Overview
The LG 24GS50F is a 23.8-inch VA monitor built around a VA-panel UltraGear built around a 3000 : 1 native contrast ratio. It runs Full HD 1920 x 1080 at 48 Hz - 180 Hz and HDR10 support. Brightness is rated at 250 cd/m² with a 3000 : 1 static contrast ratio, and the Anti-glare/Matte (3H) coating keeps reflections down. Connectivity is 2 x HDMI 2.0, 1 x DisplayPort 1.4, 1 x 3.5 mm Audio Out, and the stand offers tilt-only adjustment at 3.54 kg. Buy it if you want a genuinely fast 180 Hz panel for competitive gaming without paying flagship prices; skip it if you need USB-C, height adjustment, a wider color gamut, since none of those are on offer here.
Key Highlights
- 180 Hz refresh rate for noticeably smoother motion than standard 60-144 Hz panels
- HDR10 support adds highlight punch to compatible content
- Adaptive sync support helps reduce screen tearing during gaming
- 3000 : 1 static contrast ratio for a VA panel

HDR & Brightness Reality
This panel supports HDR10, which lets it accept an HDR10 signal and apply basic tone-mapping, but with only 250 cd/m² typical brightness and a 3000 : 1 static contrast ratio it can't reproduce the deep blacks or intense highlights that define a true high-end HDR experience. Treat the HDR10 badge as signal compatibility rather than a genuine visual upgrade over SDR content.

Pros & Cons
- 180 Hz refresh rate is genuinely fast for the price point
- HDR10 signal support is a nice extra at this price
- Slim 38.1 mm profile keeps the desk footprint small
- Anti-glare/Matte (3H) coating cuts glare in bright rooms
- Tilt-only stand with no height, pivot or swivel adjustment
- No built-in speakers, so external audio is required
- sRGB coverage is not published, so colour accuracy is unverified
- VA panel can show more off-axis colour shift than IPS alternatives
