Planar Helium PCT2785 vs LG 24GM79G-B

The black levels are respectively low at 0.16cd/m², which helps the contrast ratio achieve 1100:1 which is much lower than the advertised 5000:1, but still quite good.

The response time is 12ms, which isn't lightning fast, but it's still quick enough to make the system feel more responsive than cheaper monitors. While not fast enough for high-level gaming, this monitor won't make your system feel slow or unresponsive.

It really does look like a massive tablet with a kickstand - but that's not a bad thing. There's no stand visible, leaving the front looking very clean. The stand can angle anywhere from 15-70 degrees which allows for flexible use, or it can be folded in and used flat on the desk or even mounted using the VESA mounting holes.

This monitor has many peripherals built-in, and unless you use them heavily they will do the job just fine. Unless you feel the need for dedicated hardware, the built-in stereo speakers work well enough, and the webcam and mic are acceptable quality for occasional recreational use (for business calls or other uses where quality is important, you'll want to upgrade to dedicated hardware).

You'll have no problem getting the best possible viewing angles on the LG 24GM79-B because the monitor supports a wide range of ergonomic adjustments. You can adjust the monitor's height, ting, and swivel angle.

The LG 24GM79-B is an excellent option for action gamers because it offers smooth and lag-free gaming experience. The motion looks clear and appears without any signs of motion blur. The gaming doesn't feel laggy thanks to the monitor's low input lag.
