LG 27MB85R-B

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Does not automatically wake from sleep.

The panel in this display is nice but if LG cannot be bothered to fix something as obvious as wake from sleep then I cannot recommend this product. I would suggest looking for this panel in a package with better software.

Beautiful panel, terrible assembly and software. I use this display for computer science research, mechanical design/modeling, and high end gaming. Higher refresh would be nice for the gaming but for software development and mechanical design it is...

Does not wake from sleep without manually hitting one of the control buttons on the display. This means every time your computer goes to sleep or boots you will need to push a button on your monitor to wake it. Additionally, if you are using this in a...

Hidden Gem

Just buy this! The QA on this monitor seems much greater than other models using the same panel. LG is the manufacturer on 90% of the QHD monitors on the market, and they seem to have given themselves the better selection of panels. This panel blows...

IPS Panel ; Low IPS Glow/Bleed ; Factory Calibration ; Includes Hardware Calibration Tool ; 8 Bit Panel with professional grade LUT ; Professional Aesthetic ; Full Height/Pivot/Tilt Adjustment ; Good connectivity, including USB 3.0 hub ; QHD ; Best...

Slightly plain looking base to the stand, This is a Pro and Con as the professional aesthetic is appreciated, but I feel they could have stylized the base a little more

Worst experience with Newegg to date

30 guarantee/warranty needs to allow for ship time, and you should make exceptions when its only over by a few days and is causing medical issues... come on, I built nearly my entire new PC on here last year newegg. Appears to show a lack of respect...

Great looking screen. Great picture, and pretty decent calibration capability ; 1440p resolution! Takes a bit of getting used to, but it is awesome ; Only maybe 1 or 2 dead/stuck pixels, but not noticeable 99.99999% of the time... with 1440p, thereare...

Too bright, even on zero brightness... gives me migraines after a while. And it takes time before you fully realize that it is getting worse, not better. But that's just me ; It took 10 days to get here, and I gave it 2-3 weeks for my eyes to adapt,...

Great looking monitor

Took a chance on this as there are barely any reviews on it anywhere, but I am liking it a lot. I only set this system a little over a week ago, and I've only played CS:GO so far, but this screen looks great running it at maxed out settings paired with...

Barely any light bleed at all, IPS glow is very minimal. This being my first IPS panel, I had to search around to see what those were supposed to look like, and this monitor looks great compared to the examples I found ; Came factory calibrated, colors...

I had to turn my brightness all the way down to 1% to not burn my retinas. All good now though so not really a con

This is a Thunderbolt Monitor

This is the replacement Thunderbolt monitor that Apple never made. Updated USB ports and Thunderbolt 2 technology.

They make no mention that this is a Thunderbolt monitor. It is, will use Thunderbolt 2 technology. Will connect the USB 3 hub and use TB port. You can daisy chain other TB monitors or data products off this monitor

have to hunt for drivers for Mac

Exceptional

Judging from the difficulty finding professional and user reviews on this product I suspect there are a lot of people that don't know what they're missing. This is an excellent monitor that I bought primarily for gaming, thought it was time to move up...

IPS Quad HD with exceptional build quality and performance ; Very little light bleed ; Factory Calibrated / hardware calibrator included anyway ; Professional aesthetic ; Tilt, Swivel, Pivot and Height adjustment ; USB passthrough ; Low input lag /...

Slight IPS glow ; New games are difficult to drive even with a gtx 980
