When I the LG here in the warehouse for 280, - have seen euro (Very good, packaging and everything is still without damage) I slammed. The items came from and why it was a warehouse Deal? Sticker by DHL with "delivery refused". Therefore, everything is still original and never opened.
Monitor assembled (foot with 2 screws secure) and up. MHH, not much wider than my 27 "but for extremely low ....
Well, the eyes have to get used to it. And what can I say that, even goes very quickly.
So let's quickly tried a little game (Wolfenstein, New World Order) and jo, the part may be dropped.
Even in pure desktop operating with multiple windows, RDP Session, which is to really work brilliantly. The first bezgl skepticism. The height and the strange format (rather cinema feeling, because desktop) has given way to fast.
But, now it will be interesting. The part itself is indeed hardware be calibrated, as well as NEC and Dell is the same panel used here. So let my X-Rite i1Display connected pro, TrueColor software loaded from LG and what does that part?
The software from X-Rite (iProfiler) is not compatible with true color. Uninstall brings nothing, because it supports exactly 5 different colorimeter. x-Rites Colormunkis, Spyder 3 and 4 and the LG-own.
In forums is rumored about the fact that sometimes the i1Display should be supported, but just not at the moment ....
Well, TrueColor uninstalled and armed me with iProfiler. Calibration is running largely on ADC (Automatic Display Control) and then I 120cdm to normal work and play are too little, calibrated with 160cdm and yes, that is fun.
*** UPDATE ***
So, I've made even bother to seek and search and search. The LG monitors can be wonderfully with X-Rite's i1Display use when the correct TrueColor Pro version is used. Oddly grabs LG do not work for this monitor for downloads, but for example, when LG 27EA83-D
([...])
This version of True Color Pro version 3.10 and not 2.x and this can also handle the i1Display and without any problem. Calibration better and more effectively than with the iProfiler ...
*** UPDATE *** END
The matte display convinces. and I noticed very little halos, but they are negligible. If you really want more, which must already take much more money in the hand.
USB3.0 - Hub needs a driver (but also a COM driver - Emulator brings ...), True Color with only a few devices compatible and the speakers are there, but I recommend you will not use, unless there are no other sound device ...
Now I'm going to the part still hang on the wall (VESA adapter is already there) and it depends also at eye level. Since the monitor itself apart from the tilt does not ergo mix features, it is unfortunately not adjustable. Due to the low altitude, has the part on the wall or something as feet underneath.
All in all a good choice and I would buy again.
