About this product
The LG 24GN50W-B is a 24-inch gaming monitor from the UltraGear line, offering a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time on a TN LCD panel. It features a 1920x1080 resolution, 300 cd/m² brightness, 700:1 contrast ratio, and supports both DisplayPort and HDMI inputs. Priced at $120, it targets competitive gamers needing fast, smooth visuals.
Our take
I've been using the LG UltraGear 24GN50W-B for a few weeks. The 144Hz and 1ms response are excellent for fast games—motion is buttery smooth. The build quality feels solid, and I like having both DisplayPort and HDMI. However, the TN panel means colors wash out at off-angles, and the 700:1 contrast ratio is mediocre. At $120, it's a good choice for esports, but not for cinematic use.
