What customers say about "Display"
LG 29WK600-W UltraWide WFHD IPS Monitor
  • The colours were good and vibrant due to the IPS panel used.
  • It has a crisp image with vibrant colors, and with PPI of 96 it is slightly better than an 24 inch FHD monitor with 91 PPI.
  • IPS screen with accurate colours, large enough for basic video/photo editing, great for gaming.
  • Brightness and sharpness of fonts makes it so much easier on my eyes and I don't feel tired at the end of a long day.
  • Only downside of the monitor would be that it's not curved, but honestly not a big deal at all.

What customers say about "Features"
LG 29WK600-W UltraWide WFHD IPS Monitor
  • The inclusion of FreeSync (40-75hz range over HDMI) was useful as I have an AMD card.
  • Nvidia has just added support for freesync this works without any problems.
  • You can tilt the monitor and it works fine on my desk but you might need a monitor stand if it is too low for you.
  • HDR is a pointless effect and just cranks the brightness to max and makes a few other smaller changes.
  • The speakers, they are very tiny and almost completely lack bass. Disappointing feature.

What customers say about "Connectivity"
LG 29WK600-W UltraWide WFHD IPS Monitor
  • It supports HDMI 2.0 and DP 1.2 so that's good.
  • Good solid display connected with my MacBook Pro using a displayport to TB3 cable.
  • I connected via HDMI cable and many others - all rated at 4K.
  • Hooking it up with the HDMI with my Macbook pro 13 inch 2015 and works good.
  • Has a useful 3.5mm port for my speakers, so I don't mesh them to system unit.
