Maybe see if the eve spectrum will ship to you and you can probably get that shortly and it’s the same specs basically.


Awesome, they seem to have been shipping out units the past few days. Gonna wait a few days to see some in-depth reviews like response time and overshoot.
I sent them an mail to hear if the monitor is Flicker-free and Low Blue Light certified. I get headaches within two hours with flicker below 1000hz.

But man same panel as the LG and even a clean design and USB-C DP alt.

Thanks. I saw and read all the review after your initial post.
Missing a bit of information still to tip the scale towards a purchase.

Hopefully hardware unboxed or rtings will get their hands on one. Would like to know the uniformity, specially because this is bottom lit instead of the more conventional edge lighting. Also if there is flicker and at last what overshoot there can be expected.

Slightly concern as you might hear. Eve don't have a good or long track record.

Yeah they have had shipping issue in the past. But they still around so that’s a plus.

Well that's a huge plus :D
Going to wait about a week to see if there are more reviews and get a feel at how many people are getting theirs shipped.

Upcoming reviews of consumer units will tell. Still a better panel than other 4k 144hz ones like the one from Innolux in the Acer XV2 one.

I'm not willing to spend 2500$ on a monitor 1500$ would be absolutely maximum. Not really a fan of curved monitors either.

Perhaps a dumb question - have you tried looking at eBay? There should be someone who can ship overseas (from US) and these most likely are in used condition.

I checked LG's website on those two products and their specs. They're electrically compatible in EU. The spec states 110-240 VAC operating 50Hz or 60Hz. EU should be 220 VAC at 50Hz.

Yes. But after shipment, custom fees and VAT the price will be 2000$ for a 899$ product
