About this deal

As for input lag, the Time Sleuth reported just 2.1ms of on display latency, and I’m happy to report that my new input lag testing mode for the response time tool reports a decent 7.5ms for the on display latency. The discrepancy there is down to the refresh rate taking so long. The key thing to see here though is that none of the results took more than a single frame to start rendering which is great news.

Information about the minimum amount of time, in which the pixels change from one color to another. Very often the manufacturer provides the response time for transition from grey-to-grey (G2G). One area I was surprised to find wasn’t quite as good was the panel uniformity. The lower right corner was considerably (although not visibly) dimmer than the brightest area in the centre. Like, 18% less light. The centre was at 408 nits, while the lower right was at just 335 nits! In fact, both the top and bottom edges were generally over 10% down from the centre. While I can’t say I noticed that in use, that’s less than ideal for sure. Approximate diagonal size of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the diagonal is calculated from the width and height of the screen. Often even a higher peak luminance can be achieved under certain conditions. For example, when a smaller area/APL of the display is used for showing a bright object, when a bright object is displayed for a short time, etc.

Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. The LG 27UP850-W has an acceptable pixel response time, but the 60Hz limitation is noticeable in some instances. Using the overdrive is essential, but we can only recommend its Fast level since the maximum will induce overshoot. Doing so will clean up the visible trailing and persistence, but it is still not comparable to a dedicated gaming variant.

Information about the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical side of the screen. A higher resolution allows the display of a more detailed and of higher quality image. Desktop monitors and smart TVs experience a latency/lag in visualizing the information. The time in milliseconds that the display needs to visualize the signal input. Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases. The stand included with the LG 27UP850-W offers tilt, pivot, and height adjustments so you can get a good viewing angle. You can’t swivel it from side to side, but that’s only necessary if you plan on using this as a secondary display or if you have multiple monitors. You can use VESA mounts, but that’s unnecessary in most cases.images simulated to enhance feature understanding. It may differ from actual use. 10Comparison of Mode 'OFF' (left image) and AMD FreeSync™. Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Dimensions, weight and color Information about the dimensions and the weight of the specific model with and without stand as well as the colors, in which it is offered to the market. Width

I have the monitor hooked up to my gaming pc, xbox series x and my macbook pro; and everything works perfectly. The ergo stand is very easy to setup and use ( Except for the cable management slot which took me a bit of time). I am a graphic designer/ casual gamer and this monitor works well with anything. The images are sharp and colour accurate; the bigger screen real estate means you can multitask with ease and I honestly think that this is a good monitor for casual 60fps gaming; with HDR10 of course! The maximum number of colors, which the display is able to reproduce, depends on the type of the panel in use and color enhancing technologies like FRC.

Stock List

The LG 27UP850-W renders 100% sRGB and around 96% DCI-P3 for excellent vibrancy in SDR and HDR. Its default accuracy is great since the average is only at 1.89 so users won’t see color errors in any scenario. Calibrating the device isn’t necessary since it looks like LG had that covered from the factory. images simulated to enhance feature understanding.

The static contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce simultaneously, for example, within one and the same frame/scene. Speaking of their calibration software, it works with most colourimeters. It’ll work with the X-Rite ColorMunki, i1DISPLAY Pro, Pro Plus, Studio and i1Pro2 and i1Pro3, plus the Spyder5 and SypderX and even some higher end tools like the Klein K10A. I’ve got a SpyderX so I ran it with that, and the magic here is that the calibration profile is actually loaded onto the monitor as a picture mode, so unlike most displays where the calibration gets loaded into your video card to alter the image it outputs to then get accurate colours, this alters the monitor’s profile. Out of the box I measured a deltaE of just 2.5 which is just outside the target of under 2, with the darker shades being the most out of spec. Happily, after the calibration it’s practically perfect. It averaged just 0.74 deltaE, with no result exceeding the threshold of 2. Excellent.

Updated to Test Bench 1.2, resulting in changes to the results and scores with the Response Time and Input Lag. Added tests for Console Compatibility and macOS compatibility and made minor changes to other tests, which you can see in our Changelog. We tested the monitor with the PS5's new variable refresh rate feature and confirmed that it's not compatible, since the PS5 only supports HDMI Forum VRR.Information about the brightness of the screen. It is measured in candela per square metre (cd/m²). Information about the maximum horizontal viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. The most widely used panels are those with 6, 8, and 10 bits for each of the RGB components of the pixel. They provide 18-, 24-, and 30-bit color, respectively.
