In the search for a new monitor you have to make many decisions at the present time. In addition to resolution, response time and frequency, ergonomics, technology and image quality also come up, where there are many small and large differences.
For passionate gamers, FHD is slowly becoming too little and even a frequency of 60 Hertz is usually no longer sufficient. So you look for a WQHD monitor (2,560 x 1,440 pixels) with 100 Hertz or even more. Since the devices with IPS panels are usually the higher quality, but also more expensive devices, the choice is limited. However, the LG UltraGear 27GL850-B stands out somehow, as the price seems relatively low and the advertised features are by far not always offered. Therefore the question arises: isn’t this monitor from LG „UltraGear“ only by name or is it worth taking a closer look at the device? We followed this question and want to answer it for you in this test...
