From our list of the Best HDR Gaming Monitors, the LG Ultragear is a good addition to your desktop setup. Since this monitor is g sync compatible, you can expect to enjoy the majority of new games in astounding detail. It includes an adjustable stand that you can tilt and pivot to any way you like. In a way, it includes some of the features you would expect from the best gaming monitor.

Why We Like It – LG Ultragear

The LG Ultragear gaming monitor has a wide color gamut that brings out detailed images in your content. This monitor also has a great refresh rate that will let you play your games without any distractions from lag. For a look at its cousin model, check out our LG 24ML600M-B review.

Pros
  • 1ms motion blur reduction helps bring clarity to pictures
  • HDR10 adds some more dynamic colors into the mix
Cons
  • No built-in speakers

Performance

This gaming monitor performs at a refresh rate of 144hz, which is common among other high-end models such as the ViewSonic xg3220. It also has Radeon Freesync technology that is known for providing smooth graphics and no broken frames, making it an ideal monitor for Call of Duty. Expect no motion blur or ghosting since there is a response time of 1ms while gaming. Although, if you game for several hours in a row, you might experience an IPS glow. It comes with an adjustable stand that you can tweak to your preference or you can use it with a wall mount.

Viewing angle

Just like the Alienware AW3420DW, this ultrawide monitor gives you a viewing angle of 178 degrees. The screen size is 27” inches and it is a full HD IPS display with a max resolution of 1920×1080. There is also an aspect ratio of 16:9. The dimensions of the screen are 24.2 inches wide, 14.4” inches in height, and a depth of 1.8” inches. If you would like to check out monitors with a larger display, you may be interested in the BenQ ew3270u ps4 pro which has a 32” inch display.

Durability

The majority of customers claim that these gaming monitors are durable, but you still want to make sure that you don’t blow off steam and abuse it in any way. In case of any defects, there is a 1-year limited warranty included with the product. If you are not into this product so far, another option you may want to look at is the Philips 436M6VBPAB.

Ports/expandability

The monitor has 1 display port, 2 HDMI ports, a power port, and also a headphone port so you can enjoy your content wherever without getting distracted by loud environments or disturbing others. You can connect multiple devices at a time and save time from constantly reconnecting.

Value

This nano IPS display monitor is backed by LG, a company that has been in the game for a long time making quality and affordable tech products. After investing in this high-end LG monitor, you can expect to enjoy video games in crystal clear quality thanks to the FreeSync technology. Video games will be much more enjoyable with faster refresh rates as it allows for smoother transitions between frames in the game.

LG Ultragear Wrap Up

You can rely on the LG Ultragear to bring you an immersive experience while gaming or watching any content. While it does not have speakers to use, it does have technology like Radeon FreeSync which is perfect for games with heavily detailed graphics.
