According to our monitor expert
The LG 43UD79 is a 4K monitor that allows you to work on your graphic design in the greatest detail. The large screen measures 42.5 inches, which gives you ample work space and, thanks to the split screen function, allows you to work in 4 windows at the same time. The Ultra HD resolution on this large screen displays razor-sharp images and you can zoom in closely while editing photos. Do you work in a dimly-lit area? No problem, as the high brightness of 350 cd/m2 ensures good color representation at all times. The anti-glare panel also prevents reflections and reflected light, so you can stay focused while you work.

Design
With an almost 110 cm screen diagonal, the LG may not fit on every desk and it also takes some getting used to not only looking at such a giant, but working on it. The monitor is not so much suitable for everyday internet and e-mails, but is particularly suitable for photo, video and graphic editing with many menu panels that hide the view of what matters on smaller screens. The monitor is almost colorfast and comes calibrated from the factory with certificate. The sharpness is remarkably good for a matte screen. All cables are neatly supplied, as well as a remote control and a well-functioning software application to easily operate the monitor.

I've been looking for a large 4K screen for quite some time now, especially for gaming. A monitor of this size is generally not geared towards gaming, but rather productivity and multitasking. So finding a quality screen for this is not easy.
For this I returned 2 other devices because they suffered from ghosting, burn in effect, etc....
1 Of my previous monitors was an LG ultrawide that I was very satisfied with, so my confidence in this product was already quite high.
Third time, so lucky. The LG 43UD79 meets my expectations perfectly. Clear image, good color reproduction and contrast, fast response, many connections,... Just a very good product. Even with a remote control that comes with ease of use. Of course, in addition to gaming and multimedia, it is also fantastic for multitasking with Picture In Picture (PIP) and Picture By Picture (PBP) mode.
The only thing that can be said as a criticism is that there is a slight shadow border that makes you lose a few pixels on the sides. This is also mentioned in most reviews, but this is certainly not disturbing or striking and does not change the excellent price/quality of this monitor.
