Hello! Great question, we have looked at the 24-inch mode during testing and found that it seems to downscale 1440p making things like text slightly blurry, the monitor stayed responsive even in 24-inch mode. Text remains the clearest at its native 27 inch.

Do you have any idea what the actual 24 inch display resolution is per chance. I’ve looked everywhere asked LG several times and can’t figure it out. Its between 1296p and 1314p. But between those resolutions there are no resolutions divisible by 2 or leave the height as 16:9… totally lost

Fwiw, you can change the resolution to 1332p480hz while in the 24” mode just as easily as you can with other resolutions.

the 24 inch mode is not 1332p though. Its somewhere between 1296p and 1314p. Between those resolutions there are no 16:9 resolotions that are divisible by 2 though. I’m totally lost to what this resolution actually is and I have no idea how to find it, extremely frustrating as I have asked LG support at least 5 times and they’re all utterly useless outsourced morons that don’t actually know anything about their own products.

Hi there! Was wondering if you guys tested out the 24 inch mode? Strangely there are very little reviews or information about this monitor online, which is a little bit frustrating. I had to find a billi billi review in chinese that discussed the 24 inch mode. The manual, nor lg support are able to tell me what the actual resolution of the 24 inch mode is, unless it is infact just downscaling from native 1440p with post processing which sounds AWFUL. In the billi billi review, it mentioned that the monitor had blur on this 24 inch mode, I would really love and appreciate an analysis on the 24 inch mode, is it as crystal clear as the 27 inch mode? Is there a 24 inch resolution in the EDID of the monitor to use for said mode, and is it blurry if you guys are able to manually calculate or find the resolution at the 24 inch mode? Would mega appreciate it, thanks for the great review.
