Top critical review
1.0 out of 5 starsHorrible picture quality
Reviewed in Canada on June 15, 2023
I had high hopes for this. Reviews were good and LG is a reputable brand. Unfortunately the viewing angles are atrocious. And the colors are washed out. I tried looking up some guides on how to fixed washed out colors, such as changing nvidia control panel to set the color range to full 0-255 bit, but that was already the default. Tried decreasing gamma a bit with windows calibration, no help.
I am 2 feet away from the monitor. The picture I attached shows the same gray box across the screen. Notice the boxes on the right and left are more washed out than the center ones. This defect is isn't a calibration error, it's a defect of the panel being VA. VA panels have poor viewing angles. I did research beforehand and some people said they can still look good but they are wrong here. The more the angle away from the area you are looking, the worse it looks. VA also has less accurate colors. Superior contrast doesn't help. I am always getting a IPS panel from now on.
