Wow, such good production quality for such a small channel, i see potential, Subbed

Tbh, Wasnt expecting much from this video, but i thought wrong, thankyou! And I will now be getting this monitor!

Love how in depth you went with this review! A lot of people review monitors really fast and I don't feel like I ever get enough info, not the case with you. Subbed.

great review. most helpful one I've found so far, really appreciate you putting in the time to make this

Clicked on the first link for this monitor for a general overview, did not expect this fantastic comprehensive review. Definitely subbed. Great job.

Dude, this is an awesome review. Not flashy or anything but so informative. I love that you talk about the real life ergonomics of it whereas others usually just talk specs. Thanks for covering everything.

this fucking kid just made the best review from a monitor ever, nice job

HDMI 1.4, DP 1.2

Bro, you are like the only person on KZfaq I could find that had the exact monitor I was looking for! Everyone else has some other model and it's just frustrating. Major props bro.

Appreciated all the info! Great Vid!

The speakers are output, audio comes from either the HDMI or displayport. I plugged external speakers into the jack to get the Digital audio out to them instead of lugging them into the PC.

Fantastic video. Very in depth and not only explained from a professional and critical point-of-view, but also an enthusiast/consumer point-of-view.

I already own one of these and wanted to know more about it, this answered all my questions. Thank you. Nice work.

One of the better reviews of this monitor I've seen. Well done! I'm buying one tomorrow.

Very good review man! You covered pretty much everything on this monitor and had me sold. I have a Asus VG248QE 144hz 24" for faster paced FPS games, and then I bought one of these for the extra screen space and productivity.

Solid review keep up the good work. I was thinking of going with this monitor instead on my x2 25in lg's uw's. This review has swayed me to do so, and sell the 25in's. May even go with two....... Again good job.

Very good review ! Just bought one of it ! you cleared a lot of my doubts ! Thank you

Awesome Review! very comprehensive! Keep up the great work!

Started watching the video and immediately started picking at things. Then... I started listening to you. And thank you, Thank you for being one of the few KZfaq Tech Reviewers that actually reviews the product from a consumers perspective and makes mention of the specifications and design qualities that us, the tech community, actually care about. SUBBED!!!

This video is really well made for such a small channel, good work.

Nice video you made there. Loads of information well presented. I think I'll buy one of those. Greetings from Germany.

details, perspectives, visually satisfying, multiple useful analytics. yeah, i'm talking about your review, not only the Screen itself. Very good job! Most useful one I can find on this monitor

Good job mate keep up the reviews

I just ordered this exact monitor. Thanks for the review!

Thanks, just bought one because of this review. Was looking for a review.

This really is a great review for such a small channel. Great job man I'm buying this.

Thanks for this man! Really going to be considering this monitor.

Wow! Thanks bro! Nice quality! Good luck with channel.

Nice review man you got 1more subscriber for this thanks!

Amazing review, subbed!

I watched this video and I'm surprised the quality in the review and the video itself, you have a new follower :)

This was a really good, in-depth review. Thanks.

great review, thank you for mentioning PBP, ive been looking forever for whether this model supports pbp and its not even mentioned on LG, thank you!

Picking this up in a lightning deal for £209. Thanks for the review; very informative.

Phenomenal review, subbed

Hello. Which video entries does the monitor have? Some sites say it's only HDMI, some images show a DVI entry, and other sites also claim that it has Display Port.

This video was actually surprisingly helpful. For only 218 subs, you're kicking some butt! Great video bud

Great review! Thanks!

Nice review man! pretty in-depth. Definitely considering this monitor.

Very detailed review, subbed :)

Your latest reviews are great, helped me to decide what to buy/not to buy. Definitely subscribed and thumbs up ;)

I don't mind the power brick being external, it's probably helped with the speakers not picking up a ground loop from the power supply, and it's hidden behind my desk so hasn't been a problem. Do love this monitor, got used to ultrawide within a night and don't think I could easily go back to regular 16:9. Films are a dream to watch, gaming is brilliant, the gtx 970 can easily cope with the ultrawide 1080p resolution in a tonne of games, many games do actually support this resolution which I was surprised by and overall, for 250 quid, absolute bargain. Been wanting an ultrawide monitor since they were first announced in something like 2011 and this has finally been worthwhile to get one. Great video by the way.

Thanks for the review. I shortlisted this monitor to buy but got stuck with 2 queries. 1) Is there a way we can connect external speakers if we dont like the inbuilt. 2) does this support chromecast ? .. If any has answer, please let me know

Great review thank you!

Thanks dude I had my Doubts about this Monitor but after watching your Review I know it'll be a great choice :)

Had to leave a comment just to say you did an awesome review!!

great review keep up the good work definitely going to buy this

I just picked this monitor up yesterday for $199 at Fry's electronics after a price match from B&H. I purchased it thanks to this review, I have it paired with an RX580 and the Freesync is legit on this monitor, it dropped to like 48 fps at one point in an intense scene and it felt buttery smooth, thanks for this! Great video, you've earned a new subscriber my friend.

Keep the good work up man, you've got potential!!!

Nice video sir! I do believe I'm going to order one right now.

awesome review. thanks dude.

I'm about to purchase one of these. should I run this on a dp cable or hdmi? any limitations regarding either concerning picture quality?

this might be a stupid question but can you put PC speakers to this monitor? I was scared for a sec when you said it was only the monitor speakers? I got a PS4 pro and the gaming PC and looking for a good monitor but I don't want a monitor that cant even connect speakers so please someone help me with this question

Do you guys think I should buy one of these and switch the cable between pc and Xbox or have 2 or 3 £75 pound budget monitors ?

Also quickly, color accuracy is very important to me as I work with a few graphics. Would this suffice?

Nice video bro! I just ordered one like this. Keep doing these nice, good quality videos! subscribed

Really good Quality Preview. Hope to see more from you.

you think its possible for me to get it here in sweden ? or send it from amazon to sweden ?

i have spend more then two days for try to decide wich size i need - 29 or 34. I feel like i can trast you, y help me decide, and im gonna buy 29' and also save a lot of cash. Thank you kindly!

I'm just wondering if when you play games or watch videos the sides or tops get cut off. That really bothers me and I was just wondering before I buy it

Have you by chance reviewed the previous iteration of this monitor-- the LG 29Um67? I'd be interested in knowing what your thoughts are on that other monitor as well. I found this video to be very helpful. Thanks!

Very informative. This is certainly the monitor I'll be getting. Thanks a lot :)

Please measure the screen from top to bottom. I want to see if it will sit flush with my current screen

Weight of the monitor without the stand? Curious before I mount it

Very good review, you helped me decide on one.

What is the different between "LG UltraWide Monitor 29" (29UM68)" and "LG IPS Monitor 29" (29UM57)"

On the site it says you have to use Display port for the freesync.

o you know the difference of LG 29UM68-P and LG 29UM68? TKS

Great review. You definitely deserve more subs, way more!

great review man...keep it up

hello, this monitor have flicker Free? for vision safe?

Great video, man!

Awesome review man!

Just found your channel. Really liked the video. Subscribed and will be looking out for more content.

Great Video! Was impressed. Two questions....What is the video playing back in a loop? Have you tried a console on it?

I just bought one of these, can't wait for it to be delivered. Excellent review, subbed :)

Great review!

Very cool review dude Keep it up Cheers

Great content, subbed!

I now run 1920x1080 panel with a GTX 1050ti which feeds it at 60fps alright, would this gfx card be enough for this 2560x1080 panel?

with display port you get 75 with nvidia gpu right?

Excellent review keep it up! wish you had played some games and movie trailers to show a better perspective!

Can anyone recommend the optimal picture settings for this monitor? I just bought it today. Thank you.

Cool video! Thank you!

Nice review, thinking about getting this, what's the input lag?

How is the split screen for gaming? For instance if I'd like to play a game on one side while having other tabs such as chrome open on the other side. Great video by the way!

Well, ended up buying this monitor, since it was on a heavy sale here in my country. Compared to a 6-years old Samsung 23" 1ms LED display, here are the pros/cons for those who want one more opinion: Pros - the extra area is really helpful from minute one - IPS wider angles of vision are helpful sometimes - vibrant colors (including whites AND blacks) - excellent practical menu - VESA holes - good stand - good sound actually - 75 Hz on Display Port even with Nvidia Graphics (haven't tested yet) - mine isn't showing any dead pixel or light bleed so far Cons - the actual screen is actually a tiny bit smaller in height than a Samsung 23" widescreen - the upper and side bezels are "printed" on the screen, they're not made of plastic - the VESA holes are 75mm, if you have a 100-75mm mount it may interfere with the upper HDMI port and the Display Port - it has a tiny little bit of ghosting if you're reeeeally looking for it, but you'll never notice ingame; on the other hand, it doesn't have other image artifacts that my old one had Overall, it's a safe bet to change your old 23" LED monitor for it, no question about that, but the main selling point IMO is price + ultrawide. If you're looking for 120+ Hz or is coming from a 27" widescreen, I think the widescreen and the IPS alone won't please you.

Best review. I will buy one. Thanks from Brazil

Very good review, video quality, and run down on these truly delightful monitors. For no real good reason aside from "just because," I am running a pair of these LG-29UM68-Ps off of an Nvidia 1050ti and I haven't noticed any blurring or discoloration and the image quality is crisp and clear. IPS offers brightness and clarity not seen on the older TFT displays. One is on Display Port and the other HDMI. Full, boarderless, widescreen blu-ray rips look fantastic with all the clarity, detail, and no obnoxious boarders. Mainly I have found that they are good for enlarging text for easier reading, and a bit of gaming and have yet to do anything taxing such as video editing or productivity with them. Though it could pass in a single display setup, it is still better in a dual display configuration. People by monitors for the display, not the speakers so who cares if they are crappy. Yes, I would purchase these monitors again and recommend them for others looking for quality display.

Great video and review!

Do you write a script for your videos?

When the monitor is running through the repeated 3d sequence, it almost looks as it there is some motion blur (albeit minimal), is this just how it comes across on the camera or have you noticed this when gaming at all?

Best regards mate, really nice review

I've been running this monitor at 60hz for months now because I thought the 75hz option was locked to 1024x768 resolution. It turns out that you just need to enable Freesync in the OSD options menu, then the 75hz refresh rate becomes an option in your settings. Awesome review by the way, it felt like I was listening to a human!

Should I get this or the 34"? Wondering what would be more immersive.

I know some people ask about his so it is worth mentioning that using CRU, my monitor is happily running Freesync from 30-80hz. No issues or frame skipping as far as I can tell. This is running on an RX470 via displayport of course.

so if you wanna connect your radeon r9 380x which supports freesync to this which cable should you buy?

Did u maybe compare this one to 34" version? Would a 34" screen be a bit too much for that resolution? What do you think? And it is double the money for 5" more so... btw its 75x75mm VESA on 29", on 34" its 100x100.

i think you just convinced me tp buy this (: very very good review, subbed, Keep doing what you do!

Good info mate !
