LG Monitor 27GN850-B 27GN850B 27" QHD Wide 1440p (27GN850)

Product Information

The 27GN850-B displays wider SDR and HDR color gamuts, meaning it's a better choice for content creators. the 144hz refresh rates lets gamers see the next frame more quickly and makes image to appear smoother. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. With quick cyclic switching between different color tones, an illusion for a new intermediate color tone is created. with ips 1ms gtg, you can raise your winning rate with minimized afterimage and a fast response time.

The most widely used panels are those with 6, 8, and 10 bits for each of the RGB components of the pixel. Unlike the LG gaming monitor, the Gigabyte device has a KVM switch, which simplifies controlling multiple computers. It supports Adaptive Sync and is compatible with both FreeSync and G-SYNC to reduce screen tearing, and the input lag is also incredibly low.I've had it for a few years and been mostly satisfied with it but I had been wanting to upgrade to an IPS for a while. The Samsung has a faster 165Hz refresh rate, and it's certified by AMD to have native FreeSync support, while the LG is FreeSync compatible. Its 27 inch, 1440p screen makes it good for office use and content creators, and it has wide viewing angles if you need to share your screen with someone else. However, it's not a good choice for dark rooms because it has a low contrast ratio that makes blacks appear closer to gray. Its 27 inch screen size allows you to open multiple windows at once, and its 1440p resolution delivers clear text.

The 27GN850-B has a higher 1440p resolution, but it has a lower refresh rate of 144Hz compared to the 27GN750's 240Hz, which also has a lower 1080p resolution.

Total Immersion with Overwhelming Speed The 144Hz refresh rate monitor combined with a 1ms response rate offers smoother, clearer action while reducing blur and ghosting. A few people expressed interest in a comparison between the two in the r/buildapcsales thread so I figured I'd post a review here. On the other hand, the LG displays a wider color gamut in SDR and HDR, and it has much better out-of-the-box accuracy, but this can also vary between units.Reviewers also praised its 1440p resolution and wide viewing angles, which proved similar to the LG 27GN880-B. the 27 inch ultragear supports hdr10 providing high-fidelity color for reproducing, and gamer experience of realistic visual immersion.

It also has two USB inputs, which the 27GN850-B doesn't have, so you can easily charge your devices while working. The LG has a quicker response time at its max refresh rate and 60Hz, but the ASUS has a Black Frame Insertion feature to clear up motion blur.In spite of paying attention and showing great sensitivity when providing the information, we can not guarantee 100% accuracy. The Gigabyte offers more features, such as a USB-C input that supports DisplayPort and charging, a Picture-in-Picture mode, and a KVM. While it displays a wide range of colors, its overall HDR performance is limited because it doesn't get bright enough to make highlights stand out. Gamma follows the target curve very well, and the color temperature is extremely close to the 6500K target.

It's similar to the LG 27GN950-B, and it's made entirely out of basic, plastic materials that feel solid. There are many various interfaces under the VESA standard, which differ in the size of the brackets, the distances between the screw holes and their number. ICC profiles aren't the best because of panel variations but I like to use them as a baseline since I no longer have access to a colorimeter. The 27GP850 also has an optional black frame insertion feature to reduce the appearance of persistence blur, but it's a bit limited and only works over a narrow refresh rate range. Both are 1440p monitors, but the smaller size of the 27GN850-B means it has a greater pixel density, resulting in a crisper image.If I had it as a standalone monitor I probably wouldn't notice it as much but having it next to the GL83A really highlights the differences.
