LG UltraGear 25G523B-B 24.4" FHD IPS 200Hz Gaming Monitor

LG UltraGear 25G523B-B 24.5-inch Viewable FHD 200Hz IPS Gaming Monitor

24.5-inch viewable IPS display

The LG UltraGear 25G523B-B is a flat 24.5-inch viewable Full HD IPS gaming monitor, marketed by LG in the 25-inch class. Bangladesh listings use both “25 inch” and “24.4 inch,” while LG Japan’s exact-model page specifies 24.5 inches. The complete model code is 25G523B-B. It has a 1920 × 1080 resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio, anti-glare treatment and an IPS panel with 178-degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles. LG gives a 544 × 303 mm active display area and a 0.2832 × 0.2802 mm pixel pitch. The existing catalog placed 0.0944 × 0.2802 mm under the full pixel-pitch field; 0.0944 mm is the width of one color subpixel, while the complete RGB pixel pitch is approximately 0.2832 × 0.2802 mm. The field label/value has been corrected without treating the subpixel figure as fabricated. At roughly 90 pixels per inch, FHD is a common resolution for this compact high-refresh gaming size.

200Hz refresh over HDMI and DisplayPort

The headline refresh rate is 200Hz. LG lists a vertical frequency range of 48–200Hz with variable refresh enabled on both HDMI and DisplayPort on its Japanese exact-model page. HDMI 2.0 inputs support Full HD up to 200Hz, and the DisplayPort input supports Full HD up to 200Hz. A host graphics card, driver and cable must provide a compatible signal and the operating system must be set to the available 200Hz mode. The display’s maximum does not guarantee that a game or video source will render 200 frames each second. The 200Hz specification describes the panel’s refresh capability.

1ms GtG, VRR and gaming functions

LG specifies a 1ms gray-to-gray response time when the response-time setting is set to Faster. This is not the same measurement as MPRT or a promise that every pixel transition is always completed in one millisecond. The monitor supports variable refresh rate, AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible. LG Japan’s model-specific note says G-SYNC Compatible works over DisplayPort; do not promise G-SYNC over HDMI for this unit. VRR can reduce tearing and stutter when the graphics source varies frame timing inside a supported range. The monitor also includes Dynamic Action Sync, Black Stabilizer, Crosshair and an FPS counter. These are gaming display features and overlays rather than a substitute for a responsive system or a guaranteed competitive result.

Brightness, color and HDR10

The IPS panel is rated at 300 cd/m² typical brightness and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. LG lists sRGB coverage of 99% typical and about 16.7 million display colors. A wide viewing angle helps preserve the image when the screen is viewed slightly off center. The monitor accepts HDR10 signals. The manufacturer does not list a VESA DisplayHDR certification tier on the regional product specification reviewed here, so describe HDR10 support without implying certified peak brightness or a high-end HDR experience. An SDR picture mode, room lighting and display settings can affect perceived color and contrast. sRGB coverage alone does not establish individual-unit calibration accuracy.

Eye-care and on-screen functions

LG includes Flicker Safe, a blue-light reduction mode, Color Weakness adjustment and Smart Energy Saving. Blue-light reduction changes the screen’s color temperature, so it can make white areas appear warmer. Color Weakness can adjust some color presentation for users who have difficulty distinguishing certain hues; the displayed colors may then differ from the original content. Gaming aids include Black Stabilizer and Crosshair, while the on-screen display provides a refresh-rate counter and other controls. These functions give users options for different content but should not be presented as health treatment or guarantees of eye comfort.

HDMI, DisplayPort and headphone output

The connector panel has two HDMI 2.0 inputs, one DisplayPort 1.4 input with DSC support, and one 3-pole headphone output. There are no built-in speakers listed for this model, and the headphone jack is for audio output rather than a microphone input. Connect a PC or console by HDMI or DisplayPort and route audio from the source to headphones or external speakers. The HDMI count is two, even though some local retailer summaries omit one port. The USB ports, webcam and built-in audio speakers are not listed on the exact-model product specification. The supplied DisplayPort cable is useful for a PC setup; an HDMI cable is not listed in the Japan regional box-accessory list.

Tilt stand, VESA and dimensions

The slim design uses a three-side frameless bezel and a compact stand. The monitor supports a 100 × 100 mm VESA mount for a compatible arm or wall bracket. The included stand is tilt-adjustable and does not list height, swivel or pivot adjustment. LG Japan’s exact-model specification lists a -5° to +15° range; some secondary Bangladesh product information gives a different upper angle, so confirm the local unit’s range in its manual. Without the stand, LG lists dimensions of approximately 558 × 324 × 47 mm and weight of 2.4 kg. With the stand, dimensions are approximately 558 × 427 × 220 mm and weight is 3.5 kg. The carton is 655 × 134 × 385 mm and gross package weight is 4.9 kg. Check mounting hardware, monitor-arm load capacity, desk depth and cable clearance before installing it.

Power and package contents

Power is supplied by an external adapter. LG’s Japan specification lists 19V, 1.7A DC output, a 100–240V, 50/60Hz input, 16.48W on-mode consumption, 0.5W standby and 0.3W off. The exact regional accessory list includes an AC/DC adapter, 1.5m power cord, 1.8m DisplayPort cable, setup guide, warranty card and mounting screws. Bundles can differ between regions, so check the actual Bangladesh carton and seller listing. The Japanese product specification identifies a 2026 release; local warranty coverage and included accessories are distributor-dependent.

Bangladesh price and warranty

Current Bangladesh retail snapshots show the model around ৳22,499 at Star Tech, ৳22,500 at Ryans and roughly ৳21,200–৳22,800 at TechLand depending on the displayed offer and timing. PQS and other reseller listings also show approximately ৳22,800. These are time-sensitive retailer prices, not a fixed manufacturer price. BiponiBD’s existing ৳22,800 variant price is retained. Local sellers advertise three years of warranty. LG’s US support page shows one year for purchases in the United States only; that US term is not proof of Bangladesh coverage. Buyers should confirm the local warranty provider, authorized service route and written terms on the invoice.

Verify the full model number

The model suffix distinguishes this display from the 27-inch LG 27G523B-B, which shares a 200Hz IPS family appearance but has a larger panel and different dimensions. The 25G523B-B is the 24.5-inch viewable, Full HD model. Nearby LG UltraGear 24GS65F-B and 24GS60F-B models have different refresh rates and connector counts; the 25G523B-B is identified by 200Hz, two HDMI inputs, DisplayPort 1.4 and its 24.5-inch-viewable panel. Check the full rear label before buying or comparing parts. Some local seller text gives a “1ms GtG” claim, which agrees with LG’s exact-model 1ms GtG at Faster setting; some titles reduce the panel to 25 inches while other pages state 24.4, while LG Japan says 24.5. The listing should explain the size convention rather than treating those rounded values as different products.

Set up 200Hz and variable refresh

To use 200Hz, select the monitor’s HDMI or DisplayPort input, connect a source that can output 1920 × 1080 at 200Hz, and choose that refresh rate in the operating system’s advanced display settings. DisplayPort is the input LG identifies for NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible. AMD FreeSync Premium is available with a compatible AMD source. If 200Hz does not appear, review the output mode, cable rating, GPU driver, color depth and selected port. An HDMI source that supports only 60Hz or a low-bandwidth adapter may restrict the choices. Check the on-screen refresh counter to confirm the active signal after configuration.

Who should consider this monitor?

The monitor suits players who value fast refresh, adaptive sync and an IPS panel at a compact desk size. Its useful strengths include 200Hz over both digital inputs, two HDMI sockets, DisplayPort, an audio output, a VESA mount and a locally advertised three-year warranty. Practical trade-offs include Full HD pixel density on a 24.5-inch panel, an external power adapter, a tilt-only stand and no built-in speakers or USB hub. HDR10 support should be read as signal compatibility rather than proof of a DisplayHDR certification. The catalog’s established product name and URL are preserved; the name currently says 24.4 inches, a local rounding convention, while the body and attributes state LG’s 24.5-inch viewable size and the commonly used 25-inch product class.
