I don't usually say awesome Got'a make an exception. Awesome. I am visually impaired, and need a huge super sharp monitor to have any chance of it being useful in combination with my screen magnification software (Zooomtext). I was using a 1080p HD Hanns-G 30" monitor that, from the beginning, seemed washed out a blurry. I had always chalked that up to over-sizing the monitor and lack of better resolution. So, when that monitor began to crap out, I bought a highly rated 28" 4K Samsung monitor. It was a little better, but not much, and was still in 1080p HD. I took my computer to my local PC tech with the intent of upgrading the video card. Something that would be compatible with 4K UHD. He assured me it would not make any difference, and that in his opinion the image was already very sharp. He said I was stuck with that because it was my Zoomtext software and not the resolution of the monitor, or the signal being sent by the computer. So, I figured I should return the expensive 4K UHD monitor, and look for the biggest 1080p HD monitor I could find at a reasonable price. I picked this LG 32MA68HY-P for it's more glossy screen which I know is better for my bad vision. Other factors were the great reviews, the price, the multitudes of connections, and the fact that the connections are easy to see and access being flush on the back of the monitor rather than the usual practice of upside down and vertical where you can't see them or get to them without being a contortionist. I also really like the onscreen control set up which is by far the easiest,most ergonomic, and intuitive I've ever seen. This monitor also has a setting for "weak color vision". Again, for someone with central vision blindness, my color vision stinks, and this setting does seem to help a little. Other low vision features include100 x 200 VESA mounting capability (so I can put it on a desk mount swingarm to get the screen right up to my nose), and blue reduction reader more (so far I have to found that to be useful). My one complaint so far? For some reason the visible portion of the screen stops 1/2" to 3/4" from the bezel, reducing the effective screen size from 31.5" diagonal to 29" diagonal. I sure hope this is just an adjustment issue that I can't find in the owner's manual. I otherwise love this monitor, and I'd be really disappointed to find out this problem is either normal or a defect requiring it to be returned.
Update. The problem with the "black border" turned out to be a corrupted video card in my computer. Solid 5 stars. Best monitor ever! Again, if you are visually impaired, seriously consider this monitor. I'll update again if I do have any problems.

$200 for a 32-Inch IPS Monitor???
Can you believe this?? Wasn't it just a couple years ago, when a 1080p monitor of this size would cost at least $400? Not only is this monitor HALF the price, but it includes with it all the 2016 goodies, like updated connection ports, and the goodness that is LG IPS technology. Granted, this is not the same quality as LG's other premium panels, but for everyday use, such as emails, spreadsheet, surfing the net, videos/movies, etc., then this is an excellent monitor for its price. To be honest, at this size and resolution, I could make out the jagged edges of the fonts and other pixels, even after I used Windows 10's font optimization program. Monitors are different from TVs - you are sitting about two feet away from the screen, as opposed to at least five/six feet away, so for TVs, a 1080p screen can look great even up to 50 inches. However, with monitors, in my honest opinion 32 inches is the max you would want to go for 1080p resolution(1920 x 1080 pixels).To give you an example of what a great deal this is, LG's other 32-inch monitor, the LG 32MP58HQ-P 32-Inch IPS Monitor with Screen Split, does NOT have a Displayport connection, and costs $50 more! Yet it has all of the features of that monitor, like the split screen feature where you can have multiple windows open on the screen at the same time. For example, you can have up to four programs in a four-way mode, like an Internet browser, a spreadsheet, email, and a movie! Talk about multi-tasking! I also like the reader mode, which dims down the blue light output, masking the monitor with a warmer hue that reduces eye strain.However, this would not be a good monitor for photo and video editing, since it can only display 72% of the sRGB gamut, which most monitors can display 99%. I would also say that contrast, brightness, and viewing angles are average as well - on par with LCD monitors of a few years ago, and not as good as the IPS panels that costs $100 or more. Also, please note that this monitor does not include speakers, but you can output to your headphones or speakers.However, taking into consideration the price and overall features, to me this is a no-brainer deal. $200 for a 32-inch monitor is almost unheard of. If you are looking for a cheap option, this has to be at the top of your list.**UPDATE: Someone asked me about gaming monitors. I would recommend these:Acer GN246HL Bbid 24-Inch 3D Gaming Display (144Hz Refresh Rate)ASUS VG278HV Full HD 1920x1080 144Hz 1MS HDMI DVI Gaming Monitor 27" Screen LCD MonitorBenQ XL2720Z 144Hz 1ms 27 inch Gaming Monitor with High Resolution Best for CS:GO Battlefield eSportYou can also search for 144 gaming monitor on the Amazon search bar.**
