Great monitor for a great price
I got this monitor for $850 plus tax (on sale) and it is definitely a great value for the money. I was very worried about getting one with dead pixels or some sort of issue just from reading horror stories from people who bought Samsung products but LG has much better quality control and I have had zero issues with monitor after owning it for a couple months or so. I came from 1080p monitors and this looks amazing.

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide.
LG rolls out an eye-catching display with their 49” ultrawide monitor, boasting a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz and a truly mesmerizing 5120x1440 resolution. Dive deep into your favorite game titles that can fully embrace this monitor's capabilities, and the immersion is breathtaking. When paired with proficient window management software, monitors of this caliber make the idea of multiple screens seem old-school. Windows 11 incorporates a nifty feature that lets you pinpoint a section of the screen for a window by simply dragging it towards the top. There are also tools out there that auto-place windows based on what’s open and the hot-keys you've set for action. The picture-in-picture function is a nice touch, adjusting itself when it senses a specific input signal. You get a variety of configurations, letting you pick the position and size of the secondary input. While I appreciate the feature, it felt a tad sluggish in action. The secondary display also seemed a bit washed out compared to the primary, dominant display. However, your mileage might vary based on your source. Not every game can flex to this mammoth resolution. Several competitive fighting games might not back this resolution because of genuine concerns about unfair advantages. Yet, for those that do, this screen becomes a gamer's paradise. MMORPGs and flying/driving simulations are top picks for this display. Once you've had a taste, downgrading feels unthinkable. Seriously unthinkable.

Completely satisfied with this purchase! Gaming experience is immersive, cooled are bright, image is unexpectedly vivid and clear for a non OLED dispay. I was such between this and an OLED model, and i went with this because i thought of some other things i could do with The money saved. I am 100% confident that I made the right choice.

Immersive
LG UltraGear is a gaming powerhouse because of its fast 240Hz refresh rate and very low input lag times, this added with gaming adjustments such as crosshair for first person shooters and VRR/HDR/DAS mode this is one of the best gaming monitors around. The Good: When I got that box I was stunned, this thing looked HUGE however once I took it out of the box I noticed it was not as tall as my other 32 inch curve and this made it actually easier on my eyes to look at. I was expecting some adjustment time but didn’t really have any issues whatsoever. The display on the LG is as stunning as you can get with a VA panel, colors look crisp and text is clear (as long as your machine is able to do the full resolution) and the blacks are way better than IPS panel (not as good as OLED though). The screen is also very color accurate with DCI-p3 at 95% out of the box incase you want to use this to edit photos/videos. The display gets extremely bright and has a anti-reflective coating on it which helps reduce reflections. As stated earlier I thought the screen size was going to be too much that couldn’t have been further from the truth, the size of the screen and the curve give you a uniquely immersive experience when it comes to gaming and it feels as if your in the game. The high refresh rate and low input lag helped me fair a little better when playing against others online. All of the ports are in the back, I prefer this over being on the underside because you can easily see where you’re inputs are and plugging them in is a breeze. Besides gaming the thing I was impressed with was the PBP (picture by picture) and PIP (picture in picture) modes, these are a god sent for someone who likes to use 2 different input devices at once. I absolutely loved the fact that I was able to use my work computer on one side and personal computer on the other, since the screen is so big LG allows you to change the size of the PBP/PIP feature which works incase your machines cant keep up with the UltraGear. The monitor stand is nice and sturdy and can move up/down and tilts a lil bit if you need it. You can also move the monitor sideways to have access to the ports. The Bad: The selection buttons response on the monitor is a bit slow and takes roughly 1 to 2 seconds after you have pushed it. Auto input adjustment (HDMI 1/HDMI 2/DP switching is not perfect, and without a remote you have to do it manually. The monitor at times tends to stay on even if the device that is using it isn’t powered/sleep mode. Overall: The LG UltraGear is a great monitor with tons of gaming features to help improve your game and doubles perfectly for your work life if you have a machine that’s capable of handling it.

This 49” has you covered for both Work and Play
My first reaction to a 49” monitor is how the heck am I going to fit that on my desk. I already run two 25” monitors for work and this LG Ultragear 49” surprisingly doesn’t take up any more desk real estate than my 2 monitor setup. A 32:9 ratio of the LG 49” is much different than a traditional 16x9 ratio of a TV found in your living room. Pros: *240hz and 1ms blazing fast speeds for gaming *Can run 2 sources at the same time *Nearly 4k resolution *HDR Cons *Only 3 source input *Your video card may not support 5120x1440 *Blacks is ok As I mentioned earlier, I already ran 2 monitors before for work productivity but only gamed on 1 of the two 25” monitors because I didn’t like the bezel that splits your vision. This LG curved 49” solves my need for widescreen gaming and increased work productivity. The one caveat is that your video card will need to be able to handle a 5120x1440 resolution. My gaming rig has an RTX 3080 card that can handle the increased resolution but my older personal macbook and work supplied laptop doesn’t support the 32:9 ratio. You can get around that by running the monitor in Picture-By-Picture (PbP) mode and running dual monitors at 2560x1440 which is essentially splitting the monitor’s native resolution in half but still use all of the 49” screen. Speaking of PbP mode, it also does PiP mode if you want as well. Let’s chat about gaming first as this monitor's first priority is speed. 240hz and 1ms response time is preferred for competitive FPS shooters. The high resolution of 5120x1440 is fantastic and just nearly 88% of the way to full 4k resolution. With my RTX 3080, I’m able to get between 95-120fps at 5120x1440 full resolution on Ultra with the latest Halo Infinite in MP and solo campaign. In the high 60fps with Cyberpunk 2077 on ultra but ray tracing off. Just note that unless you have the latest gen video card, running 5120x1440 resolution is very taxing on your gaming rig that you may need to turn down some of the quality settings to hit your desired FPS. The curved radius of the screen just adds to the immersiveness. Playing at the full 32:9 ratio and 1000R curved radius screen makes me feel like I’m in the game as the monitor nearly goes past my peripheral vision. Cherry on top is that you can have the monitor add a middle crosshair to your screen so you can easily no-scope a sniper rifle in FPS games. In terms of work productivity, this 49” is a game changer. Even though my work laptop doesn’t have the power to run a native 5120x1440, I can run dual monitors in PbP mode to achieve the same result with two screens running 2560x1440. I can have multiple excel spreadsheets, email and a browser open and have room to spare on the screen. To run dual monitors, It does take 2 HDMI cables to pull this off. This is where I wish the monitor had more inputs than the 3 it has. It has 2 HDMI and 1 display port. It’s not widely advertised on LG’s website but LG does offer a free program called “Dual Controller” that you can use one keyboard and mouse to run two computers on the same screen at the same time. In summary, this monitor is a beast and best bang for the buck for the resolution and functions. While it’s no OLED, the DQHD is more than sufficient in color and brightness. The black levels aren’t OLED levels but fine for the price point. At this size, be prepared to turn your head more to view content on the other side of your monitor. You won’t be disappointed in replacing your current dual monitor setup or just enlarging your current one monitor setup. Just make sure your desk can support the 33lb monitor.
