Macbook Pro 2019 and LG Ultrafine 5K blurry

Hi, I just bought a new LG UltraFine 5K‑display and connected it to my MacBookPro 15,3 (15-inch, 2019). I was surprised to see that the quality was not as sharp as I expected. When I connect my LG Ultrafine 4K-display it is way crispier than the 5K. On the 5K the font is fuzzy, icons in the dock are blurry and the overall UI is just not perfectly sharp.

Has anyone any idea what's wrong?

I updated to the latest macOS 10.15.4, my processor is 2,3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9 and my Graphics are Radeon Pro Vega 16 4 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB.

Thanks.

MacBook Pro

Thanks for replying, I've unchecked mirroring and I've read all the instructions but nothing is about the screen being blurry. These are all just general guides about how to connect external displays to you Mac.
