LG 32GP850-B 32p Nano IPS QHD 165Hz

Product Information

With an LG computer monitor you’ll discover cutting-edge display technology and slim designs, from our dazzling LED and LCD monitors, which offer state-of-the-art display and features. You’ll get a new outlook on life with monitors and other computer monitors from LG. 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). 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. Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Then we move up to the Normal mode at 180Hz. This mode features a 7.52ms average response time, which is marginally improved on the Off mode, and we also see no overshoot here at this refresh rate. The cumulative deviation result, which measures the difference between the monitor's actual response curve and the ideal instant response, is also quite solid at around the 500 mark without much overshoot. This typically indicates good motion clarity.

Note that we turned ‘Smart Energy Saving’ mode off in the OSD before these tests so that brightness and measurements were not impacted. Everything else was at factory defaults to evaluate the out of the box performance. Visit our comprehensive and always up-to-date best gaming monitor buyer’s guide for more displays and information. ConclusionErgonomics Information about the ergonomic functions - height adjustment, swivel angles, tilt angles, etc. VESA mount It's not like it's worse than last year's model - because there was no equivalent last year. The UFO Test guidelines make a minimal difference and still exhibit the red fringing issue. If anything it's the contrast guideline that has the most impact, which does minimize LG's poor contrast ratio, but it's not a massive difference that would radically change our recommendation. Information about the brightness of the screen. It is measured in candela per square metre (cd/m²). Viewing angles like most IPS monitors are great and of course we have the benefit of a flat panel here. Uniformity with my unit was very solid in the middle area and only a slight fall off along the outer edges, this is an above average result. IPS glow was minimal with my unit as well although this will vary from sample to sample so what you experience may be different. However, you really need a VA panel for the best contrast ratios as realistically all IPS panels have a bad contrast ratio. The Samsung Odyssey G7 offers more than twice the contrast ratio of any IPS monitor in this table and that has a noticeable effect on image quality for those that like to game in a dark environment.

Combined with a nice wide color gamut, excellent viewing angles and above average uniformity, along with a functional sRGB mode for those that prefer accuracy. So whether you're gaming or watching videos, the 32GP850 does a fantastic job with a variety of content. Discover a richer, brighter, more detailed online experience. With an in-place switching IPS monitor, you can experience stunning images from any angle. The step up from Normal is Fast. Response times have improved again and now sit at 5.7ms which is very solid, and this is at only a minimal cost to overshoot. As a result, cumulative deviation is lower, now at just 457, and typically this is what we are looking for when assessing overdrive modes. So in short, Fast is better than Normal when gaming at 180Hz and has a marginally clearer image than previous modes even with a small introduction to overshoot. Factory greyscale calibration was a bit wonky on my unit. The color temperature overall was good, with no significant tint in any direction, but adherence to the sRGB gamma curve - or even just flat 2.2 gamma - was wrong. You can see a dip in gamma for the higher parts of the greyscale range, and this hurts deltaE numbers, only leaving us with average results.The screen includes an sRGB preset mode which includes an emulation (or “clamp”) of the smaller sRGB colour space. This can be useful for those wanting to work with standard gamut content and SDR, or just tame the vivid and saturated colours of the native wide gamut. 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 gamma is pretty close to the sRGB curve in this preset mode out of the box. The RGB balance is pretty good and we have an average colour temp across grey shades of 6816k, being slightly too cool. The white point is 6739k leaving a small 4% deviance from the target and again being slightly too cool. This all results in a moderate dE across the greyscale of 2.8. All models are excellent, so the choice between them mainly comes down to your budget and personal preference.

Time to take a look at response time performance, which we tested how we wanted to test it, not how LG said we should. In any case there are four performance modes, ranging from Off to Faster, similar to LG's other monitors. And we're starting here with a look at the Off mode, giving us a look at native panel performance without overdrive. As always this isn't really a mode most gamers would choose to use, but it does show an 8.6ms average response which is pretty decent without any voltage tweaking.Expand your point of view with LG monitors that adapt to the needs of business users, gamers, graphic artists and multimedia enthusiasts alike. Discover computer monitors with slim designs, striking color and life-like motion for an optimal viewing experience. As you get good coverage of both sRGB and DCI-P3 color spaces, and the colors are consistent across the entire screen, you can even use the LG 32GP850 for professional color-critical work.
