LG 24MP59G-P 24-Inch Gaming Monitor with FreeSync (2017)

Ive had the monitor for 5 days so far and it has been a great upgrade from my 6 year old TN panel.Here are some pros and cons. Pros: -Crisp Image -Nice colors -75hz out of the box -Freesync -No Dead Pixels -No lightbleed -Price Cons: -No Vesa mount -Small amount of Ghosting in Windows and in some games like Skyrim when moving the world map around and League of Legends from what ive noticed when 1ms Motion Blur reduction is turned on. Ive tried to fix it by setting Response time to High/Middle/Low and off but it didnt help. So i keep 1ms MBR off. Other than the small con this is a great monitor.

Theres just one glaring defect with this monitor, that may or may not bother some people. There are faint vertical lines on certain solid colors, mostly on windows blue, lightish blue, orange, yellowish-orange and reddish-orange. So youll see this defect on like the Firefox logo and windows 10 blue icons most. The lines are very faint and vertical. Mostly unnoticeable when playing games. But quite noticeable if you deal with solid colors alot... Its not a deal breaker for me, but it might be for you. Everything else though is perfect. Great viewing angles, great brightness, great contrast right out of the box, great colors, great blacks and whites. Only a faint IPS glow and backlight bleed. Great freesync range 40-75hz, modifiable to 36-75hz for low framerate compensation. Its just somewhat disappointing to see faint vertical lines on certain solid colors. Otherwise, this would have been the perfect monitor. Also changing the refresh rate to 60hz reduces the vertical faint lines a bit more. But I paid for a 75hz monitor!!! Ive decided not to return it. Im getting used to the lines. I dont notice it at all during games. I have seen these faint lines before but much worse on my cheap HP 15.6 inch n3060 laptop screen. That screen was horrible and had faint lines on every single color. LG is better but disappointing that they decided to cut costs somewhere.

This is a great looking monitor. The colors outside the box are top notch. I set it to "Cinema" mode and am very impressed. Out of the box, with no setting changes (Freesync off), the monitor runs at 75hz. I didnt try any game modes as Cinema looks fine and I only play MMOs and RPGs. Dont really care about the response time to much. I would definitely recommend this monitor to those wanting solid performance and great colors on a budget. That said, I can confirm that there is some pixelation on blue tints. For me, it was only at the very bottom of the screen and I had to look for it. It wasnt on all solid blue or any other solid colors, which I used to test dead pixels (have none) and any pixelation. I only saw it while loading a game and letting the intro play out. Again, it was minor and I had to look for it. Other parts of the screen, including the main display area, had no pixelation.

I dont game with it, I do my homework with it. It is connected to my MacBook Air. Works fine but I wish it had a VESA mount option. Now that would be cool. But then it would probably cost allot more $$$ too. The mounting foot thing is kinda sketchy anyway, but it does work "ok". The monitor works fine for anyone out there working on their Masters program as a student, the ​image is clear and looks good.

Very good for the price. On screen controls a little awkward. But I would buy another one.

Have had no issues with it so far despite it having some problems reported. Only thing I do not like about it really is the power switch, its kind of cumbersome trying to turn it off. Other than that its a nice size, good picture, easy to set up. I did have to buy a different cable but that is par for the course I think.
