjustability is generous, so it should be great for most users' ergonomic setup, and this is achieved with less wobble than previous designs. There's also tilt and pivot support in case you want to use the monitor in a portrait orientation. It's also a much more substantial update to the display than last year's refreshed 27GN850, with LG showing the clear goal of retaking the performance throne in this class of monitor. The resolution is another critical aspect of a gaming monitor. The resolution is measured in pixels; the more pixels a monitor has, the sharper the image will be. A higher resolution results in a clearer and more detailed picture.The basic fundamentals are the same: this is a 27-inch 2560x1440 display using LG Nano IPS technology. Same 98% DCI-P3 gamut coverage, same adaptive sync support with G-Sync and AMD FreeSync. But there are three major additions that make this more than just a refresh.

I also quite like how easy it is to access the 27GP850's ports on the rear, where you'll find a DisplayPort, two HDMI connectors and a couple of USB ports. This complicates wall mounting somewhat - this display does have a VESA mount - but I feel the ease of access is worth it. The overall rear design is nice, and I'm glad LG hasn't changed it substantially from previous monitors. The next step is a full calibration, which we achieved using DisplayCAL. As expected, sRGB results are very strong, and for P3 it's also quite good aside from some very small problems right at the tip of the gamut where that last 2-4% isn't covered. First up we have performance in the Off mode, which is without overdrive. As expected we get virtually no overshoot, and we can see that native panel performance is around the 7.8ms mark on average. This is actually a very good result all things considered, but does fall short of what is required for a true 180 Hz refresh rate, so it might be time to enable overdrive. Now the ideal solution would have been to implement variable overdrive to switch between these settings depending on the refresh rate, but LG hasn't implemented that here. In a sense there are two optimal overdrive modes, rather than the ideal situation which is a single optimal setting.

Krase ih funkcije UltraWide™ 21:9, četvorostruki Screen Split, kompatibilnost sa Mac®-om, Dual Linkup i neverovatni QHD 1440p. I zakrivljeni i ravni UltraWide monitori su savršeno rešenje za dizajnere, fotografe, gejmere i druge stručnjake kojima je potrebno više prostora za velike ideje. IPS monitori: IPS računarske monitore odlikuju izuzetno uverljive boje, a smanjuju gubitak boje i doprinose održavanju doslednosti boja iz gotovo svakog ugla. LED pozadinsko osvetljenje omogućava prikaz najtamnijih nijansi crne, kao i punoću boje, stvarajući neverovatan kontrast i efekat nijansiranja. 4K monitori: Naši 4K i UHD Digital Cinema monitori sa rezolucijom 4096 x 2160 prikazuju oštre slike sa velikim brojem piksela na ekranu. Rezolucija 4K je više nego četvorostruko veća od standardne rezolucije 1920x1080 Full HD.skærme: Øg niveauet med LGs UltraFine-skærm, der kan prale af en imponerende 27-tommers skærm med 5120 x 2880 opløsning og 218 PPI, som giver dig mulighed for at opleve skønheden i en MacBook eller MacBook Pro på en stor 5K-skærm. Dertil følger også et utroligt P3-farvespektrum på 99%, så du kan redigere og nyde billeder i høj opløsning som aldrig før. Der er også en imponerende 21,5-tommer Mac-venlig 4K-version.

In this mode we really start to see the benefits of LG's Nano IPS technology and the additional tuning they've done with the new 27GP850. We get a response time average of 4.65ms which is fast, and that allows for 82% refresh rate compliance at 180Hz, impressive given our new and much stricter testing methods. Inverse ghosting has increased slightly but it's not noticeable in practice, and this leads to a great cumulative deviation result of 407. Based on our analysis, the Gigabyte 27" M27Q X and LG 27" 27GP850-B monitors both have a resolution of 2560 x 1440, which we found was excellent for gaming. Brightness is improved with the 27GP850 compared to the 27GL850, the new model does around 450 nits compared to 350 with the prior generation, so that's a solid improvement that will assist those in bright environments. Minimum brightness is outstanding, at below 30 nits, great for those that like a dim monitor for gaming at night. However I also think that's being a bit unfair to LG. Usually when I talk about displays not delivering a single overdrive mode experience, it's because each mode is unusable at a certain point in the refresh range. That could mean decent performance at 144Hz but severe inverse ghosting at 60Hz. That's not really the case with the 27GP850, and the differences between the Normal and Fast modes are small overall. I actually found it quite hard to decide which mode is better for adaptive sync gaming, ultimately I settled on the Fast mode but overall it's a case where buyers can choose to either prioritize low overshoot with the Normal mode, or speed with the Fast mode, and get a pretty good experience across the board.

See how we’re making life good.As with most tech specs, greater numbers typically demonstrate that it's better and it's not any different here as more candela per square metre, the radiance measurement unit, a monitor has, more vivid it is. Conceding that you're hunting for a desktop screen that is better than the most ss far as uncomplicated office responsibilities accompanied by Netflix consumption, simple photo editing and games that don't need immeasurably illuminated screens, LG's 27GP850-B might possibly be the product you're questing after. Calculated at 350 candela per square metre of luminance, it offers comfort for the majority of shoppers, although don't expect surprises if you seek an exceptional luminance experience. Do You Really Need A Monitor? Based on our analysis, the LG 27" 27GP850-B monitor has a 98% DCI-P3 color gamut, which we found was excellent for gaming. To compare this result to other monitors we can convert this result into Rec. 2020 coverage, with this color space being massive and much larger than P3. Here we can see a good result for the 27GP850, with about 70% Rec. 2020 coverage being similar to many other displays that prioritize wide P3 color gamuts. Based on our analysis, the LG 32" 32GP850-B and LG 27" 27GP850-B monitors both have a 98% DCI-P3 color gamut, which we found was excellent for gaming. Average grey to grey performance, measured across the refresh range, is also an interesting story. The inverse ghosting rate is higher than with the 27GL850, but it also provides a 30% faster response time on average. In general this makes it a bit faster on average than other current-gen fast IPS panels like those found in the MAG274QRF-QD, AW2721D and PG329Q.
