LG UltraFine UHD 27-Inch 4K UHD 2160p Computer Monitor 27UN850-W, IPS with VESA DisplayHDR 400, AMD FreeSync, and USB-C, White

A very nice monitor. 4k footage looks amazingon it. Well built and very hi quality.

If you need a screen that would turn your MacBook into iMac experience, this is what youre looking for.

bought to use with a MacBook Air M1 (2020), crystal clear screen right out of the box, 4K resolution with 60 Hz refresh rate while using the USB-C cable that was included in the box with the monitor (USB-C also charges the Mac while connected). Also includes an HDMI cable. not the cheapest option out there but it looks great and works flawlessly with the Mac Air M1. hopefully the build quality lasts, well see.

Fantastic resolution! I am using it with a Mac Mini M2 without any issues. I love the Apple RGB color palette on this screen.

I am driving this monitor from an MBP 16in. The key aspects are as follows: * The software and manuals are on a CD/DVD. One might wish that at least the packing would include a physical printout of the manual. * Using the USB-C cable to connect USB-C to USB-C does not drive the monitor with all of its possible options available. * Trying to drive the monitor through a modestly-budgeted (Anker) USB-C to HDMI adaptor does not provide all of the possible options and indeed seems to give issues tracking the color calibration. * The only option that worked was to use a trusted USB-C (thunderbolt) to HDMI adaptor (I use one from iVANKY). This drives the monitor with its fullest options exposed in the menu settings. * The menu toggle is conveniently located at the center bottom. You can adjust the sound volume with left-right action. You can select the full menu options with a press. * The speakers are somewhat tinny sounding. When sound is being driven through the HDMI, you cannot control volume form the MBP, you must use the monitor hardware button (as noted above). Now that this is set up, I appreciate the 4k next to the Retina on the MBP (sitting on the right of the monitor). I appreciate the extra screen real-estate. I can have a split-view of two different apps running nicely on this monitor. Finally, I appreciate being able to toggle between different pre-sets in monitor output, such a Vivid, Custom, or Cinema. I use this to run Vivid in daylight, a lower-brightness Custom set in dimmer evening light, and Cinema for video movie streaming. Overall, this is a very good to excellent option as a second monitor to a MBP 16in.

I ordered this monitor hoping to save some space and money over going the route of a traditional 4K monitor and a USB-C/Thunderbolt docking station for my macbook. I was hoping to be able to use one cable for video, data and charging. It works, most of the time, but the USB-C features on this monitor have some frustrating issues. The monitor has issues charging my macbook, sometimes dropping the charge current to less than 10 watts, or other times stopping it entirely, which can only be resolved by power cycling the monitor. Im not sure what the power rating of the USB-A ports on the back of the monitor is. They work well enough with thumb drives, graphic tablets, keyboard & Mice, other low current items, but trying to charge an iphone from them causes a USB power error message to pop up. The audio output on the monitor is not always detected by my laptop, and often requires disconnecting and reconnecting the USB-C cable to get it to work. The mute and volume keys on the apple keyboard are disabled when using the monitors audio output which is a common problem with many cheaper digital audio interfaces, but is still frustrating when compared to dedicated desktop hubs, or USB-C monitors from Dell or Apple which still allow you to use these keys. I downloaded the software package from LG hoping that it would include drivers to enable these features or improve the reliability of the other USB-C features but it does not change anything. The display itself is gorgeous and I have no problems or complaint with it as just a monitor, but I think the USB-C implementation fails to justify its added cost over the displayport only version of the same monitor. Im making it work but will probably purchase a thunderbolt 3 hub eventually to hopefully handle charging and audio more reliably. I love the image quality of the 4k display but if I were to do it again I would either get the cheaper displayport only version of the monitor and an external hub or look at options from Dell or another manufacturer.

Not the greatest monitor I’ve ever owned but not bad for the price. Only gripes: 1. The arching stand is atheistically pleasing but functionally ridiculous. Takes up a great deal of real estate on the desk and does not seem as stable as a more traditional monitor stand. 2. Why on earth would anyone send the manual on CD in the year 2023? Either print out a one pager on how to navigate the menu system or give us a QR code to find it on your website. I just want to plug and play, not go through a wild goose chase to find out how to use all the features I paid for.

I have two LG 27UN850-W 27 Inch Ultrafine UHD (3840 x 2160) IPS Display with VESA Display HDR 400, USB Type-C monitors set up side by side. They take up a lot of real estate, both with the width of the monitors and with area consumed by both bases side by side on the desk. Takes up at least 8 inches from the stands vertical base to the tips of the semi-circular stand. Now imagine double occupancy for the dual monitors. So thats room you wont be able to fully utilize for other more desirable tasks. The monitors themselves seem to operate fine. Does have a pop-up window that appears ever so often that the cursor wont seem to engage the action button. Cursor disappears when trying to click on the window. But a main point that I want to stress is that you need to have a graphics card on your computer/source system thats adequate enough to push dual 3840 x 2160 displays if you want to take full advantage of the monitors capability.

Soy diseñador profesional y calibrador con la marca X rite de hace más de 10 años. Este monitor de 32 ultrafine debería costar máximo $445 con la opción de calibrador por aparte o como el modelo de 27 que no lo incluye. El tratamiento anti reflejo es semi matte pero no tiene un polarizado que ayude a mejorar los negros. El calibrador es simple y exclusivo para este tipo de modelos ips black pero con maña se puede usar en otros modelos, no es competencia para el xrite i1 studio. Cosas ilógicas el software de Lg, permite calibrar todos los perfiles menos el perfil HDR, lo cual es ilógico para un modelo de estos precios muestra la inferioridad de calibrador incluido. Destaco los 10 bits nativos de color y la cobertura del 98% del DCI P3, pero fuera de esos 2 detalles el monitor no cumple con sus supuestas mejoras a los IPS ultrafine o los PLS como mi antiguo Asus PB278Q. Se nota mucho el ips Glow lo cual pierde la experiencia de ese negro profundo, he visto más profundidad de negro en VA o PLS o AHVA, hablando en como ejemplo en escenas con mucho negro donde la debilidad se nota. Si destaco que color cuandos se muestra en imágenes normales en pantalla completa, no se nota tanto este error, pero al mínimo de una escena oscura salga o vea un contenido con barras negras vera lo inferior de la calidad de iluminación y el tratamiento del semi mate. Marcas chinas como INNOCN Mini LED de 32 (8+2) pueden ser una mejor opción que este modelo eso si teniendo en cuenta los contras que no incluye calibrador ni es 10 bits puro. Al final lo compre en una rebaja temporal, y quería pasarme a un monitor de 32, pero pienso que el precio correcto debe ser máximo $500 con el calibrador. Mi unidad posee un ligero sangrado en la parte inferior del panel en ambas esquinas y un leve sangrado superior izquierdo. Actualización 27 Feb 2023: El software de calibración suele aparecer de manera regular sin abrirlo. El ICC profile tanto v4 como v2 que se instalan en windows generan problemas de color en photoshop, tocando tener que quitarlos y confiar en la calibración por hardware que supuestamente queda grabada en el monitor digo supuesta porque el software no permite revisar donde se guarda dentro del monitor. Nunca tuve un problema de icc profile con Xrite solo con 3d max lo cual me hizo seguir usando el version 2 por compatibilidad.

I just got this monitor the other day and the pic quality from what I was coming from which was a old 1080P monitor 4K is amazing so far it is better then I expected and very bright I will update my review if anything comes up that is not positive but so far it is awesome !!!!!
