LG 38GL950G-B Reviews
Its a good display... No smart home integration...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good display. Probably made even better by avoiding the debacle that is Thinq though having a smart home integration strategy for the display is what pushes my experience with it from Excellent to Good.
Excellent Monitor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am delighted with this purchase as it is everything the marketing material says it is. The image quality elicited from the monitor is clear, precise, responsive, and vibrant. I curve screen allows me to run multiple applications simultaneously.
Excellent monitor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been thinking about an ultrawide monitor for a while, I wasn't sure if I'd like an ultrawide as I previously was using an 32" LED TV which I thought was big enough. I looked at reviews in general and decided a 38" ultrawide was one I'd try the 49" ones just seemed like they would be too wide, so I got this one (LG 38GL950G-B 38" ultrawide). All the games I own run fast and smooth on it. I love it. Things to note: For some reason you can't get to the BIOS when using the Display Port cable it doesn't display anything until it gets to the windows log in. Fortunately if you use the HDMI cable instead you can get to the BIOS. Switch back to the Display Port when you are done messing with the BIOS as you miss out on some features if you use HDMI. To make my games use the full monitor I changed the settings in Nvida Geforce Experience. To do this find your game, click on Details button, then click on the wrench and set the resolution to 3840x1600, click Apply. Just mentioning it as some games don't show the resolution in their options, but they will work using the settings I've described. The stand is substantial and I tried to capture in the photo that you can actually slide paper freely under the stand due to the stand been on rubber feet, which is kind of useful if you want a keyboard cheat sheet on your desk and you like the monitor up close when gaming.
Great screen!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace my old 28" "all-in-one" curved computer and screen, and the LG 38" 21:9 curved screen surpassed my wildest expectations. It runs high-end game software without any problems, and the screen space is humungous. I am very happy with this product.
38" is the sweet spot
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had a 34" and a 49" and I was unhappy with both. The 38" is where it's at! Not to mention the vertical resolution of 1600 is amazing. The software bundled does not work. Many people have the same issue.
Awesome Monitor witrh Great Features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for a monitor that had a G-sync module and was rated highly. After much research I came across the lg 38gl950g-b. It was exactly what I was looking for. It was easy to use, and presented a very clean and crisp image and letters. In addition, I have noticed no motion blur or ghosting and the latency is extremely low. It is an absolute pleasure using every day and I love using it while gaming. The quality that went into this monitor, assures me that I will be using it for a very long time.
Sorry I don't recommend this monitor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sorry I don't recommend this monitor because after the first 6 months 8 vertical lines appeared on right hand side of the screen and never went away. Its obvious to me it is a defective LCD panel and I am a electronics technician with 35 years of experience
Easy setup; perfect size
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 2 months of use, I’m still excited about this purchase! I had been researching monitors for months and I’m so happy I decided on this monitor. Beautiful colors & images. The reader setting is great when working with documents.
