As you can read in the video description at 0:11 I moved myself to left, this is what's causing a "crush" but really it's just a shadow. And yes this is caused by the coating. Here's a photo of this coating in a broad daylight
To be honest ultrawide is ok but it could be a little bigger, 31,5 inch monitor with this resolution would be perfect. I like uw when it comes to graphic/video editing programs. In this field it's really good. 29 inch uw is 22,5 inch with 16:9 content as I measured. Black bars may be annoying...
So here is my short photo comparison between gw2470h and lg 29um58-p
1. Response time is much better on lg than gw2470h.
2. Coating is better on lg
3. Lg glow is bad with no light, gw2470h is an obvious winner here
Overall lg is 7/10 monitor.

- nice viewing angles

I don't believe that so many people complaining about ghosting or color crush is just a fault of my former panel. Anyway I've just ordered lg 29um58-p with sRGB 99% and factory calibration. Hopefully I will be able to compare gw2470h and this lg next week.
I still don't understand why gw2470h is recommended on first page of this thread while samsung s24e510c isn't which is probably the best 24 inch panel out there. Gw2470h has worse gamma and grayscale than my 6 year old benq tn panel, I won't even mention a terrible ghosting though both of them...
I went to few stores yesterday to look for a new monitor. I saw both s24e510c and s27e510 and must say I'm very impressed. Colors were very vibrant but not crushed. Panel seemed responsive. I also saw lg 24mp75/77 and was very disappointed with poor contrast of this ips monitor. Regarding Benq...

I've returned my Benq GW2470H today. I've looked into folowing models of ips'es samsung s24e390hl and lg 24mp77 and the second one has better gray range and less glow. On the other hand I may buy lg 29um58-p ultrawide ips which has 99% coverage or wait for lg 23mp68vq-p which...
I have gw2470h installed using hdmi. Range changed to 0-255. My settings

Saturation = 45 ( it helps to increase gradient range in light blue on contrast test when coming from 50 )
Sharpness = 7
