Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a nice monitor. the fact of having its own control is just lovely, no dongles or weird buttons to work your way around it. Sound is decent, poor bass but to just monitor the speakers come in handy. Picture quality is beautiful too, you won't really notice any pixels if working on a MacBook or other brands, beat to use in FHD when using a MB Pro. Bought mine as an open box unit and it is just perfect.

Regarding this question, since everyone's situation is different, the answer is different for everyone. Let me honestly talk about my feelings and reflections after taking the STAT 198 course. My recent purchase of the LG monitor, which I bought at a $120 discount, has been a positive experience. I would give this 4K monitor a 4/5 rating. The resolution is good, and the color is vibrant. Considering the LG brand and its 4K resolution with such a reasonable price, it's great for students or people who use it for education or office purposes. But there is one issue with the monitor. When it's connected to a Macbook as an extended monitor, its resolution varies without notification. Specifically, the monitor provides a 4K option the first time when it's connected to a Mac. There is no problem if the Macbook is on. However, when your MacBook's display is off or in sleeping mode, then when you turn the Macbook on again, the LG monitor would decrease its resolution to 1080P automatically. Besides, its clarity becomes much worse. However, when you use the remote to switch the input resources on the monitor to another channel and then change it back to the original input channel, its resolution will return to normal. I don't know what caused such an issue.

The monitor has an IPS screen with a good image and good colors. It has a browser, although somewhat slow, but it is efficient if you have to use it. You can download light games and you don't need a PC to use it. You can also use the Nvidia program and play your games without needing a high-end PC. It is nice and you can use wireless keyboards and mouse.

I purchased this monitor to use it as a second display for my M3 iMac. It works wonderfully. I also have my Apple TV connected to. It does have a great picture when streaming. I like this monitor so much that I wanna get a second one. I pulled my iMac out of the picture and have the M4 Mac mini connected to both of them as a dual display set up once again great picture, quality and I have had no issues with this configuration. They do come with preinstalled software from LG. You can install your favorite streaming apps straight to the monitor once again the screen quality and the picture quality are great. The only complaint I have is that with both monitors on one remote controls both monitors so you have to kind of get a feel for that, but that’s really nothing major at all. The Mac mini is connected to each monitor with the USB-C thunderbolt cables. I strongly recommend these monitors.

Overall im happy with my purchase, I got it on sale for $250 but I wouldve probably still bought it at $350. The refresh rate is low but not super noticeable when just browsing the web and whatnot. The only issue I have is that some things on the screen are hard to see at a normal viewing distance, but it would strain my eyes to sit any closer. Yeah you can can mess with your settings and turn up the zoom ratio but thats not the point. You should have the expectation of having a good experience at the manufacturers recommended settings. Other than that i think its a good deal for the price, especially on sale.

I LIVE the monitor, its a great combination of monitor &tv. I give 4 stars because 3 scrolls are missing, they are essential to stablize the base. The monitor itself is good, but then i ended up getting replacement scrolls on amazon to finally assemble it. Overall its a great option, but check all the parts first before you start assemling it.

This could be a perfect home office monitor. I have just used it for a few days and like it so far. I use it for web browsing and document editing and watch some video on it, so won't be too picky about it. The color rendition is pleasant. I don't use it for photo editing, so didn't measure it. Text is OK, not as sharp as higher end professional models. It's fast enough for watching videos. It's a smart monitor with webOS 23. There are plenty of preinstalled apps, including popular ones such as YouTube, Netflix and Apple TV. It also offers LG Channels which is free and has many channels. Quality control leaves quite some to be desired. On my unit, on the right, the casing is warped, leaving an uneven gap over 1mm between the casing and the display panel (see attached picture).

Plugged in using included HDMI cable and apple adaptor. Once you set the monitor to PC output, it just works with my MacBook Air. There are many resolutions and they all look clear and the colors are beautiful. The highest 4K resolution makes everything tiny so I use one or two below that. I have not used the TV. But for my laptop this thing is great. Also the white bezel and stand color looks really mellow and relaxing.

Great product for the price! Looks great and works great. I am using it as a secondary monitor and it is beautiful.

Good quality of resolution 4k, i can watch Netflix without pc connection. Slick design. Good to have usb c connectivity

I use this monitor in my semi truck. I just turn on a movie on my iPhone and connect via type c. Everything works fine. The sound is enough. There is a sleep timer. For this money it is a good thing. The disadvantage is that there is no type c cable in the kit. I had to buy it for 30$.

Good monitor, excellent picture and easy to use and set up was simple.

I'm satisfied with the monitor, even though I don't need it as a TV. It's a great option for those who could use it. My main issue is that I have a smart TV at home, so when I turn it on, the monitor also powers on.

Excellent monitor, sharp display, excellent buy!!!

Fantastic monitor. I didn’t even need to buy a TV. Im shocked this isn’t way more expensive

MyView smart monitor is a good monitor with its 4K display and HDR potential, the monitor's internal oS being built-in to the monitor itself to use as a hub outside of being connected to a computer is great for your favorite streaming apps and accessing WFH tools such as Microsoft 365 and Google applications all without a PC and even pairing with Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to work without a computer. Multiple ports give assurance that the monitor will be compatible with all your devices. The remote control for the monitor makes this easy to control without having to use buttons on the monitor itself. Although the product is nearly flawless, connecting many of the accessories, such as the power source or HDMI, to this monitor can be cumbersome. Using solely the USB-C connection, which also charges my laptop, did not provide the same clarity or picture quality as the HDMI connection, presenting a hindrance for me. Still, with the possibilities of this monitor and the simple design that virtually frameless this is a really solid monitor that will generally look good and is ideal for work and school from home.

I upgraded to the LG MyView 27” UHD monitor to add smart TV functionality to my dual-monitor work setup. My previous secondary monitor was HD-only, which made it hard to work on spreadsheets side-by-side due to the resolution difference. This 4K monitor solved that and added some impressive versatility. Getting this monitor set up was a breeze—just unbox it, clip the stand in, and secure it with three screws. The flat white design with average-sized bezels gives it a clean and classic look. I also appreciate the matte finish of the screen, as it cuts down on glare from the windows in my office. Build quality is solid, and it fits well in my workspace. The MyView monitor has two HDMI ports, a USB-C, and two USB-A ports, offering some basic hub capability. If you rely on DisplayPort, though, keep in mind this model doesn’t have one. I had to make some adjustments since my dock has only one HDMI out, but I managed with my other monitor on DisplayPort. For my setup, this configuration works, but it’s something to check based on your gear. The smart TV features are where this monitor stands out. Initially, it was a bit strange to connect a monitor to Wi-Fi, but the WebOS setup is straightforward. While I’d like a simpler interface with fewer pre-installed apps (I only use about a third of them), the smart functionality is just what I was looking for. Now I can keep the news on in the background or easily switch to TV mode when guests are staying in the office. For close-up, everyday use, the speakers are more than adequate. I don’t use them for anything too loud, but they’re clear enough for watching a movie from a short distance. They work great as a secondary function for TV watching, though I wouldn’t rely on this as the main entertainment center for a larger room. Overall I'm pretty happy with this monitor as an addition to my setup, the UHD (4K) resolution looks sharp in my setup and the convenient smart TV features that make it perfect for work, play, and everything in between. If you’re looking for a flexible display that can double as a casual TV, this is a great choice.

I’ve been using this monitor for a few weeks, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The design is sleek and modern, fitting perfectly into my workspace. The image quality is outstanding with vibrant colors, sharp 4K resolution, and excellent viewing angles. It handles everyday tasks effortlessly and performs well. The build quality feels sturdy, and setup was quick and straightforward. Highly recommend it for anyone who wants a reliable display that also looks great.

I purchased two of these monitors to use in a Dual 27 inch 4K productivity Work-From-Home Setup. My hardware configuration is as follows: -Microsoft Surface Laptop 5 Business Class -Microsoft Surface Thunderbolt 4 Dock -Dual LG My View 27" 4K Monitors (Side by Side) -8bitdo NEW Retro Keyboard (Love it too) -Logitech MX Master 3S Mouse -NES Classic 2018 Edition Connected to a monitor These Monitors work extremely well for this productivity work from home setup I have. The image quality of the IPS 4K 60 HZ monitors look great and they fit on my desk perfectly without any overhang on either side and they aren't too big like if I would have gone with 32inch displays. I'm able to use the monitors in different ways with having a dual setup. I like that versatility. A lot of people complain about the built-in speakers, I actually find them perfectly acceptable and fine for my needs. One thing to note with my setup with the Surface Laptop 5 and the Surface thunderbolt dock. Even though the Dock has all USB-C video output ports and these monitors have USB-C inputs for upstream. Using two Thunderbolt / USB-C cables did not allow both monitors to work at 4K 60 Hz Refresh rate. One would work at 4K 60 Hz and the other would do 4K at 30 Hz. No matter what I did. What solved the issue was buying the J5create USB-C to HDMI 2.1 Cables and using those instead, hooked up to the HDMI 1 input on these monitors. That allowed me to get the full 4K 60 Hz on both monitors without any issues. I've used some of the Smart T.V. functionality on them like Netflix and AirPlay 2 which both work great. The only thing you need to be aware of when you have these in a dual display setup is that the remote uses IR and will trigger both displays if you don't cover one of the displays IR receiver to the bottom of it. It's not a big deal to me as when I want to use the second monitor or something else, I just cover the IR on the one I don't want to get triggered and do what I need to do. I would recommend these for the purposes I outlined in my review. The price I bought them at on sale made this a great buy.
