Lg ultrawide resolution settings switchresx
The only drawback I notice is on dark/mostly black screens, where looking at the display from the side creates a white/blue sheen. I'm attaching my calibration profile in case that helps any other buyers (though keep in mind each monitor is a universe on its own, and my calibration may not be precise or accurate on your sample). Overall the image is now warmer, in a good way - colors are more real-life like, which is the goal. Once calibrated, greens became a bit muter, blues a bit better in their gradients, and reds a bit deeper. Comparing to other IPS panels I've had, the black levels on this 29WK600 are quite goodĬolors were somewhat cold and bluish out of the gate, which is typical in most monitors that don't come color calibrated as blue light looks brighter than warm light. As for contrast, my previous VA definitely had inkier blacks, but you know what you're getting into if you buy IPS vs VA.

If you're in a closed room, you may want to take it even lower. I immediately took it down to %50 and that's great during the day, but keep in mind my desk is between two giant windows. It ships setup at %100 brightness - that's WAY too much for your eyes. You can't really hold this against the panel at $200, considering there's many $600, $800 and up models that have this same issue. This is not something that bothers me, but if you're sensitive to it you should take it into account. Subjectively, it's a uniform panel, but there is some moderate backlight bleed on the sides. The backlight is also quite well distributed. The stand is wide but pretty "empty", so you still have space to put a few things around it on your desk (personally I hate wide/bulky bases where I can't put objects I need on my table).īeing an IPS, color reproduction is good (%99 RGB). The "frameless" (aka thin borders all around) looks quite nice, since the frame is under the glass it does blend away and you kind of forget about it.

You can check LG's website for more details, but the important stuff is: IPS (so, contrast ~1000:1), 2560x1080 (95 ppi at 29"), HDR10 signal support (not the same as being able to display it in its full glory), and 40-75 Freesync via HDMI or Displayport. If you're looking for an ultrawide display that's easy for a midrange GPU to drive, and don't want a monstruous 34" display on your desk, consider checking this one out. Recently I got this nice little LG 29 WK600 monitor for $200 and thought I'd make a brief review on it, as I've found it is quite good value for the amount I paid.
