A:AnswerYes, that MacBook should be able to work with these monitors without a problem. It's worth noting, however, that you'll get the best results using either the official Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter and a Premium Certified HDMI cable, or a 3rd party USB-C to DisplayPort adapter (Apple does not offer any directly) and a certified DisplayPort cable.
The reason these are important is that some cheaper cables and adapters can cause varying issues in different setups, and these problems are more likely to occur or be more pronounced when driving 4K displays due to the increased bandwidth required with the higher resolution. Note that these monitors do include good quality cables in the box (one DisplayPort and one HDMI), but they are rather short (around 4ft) and may not be ideal depending on your situation.
Finally, I would also mention that you will get the best performance in macOS by using either the "Default for display" setting or choosing the first scaling option on the "Larger Text" slider (see the attached photo for reference). This will set the contents on your screen to appear to be equivalent to that of a Full HD (1080p) monitor, but because the monitor itself is twice that resolution at 4K, it has the effect of giving you a Retina quality display. You can also set it to the last option for true 4K resolution with no scaling.
If, like me, you prefer a slightly higher resolution, you can choose one of the other scaling options (for example, the second one is equivalent to a 1440p display, and identical in size to that of the non-Retina 27" iMac displays), but be aware that it does slightly affect performance, and you may see your computer using more memory, running the fan more often or more loudly during use, etc. Again, this is only an issue if you choose the intermediate scaling options, but worth mentioning as it has caused some headaches for others who were not aware.
Hope this helps!
A:AnswerI can't answer the question for a PS/4 as I am Mac only. The display, while very well priced and a good product will supply a 4k (UHD) picture only if it is recent enough to have the appropriate video card installed. To put it simply, if you can upgrade to the Mojave version of OSX, you should be able to see a 4k image. With an older card or operating system, it will default to HD... still a good quality image that leaves 720P in the dust.
There are probably better 4k monitors out there, but I haven't seen anything like the low price of the LG. I use it for video editing as well as general computer stuff, and the type appears sharp enough so that is doesn't tire my eyes. This was NOT true of other so-called UHD 4k monitors within $100 of the cost of the LG. It is an excellent monitor for my purposes, and I'm not even pushing a full 4k image through it.
I recommend this monitor without reservation.

A:AnswerThe 27UL600-W is a Plug and Play monitor and doesn't require drivers. Your Macbook just has to have the right connectivity or you can use adapters to make the necessary connections and support plug and play.

A:AnswerIt appears that the UL has two color options (white or grey) and uses a slightly different IPS panel, rather than a AH-IPA (Advanced High Performance)
Its likely just a super-minor, year based refresh of the same model with almost no performance difference
A:AnswerThe only audio output on the LG 27'' Class 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with VESA Display HDR 400 (27'' Diagonal), Model # 27UL600-W is a Headphone Out (aka 3.5mm port). You can connect computer speakers to that port for sound or a soundbar that has an AUX 3.5mm input or Portable 3.5mm Input. Be sure to set your attached computer to output to the connected speakers in its audio settings...^IFV
A:AnswerNo but you can connect speakers straight into the monitor via Auxiliary Cable. But you can also just use bluetooth on the device you’ll connect with the monitor!
A:AnswerDetermining what is causing the lag for the UI on the LG 27'' Class 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with VESA Display HDR 400 (27'' Diagonal), Model # 27UL600-W will require some troubleshooting since it could be the cables that you are using, the ports from which you are connecting from, or a cobination of the two or something else. The monitor features a version 1.4 DisplayPort and 2 x HDMI 2.0 ports. DisplayPort 1.4a can deliver 32.4Gbps (6.48Gbps per lane and HDMI 2.0 delivers 14.4Gbps. Based on that alone, DisplayPort would be the faster port to connect to. Cables also have their specifications and are grouped together under one of four speed categories: Standard, High Speed, Premium High Speed, and Ultra High Speed. Standard HDMI® cables (also referred to as category 1) have been tested by the HDMI Licensing, LLC to perform at speeds of 75Mhz. This is the equivalent of a 1080i signal. High-Speed HDMI cables (also referred to as category 2) have been tested by the HDMI Licensing, LLC to perform at speeds of 340Mhz, which is the highest bandwidth currently available over an HDMI cable, making them able to successfully handle 1080p signals. High-Speed HDMI cables also are able to accommodate higher resolution displays, such as WQXGA cinema monitors. Te underlying technology for USB-C ports can be USB 2.0, USB 3.0 or USB-C 3.1 so that all makes a difference in the trasfer speeds as well...^IFV
A:AnswerHello Annie. I purchased this LG 4k for photography and purchased it for the exact reason you are. This LG on display at best buy will make you question if it's worth it or not. I purchased it and took it home and my God... it works perfect for photography. I mean.... you can spend 1000$ on a color accurate monitor but you don't want to break the bank. This monitor is great! And to answer your question I have no idea how often it needs to be recalibrated. I would figure it out when that bridge comes up. ALSO you can return it. I would buy it and if you don't like it take it back to best buy and try something else!
Hope this helps
A:AnswerThe 27UL600-W is a Plug and Play monitor & doesn't require drivers. Your Macbook Pro just has to have the right connectivity or you can use adapters to make the necessary connections & your GPU should be able to support the monitor's native resolution of 3840 x 2160 and its native 60 Hz Refresh Rate.Both the HDMI ports & the DisplayPort are HDCP 2.2 compliant so the ports on your Macbook must be HDCP 2.2 compliant for a 4K signal to pass to the monitor. If you only have one port to connect to one monitor, you will need to search for an adapter that will split to two to connect two monitors but as mentioned earlier, your GPU has to be able to support multiple monitors. For additional questions, please give our computer specialists a call at 800-243-0000. ^CP
A:AnswerThis monitor cannot be overclocked. You can by a replacement power adapter, the original part number is LG EAY62933008, EAY62933012. https://lgparts.com/item/11582235/LG/EAY62933008/. ^Daphane
