LG UltraGear 32GN600-B - LED-Monitor - QHD - 80 cm (32")

Product Information

Au final, je dirais que la 2K 32 pouces, c'est vraiment le pied. Que ce soit en jeu, en bureautique ou en vidéo. Par contre je me demande si je n'aurais pas préféré sacrifier la fréquence d'image pour du vrai HDR, étant donné que ce qu'on gagne en fluidité, on le perd en netteté de mouvement (voir vidéo). Out of the box setup was good overall. The gamma was a tad low at 2.16 average but not by anything significant. We had a very good average colour temperature across all grey shades of 6494k (0% deviance) and also an excellent white point of 6508k basically spot on with our target. There were some moderate errors in the greyscale with 2.9 average measured, but overall considering this is a fairly budget gaming screen we were impressed by the setup. Let’s get into the LG 32GN600-B’s menus, up and down control brightness, left and right control volume for the headphone out, not for the non-existent speakers. Straight press gives you Power Off, Input, Menu and Game Mode, which gives you access to 4 out of the 7 profiles, kind of weird. Input gives an easy toggle…and Power Off works immediately for a 2-step power off. This is kinda like getting to drive a sports car, you’re all excited about trying it out, you open the door and have to sit on a milk crate and that’s your experience. We re-calibrated on PS4 three times, getting the same result each time. Usually with HDR, there’s that “ooooh” when it looks good, but HDR has really poor color volume here from the incomplete DCI-P3 and Rec. 2020 color gamuts. So, don’t buy this for HDR.

So the LG 32GN600-B is a great gaming monitor. It has good color accuracy and the picture quality is also good, and with low input lag and 165 hertz refresh, it’s suitable for professional gamers, even though you may get some blurriness or artifacts in transitions to and from dark scenes. We tried it a bit with PS4 Pro at 4K and that looked good, and it should work equally well with newer Xbox and PS5. And for camera usage, the LG 32GN600-B does accept 4K at 24 frames, popping up a dialog to tell you about the resolution mismatch which we really appreciate. This is great for reviewing footage in an emergency, we tested this with a Lumix G9. The ratio between the horizontal and the vertical side of the display. Some of the standard and widely used aspect ratios are 4:3, 5:4, 16:9 and 16:10. So TLDR, the LG 32GN600-B is a flat 1440p VA 165 Hertz panel, having excellent low input lag, and 1 millisecond response with 5 Gray to Gray. The SDR colors are outstanding out of the box, and perfect after calibration. Supporting FreeSync Premium and working with G-Sync over DisplayPort only, the menu is snappy, and the 8 mm pixel to air is pretty good. For gaming, the Response Time or Overdrive setting of Faster does best at 165Hz, and Normal does best at 60 Hertz.Clarified text throughout as part of Test Bench 1.2, including adding text to the Console Compatibility boxes. 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. Information about the maximum vertical viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. The market is seeing a real push in this space for 32” 1440p displays and they are winning us over we have to say. The text and font size are still perfectly comfortable to use and sharp even at this larger screen size for general and office uses, and certainly no issue for gaming and multimedia. vu la taille, si vous aimez être près de l'écran, c'est un peu gênant qu'il soit plat. Les bords de l'écran sont un peu "décalés".

At the maximum refresh rate of the screen we will also include our familiar more detailed response time measurements, which includes a wider range of transition measurements as well as some analysis of things like the refresh rate compliance. This identifies how many of the measured pixel transitions were fast enough to keep up with the frame rate of the screen. Ideally you’d want pixel response times to be consistently and reliably shorter than this refresh rate cycle, otherwise if they are slower it can lead to additional smearing and blurring on moving content. This panel’s listed brightness is 350 cd/m2, or nits, but actually delivers just 300 with SDR. This is not market standard, as you’d expect the monitor to deliver normal SDR content at the listed value. Side by side with other 350 nit monitors, this 300 won’t be quite as bright. It only hits 350 with HDR10, but the picture is darker, washed out, with only vibrant colors matching SDR levels, and bright whites hitting above SDR at 360 cd/m2. This is not a monitor for HDR. If you’re shopping for HDR, you need higher nits, and look for high DCI-P3 coverage in specs- this monitor has none listed. Gamut coverage – we provide measurements of the screens colour gamut relative to various reference spaces including sRGB, DCI-P3, Adobe RGB and Rec.2020. Coverage is shown in absolute numbers as well as relative, which helps identify where the coverage extends beyond a given reference space. A CIE-1976 chromaticity diagram (which provides improved accuracy compared with older CIE-1931 methods) is included which provides a visual representation of the monitors colour gamut as compared with sRGB, and if appropriate also relative to a wide gamut reference space such as DCI-P3. So to summarize, yes, the LG 32GN600-B 165Hz is a good gaming monitor with lots going for it if you never need to use HDR. If you’re doing media creation and are looking for a good affordable screen, we’ll throw the link up top right for recent monitors we’ve tested, our favorite is the Acer 4K but the Samsung 4K is likely an easier to find option.

Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio.

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. There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used. 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. Furthermore, the model up from this, the LG 32GP850-B you’d figure with its Nano IPS panel would deliver a much improved HDR experience, except the panel hits 430 cd/m2 across the board, and a competing VA panel, can hit 450, delivering a far more competent HDR experience and brightness, and matching this model’s price.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 The percentage of the approximate area, taken by the active part of the screen, to the total front area. The operating humidity shows the acceptable level of humidity, in which the display will function flawlessly. It sets a lower and an upper humidity level for safe operation and is measured in percentage. While HDR10 handling is advertised for this LG 32GN600-B, the reality is that monitors deliver SDR at the cd/m2 or nits the panel is rated for, and then boost to get the added brightness for HDR, usually by 100 nits or more. LG on the other hand, lowers overall brightness and shows full white just a bit above original brightness. This shows LG’s incompetence with HDR implementation in this monitor, so don’t buy this if one of the primary reasons is watching HDR.

DCI P3 is a color space, introduced in 2007 by the SMPTE. It is used in digital cinema and has a much wider gamut than the sRGB. Input has these options….. And General has 17 Languages… HDMI Compatibility Mode may work with sources better that only use HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort Version is grayed out if using HDMI, Buzzer- there’s a beep when you turn on the monitor, and Information gives you your resolution. The operating temperature shows the safe temperature range (from minimum to maximum), within which the display will function flawlessly. Outside this range it might operate improperly and/or fail entirely. Size class of the display as declared by the manufacturer. Often this is the rounded value of the actual size of the diagonal in inches. The results of this response time behavior though is that above about 120Hz, the G2G response times start to get a bit too slow to keep up with the frame rate demands and you start to see some additional smearing added to the moving images, especially in darker shades. At 120Hz, 83% of the measured transitions were within the refresh rate window, i.e. they were fast enough to keep up with 120 frames per second being sent to the screen. This was a good result. However, at 165Hz only 43% of the transitions were within this window (165 frames per second now) which leads to a bit of added smearing in practice.Calibration and profiling can of course produce excellent results if you have a suitable calibration device and appropriate software. Our results are included above. You can see the recommended OSD settings above although very few changes are needed really there, and the main corrections are taken care of at the profile level. If you want you can also try our calibrated ICC profile out. Gaming
