What People Are Saying

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great monitor for daily use, mediocre for gaming Excellent monitor on 4K, HDR10, 31.5 screen size and Free Sync is a plus. However, it doesn't give a jaw-dropping performance on gaming compared to the price you pay for.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great monitor but a lot of work Great monitor. The combination of features and price is very good. I’m mainly using this for PC gaming. The monitor has such a range of settings and option that it’s both a good and bad thing because IMO it complicates the setup, I don’t think many customers would be able to navigate through it all and end up with the best that this is capable of doing. HDR has it’s own challenges some of which are perhaps due to Windows and not the display. The product design is very nice. The stand is sturdy and looks good and the thin bezel around the screen looks great. The supplied HDMI cable is not capable of carrying 2160p 30hz 8-bit. Using the DisplayPort cable is better because it delivers 60hz and 10-bit color. This isn’t described in any of the manual or guide and is really important for getting the best from the screen. Both cables are quire short and barely reach around a desk to the PC. Installing the driver from the disc included or downloaded from LG was not a problem. HDR requires enabling in Windows 10 through the Settings / System / Windows HD Color “Play HDR games and apps” Doing so restricts the monitor to four HDR Picture Modes: HDR Vivid, HDR Standard, HDR Game and HDR Cinema. There is not a custom HDR mode but changes made to the Custom non-HDR picture mode will be transferred to the HDR ones. This is a bit confusing, again I think there are too many choices here. Before adjusting the settings it’s necessary to have some test materials suited to HDR, I found some from Diversified Video Solutions The most important ones and the only ones you can really use without a calibrating device are the Black Clipping and Grayscale Ramps. Since the video settings are confined to the presets any adjustments need to be made through your PC graphics card interface such as Nvidia Control Panel. Set Gamma to make skin tones correct and allow every step of the gray ramps to be visible. Adjust the black clipping with Brightness and the white level on the gray ramps with Contrast. I personally found the HDR Game preset to be the best, showing the best range of black levels and keeping the colors from appearing too vivid. Windows makes some very garish primary colors in HDR Mode as well and these looked better in that preset. Digital Vibrance can also be turned down in Nvidia CP. It’s too bad that this monitor doesn’t come with a calibrated correct preset for HDR. You can get it looking correct but it takes work. Another setting that was trouble for me was the Game setting for Response Time. For me it was best set off as otherwise it created a sticking or micro stutter when gaming. This is actually mentioned in the manual. The 5ms this display has is pretty typical for screens this size and with any enhancement disabled it runs very smooth. This had caused me quite some concern until I figured to switch the setting off. Sharpness is another setting that really has no place in today’s digital displays especially 4K and HDR where it creates problems with text appearing dithery. I ended up with this at 20%. My scores: Picture Quality: I’m giving it a 4/5 because it is so hard to get Windows looking right on it. Maybe that’s the fault of Microsift and not the display itself. You can get it to 5/5 but it takes work. For Gaming: 5/5 It is spectacular. Gaming in 4K with HDR is fantastic and this does a beautiful job. Tech Support: I might have needed to contact them with all the trials of setting this up so I put that at 3/5. Really it shouldn’t be necessary for customers to go through all these hoops. TVs and monitors today have too many settings, this one is par for the course I suppose. Final analysis: All the work pays off though in that this is a really stellar display. I’m seeing new ranges of color and contrast in games I hadn’t previously seen, even non-HDR ones and the size is quite immersive.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Xbox one X owners should not buy. This screen flickering issue is extremely common for those using this monitor with the Xbox one X. I had this same issue with another LG product sooooooo it’s pretty safe to say I will not be buying anything from LG again. LG seems to refuse to acknowledge this issue. I doubt it will ever be fixed. But I will update this review if it does.

Does it monitor support brightness adjust on macbook's keyboard?

Asked by: RyanYK
Adjusting the brightness for a monitor on a MacBook's keyboard is a function that only works on Apple displays and on our LG UltraFine displays. It will not work on the LG 32" Class 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with HDR10 (31.5" Diagonal), Model # 32UD99-W...^IFV

The only thing I can't get right is when using bootcamp on my Macbook pro 2017 with Win10, play Battlefield 1 using HDR - its enabled in the game but the monitor does not detect it. I'm using a USB-C connection between my monitor and the laptop.

Recommendation - Allow volume control inputs from Macbook to set the volume on in-monitor speakers (32UD99-W) vs. having to use the joystick. Since the 5ks have no joystick it is allowed there, could this be patched to these monitors as well? Thanks!

Asked by: Alulim
Hi Alulim. Thank you for your suggestion. Regrettably, allowing the volume control inputs from Macbook pro to set the volume for the built-in speakers on the LG 32" Class 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with HDR10 (31.5" Diagonal), Model # 32UD99-W would require a hardware update and they cannot be patched to this monitor as it has already been released...^IFV

I am using a high speed HDMI cable with ethernet to connect my 2015 Macbook Pro to the display. When I try to view Amazon Prime, I get the error message that my computer, cable or display does not meet HDCP requirements. Any thoughts on why?

Asked by: trialcritic
Hello, what it means is that the HDMI port(s) on the MacBook Pro is not HDCP 2.2 compliant. For streaming 4K movies or content from game consoles, Ultra HD Blu-ray disc players, or any device connected to the monitor, everything in the chain must be HDCP 2.2 compliant otherwise the signal does not get passed. The HDMI ports and the DisplayPort on the monitor are all HDCP 2.2 compliant. You should not have any issue 1080p content. You just will not get 4K if the HDMI port(s) on your MacBook Pro are not HDCP 2.2 compliant. ^AC

Can I daisy chain two of these displays?

Asked by: austincondiff
Hi Austincondiff. The LG 32" Class 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with HDR10 (31.5" Diagonal), Model # 32UD99-W does not have a DisplayPort Output so you cannot daisy chain it. You cannot daisy chain USB devices connected via USB-C, although you can simulate daisy chaining with the addition of USB-C-connected hubs. HDMI does not support daisy chaining, but all the ports on the 32UD99-W are inputs...^IFV
