 2.0 out of 5 stars Terrible bleed/viewing angle/washed colors I'm a software developer and obviously stare at screens all day. I've been rocking a 25" ASUS PB258Q (WQHD) for a couple of years and wanted to upgrade to a 32" 4k. I've been satisfied with the quality of my ASUS monitor but wanted a size increase do be able to push my monitor further back on my desk.From opening the box I was impressed with the size. Assembly of the stand was very easy, it came with the necessary cables. I must say that I HATE having proprietary power cables like LG provides. Would much rather have a universal power cord like everyone else.I plugged this bad boy into my MacBook Pro using the provided Display Port cable and my El Gato Thunderbolt 3 dock. At first I was impressed, especially with the sheer size and resolution. I had it scaled at about 1.5x so that things weren't so tiny. My MacBook pro recognized and scaled this very well.The issues started when I opened up my code editor, which is dark themed. This thing has some HUGE issues with bleed/viewing angle/color accuracy all at once. To be clear, I had the monitor about 2.5ft from me. Only about 1/3 of the monitor was visible at a time without significant wash-out issues. I would have to physically reposition my head to see other sections of the screen. Not only that, but the parts that weren't washed out had very poor colors in the first place. I compared this side-by-side with my ASUS monitor and MacBook screen, and it was a night-and-day difference. It was almost as if there was a metallic sheen to the colors of this monitor. No matter what preset or settings I tried to adjust, it was just horrible to look at. Again, this only was an issue with darker scenes, but thats what most programming tools are (for eye-care purposes).If you were wondering, the room was completely dark, in a basement, at night. There was no reason for it to be that bad and that hard to see those dark scenes. It actually hurt my eyes after staring at it for a while.For reference, I have attached a couple of crappy pictures taken with my iPhone. One of them is my ASUS monitor, and the other is the LG monitor this review is about. I know these pictures aren't perfect, but they were taken at the same time with the same distance, and the same code editor (WebStorm) with a dark theme, and it is noticeably different.I decided to sleep on it and try again the next day to see if maybe I was tired and my eyes were just hurting. The next day I hated it more than the previous and decided there MUST be something wrong. Hopefully this is a dud unit, because there is no way I would use this for actual work.tl;dr: I would not recommend this monitor, ESPECIALLY if you are a developer. The color accuracy is VERY poor and the viewing angles are atrocious, especially in dark scenes.I never ever write reviews. Reviews with images

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2019 *stands on soap box* When I first booted this monitor up I smiled and knew I wanted 2x 32" displays. Not sure if I will buy another one of these or wait for the 4k @144hz to come down in price. This is a great monitor if you use a lot of Excel or multi-page docs. I use the display port with a 1070 Ti and the only real drawbacks I've encountered have been the lack of modern 4k features like HDR, 4k upscaling, or blur/jitter reduction. Some games may require adjusting full screen settings if you run them at a different resolution than your desktop. The 60Hz is kind of a buzzkill as you'll notice more artifacts in fast paced games, but overall it's acceptable. The built-in speakers leave a lot to be desired but they're still a nice feature to have if you're in a tight office space. The HDMI port carries audio; so now is pretty much the only time you'll ever get to test out those sweet Nvidia audio drivers - on rear mounted/down facing stereo speakers nonetheless. Overall I got what I expected and there's no buyers remorse. Will definitely consider buying more LG products, pending the lifespan of this display. I've been a fan of Samsung because they last forever on wall mounts and hopefully LG can live up to that standard. Some people seem to have issues with bleeding and improper black levels, I'd recommend trying a display port cable or buying a new HDMI cable that meets the 4k @60hz standard. Quality of cables makes a huge difference with precision work. Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2022 I've been using this for over a year now and I've had no issues at all. This is my main monitor and I use it daily. The quality is absolutely insane for a 4k Monitor. I did buy over a year ago now but it has been my best purchase to date that I use :) Top reviews from other countries5.0 out of 5 stars Der für mich beste VA-Monitor in 32" Reviewed in Germany on March 18, 2018 Ich habe den LG 32UD59 mit dem AOC U3277FWQ, dem iiyama ProLite X3272UHS-B1 und dem Samsung U32H850 verglichen. Also alles was sich in der Preiskategorie um die 400-500 Euro befindet. Ich würde eigentlich ein IPS Display bevorzugen, allerdings gehen da die guten Monitore hier erst ab ca. 800 Euro los. Für den Aufpreis bekommt man ein blickwinkelunabhängigeres Gerät. Den Aufpreis bin ich persönlich aber nicht bereit zu bezahlen, da VA bereits gut genug für mich ist. Gelandet bin ich schließlich beim LG. Der LG ist im Vergleich etwas wärmer abgestimmt, was sich vor allem beim Weiß bemerkbar macht. So kühl wie bspw. beim iiyama wirkt das Weiß hier nicht. Ich mag es beim LG definitiv lieber, da es sehr gefällig und nicht so anstrengend wirkt. Die Farbwiedergabe finde indes ich sehr gelungen. Bei allen anderen VA-Monitoren hatte ich teilweise Probleme mit Magenta-Tönen, die etwas überzeichnet wirkten (v.a beim AOC und Samsung). Der AOC ist im übrigens nur dann wirklich gut, wenn man den sRGB Modus nutzt. Leider ist er dabei auf Max-Helligkeit, was auf Dauer in den Augen weh tut. Regelt man die Helligkeit runter, wird man aus dem sRGB Modus rausgeschmissen. Manuell lässt sich das Ding leider nicht so gut kalibrieren. Mir hat er von den genannten, zusammen mit dem Samsung, am wenigsten gefallen. Schon besser war da der iiyama. Er ist insgesamt etwas kühler abgestimmt als der LG, was man wohl einfach mögen muss. Der LG gefällt mir schon out of the box besser. Er kommt dazu noch mit freesync, was eine nette Zugabe ist. Die Einstellungsmöglichkeiten sind dazu noch größer als beim iiyama. Insgesamt bin ich relativ klar beim LG gelandet und bereue es nicht. 5.0 out of 5 stars Monitor de 10 Reviewed in Spain on August 28, 2018 Antes había comprado el de 27 pulgadas IPS, pero las 5 pulgadas más de este LG 32UD59-B merecen la pena, incluso a pesar de que es un panel VA y no IPS: la visión horizontal es
perfecta, si no se necesita ver el monitor lateralmente (sino, mejor el IPS), pero el contraste es magnífico, así como la gama de color alcanzada (igual que el BENQ, que vale 100€ más). Lo uso para diseño gráfico y va genial. Además tiene una aplicación para poder controlar el formato de imagen para cada programa empleado, cambiando automáticamente los ajustes. 4.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly good high end monitor Reviewed in India on December 29, 2019 Among the best top end monitors currently. Our primary use is to write software (and not gaming!). So ergonomics (adjustments), screen resolution and brightness (easy on the eyes) and real estate were the primary considerations. Also want to point out that this is the second large value item I have purchased from Amazon India and the shipment was on point: no damages to the product or packaging. Delivery on time via OTP validation. 5.0 out of 5 stars Tolles Bild, bin super zufrieden Reviewed in Germany on September 6, 2018 Der Monitor macht auf mich einen guten Eindruck. Das Bild ist scharf, die Farben satt, die Bedienung und der Aufbau einfach. Der Preis ist top und 32" sind für mich optimal. 4K ist natürlich was Neues. Aber nach 1 Tag hab ich mich daran gewöhnt. Die Verarbeitung ist wie bei allen Monitoren heutzutage: Nur Plastik. Ich hatte bisher ein Apple Cinema Display, das war eine GANZ andere Liga was das angelangt. Trotzdem Design: Das Design ist schlicht und unauffällig. Wenigstens macht man hier keine Experimente (bei dem vielen Plastik). Auch schön: Im Gegensatz zu einem Samsung, der in meiner engeren Wahl stand, hat dieser Monitor einen höhenverstellbaren Fuß, was für mich ein klares Plus ist. Kaufempfehlung. 4.0 out of 5 stars Günstiger und guter Monitor - Lautsprecher leider unbrauchbar Reviewed in Germany on July 17, 2018 Wer einen günstigen 32" Monitor mit 4k@60Hz sucht, ist hier wohl gut beraten. Läuft bei mir tadellos am einem SurfaceBook über MiniDP (mit einem Lenovo Kabel - https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B008XTW666/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) . Bild und Einstellungen für Büroarbeit sind vollkommen ausreichend; wie es sich im Gamig-Bereich verhält, kann ich leider nicht sagen. Auch physisch lässt sich der Monitor gut in Höhe, Neigung etc. ausrichten. Mechanische macht das Gerät ebenfalls einen guten Eindruck. Ansonsten ist der Monitor recht spartanisch ausgestattet (kein USB Hub, berührungsempfindliches VA Panel, etc). Aber das entspricht der Beschreibung und ist gemessam am Preis vollkommen in Ordnung. Volle Punktzahl soweit. Einen Punkt Abzug gibt es für die Lautsprecher. Die sind absolut unbrauchbar (aber mehr als einen Punkt dafür abzuziehen, wäre bei so einem Monitor mE nicht gerechtfertigt). Für System-Sounds OK, für mehr aber eigentlich nicht. Selbst bei firmen-internen Trainingsvideos stellt man sich sofort die Frage "Wie schalte ich auf die LS vom Notebook um, oder wo sind die Kopfhörer?" Über YouTube Videos oder gar Filme brauchen wir gar nicht zu reden. Klingt wie am Telefon in den späten 80ern. Vielleicht ist das aber auch per Design - für den Ausnahmefall OK, für den Genuss wird man sich vielleicht ohnehin externe LS (bei wohl jedem Monitor) kaufen. Aber vielleicht wäre es eine Idee, den Text in der Beschreibung anzupassen. |
