Amazing monitor

By Tim Gh
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-06-29

Bought this monitor to replace the 32" 1440p monitor I was using beforehand and this monitor has been a game changer! Probably the best upgrade I could've made to my set up as now I have a beautiful monitor for gaming and the ultrawide aspect ratio makes it easier to set up multiple windows on the monitor for when I'm doing schoolwork. Glad I finally switched to OLED as this monitor makes my games look so good. Couldn't be happier with my purchase!

This thing is HUUUUUGE & amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Genuinely, I can't get over the size of this monitor. I had a pretty big monitor before this, but I somehow still didn't have enough screen real estate. But the LG 52" UltraGear has all the screen real estate you can ask for. If you have two monitors and want to simplify your setup to just 1, this will give you everything you need! I get a solid 4 quadrants that are all functional and useful. My eyes did take a day to adjust to just how big the screen is. So if you are questioning yourself at first, give it a moment. The quality of the monitor is amazing. Great graphics, refresh rate, and easily connects to everything I have docked/plugged in. It was super easy to setup, literally took 5 minutes. I have a standing desk and it doesn't impact the functionality at all. The built in speakers are ok overall. From a gaming perspective it absolutely feels more immersive. Everything runs smoothly.
