This LG monitor makes an excellent addition to any desktop setup. The borderless design make is sleek and stylish while being able to fit more screen size and/or additional monitors in less space. Overall I’ve been very pleased with this unit and happy to utilize it in my daily desktop setup.
Display Quality: Top notch, very well made. This monitor utilizes an IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel, which will typically offer better color reproduction and wider viewing angles when compared to other panel types. This means a better picture from more angles and while sitting anywhere around the desk. Boasts full high-def Resolution (1920 x 1080) as would be expected as standard for a 24-inch monitor these days. Provides full viewing ability for most things and sharp visual crispness of images.
Refresh Rate: 100Hz Refresh Rate is excellent for higher paced action sequences as well as gaming. The higher refresh rate results in smoother motion and improved gaming performance with less lag and not glitching. This feature is especially beneficial for gaming or really any application that involves rapid motion and quick moving images.
Borderless Design: As I mentioned at the beginning the review, this borderless or slim bezel design is functional nice and can really enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of the monitor, providing a more immersive viewing experience.
AMD FreeSync: This monitor can utilize AMD freesync which is basically a variable Refresh Rate system designed to reduce screen tearing and stuttering in games by synchronizing the monitor's refresh rate with the graphics card.
Connectivity: This monitor has and HDMI and a VGA Port for connection compatibility with your devices.
Build Materials: materials used in the construction of the monitor are solid, long lasting components.
Value for Money: Considering this monitor's features and functionality I believe its price is very reasonable and offers good value for the money.
Overall this is a great monitor and makes a good addition to any desktop setup whether you’re focused on gaming or productivity, works great for either or both.

I recently purchased this monitor, a 'new' one, from Best Buy because it was guaranteed to be delivered before this weekend. It came so fast, so I was super happy since I needed this monitor for the upcoming virtual lecture meetings over the weekend. But sadly, this happiness turned into disappointment as soon as I opened the box. First, they sent me the 'open-box' item, not a new one. I called them immediately, and now the expected shipment day for the replacement is Jan 22. So I thought, I have no choice but to use this monitor at least for this weekend, and guess what I saw as soon as I turned the monitor on. The screen looks like it is all cracked and damaged. The funny thing is that this box has a label on it, and it says 'condition: excellent. They also sealed this box with tape that says 'inspected.' So Best Buy considers this condition as excellent and inspected, huh? I sometimes consider buying open-box items from Best Buy, but after I got this scam, No thanks. I always check Best Buy first if I want to buy electric appliances, but seriously, you gave me a huge disappointment. And now I have to head somewhere I can buy a monitor urgently tomorrow after work (hopefully I can find one), so thanks, Best Buy, for ruining my Friday and the entire weekend :) And please send me a 'real' new one, not a damaged one next time.

This bare-bones monitor fits my use case perfectly so I love it, but I have a specific use case which I’ll share in a moment. If you are not in this use case, or something close to it, I think you should skip this monitor and invest in a higher quality monitor.

My use case: dual-monitor PC. All of my computers are using multiple-monitors. Some curved, some not-curved, but all of them are 34” and larger. I contend that 34” and above are fantastic for immersive PC gaming, but they all suffer from one problem: they are horrible for anyone that wants to see your screen remotely. Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Remote Assist, basically if you plan on sharing what’s on your monitor for any type of presentation or remote assist sessions the last thing you want to subject the support person to is a 34” or larger screen. Having a 2nd monitor that is 24” solves this problem beautifully. 24” is large enough that you don’t have to squint to read things, but small enough that you don’t overwhelm the person on the other end of the Zoom meeting causing countless scrolling for the other person that just frustrates and annoys and generally slows down the person trying to help you.

As a secondary monitor the LG gets the job done. No 4K, no HDR, no OLED, but it’s IPS so you get a wider degree of viewing and text is sharp and easy to read. Should you choose to buy more than one of these and place them side by side in a dual-monitor setup the thin bezels are great for the illusion that you’re looking at one big monitor instead of two smaller ones.

The monitor even has VGA! VGA! For us super geeks that have server racks in our home, VGA is still the video connector of choice for server manufacturers so this monitor is a good fit for this use case as well.

The monitor is light weight and supports VESA mounting if you don’t want to use the stand. There’s a single joystick style control knob on the rear of the device should you need to make adjustments but out of the box aside from pressing the button to power it on I found no need to adjust anything.

I think that anyone looking for a barebones no frills monitor will be happy with this device.

I'm enjoying my new LG 24" monitor. The color is great and picture is sharp and crisp. My only complaint is that the picture adjustment and on/off controls are quite difficult to navigate. I get a notice at start up that the display resolution is incorrect, but it seems to be impossible to adjust that through the adjustment controls in the monitor. As a result icons and text on my desktop and taskbar are too small. For the rest of the display resolution I have adjusted that through Windows settings, but can't seem to solve the problem of the small icons and text on the desktop and task bar. It seems like LG tried to put too many functions too close together in one small button for the monitor's own adjustment controls and even navigating the functions of that button is difficult. Otherwise a really good monitor for my everyday needs and for watching videos and movies. I don't do gaming.
