Oled, 4k 120hz, supports VRR and HDR10 (if you manage to display it, that is) CEC and other features. I haven’t managed to make CEC work tho, I blame my display port to HDMI adapter that missing correct pin (cec-ctl does show it and apparently recognize it, but can’t send signals). Also, cause it’s technically a TV, lg decided that automatic turning on and off without CEC is prohibited. So I had to root the damn thing, find exact endpoints that used for mobile app and trigger turning on\off that way. Dunno if it’s “correct” way of doing so, but I don’t think there any other solution on the internet (maybe I need to upload script to github, lol).
Overall it’s okay’ish gaming monitor, delay is almost non existent, resolution amazing and recently even HDR started working on linux. But I would advise to look at monitors with similar price instead, cause:
You won’t need to deal with LG account crap (for example to install\update apps or even acquiring developer mode - you need to sign in + for developer mode also sign in on their web site and I wasn’t able to do so, so I had to root damn thing - that was way easier for some reason)
No “smart tv” features like constant updates, “oh, smart fridge from other flat wants to connect to your device!” and crap like that
Turn on\off just works with your pc, no need to manually do so or use weird scripts

No, not really. It can provide more strain on the eyes due to higher peak brightness, but beyond that - it just a screen.
It is what it is
