I got this monitor and returned it because it wasn't bright enough if you're in a sunny room or working next to huge windows. It's only 300 nits and the best way I could see difference shades of white/grays for any UI work was to up the brightness to 100% (if it wasn't already) and close my blinds. This sucks because if you're already paying rent for a place with city or nature views but don't get to enjoy those views because the monitor just wasn't bright enough. I highly recommend it for anyone working away from windows or tend to keep their room dark - this monitor is a BEAST. Sadly, it just wasn't the right fit for me, and other creatives should know this issue too.
Impressive in every way. I've been thinking about the idea of integrating a monitor like this in my home office. I bought a Protractor Desk at Barcelona Designs, I changed my old task chair for a more ergonomic one and I have improved the lighting a lot; these changes have allowed me to be more productive. I think choosing a monitor like this is a success. Thank you very much for the review!
Really loving the softness in your video. This is my first time watching you. Really Amazing video too.
@tomnoske BROOOO! Amen! just bought the same monitor after using a 32"4K for years and im on the fence about whether that 20-30% more screen is worth. i love how you touch on the deeper and profound insights into a setup like how we feel and simplicity. I'm 100% on same page and totally agree! It's a pricey upgrade costing a good 1500$ over a 4K32" but that feeling of a wide view and spaceship deck feel is quite something. makes me wanna get some sh%t done! thanks for sharing and for the soul you pour into your videos. it is felt.
Very nice indeed. I too got myself one and video editing is a dream. Using it with my Mac is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing mate.
I just got this monitor and I love it. Previously always had dual monitor setups at work and always used one as a primary. There's always the awkward middle wedge that got in the way. At home I had an old 30 inch 4:3. It was just too tall. Now with a new WFH job, I needed some more usable real estate and this works perfectly. A 34 ultra wide was too small for my bad eyes. With this 40 I find running it at 3440 x 1440 to be perfect for me. Basically the same scale as a 34 but with the pixel density of this lovely 40. The 40 as a 5k2k has much more pixel density than a 34 inch and it helps. And definitely beats the pants off my old HP zr30w
Great review and channel bud! Glad I found you
I've had this LG 5K2K for about two weeks and I'm in love with it! Haven't had any issues at all. Ran it thru my 2020 M1 MacBook Pro until I picked up a M1 mac mini.
Love the vibe to your setup, the colour matching is awesome. I'm so glad you got a ultrawide monitor, helps give a cleaner look and boost productivity. Keep up the fire vids Your editing is on point!
Thankyou dude! I really appreciate it!
I ended up grabbing this a couple of months ago. I also got the standard-ish 38" LG ultrawide because I was curious how they differed. No fricken comparison. The 38" (with lower resolution) showed text with some blur and if drove me nuts. Clearly, I returned that one. The 5k 40" is fantastic. It's a productivity freak's DREAM. Thanks for this Tom!
ur setup is so warm and clean! 10/10 keep up the good work
Thankyou mate! Really appreciate it
Glad the consistency is coming back a little bit, love the videos!
Thankyou dude! Heaps of time now that I'm not racing Ironman tris haha, so investing it all into youTube
@@TomNoske good man, keep it up, happy for you!
I live in an old renovated Queenslander & am about to do the sunroom up as an office space. I was youtubing looking for that wallnut/dark feels & came across yours. Well done man. Exactly the desk I'm after as I'm doing dark walls & wood trims in the room. Going for the old English smoking lounge vibe. Going to nab this monitor so thanks Tom!
Sounds awesome mate
Nice and cozy setup.
Keep it up!
Thankyou dude!
Thanks for this Video and for the great impression of how a workplace can look like 🙏🏼
There is quite room to improve here.
What I saw a lot and what I don't get so far is the lamp at the top of the monitor. What is is for and what lamp is it? It looks like it perfectly fits the scenario not knowing if and how you realize a HD webcam as well.
Looking fwd to see more - Namaste from Germany
Thank you for the good video.
Where is the filament light on the right side of your monitor from?
Awesome review, also noticed the silhouette of the bike in the back. Will you ever show it to the channel?
I recently got this monitor and absolutely love it. I upgraded from dual 27" 4k screens after briefly trying a 49" but realized the resolution on that was way too low. It really is the perfect amount of space without being overwhelming. What arm are you using to mount it? Has it been working well? The monitor isn't quite as heavy as some of the 49"s but I'm still worried about some of the less strong arms not being quite stable enough.
Just found you a couple days ago and not a moment too soon either! Right when I had finally decided to upgrade from 2 monitors to an ultraWide. Love your content my man!
One major question. What stand are you using for your monitor? almost looks like it goes all the way to your floor?
Thanks for the vid Tom, the less is more approach is deffo something I try to reflect in my life but didn't want to jump without someone else doing it first :) so am pleased its working out for you! Any reason you chose the LG over Dell's option (or any others 5k2k screen you might have put it against).
Hi Tom, great video! Can you please let me know what monitor arm stand you are using? Thanks!
Literally Tom lookalike Ken in Barbie! 🤣 Haha
Man, this monitor is a dream!
It really is! I love it so far!
Nice review! Thinking about buying it. Would you mind measuring the distance from the vesa screws on the back to the top of the monitor? Thanks
Hi Man, that is nice :) which monitor arm do you use?
amazing setup and monitor !
The wallpaper ?
i love the acoustic panels! where are they from?
Great video. What are your thoughts on this monitor if working with HDR content in premiere and editing existing content in the rec.2020 space?
Well done! Your review is unique in the way that it is the only one that refers to the PC setup, I'd change the name of the video to reflect that, you'd have more views I'm sure.
There is something missing though. You told people how it is to use the monitor and how it can enhance your productivity etc. You did not get into the very important subject (for PC users, especially laptops) - can I be able to utilise this beast?
Content creators are one of the potential user groups for this machine, but the other one is a power user - software developer, or some other IT professional who tries to build a perfect home office and try to utilise their work laptop as well as possible.
What types of PC's/laptops, which generations of built-in graphics cards can connect to such a monitor? People (like myself) have to do a ton of research before figuring out that their work laptop won't be able to fuel the laptop unless they connect as 2 separate monitors (4k2k + 1k2k on separate cables). There are probably some other nuances that should be considered before making a decision to spend so much money.
Sweet ride in the background. How would this monitor for music studio? Just got one for $1400. Do you think the 5k will cause a performance issues on a base Mac Studio?
Hi Tom,
I will also buy this monitor.
Can you tell me which monitor arm do you use?
Hi Tom. I bought this monitor after watching your video. I just would like to ask you couple of important questions. I work with Lightroom + Photoshop and edit RAW files and inside Premiere Pro. Would you please tell what picture mode I should be in when I am editing RAW files inside Lightroom and Photoshop and Premiere Pro. Would that be sRGB or DCI-P3 or something else? Also do you need to calibrate this monitor using a calibration software such X-rite Display Pro. Thank you for your help.
1:29 - what kind of bike is near the window? Looks sick
To be honest I was looking for a link to your desk lamp with the Edison bulb. Any info on that would be helpful. Thanks.
Love the content man! Just subscribed. I'm curious how you have it mounted? I've been using a Fully desk mount but it's only rated for 17 lbs and this monitor clocks in at over 25
i have the same question
Very well put together as always! What is the silver monolith like thing on the left of the desk? Looks like a NAS
Thankyou dude! It’s a LaCie 6Big RAID! I’ve got it configured with 6 x 16TB drives so it’s definitely a monolith haha
@@TomNoske Thanks for the reply! New sub, loving the content!
Took me hours of research to choose this screen as well, it's very hard to figure out online what's good and what isn't.
Thoughts on this monitor versus the lg 49wq95c? I like that this has the higher vertical resolution.
49inch 5120 x 1440 vs 40inch 5120 x 2180? Its mainly for work productivity, ie web, spreadsheets, email, dashboard. Both monitors cost the same
Tom, What monitor arm are you using here?
do you have link for those acoustic wall panels?
What monitor arm are you using?
What is the vertical dimension of the part of the panel with pixels? In millimetres or inches.
I also have this monitor, but I feel that the colors where a little off tbh. Am i suposed to change something in my macbook when going into display settings > colour profile? I have mine on "LG Ultrawide" but there is a lot I can choose from? Am I missing out on this important detail? Thx
The monitor I’m looking at. Add it in with a 27” 5k monitor, chef’s kiss!
May I ask what brand the screen hanging lamp is? The original screen is too thick for easy access
Interesting video but duel - a fight or contest with deadly weapons to settle a dispute. Dual - adjective that describes something consisting of two parts. :D
It is a 5K monitor, the K stands for the horizontal resolution and of course depending on the aspect ratio the vertical resolution can vary. The correct term would be 5K2K so when you want to differentiate the different vertical resolution you do not have to explain further. This term is also used mostly for ultra wide monitors (eitehr 21:9 or 32:9) to make the distinction between those and the general 16:9 commercial ratio.
Samsung Odyssey G9 for example would be a 5K1,4K monitor.
It's not a true 5K monitor, hence why they have to differentiate it with "5K2K". This has less pixels than a 5K monitor.
@@TheEchelon Which is exactly what I explained, you cannot describe a screen with one term (in this case the horizontal "K" which is not even accurate as a number but an approximate).
The best way would be to have two number of approximation, one for horizontal and one for vertical.
what monitor brace you used for it?
Hey mate, how to you find the brightness? It’s the main downside I’ve come across by looking into this monitor , I’m mainly worried since I’d be setup in a room with plenty of windows.
I’ve also been looking to upgrade to the Omni desk, I’m leaning the dark acacia over the light, I’m assuming that’s what you’ve got? In which case it’s an easy choice!
Bonus question lol, what colour is the grovemade stand, the colour difference isn’t enough to worry you?
Hey Bryce! From your first question, it definitely lacks in total brightness, however, from my use in my office space with that massive window to my right, I haven't had any issues with it, which is why I didn't mention it in the video, I feel like I have the worst case scenario for a monitor with low brightness, yet it hasn't been noticeable.
To your second, full disclosure, but The omnidesk have sent me their new one in the light acacia option and I personally prefer the lighter option, but both are beautiful table tops!
And the grovemade desk shelf I have is their solid walnut option, it's slightly brighter than the dark acacia and slightly darker than the light acacia, but tbh, with real wood, unless you stain the shelf and table yourself from the same cut of wood, they're never going to be identical! I haven't had any issues with the color difference!
Hope these answers help 🤙🏼
An ultra wide with a 16 by 9 side monitor is the best.
What is the thunderbolt dock you're using? Couldn't understand and closed caption says "lacey six bit"
Disregard, used image search. Lacie 6 big!
How do you connect your monitor to your PC's display port? i have a 3080 TI but there is no displayport in the back
I have a 3090, which has two display ports, but with a 3080, you should be fine connecting via HDMI
@@TomNoske does this still give you the full resolution?
I assume his number 1 issue was with poor dual monitor support from Apple.
I can't decide if I should buy this LG 40" or Dell 40"
I believe the actual screen for both the LG and dell are made by LG, so they’re basically the exact same machine with different UI
Also note that Dell U4021QW supports maximum 60 Hz refresh rate, unlike LG which supports 72 Hz.
Wait for Asus 39 inch oled.
Is it a keyboard review?
I can give you my address for the 32" 4K displays 😬
It IS 5K, as horizontal pixel count is close to 5K... it is not a 2880p, but that's not the "K" meaning...
Gone through so many videos…. Can someone recommend a cheaper alternative?
A cheaper 5k 40” monitor? Or just a cheaper monitor? Unfortunately for these specs you won’t really find cheaper
@@TomNoske I need it for productivity and coding. Color accuracy isn’t important for me. 40 inches would be nice but I would settle for something a bit smaller.
gaah thought it was a true 5k, not a 5k2k.
