I think he was saying (with maybe not so precise wording) that LG’s Nano IPS makes it more expensive to add more dimming zones, meaning this monitor would be much more expensive if it had as many dimming zones as a mini LED monitor. According to LG, the difference with Nano IPS is that they apply, “nanometer-sized particles to the screen’s LED to absorb excess light wavelengths.” So it makes sense to me based on that description that it would be more expensive if they added more LEDs.

Been using Gigabyte M32U 32" 4k 144hz IPS for a while now (moved from Samsung 49" Odyssey G9) and I really love that form factor.. its big.. it's sharp and no need for a curve to be perfectly usable for work and gaming (with 125% scaling, there's plenty of room and everything is readable)

Love the monitor and bought it for $400 off of the $1299 price at Best Buy, pre black Friday sale. Great 4k gaming with AMD Free Sync and Nvidia G-Sync too! Don't like the V shaped stand either.

Started as a decent enough review as long as it was about the stand and packaging, but took a turn for the worse as soon as it got technical: - At around 09:45. "Most things are 8 bit color"? Yeah... true... except for HDR content. Sorry, that was just downright stupid. HDR without 10 bit colors would be kinda moot because without that, all HDR would be is pretty much just a higher peak brightness. The ability to display more color variations is integral to HDR. It _would_ have been interesting to mention whether this is 8-bit + FRC or an actual 10-bit display. According to DisplayDB, this is 8-bit + FRC, by the way. - The distinction between IPS and Mini-LED seems pretty odd, too. IPS is the display, Mini-LED is the backlight. You could have an IPS display with Mini-LED backlighting. If I'm not mistaken, most Mini-LED monitors out there actually do use an IPS panel.... also, at $1000, it's pretty obvious this isn't Mini-LED, since a 32" Mini-LED costs about three times as much. And OLEDs do not have dimming zones. - Around 13:05 you have the next bit of nonsense: "you wanna be going about twice as fast as your refresh rate"? Seriously? Sure, if you don't want Freesync or GSync to actually work, you would want that. The entire point of VRR is _not_ to do that. As long as your 1% lows are within the sync range of your display, you are actually using your monitor. That sync range is usually from around 50% of the refresh rate up to the refresh rate of your display. I've never seen a VRR display that actually supports syncing frame rates _above_ its refresh rate, so VRR is disabled if that happens. Normally, you limit your frame rate to something close to the max refresh rate of your monitor (for example, 119 FPS for a 120 Hz display), disable VSync and let GSync / Freesync do its thing. Oh... and one of the good things about VRR? Those drops from 140 to 100 FPS will not cause a stutter or screen tear, so you most likely will never notice them. That's the whole point of VRR. - "A dollar per nit"? That's probably the stupidest measurement of "display quality" I've ever heard... you do realize you haven't checked the actual peak brightness of the display and even then, you won't get that peak brightness in most cases. So... what's the point of "dollar per nit"? LG's specs for this, by the way, state the brightness at 450cd (typically). I assume they mean cd/m², so that's just 450 nits. It's now over "2 dollars per nit". Is that still good value in this stupid measurement? - Way too much time spent on that "overclocking" bit, too. Either a screen can do 160 Hz or it can't. The manufacturer saying "144 Hz overclockable to 160 Hz" just means "we want to advertise 160 Hz, but we don't want to actually guarantee it". Touting this as a "feature" is ridiculous and should not be praised in a review... and you should review it as a 144 Hz panel, since that is what the manufacturer actually guarantees. Sorry, but there's just so much complete nonsense in this video... this was terrible.

I just bought the same monitor as you and I'm pretty happy with it. Of the 27 inch 4K monitors it seemed to be the best choice plus i got 20% on it. The biggest downside is the HDR which is.... okey sometimes. The local array dimming is horrible. It supposedly has 16 dimming zones compared to 8 which i have seen in a lot of other monitors of the same class. It still doesn't matter much, it looks pretty bad in content with a lot of dark in it.

This is a COMPLETELY different monitor than the 27 inch Gp950. Do not make the mistake thinking this is just a 32 inch version of that.

@@vintage0x yeah man no prob. I mean everyone thinks because you spend a grand you need an OLED TV, that's not the case at all, especially with an IPS panel this good. I have the luxury of living near like 4 microcenters so I always get to see the panels before buying them. LG stepped up their game big time....not sure if they're gonna make a GQ version of the 27, but if they did it would be a no brainer instant buy. Everyone is so OLED crazy this monitor isn't getting it's proper shine, at least in my opinion anyway.

1440p on 32" is still pretty good. Text is still crisp af at that size, but getting closer you 'do' start to see pixelated edges. If for some reason you just can't stand that, like it hurts you or something, then yes, go for 4k on anything 32"+. But, I've owned a 27" 1440p monitor and now have a 32" 1440p 'ultra'wide monitor, and I can't tell any difference in perceived pixel density. (ultra is in quotes because Gigabyte has a 34" version that I regrettably passed on... and worse, they just released an updated version of both the 32 and 34 model that has better specs... buyer's remorse to the max.) Personally, I think 4k on 32" screens is a bit pointless when 1440p is still so crisp, and you'd have to pretty much be nose to screen to see pixel jagged edges. I'd rather they put more effort, and price, elsewhere than 4k panels for 32" and under screens.

I'm kind of baffled this doesn't have USB-C and a KVM built in at this price. I guess you're really paying for the Nano IPS and HDR 1000, but you would really have to want those features to justify it. There are much more capable displays, albeit maybe a reduced overall quality/brightness, for much cheaper.

Man, I love My LG 34GP83A-B as it's my first ultrawide and pairs perfectly with my new Dreamachine (Ryzen 5950x/ RTX 3080 Ti / LianLi O11D EVO). I got a adjustable vivo mount. The HDR on it is awesome and the light curve is perfect. For the price ($799 in May 2022) I'm fully on board with LG Ultragear soooo I just ordered a 2nd one on the side LG 24GN650-b XD. ($160) My curved 34inch is running at 160hz OC, HDR, Max settings on all my games, and 0 flickering or any other issues after 2 months of constant use. I don't expect the 24'' to be as good which is why it's going to be my vertical tabber. LG's gimmicky 28'' (u did a review) is too pricey when I could've gotten a 27inch with same specs for $299. Both monitors with Vivo mounts will fit on my small desk. LG Ultragear are Fantastic, Fast, crisp colored monitors but I got shotty customer service to inquire about my 2nd monitor.

How’s the backlight bleed on it ? How does the atw polarizer work for reducing backlight bleed and ips glow ?

I know this is a sponsored video and the conclusion has to be “this is a good buy!” but $1,000 for these specs isn’t really anything to write home about. 1000 nits of brightness is great and all, but you won’t get proper HDR (or even acceptable HDR) with 24 zones. The only reason to get this over say, the Inzone M9 is the size which I don’t feel justifies the extra $100 for worse HDR performance. If you’re really into HDR, you’re better off spending the extra cash on a Neo G8. If you just want 4k 144hz, you’re better off with a M28U or 4k G7 for literally half the price at $500. The 32Q950 is kind of just a master of none.
