By the way, what happens if you forget to switch the monitor back to 120 Hz is shown in the picture below. If the device is generally not recognized as a 120 Hz monitor, unplugging and plugging in the HDMI cable during operation usually helps. When the monitor asks you via the OSD to adjust the options, please answer quickly in the affirmative (with the remote control!) before the menu disappears again. Then you also have the full 120 Hz to choose from under Windows. However, you always have to set it manually in the Windows menu, because only 60 Hz are set by default. Then you will also find this in the graphics driver.
A dark moving screensaver is first civic duty
We still know this from earlier, but the story with the screensaver is actually really mandatory for an OLED as a monitor. Let’s call it a necessary preventive measure and wise foresight for desktop use. Especially since it fits in perfectly with today’s theme of turning off auto dimming. Then a screensaver works wonders and the OLED politely says thank you.
Summary and conclusion
The picture quality of the LG OLED55 G19LA is beyond reproach when used as a PC monitor, as long as you don’t let the AI interfere too cockily. The game optimizer does what it’s supposed to as long as you use the default setting and activate the individual options up to the boost or the respective sync procedures yourself. Then both working and playing are a real pleasure, if you have treated yourself to the tweak with the service remote beforehand. However, this is an absolute must.
Unfortunately, it has to be said so harshly, but with the automatic dimming activated ex works, the LG OLED55 G19LA is unfortunately so NOT usable on the desktop and I would have really wished for more honest reviews in this regard. I know how to help myself, but the normal user probably not so much. And exactly because some annoyed users contacted me, who wanted to return the devices for exactly this reason, I wrote this article. And just between us: the other manufacturers unfortunately do not do it differently or hardly better.
After so many years of OLED technology, the problem of “burned-in” pixels should finally be under control, especially when the Evo panel is actively advertised as such. But in this way, such a restriction seems all the more incomprehensible. Well, buy remote and be happy, then also LG has at least one more satisfied customer.
