Lg 27Gs95Qe-B Review

The HDR brightness is okay. It gets brightest with small highlights, and they stand out against the rest of the screen. The EOTF also follows the target PQ curve well, though it has an early roll-off, so highlights don't get the brightest they could. These results are from the 'Gamer 1' Picture Mode, with the Brightness at its max, Peak Brightness at 'Low,' and Smart Energy Saving turned 'Off.'

The monitor has an automatic brightness limiter (ABL), meaning the screen decreases in brightness with larger content. If you prefer consistent brightness across different content, you can turn Peak Brightness 'Off,' but that makes the screen dimmer, which you can see with the results below. You can also see the results with Peak Brightness set to 'High,' which gets much brighter but has a more aggressive ABL and a less accurate image.
