LG 27UD58-B 4K IPS Gaming Monitor Review

The LG 27UD58-B is a good 4k IPS gaming monitor with passable picture quality. It has a few gaming-oriented features such as FreeSync and very low input lag for a 60Hz monitor. Motion handling is also good but limited by the relatively low refresh rate. Unfortunately, backlight bleed is bad when viewed in a dark room and the reflection handling isn’t as good as some other monitors when viewed in a bright room.


The LG 27UD58 is a decent monitor for mixed usage. Gaming-oriented features such as FreeSync and the low input lag result in good gaming performance, but the picture quality is only passable. The sides of the image do remain accurate when viewed from up-close due to the wide viewing angles, which is good.



Pros:


– Input lag is very low.


– Solid colors and backgrounds are uniform.


– High resolution is great for multitasking.



Cons:


– Blacks appear gray and blotchy.


– Prominent backlight bleed.



Specifications:


– Size: 27″


– LCD Type: IPS


– Variable Refresh Rate: FreeSync


– Native Refresh Rate: 60 Hz


– Native Resolution: 3840 x 2160
