Features

Gaming Gets Real

LG’s UM57 UltraWide monitor immerses you in its panoramic scale, true-to-life color and brilliant clarity. Gamers never sit still – no problem, LG’s IPS screen looks great from virtually every angle. Dynamic Action Sync lets you catch every single moment in real time. And there’s no hiding with LG’s Black Stabilizer, which brightens dark scenes so you can sniff out the enemy. LG UM57 is a gamer’s dream-come true, featuring 3 gamer modes, 2 First-Person-Shooter modes and RT’s pre-set mode.

UltraWide 21:9

The UltraWide 21:9 aspect ratio makes movies and games more immersive than ever. Need to get some work done, too? All of that UltraWide real estate makes it easy to view multiple documents at the same time, so you don't need to flip back and forth between them.

IPS with sRGB Over 99%

IPS (In-Plane Switching) technology enhances the performance of liquid crystal displays. Response times are shortened, color reproduction is improved, and users can now view the screen at virtually any angle.

sRGB is the standard color space of ideal color reproduction. So, with over 99% coverage of the sRGB spectrum, this LG monitor is a great solution for professional photographers, graphic designers or anyone looking for highly accurate color.

*Disclaimer: Color mode conversion between Adobe RGB and sRGB is available on the 'Color Mode' menu.

A Budget Ultra Widescreen that doesn't Cripple Your Wallet!
In a few words, this is a wonderful monitor. I remember when ultra widescreen monitors first started popping up here on Amazon about 2012 but the prices were far beyond what I could hope to afford. Fast forward to recent times and the prices have started to drop a bit. The prices are still a bit steep but when I saw the LG listed for a bargain from a seller because of being an open box, I bought it.If there is one thing I'll complain about right away, it's that LG is vague about the requirements or trouble shooting for using this monitor. I downloaded the manual and skimmed it, but I didn't see anything outstanding. When I hooked up the monitor to my 2009 Mac Pro with it's original GT 120 graphics card (with an anemic 512 Mb of RAM) it worked... sort of. It only pushed out a maximum of 1080 x 1920, no matter what I tried with both the System Preferences and fiddling in the monitor's menu. (The little toggle switch at the bottom is kind of cool -- I had no problem quickly figuring it out since I knew ahead of time where it was located and how it should work). It was deeply annoying as I knew it should all work.After using it like a standard widescreen (stretching the resolution to "fill" the ultra widescreen distorted everything and was too annoying to put up with) since the day it had arrived, after posting to Apple forums requesting advice and finding out there were others with the same problems and even upgrading the aging graphics card to a much more powerful EVGA Geforce GTX 960 with 4 gb of RAM and still not getting joy, I was almost ready to give up on this monitor. Then, ironically, I tried something stupidly simple: I had one HDMI from the Mac Pro to it, and I plugged in a second and brought that down to the second HDMI port on the LG. Suddenly a heavenly chorus sang and the LG revealed it's promised ultra widescreen glory!I remember reading that part of the functionality of this monitor is that it can be used as a split screen, but nowhere was it mentioned that BOTH HDMI ports on the rear need to be plugged in for the monitor to work correctly (at least in my case). So, anyone with an older Mac thinking about buying this monitor, take my advice. Do it, but know that you will need to hook it up with at least two sources that use the HDMI on it to get the full resolution. If you have an older Macbook, you might be able to get away with just using an active mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to take advantage of this monitor with only one cord. I don't know for sure but I did read that anecdotally somewhere in the Apple forums.As for new Macs and MacBooks, a single HDMI should be ample. The same proves for Windows users. There is software for both Mac and Windows at LG's website that can be used to turn this LG monitor into a discrete dual monitor with two computers, each using a port. I've not tried that yet.As for the picture, I'm more than thrilled with it. I'd describe it as being somewhere between standard and retina in terms of resolution. It seems a little better, with crisp lettering and great color reproduction. I am very pleased with this LG monitor but only regret that I didn't figure out how to take full advantage of it till two days ago (hence my long delay in posting a review). My Windows buddy has a 27 inch Samsung he purchased just a year ago at Costco, but I can tell he's intrigued with the possibilities that having this monitor presents. Take it from me, it is WORTH IT.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simply a great screen at a great price
Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2015
This is the most budget friendly monitor in LG's UM (Ultrawide Monitor) series. I wanted to try an ultra-wide monitor for work, and so far this monitor is fitting the bill superbly.

What's great about it:
- Screen real estate, it's a real life/work changer. I was a little skeptical at first, but I needed a new monitor anyways and I was getting tired of switching between tabs and windows. The wide screen means you can comfortably fit two normal fullsize windows side by side.
- Great IPS panel screen. A monitor as wide as this needs accurate colors in all viewing angle and I have no complaints. The screen has the capacity to get really bright and has decent black levels.
- The OSD (on screen display) is actually not at all bad. There's a single knob below the center of the monitor that functions as the menu navigation + power.

Reasons why this is so cheap:
- Only TWO inputs. You see it in the product image, but there are only two HDMI inputs. That's it. No DVI, no Displayport, no VGA. There is a headphone jack, for what I'm assuming is a gaming feature.
- A little shorter in height than I expected. Coming from a 24" 16:9 monitor, I knew I'd lose some vertical real estate but not the two inches that are gone.
- Cost cutting in the stand is obvious, although LG did try to make it acceptably sleek and modern. It's not a terrible base/stand as far as I'm concerned, but it does wobble a bit when I type.

Good to knows:
- I'm running a Displayport > HDMI adapter cable rated at up to 1080p and it produces the image just fine. I was concerned I'd need to get an adapter that supports a higher resolution.
- This monitor is targeted heavily at the budget gamer, as it shows in the various and prominent 'Gaming mode' settings. There are two FPS presets (first-person shooter) and one RTS (real-time strategy) preset.
- Dual Link means you can fill both HDMI ports with a source and the monitor will put them side by side.

If you need more inputs in a monitor, then I'd suggest the next level up (25UM64) which is priced at around ~$100 more for DVI and Displayport.

If you have the budget, then go higher! 29" or higher will make this a total dream monitor.
