TBD = To be determined i would have thought :D

It's a bit of an odd one though as it's 27", mentions it's a monitor but then talks about TV in the PDF on their site. The PDF and website spec also suggests it has 120Hz TruMotion as well which is a TV function really (the interpolated 120Hz that is). The PDF also mentions IPS in the summary. looks like from the spec that it would be IPS which would make sense really. if so, then there must be a new 27" 1080HD IPS panel as at the moment as far as i know there are only panels with 2560 x 1440 res which are 27" IPS

Would be absolutely great if thats the case. The 23" 1080p IPS-monitors are little bit small imo.
 
sent a mail to LG a week ago, they responded saying the model was allready available for purchase but it's not. I sent another mail today to ask for clarification (I think he thought I was talking about LG E2750V (eventhough I mentioned E2770V).
If I learn something I will let you know.

Great! Please inform if you receive any more info on this model!
 
this is great news, I recently picked up the IPS236v from bestbuy, but had to return it due to dead pixel and top right of screen was damaged, I was contemplating on getting a 27 too but didn't want to spend the insane price for a dell or apple cinema.
 
the e2370v is not 120. So there is a good chance this one will not be as well. Also this panel is available from amazon as a pre-order for 439. It is IPS, just not 120. If you check the manual for this display at LG it also lists 60, yet the spec sheet lists 120.

Not sure wtf is going on at LG, maybe the specs changed last minute. But the fact is the 2370 is 60, and the price point of this one indicates it will be 60 as well.

we all found it by now on different sites, just no one has them in stock yet so we'll have to wait until LG gives us an update, that is if they respect their customers..

It is very unlikely that it is true 120 Hz but it doesnt really matter. It appears to be a very fast IPS panel and just as strat says this will make it possible to get a 27 inch IPS monitor for a reasonable price.

I am pretty sure this panel will be a hugh success cause most people dooesnt really need higher resolution than 1080p. And the price is incredible.
 
it sounds like it's interpolation ? it says TruMotion 120hz for games/movies/sports, well sheesh, since there is no 120hz content other then directly from a PC or 3D, sounds like it could be a TV feature, and not true 120hz.

Most new monitors come with displayport (Dell U2711, Dell U3011, ACD 27", etc). This one doesn't. That's a bummer, since I would consider it the future of display connectors.

No no thats not what I meant, what does this display connector allow? Does it allow you to combine screens or use TV cable or what?

if it would be true 120 Hz the price would be x4.

The specs still look really impressive!
 
Some info:

"The LG E2770V shares many of the specifications of the E2370V – with the same 1920 x 1080 resolution, 14ms ISO response time (6ms grey to grey), WLED backlight and 178°/168° viewing angles. What’s more (all going well) this will be the most affordable 27-inch IPS computer monitor launched to date – with a recommended retail price of $439.99. Although not officially confirmed on the spec. sheet we have received confirmation from a reliable source closely allied with LG that the monitor will indeed ship with an IPS panel for superior viewing angles and colour reproduction. There were some initial issues with supplying what is a brand new IPS panel for the E2770V but it seems they have been ironed out – hopefully we will see this panel incorprated into computer monitors from other manufacturers, too.

LG is also keen to highlight ‘Tru Motion 120Hz’ capability which is a frame interpolation technology developed primarily for LG TVs to help smooth out motion. Unfortunately this isn’t a ‘true 120Hz’ technology and there are still some real obstacles preventing IPS monitor responsiveness reaching the levels of 120Hz TN panels (see this article). Despite this the LG E2770V still presents an interesting proposition for those looking for a large and affordable IPS monitor for gaming and other tasks. Another interesting point to note is that the monitor bezel and stand appears to be brushed metal (as with the E2370V) and LG will feature the input-lag minimising ‘Thru Mode’ as they have on the E2770V’s smaller cousin – all in all a promising package from LG. No specific release date has been given but the monitor is available to preorder in the United States for $439.99."

Smaller connector, higher bandwidth in the newer iterations. Mostly, its just a future-proofing thing. HDMI is fine for TVs but we don't see that port as often with computers. Displayport is what people will use after DVI.
 
Even though it's disappointing that it's not a 120Hz input monitor despite all the marketing BS, just the fact that it's a 27" IPS monitor for only $440 makes this a very interesting monitor.

That is PCM bullshit. Don't listen to it.

Also, while it may not be 120Hz input, it is worth keeping in mind that the 120Hz function should increase this monitor's responsiveness.
 
I'd been wavering on getting a 27" TN (one of the Acers) or a 32" TV to keep on as background in the office. A 32" is a bit too big, and the 27" seemed too little bang for the buck. This panel fills that niche nicely.

I too would like to see displayport, and I'm skeptical about the quality of the pictured stand. Other than that, awaiting more information.

unfortunately it even decreases responsiveness
not the mention the input lag

this is only ok for watching movies but very bad for everything else

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but if my interpretation of frame interpolation is correct, then frame interpolation simply adds an extra frame in between the frames that are input. This would be a "combination frame" of sorts. Now, this would require some processing done somewhere, in which case it would be the monitor itself. Again, only if I am correct, the monitor needs to receive two frames, process the intermediary frame, and then display the intermediary frame before the second of the received frames.

Sorry for the block of text, but if somebody reads that, am I right? I'm really pulling things out of my ass here, based mostly on the term "frame interpolation" itself.

The real question is whether or not this "frame interpolation" be turned off.

You have a good understanding of what is motion compensated frame interpolation. What we need to consider is whether this is actually occurring in this monitor.

It will not. It is a gamingmonitor and LG has even stated that it is produced to illiminate input lag.

This panel will be the best IPS for reasonable money out there for a long time. 27 inch IPS designed for gaming cant go wrong.

I think they will massproduce it too so the prices can be cut even further and we will highly likely see the panel in monitors for other brands as well.

Your optimism is so impressive that I can't decide if it's sincere or sarcastic. Either way, well done!

Well, you can just be realistic.

Why the heck would LG produce an IPS monitor for gaming with high input lag when they know that just low input lag is what gaming costumers demand?

Looked at this link of yours but I can't realy find an explenation to what motion is true120Hz or just dual 60Hz

my monitor is claimed to have 2ms but produces 33ms lag and yet lag is barely noticeable..
will this screen have more lag?
 
Just looks like a 27" LED backlit 1080p monitor to me, am i missing something?
 
Oled said:
Yes, it is half the price of any other 27 inch IPS out there.

It is possible their new technology allows the same performance through alternative ways I guess... or maybe their is a serious glitch/shortcomming to keep in mind so lets wait for the revieuw (or hopefully a reply to my mail).
