One of the biggest selling points of LG's IPS 7 series monitors (IPS237 / IPS237L /IPS277 /IPS277L) is the incredibly thin bezel of 1.2mm.

Unfortunately this statement from LG is false. I bought the IPS237 monitor for 240€ from a German online retailer and the bezel turned out to be 11mm wide.

Make sure to watch this video before buying this monitor.

    Shouldn't it be 1.2cm? not 1.2mm?

    The monitor itself is not bad, no doubt about that but I basically just bought it for the 1mm bezel so the main, stand out feature was missing.

    I have a 27EA63V-P. It has the same problem. It has a black border of 1cm I think. You don't see that on the pic's from the LG site.

    LG didn't lie about the bezel width... You just don't know the definition of bezel..

    I have this monitor, and it's amazing! It is indeed true about the bezel, but imo it doesn't matter. I love this monitor. Btw the panel is amazing. BUY IT <3

    I would recommend get the thinnest bezel ones then place them a bit behind eachother so you get less noticable bezel.
