LG’s webOS setup is fantastic, I have two TVs that use it and find the integration with apple devices to be really great.
AirPods pair almost seamlessly. Casting is quick and easy.

Pulled the trigger after your Review and I’m very happy with the monitor . It’s in my office/ kitchen and the whole family can use it. Kids watch TV and mom and dad get work done. The Ergo arm was a huge selling point for me . I think as a society we are spoiled with the image quality arguments . It’s brilliant for what you pay for

[alekseycherman]

I generally like your content a lot, but isn't it problematic to call a video about a product from LG a "review" when the video is itself sponsored by LG, and the text description of the video says that it was created in exchange for some sort of payment (in currency or goods) from LG? If something's being reviewed, readers/viewers want to be confident that the reviewer will tell them if a product is bad - but this is really hard to imagine in a video sponsored by the company that makes it.

The monitor is slow compared to all other monitors with same specs due to Web OS (Smart), if you are looking to buy a monitor to function as a TV more then its good.
The speakers do not have base but the volume is extremely nice.
It is a VA panel display and not IPS.
I think the brightness is high even though specs-wise it is low. I tend to work in an environment that has 'curtains on' level light, and it is too bright in that situation even when I set the brightness of the monitor to 0.
Also, in the Youtube app, you cannot type using your mobile. Mobile Keyboard is not supported for some apps, so you will need to type using magic remote.


I will not recommend this for daily 9-5 work or gaming, but only for TV-like purposes or some light work that does not require speed typing or clicking.

I am returning this just to replace it for same specs without Web OS but with IPS Display.
Probably buy 32un880 or 32bn880u.

Concerning Display quality, which one would you prefere ? This one or the M8 ?

[MinimaLune]

Thank you for the review. I'm looking for a monitor for my father's PC and this looks like a decent option. However, I wish it came with:
- 120Hz Refresh Rate
- Over 500 of typical brightness
- DisplayPort support
- Less chin at the bottom of the display
That being said, for $499, it's a great deal but I wish at least it had a better refresh rate.

Currently on sale in Canada for $350 ($260 USD) it's super hard to beat for the resolution, size, and features.

[Imsolovesway]

How does this compare to the
Samsung M80C?

[susanthapa]

Can you please do a comparison between this monitor and the LG 32UN880-B 32" UltraFine monitor?

[CadellVas]

How would you compare this to the 32UN880, for a little more money?

This is smart, but VA

[antonizieba]

I think that this is a big competitor for Samsung M8. The ergo arm is a killer feature to have. Looking forward to see it on European sites.

[jameslee]

You did not comment about the picture quality with technical details.I would want to know if I were to buy it

[DenisMarciniak]

I bought this display and connected it to my macbook pro M1 Pro and it doesn't shot 60 Hz refresh. only 30 and lower, tried over multiple hdmi and usb c cables. Any ideas?

[eldotjay]

*Why is this monitor discontinued already?*

[MagnificClub]

Love the video, . looks good but now I wonder which I should pick between this and the Samsung m8.

[NICOSAY]

Such a shame it is not available in Europe :(

Great review E ! I wonder if the VA panel shoud be a NO compared to IPS...

[Officialmorpheus]

okay but smart monitors will get slow like the television right?

[Philson]

How is the MacOS scaling? Can you use it as native resolution?

[brandon_wallace]

That is a nice looking monitor with great features. If the speakers in the monitor are as good as 2.1 speakers there will be no need to have separate speakers and the desk will be cleaner.

[youperspective]

Why has LG still not made this available in EU??? I contacted them and they said they had no plan to release it there, WTF?
So I need to look at competitor product??
