The beauty of the big screen - LG 27UD68 Ultra HD 4K display test experience report

Thank you very much for your great love and gave me a chance to use the 4K monitor. Hong Kong really, 4K monitor I have always wanted to use, but in the bag shy, whenever you see the mother recommended certain display specials, can only be blind and can not buy, it is sad. This time can get 4K display through the public measurement platform, really appreciate ~~~~~ for the convenience of writing, the following LG 4K refers to the LG 27UD68. In addition, the text writing and picture editing of this article are all done on the LG 4K display.

Brief directory

First, the appearance of the United States

Second, the comparison knows the truth - LG 4K contrast experience

Third, loved to know the wine 4K use daily

Fourth, only for better me some of my views

================================================== ===

First, the appearance of the United States

It is really exciting to get this test, and learn that this time the test products will go home through SF Express and have been concerned about logistics information. The SF land transportation is really good. From Beijing to Guangzhou, it takes about 3 days. After getting the product, the first reaction was - how did the aunt's classic "value" seal glue it? And this product has no packaging, relying solely on LG 4K's original packaging protection, isn’t the mother not worried about my violent delivery?

LG 4K packaging using color box packaging, this package is doing quite well. The side of the outer packaging is the technical introduction of the display, IPS 4K, multi-color domain support, AMD tear-resistant technical support has introduced.

The other side of the package is production information. This product has been in production since April 2016. It has been around two months ago and is relatively new. If there is no other warranty information, the warranty period can only be based on this production date (launched).

101 happy service is LG's service commitment, 1 minute to complete the appointment, on-site 0 waiting time, 1 processing completed. It sounds like it sounds good, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to try it.

There is a shock-proof foam inside the monitor, which can do a good shockproof effect. The display is expensive, and it is necessary to do enough shockproof measures.

Display accessories are more than enough, HDMI cable, DP cable, bracket, base, power cord, manual, warranty card, test report, CD-ROM, almost all have.

This is a display quality assurance report. This report was the first time I saw it. Previous monitors have not seen this report yet. According to the report, the ΔE of the LG 4K display is less than 3, and the ΔE value of this class has reached the standard of professional-grade displays. Of course, you must turn on the monitor's professional color switch to make ΔE less than 3.

The LG 4K uses an external power supply design and the power transformer is separated from the display. The advantage of this design is that the monitor can be made thinner. The disadvantage is that the external power transformer is a bit large, and Virgo estimates are unacceptable.

The supplied power cord is a 30.75 square cord, and the standard power cord is the same as the power cord used by the host computer.

HDMI cable and DP cable. The display specifier recommends users to use the supplied video cable. It is estimated that the quality of the cable is not too bad. The standard of the cable should be HDMI 2.0 or DP 1.2.

Parts list, look at the parts table, not afraid of the product has been lost.

Monitor stands have anti-slip mats.

The stent is a wire drawing process. Although not very smooth, it is very textured.

Bracket installation is not very convenient and requires a screwdriver for installation. LG 4K installation requires the use of tools rather than tools-free displays, which are somewhat complicated. It is estimated that the display is heavy and it must be tightened before installing the screws.

The bracket fastening screws are toolless and can be tightened by hand.

The protective cover is closed directly on OK. If it is not needed, it can be installed without affecting its use.

Cable clips, use everyone to understand, not elaborate here.

The left is the LG 4K monitor, the right is the ViewSonic VG2433Smh, ViewSonic VG2433Smh is a 23.6-inch LED, according to the official introduction, the display shows sRGB color gamut is greater than 99%, and AdobeRGB is greater than 80%, ΔE is less than 3, the price is only 1299 yuan. WOW, compared with LG 4K, ViewSonic VG2433Smh looks more close to the people. But this is only a parameter comparison, but also need to look at the actual comparison to see the real chapter.

LG 4K uses a narrow frame design, although not a real narrow frame, but the overall frame thickness is thinner than ViewSonic.

LG 4K display due to the use of external power supply design, the display thickness of only 16.28mm, the thickness of touching.

ViewSonic is 24mm, slightly thicker than LG 4K.

Display video interface, dual HDMI + DP interface, DVI and 4K missed, in order to 4K, or upgrade it ~~~~

The monitor supports wall hangings.

The attached DP line has a detail that does a good job, that is, the DP line has a snap-in position, which can be pulled out by pressing the clip with a little force.

Second, the comparison knows the truth - LG 4K contrast experience

My comparison review added ViewSonic VG2433Smh. In the video comparison, both monitors were tuned to the built-in cinema mode, and the monitors were all on for more than one hour. The pictures shown were uploaded without any processing.

The LG monitor is on the left and ViewSonic is on the right. Play the video for the Terrorist Trail.

Since Auntie's pictures have been zoomed, a picture shows the difference between the two monitors may not see the difference between the two, I here alone shows two monitors playing video.

After several rounds of video comparison, LG monitors play video, some of the dark parts will become bright, so the overall picture looks brighter, dark details are also seen more clearly. Due to the fact that ViewSonic has no relevant skills, the shadows appear darker and some of the details are lost. Well, after comparing the videos, let's look at the comparison of still pictures.

If the game supports 4K, try to play the game in 4K, but your graphics card must be strong enough.

The contrast between the two games.

Comparing static images, the overall picture of the LG monitor is brighter, while ViewSonic is less whitened.

With LG 4K vs. ViewSonic VG2433Smh seems to be a little bully, but the floor of the pig can get on the hand of the display is also this Taiwan, we will be about it.

PK ViewSonic VG2433Smh Ease of use: The LG 4K screen control is a joystick design, as long as users who have used Nokia's mobile phone are familiar with the joystick control (not used? Well, I accidentally revealed the age), even if Not used, just a few more will be skilled, the operation is not difficult. While ViewSonic VG2433Smh is a traditional physical button design, it is difficult to get started, but the odds are high. Therefore, in terms of ease of use, LG 4K is slightly better.

PK ViewSonic VG2433Smh display effect: In fact, in contrast, the two display effect is still relatively obvious, LG 4K screen brightness is slightly brighter than ViewSonic VG2433Smh, so look at the picture slightly white, and ViewSonic VG2433Smh the color temperature is warmer. Therefore, LG 4K display part of the dark details is better than ViewSonic VG2433Smh.

PK ViewSonic VG2433Smh Blu-ray: ViewSonic VG2433Smh has a Blu-ray filter function, and LG 4K also has this skill. The Blu-ray filter of ViewSonic VG2433Smh can be adjusted independently, LG 4K can not be adjusted alone, can only be called in the reading mode. It is estimated that engineers believe that using Blu-ray filter in reading mode can reduce blue light, while turning on Blu-ray filter in other modes will affect the user's use (the screen will turn yellow after filtering blue light). According to my experience, after the Blu-ray filter is turned on, it will feel uncomfortable at first, and after a period of time, it will gradually adapt and eventually become accustomed to it.

Three, loved to know the Liquor LG 4K use daily

LG 4K is my first 4K monitor. It has been using 1080P before. Now it is a bit flattered to upgrade to 4K. Before using the 4K monitor, some of the 4K monitor's daily use notes and 4K usage feelings have been learned through other means. However, only used to know what is true and what is empty talk. Well, talk about some of my daily use of 4K monitors.

The feeling of 4K big screen is really different and it's awesome. Unfortunately, the font size is too small to adjust the font before it can be used normally.

The font has shrunk too small, bad reviews.

The monitor's screen control interface. LG 4K is a single-handle operation mode that is easy to use.

One of the menu bar is to enter the RTS game mode directly.


LG's technical background is still very sharp, LG 4K can use LG's own two software, one is Dual Controller, one is On Screen Control.

Dual Controller is a software that is transmitted within the LAN, but this software does not seem to be practical.

This is the screen control software. The utility of this software is very good. Why? I tried floor hogs, before buying a certain brand of 899 yuan display, spent less than a year, the physical key failure, every time adjusting the total screen fee is very strong. The longer the monitor is used, the more likely the screen's physical buttons are to become problematic. Through the software control screen, even if the physical button fails in the future, it is not afraid to adjust the screen parameters.

4K screen window is a bit annoying, On Screen Control provides a split window function. How to play? Join You want to enter text while viewing the web page, open the browser and WORD file, then open On Screen Control, click Screen Split, and then select the window layout you want. At this point, the software automatically divides the browser and WORD into specific areas. If you think that WORD is not good on the right side, directly pull the WORD window to the left, the software will automatically enlarge the WORD window and fill a specific area.

On Screen Control's setup options allow software adjustments. The text font size is of good practicality. WIN7 comes with a text adjustment of only 150%, but the software can adjust the font to 250%, which is very powerful.

WIN7 support for 4K screen is not very good, WIN10 has improved in this regard.

Increasing the font size, but some software still only support 1080P, it seems a bit awkward.

=============================================

Fourth, only for better me some of my views

The LG 4K display is really good and really likes it. If you measure the performance of this monitor from the price, the monitor performance is definitely worth the price of 3K2. Compared with the same price display, LG 4K price is a bit expensive, and LG 4K has similar technology display price is lower than the LG 4K, which will undoubtedly divert some users. Of course, you also have precious reason, LG 4K is IPS panel instead of TN panel, 99% sRGB color gamut coverage is not cheap 4K display can be done. And currently through the purchase of LG 4K Jingdong, you can get the bracket and mouse pad, equivalent to hit a discount.

4K screen watching video, indeed cool than 1080P, because the screen becomes larger, the screen has increased, watching video is very lively. As for the game, if there is no strong graphics card, it is not recommended to play in 4K resolution, because 4K resolution is really higher on the graphics card requirements.

If the graphics performance is not enough to support 4K, you can reduce the game to 1080P. If the resolution is reduced to 1080P, the game screen will be slightly rough, and the graininess will be obvious. If the resolution is increased to 4K, the screen will become fine and smooth, with no obvious graininess. So, if possible, choose 4K resolution for games.

like:

1, the screen is big enough to be domineering, upgrade from 1080P to 4K, visual sense of shock first-class;

2, through the software can adjust the monitor, eliminating the need for manual adjustment trouble, but the function has room for further improvement;

3, the whole design is simple, full line sense;

4, black stabilizer, multi-color domain support to meet the needs of different users.

insufficient:

1, the design of the display is biased towards the same, the display personality is not clear enough, for the user to require a more comprehensive fit, but the pursuit of personality users may be a little less adaptable;

2, Blu-ray filter design can only be used in reading mode, other modes can not call the blue filter function;

3, after the DP line can not output audio through the monitor (there may be my setup problem);

4, the price is slightly expensive (OK, I admit I am poor, there is a price bias);

5, external power supply design, Virgo's partner may not be happy
