It amazes me it’s so hard to find monitors around 210+ PPI. Glad this is one.

That said I would be scared to buy this. I’ve heard so many horror stories about the LG UltraFine 5k and the ports breaking and then having to send it in for repair for a long time.

At this point I don’t trust their build quality for monitors.

In general though, I am so glad to see big high DPI monitors have more than one or two options finally.

$8,000 and it only does 60Hz?! What were they thinking?

You misread the article; this is a $2,000 product. An unrelated 32-inch 8k monitor from Asus is $8,000—it's mentioned in passing to disclaim that the LG isn't, technically, the highest-DPI monitor on the market.

Apple’s Pro Display XDR, which this absolutely competes with, is also 60 Hz.

It’s $5000. Without a stand.

There are rumors there will be a new version soon. Perhaps we’ll get 120 Hz.

The refresh rate on these super high resolution monitors is not great.

This monitor is not really for gaming; GPUs aren't powerful enough to drive 6K beyond 60 FPS.

Pointless superficial review, standard for Wired, Verge etc - no brightness uniformity check, no color uniformity check, no color accuracy check, no coating grain check.

Meanwhile a good number of reports mention terrible uniformity issues with that model.
