Gamers can experience optimized, fast-pace gaming with Dynamic Action Sync. Dynamic Action Sync is a feature that minimizes input lag so the game play in RTS games is more responsive.

Keep visibility even in dark scenes. LG's black stabilizer senses dark scenes and helps make it brighter so that you can find the enemies hiding and waiting to attack your player in the dark.

Set your game mode to optimize and customize your gaming conditions. There are 3 gamer modes, 2 first-person-shooter modes and even a RTS pre-set mode so you can choose the best mode for you and the game you're playing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Problem with Mac Book Air Connected it to a MacBook Air (2017) and everything appears distorted, as if the 16:9 aspect ratio screen is simply stretched sideways to fit the 21:9 aspect ratio. When I go to System preferences--->Displays there is no 2560x1080 option. I have been using another LG ultra wide with the exact same laptop for 2 years, never had such an issue? What is the solution to this problem?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great 1080P IPS Ultrawide Monitor This hits the sweet spot for the size on a 1080P ultrawide. The colors looked great out of the box. I bought this for a recently upgraded computer and I'm very happy with it. Would recommend it for anyone looking to upgrade to 1080P, or to go ultrawide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bought 2 brand new. Both failed within 2 years I bought 2 brand new for a dual monitor setup. Was awesome while they worked. Rarely used maybe 1 hr a day average. Both failed with 2 years right after the 1 year warranty. Extremely disappointed and feel ripped off. I will most likely never buy another LG product :(

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 3 years, working just fine I've had this monitor for 3 years, and it's been working really well. There are *SOME* issues with it: Mainly the stand is a bit obnoxious at times, the monitor can swivel but overall I haven't had any issues. The blesses aren't too bad and the nipple they use for the menus is a lot better than buttons, as well the speakers built in aren't the absolute best but they do get the work done. Pretty good recommendation for the price. Though looking at the reviews, quality control might not be the absolute best.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Headphone Jack Never Worked Ever since I go the monitor, the headphone jack never really worked. It would just clip in and out. I stop using it because I had another setup that worked fine. I'm now trying to revisit the issues and it's even worse now. No sound, only white noise. Other than that, it's fine but it really ruins my use-case since one of the reasons I bought it was for the headphone jack. Arc is also terrible on B7 as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from null This is a really great monitor overall; the aspect ratio is very nice coming from 16:9, the colors are really vibrant, and Freesync does an amazing job of making games look smooth even when my computer can't put out a consistent framerate. The one issue I have with it is that on a fully black screen there's a little unevenness as shown in the photograph, but that doesn't really have any bearing on daily use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth every penny I`ve had this monitor for about 2 weeks now and I got to say I don`t know why I didn`t purchase an ultrawide sooner. This monitor does everything it`s advertised to do. Like the title it`s worth every penny.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent display I am loving it! I use it as my PC monitor and the wide screen is great for dual window use. Superb video! Con: Power button is dead center on the bottom... Kind of a pain with my soundbar and everything else on my desk... have to move it all just to turn the monitor on.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Picture and Performance at a Great Value! I have been using this monitor for roughly 3 weeks for casual gaming and everyday use. I was initially concerned that it might be too small as I was upgrading from a 22" and considering a 27" as well. I couldn't be happier with the size. I feel this is the sweet spot for me. The picture quality is outstanding. The resolution is perfect for the size. Text is crystal clear, colors are incredible, and gaming is great. I can see why people love the ultrawide format. The price point of this monitor also hits a sweet spot for me. I don't think it's possible to get a better monitor for the price point. If you can grab it on sale, do it and don't look back. My only complaint is that the stand is a little wobbly. This is usually not an issue because monitors aren't made to move around. Having a 4 year old who likes to touch everything makes stability much more important for me than it would have been in years past.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Impressive, though... First off, this product is amazing. There is no getting around that. It has all the features that make it perfect for its many possible uses. I purchased it to accomodate my feature film editing bay. It's exactly what I wanted in the width, to be able to juggle several windows simultaneously, create a long workflow timeline, and to go full screen 2.39:1 aspect ratio to see how the film plays out. As many know, built-in speakers are not grande. Indeed, I have my computer connected to a full surround sound rig in which to edit sound. But I have to admit, the built-in speakers have come in more than helpful than I could have possibly imagined. They're small wattage, and aren't close to audiophile specs, but helpful nonetheless. The interconnectivity has been great. HDMI, USB-C, and DisplayPort was great. I had a bit of trouble with my Mac deciding to make trouble when I had my dual displays connected, and HDMI causing the screen to go blank when the resolution was not set correctly (I am not a Mac fan... le sigh). But this monitor's capability of the separate simultaneous inputs helped me make a workaround that got it back to exactly the way I wanted it to work. I'm so thankful for that. Every time the optimum resolution is not set properly or screen refresh frequency is off, there is a handy on-screen notification so you can optimize its capabilities. The only drawback I will mention is not the monitor's fault, and is due to my inexperience with ultrawide screens. I now know that a curved monitor would have been the best choice. The flat screen at this size (29") is not bad, but even at this size, could be a bit more helpful if slightly curved. When I was shopping, I was looking at ultrawides up to 34", I think those would be even more important to get curved. I find myself moving my body to the left or right when I have windows to the far edges so that the windows are facing my directly because of the flat nature of the screen. That being said, I did not find many curved (if any, now that I recall) ultrawide screens at this size. And this one has been everything I wanted and more. I highly suggest this screen for people looking for the extra benefits of an ultrawide: gamers stock brokers filmmakers multi-simultaneous-window users

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best monitor I have had up until now I admit that when I first ordered this, I was a bit hesitant if this would be better than having two screens instead of one. However, I love it. It takes up less space on the desk, and at the same time I have space for 3 word docs side by side at the same time. Gamewise, I dont have the highest demands, but this is very good. When I play BF4, it nevers slurs the picture. For the price, it find this to be a highly recommendable product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Monitor Chose this rather than a 4k because of the value to dollar ratio. Not dissapointed, it is a clear one up from the 1080 monitors I had before. Takes up less desk space than two monitors and using the features in the software that you can download you can still have what is effectively dual screens, this feature works well and exactly how you would expect it too. Overall very pleased with display, feature set, size, and easy to assemble as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product for a great price! I have bought this item just less than a month ago and so far I have run into no problems with it. I ran some pixel tests and it came with no dead pixels at all. It is a great UltraWide monitor and is a great piece of tech for gaming. Very clear image and lively colors add to the gaming experience immensely! Access to the monitor menu is cleverly designed thus making it easy to play with the monitor settings. I would recommend this product to everyone!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good wide screen monitor I bought this ultra wide monitor last month at BestBuy.com. It was on sale, compared to other similar monitors for its features. I wanted a larger screen to view my stuff, such as spreadsheets, but I ended up using only the 'original' aspect ratio instead of the 'full screen', which stretched out the view too much for me. Plus, I wanted to use the speakers of this monitor but my MacBook Air won't allow it. Sigh. Overall, it's a functional monitor for its price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Just What I Wanted. Been having this monitor for about two weeks and it have served me much more than any 24" monitor i have. 29" is just perfect and the quality of the picture, that shaprness. Just flawless as i have been hoping.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great display for a good price I really love the display. Good quality and not too expensive. Beware though that there is undeed a thunderbolt port to hook up your 2016-2017 MBP to but it does not provide a charge. The mbp clearly says that it is connected but not charging (the battery% also drops). It was confirmed by LG that it can only charge something like a phone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great until it stopped working Worked great for 2 years... until suddenly picture disappeared altogether. Worked perfectly fine one day, no picture the next. Backlight would turn on when connected to computer, and speakers would even work, but no picture would show. Seems like some other reviewers have had similar issues, but it looked like it was right out of the box for them. Tried multiple computers/laptops to determine if it were an issue with the computer, but same issue persisted regardless. Using the button on the bottom of the laptop would not even bring a menu up. Seems like the monitor bricked itself. Seeing as I am outside of the warranty period, I am sure that I will get no support from LG. Pretty disappointed with the quality and will not be purchasing another monitor from LG.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Never going back Ultrawides have been in my scope of view for quite a long time now. I really wanted the workflow of two screen and ultrawides give this. Accompanying with the 29UM69G-B is a very usefull splitscreen application which you can use to divide workspace over the screen. During music creation or programming I use a lot of desktop space, and a regular size screen would just be to small. Aside from the added comfort in workflow, also gaming or watching movies (that support the screen ratio) is a very great experience. Overall I am very pleased by the usefullness and the quality of LG's screen. It comes calibrated from the factory an I think for it's price you will not get any better screens. If a game or video doesn't have support for ultrawide, the sides will be black bars. In my personal experience I do not notice these and I am not bothered by these. 75hz is also a major + for playing smooth games (if you got a high-end videocard to keep up with the framerendering).
