    From the perspective of a technology manager, not a gamer.
    I am a CTO who has connected this to a 2018 Mac Mini and use it for both work and personal activities. I also have a mid 2015 MacBookPro which I love for the clarity of its retina display. I run the latest and greatest version of OSX (currently Mojave) on both of these machines. Prior to this purchase, I had the mini hooked up to a 23" 1900 x 1200 Apple Cinema Display circa 2002 (that is not a typo). It was surprisingly good but always made me wish I was looking at retina-quality output.I'm taking the trouble to write this review because I found other people's reviews helpful in my decision to purchase this monitor (LG 27UK650-W 27). I've had it for 2 full work weeks, am extremely happy with it, and have avoided a lot of mistakes by reading other people's reviews. I'm paying it forward.Advice:1) use a DP cable not the HDMI cable; I used this and it worked immediately with no hassle: CHOETECH USB C to DisplayPort Cable 4K@60Hz, USB 3.1 Type C to DisplayPort Cable2) be careful not to touch the front of the panel when unpacking it, moving it, adjusting its height or rotating the display; always do this from the top/bottom or the sides; it's not hard to do this - just be mindful3) know that the display does not have speakers, just a stereo out jack4) download the Onscreen Control app from LG's website; makes it easy to do the adjustments you will make most frequently5) spend a little bit of time learning to use the joystick located underneath the bottom frame so that you can use the built-in Onscreen Control Center. This lets you do more advanced adjustments.6) if you are using VMware Fusion (I run Windows 10 for certain things) you will need to go to the Virtual Machine => Settings => Display panel and deselect "Accelerate 3D Graphics" if you want to go full-screen with it. Otherwise it will be unusable. But you *can* can select "Accelerate 3D Graphics" and use Single Window mode. *** Subsequent correction: if you like you can leave "Accelerate 3D Graphics" selected and increase the amount of Shared Graphics Memory to the recommended amount (for me 1024MB).7) familiarize yourself with how to use MacOS's Spaces (multiple desktops); you won't want to maximize your apps to full-screen; they're just too big. But you still may want to place apps in different desktops.After connecting the DP to USB C adapter, turning on the monitor and powering up the Mac mini, it just worked. I knew I was in a good place when I entered System Preferences => Display and saw the same scaling choices as I see on my MBP. See the first image. The default resolution was too big for me (1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz). The second image shows my current choice (2560 x 1440 @ 60 Hz). Obviously screen resolution is a matter of personal taste; I find this to be the right trade-off between font size and screen real-estate. The text as I type this has the same clarity as my retina display but on a big monitor. I suppose I might decide to shrink the font smaller (3008 x 1692 @ 60 Hz) to get more real-estate. The point is that I have the choice - either one looks great.Other Observations:* Night shift works.* Screen saver / sleep mode works.* You will be surprised by how far away the menu bar at the top of the screen is from many of the apps* As near as I can tell, the display has no dead pixels. Or maybe they're so tiny that I just can't see them.* I don't see the IPS bleed that some people complain about. Both my Windows and my Mac backgrounds are black and I don't perceive bleed. (See two images).* The stand feels sturdy to me.I am not a gamer. I work with text and numbers all day long and my apps look great. Although I am not a graphic designer, I spend a lot of time on images and graphs and they look great to my eyes. I can't comment about the calibration of the display but the colors look good to me.After 2 weeks of extensive use I'm a happy camper. Fingers crossed that the monitor's reliability is as great as its looks.I hope this helps.Just an update: after 6 weeks of using this monitor my view hasn't changed: I continue to love it.Another update: 6 months in and no change to my review. Not a moment's problem with the hardware.

    1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING : DO NOT BUY THIS MONITOR!!!
    Reviewed in India on October 5, 2019
    It seems I've got a bad piece. There is backlight leakage from four different areas around the edges (see the attached image). At first, I tried to ignore it, but after watching 3-4 hours of Netflix, I noticed that light leakage was causing significant obfuscation of visuals in the affected areas. I have now requested a replacement and am hoping I'll get a substitute that is free of any defects. Will post an update about it. Other than light leakage, I am overall borderline satisfied with this piece. 😐

    **UPDATE (10.10.2019)**
    The replacement arrived this morning. And with it, frustration and apprehension. I received a defective piece originally, which got replaced by an even more defective piece 😡 🤬. My mind just cannot grasp how it is possible for LG's Quality Control engineers to miss such defects during the testing phase, unless of course they deliberately ignored these faults. Please take a look at the attached images. The one marked "Monitor No. 2" is what I received in replacement. Even a 5-year old can take one look and tell that something's not right with the panel.

    I wonder if these big MNCs have completely abandoned all Quality Control checks from their operations. And it's not just me complaining; take a look at other monitor reviews on the internet, of not just this brand and model, but others too. Thousands of independent evaluators and users are reporting issues like severe backlight leakage, poor color reproduction, discoloration, and what not. Even Dell, the undisputed king of computer monitors a decade ago, is these days receiving flak from users for poor quality products. Shame on LG, Samsung, Asus, Acer, Dell, and all other manufacturers for selling defective products to unsuspecting customers. While we customers struggle with returns and refunds, they get to sit on their laurels and count our hard-earned money. Not fair. Poor quality control practices are a LOSE-LOSE prospect for everyone. The CUSTOMER loses his faith. The SELLER loses his business. MANUFACTURER loses customers' trust and profits. So, why do it?

    What now? For starters, I am not going to buy LG monitors anymore. Two failed products in a row is my threshold limit. I have neither patience nor money to waste on LG's junk anymore. I am also now totally apprehensive of buying any expensive products at Amazon because I am scared of putting myself through this tedious and uncertain process of returning/replacement/refund again. What if Amazon refuses to replace or return a defective product in future on some technicality in its policy? I'm starting to see disconcerting risk in it now. After many years, I am forced to reminisce the good old days when one could walk into a store; see a thing for what it is, touch it, feel it, use it; and if satisfied, order one for the household. In an email, I have appealed to Amazon to disclose return rates and/or other relevant data on product pages to enable customers to make informed decisions. This can also shame errant manufacturers into tightening their Quality Control checks. I hope Amazon's management will initiate positive and effective action in customers' interest.

    I have requested for a return of this defective monitor. As and when the process is completed and I have received my funds, I will post a final update. Until then, 🙋‍♂️.
