I got the LG 27GX700A-B and love it.

r/OLED_Gamingpositive3

Just set my 27GX700A-B up and I'm blown away. Coming from a 1080p 144Hz IPS monitor and this a whole new level. Loving it so far...

This thing looks OK with factory settings, but I'd recommend applying RTINGS' settings. This thing is GORGEOUS after turning on the Gamer 1 profile...

It’s fascinating how people are complaining in the comments, but no one is actually discussing updating the firmware. That’s the first thing you should do when you get an OLED device these days.

Need to go to LG's partner store and use code EARLYSAVINGS. [https://members.us.lg.com/store/pm/monitors/lg-27gx700a-b-gaming-monitor](https://members.us.lg.com/store/pm/monitors/lg-27gx700a-b-gaming-

What’s the difference between 27GX700A-B & 27GX700A? I just got the B one for 600$

r/OLED_Gamingpositive8

The only difference is the Asus will be glossy and the LG is matte lite. I prefer matte so LG is the way to go.

r/OLED_Gamingneutral2

I’m learning towards the LG.

While both use similar high-performance 4th-gen Tandem OLED panels, the LG typically comes with a shorter, standard one-year warranty.

I just got and am enjoying lg 27gx700a-b. 4th gen woled panel. ... And the stand is nicer and hides cables better.

r/OLED_Gamingpositive1

My 27GX700A-B has a perfect panel.

r/Monitorspositive3

In my opinion, the LG 27GX700A-B has better text clarity than RWBG WOLEDs and 3rd gen QD-OLEDs.

r/Monitorspositive1

The text clarity on the 27gx700a is much, much better.

r/OLED_Gamingpositive1

I have the lg 27gx700a-b and really like it. Some ppl have been having banding issues with it i guess, but mine has no issues.

r/OLED_Gamingpositive1

I like my lg 27gx700a-b. There was some banding initially, but it took a couple of pixel re-freshers and it has been fine since.
