After weeks of testing, we recently rated the LG 27GL850 as the best gaming monitor on the market. This 1440p 144Hz display impressed us with its excellent color reproduction and motion processing, and because of its relatively affordable price of less than $ 500, some missing features were forgiven. Today, I think we need to give more details on why this new type of display has received our highest recommendation, including a closer look at the display ’s innovative Nano IPS panel, its 1ms GtG response time rating, and some other interesting things. Would be very interesting. Not included in the article we summarized.
The biggest difference between the LG 27GL850 and our previously selected "Best Gaming Monitor" spot is the type of panel they use. Although displays such as the Acer XB271HU and Asus PG279Q use AHVA IPS panels from Taiwanese supplier AU Optronics, this new display is built on LG Display's next-generation Nano IPS panel, which is a subsidiary of the larger LG Treasure
Nano IPS is based on the conventional strength of IPS panels known for their wide viewing angles and accurate color reproduction by stacking nanoparticles on the white LED backlight of the display. This layer filters out wavelengths of light outside the intended color gamut, allowing more accurate colors therein. Therefore, the Nano IPS specification reaches 98% of the DCI-P3 color space, which is equivalent to about 135% of the less demanding sRGB color gamut, which can provide more accurate colors and even support HDR input.
