LG Ultrafine 5K Has burn-in issues. :/


I bought mine like 2 years ago and it's been rock solid. IIRC they had some revisions over the years. And being rock solid: that's a bit of a lie because the monitor is wobbly as hell. So I've propped it with two supports on each side. Apart from that, the picture is the nicest I ever had from a monitor, and I had a lot of good ones. Text is super sharp and has acres of pixels. Compared to 4K monitor I can have both a terminal client and a browser side by side all looking nice. Can't fit that on 4K unfortunately.


I have three… one is ok, one has a weird rainbow across the top center for 1.5in, and one has terrible burn in after just a few minutes.


Yeah that sucks. We definitely need more 5K monitors. And oh what I would give for high refresh rate ones too.
