As per the Monitors Unboxed review on YouTube, this monitor has a single overdrive experience for the Variable Refresh Rate. What this means in plain English is that if you choose the "Fast" VRR mode for the display (which is the default out of the box), you will be a great experience whether you are gaming at 144, 90 or 60 fps without the need to change settings on a per game basis. For example, on my 7900xt with Ryzen 3700x, I can get 144fps on Forza Horizon 4, lock the frame rate at 90fps on Cyberpunk, or have around 45-50 frames on Starfield, and all games look great with no ghosting or other graphical artifacts.
Colors on this monitor are great as is the brightness. While this monitor does not have true HDR capabilities such as a mini-led array of lights, the monitor is very bright at its out of the box setting of 40 out of 100. Dark scenes are nice an inky without any noticeable backlight blooming as can occur on other LCDs (such as my old U3415W which did have noticeable blooming around the edges of the screen). Colors are great as per the supported 10bit color panel and thanks to HDMI 2.1 can be enabled at the same time as a 144hz refresh rate unlike other monitors with HDMI 2.0 or below.
For those with 60hz monitors thinking about upgrading to 144hz but still not sure if it is worth it, trust me when I say it totally is. While there was a big jump in clarity moving from 1440p to 4K, the jump from 60 to 144 trumped the resolution increase. This is because the faster refreshing screen eliminated a lot of the blur when items are in motion. This was particularly noticeable in Forza when trees on the size of the road where incredibly crisp and there was no smearing or blur on the leaves as you drove past them. This was also noticeable at the 90hz rate in Cyberpunk when looking through the windows in the Downtown area while driving around in your bike. In the battle of ray tracing vs. high refresh, I now understand why so many people advocate for refresh rate as the impact on image quality is amazing.
Lastly, the only negative in my review, since I do love this monitor, is the packaging. When the monitor arrived, it was nicely packed but there was no peel of protection on the screen itself. The screen enclosure was enveloped in a foamy wrap but the screen itself did not have any sort of plastic covering as you see on TVs when you open them. It is for this reason that I believe a small scratch did exist on the screen which I only discovered after about 3-4 days when on a sunny Saturday morning the light from an open window on a powered down monitor revealed the flaw. As you can see from my two screenshots, you cannot see the scratch when the monitor is on (and believe, I have tried everything to catch it). So, since e-waste is bad, I won't be returning the monitor as I honestly cannot tell when using it. But, if you are the type of person who this would bother, make sure you use a small flashlight or similar to inspect the screen when you first get it.
In closing, this is a great monitor worthy of 5 stars. The colors, brightness and 144hz screen all combine to make it a treat for the eyes and a great experience for gaming . I highly recommended it and believe that if you are coming from 1440p and 60hz, you will love it.

As long as there are no uprising issues, I would rate this (from S-tier (best) to F tier (worst) as an A- or B+ based on specs, quality, and pricing. I played Hell Divers 2 on 4K ultra settings with a 3080ti getting about 80-90 fps and I was very happy with the way the monitor looked. Didn’t see any flickering ,dead pixels, or dim spots. Very enjoyable experience.
If I had to criticize, I would like speakers and a remote! I would also like a function to have two different rgb colors going at the same time. (If you can do that someone please tell me how!) I think it would be cool to do a blue and red as a star wars theme to go with a starwars lightsaber back ground!
Disclaimer: I have no opinions on the stand that comes with the monitor, I use an arm clamp on my desk to maximize space.

However, my excitement soon turned into disappointment as the monitor started showing signs of malfunction after just four months of use. Black lines began to plague the bottom 30% of the screen, progressively worsening with each passing day. This defect not only hindered my viewing experience but also rendered the monitor practically unusable for tasks requiring precise visual clarity.
What adds salt to the wound is the fact that I'm not alone in facing this issue. A colleague who purchased the same monitor around the same time as I did encountered a similar fate, further underscoring the unacceptable lack of longevity in this product.
While the LG 32GR93U undoubtedly boasts impressive performance when it functions correctly, its premature failure raises serious concerns about its reliability and durability. For a monitor commanding a premium price, such shortcomings are simply unacceptable. As a result, I cannot in good conscience recommend this product to others, and I'm left deeply disappointed in LG's failure to deliver on its promise of quality and longevity.

The biggest surprise was that this monitor has a fan. If you have open back headphones, you will hear it, quite loud, between songs. If you're sitting in silence, you'll hear it, even over the fans from your gaming PC and air purifier. I'd gladly have paid an extra $30 for them to stick a huge chunk of metal on the back as a heatsink and forgo the fan.
As a monitor: It's good. Looks nice. For desktop usage I set it to 175% and everything looks good, and the same size as things do on my 24" UHD monitor that's at 200%. For gaming: I got 1st place in an online matchmaking session.
I haven't decided if I'll return yet. There was nothing on the amazon page indicating that there is a fan.
Edit: turns out mine was defective causing the fan to often run at full speed no matter what. Perhaps another sample would fix this.

Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2024
Or you can spend 1500 dollar for an Alienware 4k monitor with LED display and 240hz refresh rate, but for people like me only play MMO games, this LG monitor is more than enough.
It lists DCI-P3 95% but is actually around 97%. It has good response times. It has the full 48 Gbps HDMI 2.1 speed, so is able to output 4K 144 Hz without resorting to DSC. And it doesn't come with gimmicky bloat, so keeps the price down.
Some people will complain this is not full HDR, but it isn't meant to be. This display produces pristine text, something full HDR can't do due to their abnormal sub-pixel layouts. Although this doesn't have the contrast of full HDR, it does still have the great color gamut.
Best of all there's no worry about screen burn-in. If this is important to you, along with wanting good text, then this monitor is currently the best option available, and will be for some time to come.
The biggest problem for me is the short power cable and the screen uniformity.
The middle of the screen appears whiter than the sides, the color shifts to a grayish tone when viewing a white background. However the grayish tone disappears the moment you view the side from another different angle. It appears to be caused by poor quality control(perhaps on some units). The middle of the screen is bulging out just a little bit which cause the screen to bent outwards just a slight bit hence causing the uneven white.
