Has anyone found a way to make the colors look good?
Specially when using HDR, It looks sobad side to side to a 27gl850b from 3 years ago, a lot of colors are just washed out or dull. Even a Dualup I have near it, have better vibrance and saturated colors and it's not a great panel at all.
Bought it for 750€ thinking it would be good at that price, and I could ignore some of the complains about it, and here I am, thinking on returning it.
Brightness is not a problem, I use all my displays at about 120 nits, motion clarity is amazing and could be a super selling point f you could maintain 240fps everywhere, but you won't even with a 4090 and glitch-lss 3 and there is no 120 hz bfi, even ignoring the text rendering problems, the colors are an issue, no matter what I try on the RGB levels, never look pretty like some oled tv's or great IPS's.
Also, the HDR, wtf LG, not letting the customer calibrate the RGB? Activating HDR have 2 modes, gamer 1 aka yellow mode, where whites are literally yellow, or gamer 2 aka blue mode where whites are blue
I get pc users have been after oled monitors for so much time, that now everyone get's excited by them, but this one at this price, don't know, doesn't seem like a good deal tbf, like this should be a 500€ display (even with the PC tax vs TVs), not much more, I wouldn't want to be one of the customers who paid 1200€ just 3 months ago. I mean, you can even purchase a S95B 55" for 950€, wth are they thinking charging about 1000€ (when not on sale) for this 27"
If this were a TV and not a display, and LG tried to charge 1000, it would sell literally 0.
oh yes, and the cherry on top, is that when connected through HDMI, if you use anything at full screen the monitor changes automatically to 4k 120hz and doesn't let the user change it manually, forcing him to use a DP cable without enough bandwidth for 1440p 240 12 bit, or edit resolutions with CRU to be able to use the HDMI 48gb input, but half of the times after editing with CRU at least with nvidia, the drivers suddenly loses the gsync compatibility with the display
what a disastrous release.
