    Thanks, picked one up as a spare monitor.

    Wouldn't recommend it, personally. I got when it was onsale previously and it pales in comparison to the cheapy second hand monitors I already had. The screen's viewing angle is abysmal and colours look washed out.

    If it wasn't such a hassle I would've returned it, to be honest. The one monitor I've bought new is the only one I've regretted so far. :c

      thanks for the feedback, was gonna pull the trigger but this and a couple other reviews ive just read dont really recommend it

      • ln28909 on 05/06/2020 - 16:01

        I think pale here is referring to the brightness of the screen as its brightness is only 250 nits. However, I have a monitor with a similar brightness (Samsung LC27F390) and it is still good to use in a well-lit room for office works. Not too sure about the viewing angles since IPS screen is generally very good in that aspects

        • Viper8 on 05/06/2020 - 16:57

          Viewing angles vary greatly, even between IPS panels from the same company.
          I have an older U-series Dell monitor and a newer P-series, both business-grade IPS monitors, and despite being older, the U-series definitely has better viewing angles. You don't notice it yourself even when using 2, but if you were to say sit besides me or stand up behind me then it does becomes quite noticeable. Not an issue really for home use, but I've seen cheaper non-business grade monitors on laptops which have pretty horrid viewing angles.

          • nfr on 05/06/2020 - 19:40

            @Viper8: IPS panels used to all have great viewing angles. I guess they found ways to cut cost.

            • Viper8 on 06/06/2020 - 00:31

              @nfr: They still do. It's all relative. When you're coming from Dell Ultrasharps everything else is sub-par. Even cheap IPS panels still blow the vast majority of TN's out of the water.

      • Selenium on 05/06/2020 - 16:06

        No worries. The missus uses it now with no issues, but she wears coke-bottle-glasses anyway so it all looks the same to her!

        I dunno man mine (this exact model) is perfectly fine. Out of the box it isn't perfect, but after some tinkering with the settings it's beautiful. I recommend you try and see a demo though because maybe my eyes are untrained.

    • FireRunner on 05/06/2020 - 16:28

      Interesting, you'd think an IPS would have better viewing angles and vivid colour than presumably TN cheapy 2nd hand monitors

      • Selenium on 05/06/2020 - 16:29

        Exactly my thoughts when I bought it. Sadly not the case.

    • Void on 05/06/2020 - 16:41

      You must mistaken the model number, this model is the best for this price and it's panel don't have the problem you described. Your feed back is just misleading people here.

        It's not inconceivable. I purchased two of the same model BenQ monitors from Amazon with the intention of using them side by side, but one displayed completely different colour and contrast to the other, even with adjustments. Ended up sending it back and sticking to just one (the much better looking one, obviously).

    • theguwithnoname on 05/06/2020 - 23:27

      I own this exact monitor model, and honestly, I haven't noticed any of those two issues. For a lower end IPS panel, the viewing angles are fine, miles better than any TN panel I've encountered. The colours are really good, just like most IPS panels.

      The only gripes I had about this display is the lack of a height-adjustable stand and a response time that is slightly on the higher end.

      Perhaps you got a defective model?

    • yama131 on 18/06/2020 - 11:09

      Hmm.. this is the exact same comment as the last time this was posted.
      Are you with HP or something?

      • Selenium on 18/06/2020 - 16:31

        I wish. My cheapie, used HP monitors I got off Gumtree are still my faves actually.

        But I concede maybe I was just unlucky with this LG. But it's enough for me not to try them again. (like how I feel about TCL. Never touching one of those bloody things again.)

        Didn't know this had gone up before and I'd posted on it, I'll resist the urge in the future, heh. My bad.

  • elusivesid on 05/06/2020 - 15:56

  • vash5 on 05/06/2020 - 15:59

    Just snagged x2 27in Philips 27in from OW @ $227 each. its $75 more than this deal but you get 12% more screen realestate.

        True true.. but the bezels on this thing are sinful if your planning to run them as dual screen.

    • Phoebus on 05/06/2020 - 17:00

      The, "screen realestate" is the same at 1920x1080

      • vash5 on 05/06/2020 - 17:03
        -2

        Disagree.. Resolution and realestate are not the same thing.

        You could have a 50" LCD monitor with a 1920x1080 and a 20" and the objects on screen will appear smaller in 20".

        • wildstone on 05/06/2020 - 17:12
          +10

          'Real estate' loosely means how much stuff you could fit on the screen, and it is the resolution in this case. You could fit as much stuffs on the 27" as well as 24", or even your 5" phone that is of Full HD resolution.

          The difference is just the size, which is obviously one is 27" and one is 24". So it is 12% bigger, but not 12% more screen realestate.

          • vash5 on 05/06/2020 - 17:30

            @wildstone: Hmm interesting.. Where are you getting your screen real estate definition from? If you have a link that would be great. I was taught screen real estate refers to the screen physical size and is done so because the term real estate also refers to a physical property.

            Your are 100% spot on about resolution and I agree with you.

            I recent had the displeasure of needing to use a 13.5" Microsoft surface pro 3 for work with a screen res of 2256 x 1504 (native). Sounds great on paper but unless in practice. Everything was stupid small on a 13" display and The laptop comes standard with 150% scaling turned on to make it usable. So while it has more real estate (in your definition) its unless.

            edit: Not pro version actually

            • Diji1 on 05/06/2020 - 17:53

              @vash5:

              I was taught screen real estate

              Wierd considering it's just a phrase some people use.

            • caprimulgus on 05/06/2020 - 18:04

              @vash5:

              I was taught screen real estate refers to the screen physical size and is done so because the term real estate also refers to a physical property.

              Real estate refers to a physical property in property.

              Real estate refers to a virtual property in regard to virtual space (ie. desktop).

              I think you'll find the term is "desktop real estate". Hence it is the virtual space (resolution) on your virtual desktop.

              Sorry, but what you were taught is wrong.

          • Diji1 on 05/06/2020 - 17:52

            @wildstone:

            So it is 12% bigger

            It's not even 12% bigger, it's a much higher percentage than that if you measure it by area.

          • pinkybrain on 05/06/2020 - 17:54
            +1

            @wildstone: well there are arguments about how usable is it to fit the same number of windows on a smaller screen versus a bigger screen..

            like you can fit 3 documents on 20 inch like on a 24 or 28 inch, but the text would be smaller and not as usable..

            real estate - how much stuff you can fit on a screen is meaningless..
            cos you can fit as much windows as you want on any size screen…
            the point is how usable or viewable are those windows…

    • Viper8 on 05/06/2020 - 17:03
      1. You have 0% more screen real-estate. Its the same resolution. You cannot view anymore content on the screen than say this posts 24" FHD monitor, or even a 15.6" FHD laptop screen. All you're doing is making the already clearly visible pixels even larger and chunkier. Unless you have poor eyesight there is zero advantage unfortunately. At 27" most people are looking for 2560x1440 AKA QHD which nets you 77% more screen realestate. I have 2 of these for work and the difference is huge.
      2. Even if we calculate real-estate on screen area instead of resolution, the 27" has 27% more area, not 12% (its 12.5% wider AND taller).
      • vash5 on 05/06/2020 - 17:08

        (its 12.5% wider AND taller)

        True dat.. Cheers

        Look up screen size in relation to distance as its all relative.

        lol so my daughters doll house has the same real estate as my house cos all the furniture s scaled down lol. the term as generally sed refers to the size by area. but lets face it. its just lingo and im sure ppl can attatch different meaning to a slang term.

    I got this for that price last year. Freaking great monitor! 75hz is still so much better than 60, viewing angles are good, colors are good and the pixel overdrive doesn't look like vomit until you set it to the highest. It's creaky af though, but only when touched and the stand is quite wobbly. 9/10 panel 6/10 build.

      • f38r1 on 05/06/2020 - 21:07

        It's at the bottom of the screen. There's a nub to access the settings.

        • Void on 05/06/2020 - 21:12

          It was a joke. TrackPoint is patented by Lenovo AFAIK so it is the same thing as the Thinkpads. Yeah I'm aware of the nub as I've owned this monitor for about 6 months now.

    Seems like a good price. I was looking at this yesterday online, but some reviews put me off. If I saw it for $149 I might have pulled the trigger. Here's another option to think about, which I ended up buying: AOC I2490VXQ - $189 delivered from Wireless 1 eBay

    Similar specs to the LG, but it has:
    * blue-light settings,
    * a DisplayPort port,
    * sRGB at 100% (according to one website),
    * flicker-free technology (may be a gimmick),
    * speakers (probably not great), and
    * extremely thin bezels on 3 sides.

    Can't comment on it yet as it's due to arrive in about a week.

  • f38r1 on 05/06/2020 - 21:11

    It seems to me that monitors last forever which makes it really difficult to get approval from the wife to replace mine. I have had 1 monitor for 16 years, it was one of the the first 24 inch on the market and cost me $1k, it won't effing die and weighs a bloody tonne compared to new ones. It can double as a light weight to warm up for bench and shoulder press, truly versatile.
