After a month of using this monitor here’s my quick thoughts. My configuration: 2018 MBP 15” i7 32 GB Ram Connected through Thunderbolt 3 1) It’s HUGE. I’m still not use to it after all this time. 2) if you set the resolution to anything over 1440 everything is to small to even see 3) the screen real-estate is Amazing if you can actually use it 4) Sometimes my Mac will not recognize the monitor (this is more of a compatibility issue with new MacBooks and can be fixed by plugging it in and out a few times) 5) Using the back USB ports via passthrough works like a charm and it’s super helpful 6) Adjustable heights are more than enough + screen wobble is not a problem on stable surface 7)UI of the monitor menu and settings looks like it was made 10 years ago 8) Power delivery is super helpful for a setup like mine 9) Speakers aren’t that bad, could be better for price 10) The power cord is short 11)despite minor comparability issues It’s by far the best monitor I’ve owned

Running through a MacBook Pro summer 2018 I9 32gb computer using lightning cord provided. Running ABSOLUTELY NO ISSUES CONNECTING. Amazing screen, beautiful picture. So sharp.

This monitor looks great and works perfect on my desk with my laptop over HDMI. Attempting to use the Thunderbolt 3 with my new Mac Mini is a bit disappointing though. It will work fine with HDMI and the mini, but when the Mac Mini goes to sleep hooked up over Thunderbolt, I cant get it to connect to the monitor without a bunch of tricks (unplugging/plugging back in the cable, turning display off/on, plugging in HDMI to confirm Mac is awake and then switch to T3, changing input off T3 then back to T3, ...). I wish I could figure out the magic. I have workarounds, but it is a pain in the ass to do every time I leave the mac for 10 minutes and come back to find it in sleep mode and have to go through this. I gave 4 stars because it might not be completely the monitors fault, but I would expect interoperability testing with with Mac products given it has a Thunderbolt 3.

Caveat: Im replacing a 30" 2560x1440 Apple Cinema Display only because, after nine years of constant use, its pixel fatigue has become my eye fatigue. Being one of the best displays ever made, its not an easy act to follow. But still…. This thing is ugly. If youve put any effort into your environment, you wont be able to tolerate it unless its cheap, ugly white plastic back is to the wall. The stand is worse than ugly. Its not unreasonable it should have a big footprint, but the not particularly successful attempt to make it look stylish has resulted in a design that prevents using the space beneath the screen for paper, your pad, or much of anything else. Gaah. It does permit effortless height and tile adjustment, provided you dont do so by grasping it in any of the intuitive places youll reflexively reach for. (The usual translated-from-Korean-into-English-by-a-native-speaker-of-Hindi docs are quite hysterical on this point). The bezel at least minimal, black, and inconspicuous, but its no masterpiece of industrial design either. The whole thing feels cheap, like none of its designers really loved it. And theres more… The bad documentation (on a CD - how quaint) is downright threatening on using anything other than the supplied cordage, but the cables and power cord are so short unpacking them feels like a comedy routine. Unless your CPU sits on your desk next to the display and happens to have an AC outlet behind it, youll likely have to make some accommodations. (I ended up drilling holes in furniture.) Its ludicrous: the power cord is the shortest in my house. After 30 years of IT work, I of course have quite a cable graveyard, and the supplied data cables are also the shortest in the house. The joystick used to control its ridiculous number of settings is, like the stand, something designed to appeal to twelve year old gameboys that is in practice just plain annoying. Its a _terrible_ interface, particularly when youre sitting at a computer and realize you have a ridiculous toy in lieu of a good software solution. I dont want to touch the screen. Ever. I have great interface under my hands, but LG chose not to use it. The app LG does supply is worse than the silly joystick – a lame, ill-conceived thing that only adds insult to injury. Fortunately, I dont need or want 95% of its features, and its easy to pretend the whole mess doesnt exist. Despite being compatible on paper, I had trouble getting the display to play nicely with my Radeon RX 580 GPU. LG support is nonexistent. Im not sure whats required to get their attention, but it appears nothing short of plane ticket and a gun will do it. Their online forums are Kafkaesque in their absurdity. (I learned nothing about my display, but did garner several interesting facts about washing machines. Yes, you heard me. Washing machines.). Ive given up on ever seeing 5120x2160, and dont really want to read hi def text the size of bee feet anyhow, but still. Of course thats all (ahem) peripheral. The screen is the thing, right? About the screen…. Its wide, but its also short. After two days of using it, Im still not sure thats such a good thing. Im not clear the blockbuster movie aspect ratio is the thing for desktop work. If youre intent is to watch action movies on it, you may feel very differently. It sits in my field of vision with its full width out of my eyespan, and its full height not filling it. Disappointing, but clearly my bad for not taping it out on the wall before I bought it. The picture is most definitely gorgeous, and Ive made life difficult by locating it in a place where the ambient light varies drastically, and where glare could be a problem. It isnt. The picture is gorgeous. I had to tweak the color a bit. (I understand TV newscasters are in fact clowns, but I have a thing about clowns and prefer that the faces on my screen not resemble them.) Bottom line? If I can find something better, Ill return the LG. Im not sure there is anything better, other than mortgaging a cat or two and acquiring Apples latest offerings for more than the down payment my parents put on the house I grew up in. Well see. I wonder if theres an Apple 30" Cinema Display out there somewhere thats been sitting sealed in a box for the past 10 years.

The stand is crap.. see-yah.. order your own metal mount. It will Dominate screens around it with Color, Radiance and Brightness.. Picture twice the vertical screen space you currently experience.. with more clarity and vivid color. Three screens work of that seamlessly running off of one media port.. I have great screens connected out of my occupied peripheral for incoming email.. file managements.. etc.. Im only using a G970.. i expected to need to upgrade immediately.. at the moment i have not seen any reason to.. very please with the purchase. The seller helped with their excellent expedience. This Monitor has brought life to old applications and entertainments.. For whatever my opinions worth.. If you on the ledge considering... Jump

This monitors vertical viewing area is 2" shorter than a 32" 4K monitor. It is a step down from a 32" 4K monitor in terms of usability, for professional office work. It needs 3" more vertical screen space, while keeping the aspect ratio constant. I returned it and bought a 43" 4K monitor, since there dont seem to be any 4K-8K monitors of sufficient height between 34" and 40". Most widescreens are too short, or they dont have 4K resolution. Im using this for writing code, photographic editing, and productivity applications, not gaming or video.

The color accuracy, resolution and uniformity is the best i have ever seen. Response time is 60Hz if you want this for gaming it’s not for you. İf you work with graphics, 3D Design, Photography than you good to go. İ’m using this monitor next to my iMacPro and sharpness and color accuracy is the almost same. Some of the cases LG is little richer color profile. iMac screen colors look like little wash out next to this. And most important screen real estate is almost same with 27 5K screen just little narrow, but you can gain space with left and right sides.

After not exactly a smooth purchase process from a third party, I hooked up this monitor to an 2018 Mac Book Pro and was blown away with this monitor. This display is the best display I have ever seen, it looks as good as the 5K display on the 2019 iMac. I am very pleased with this purchase and will be using this to edit 4K video.

Best 5k/2k monitor available on the market.. beautiful resolution and colors. Design of the leg stand is elegant and minimalist. Have been using it with Windows10 and worked perfectly right out of the box and was able to detect the correct video resolution automatically.

Great screen quality, the button for on/off/select features is a little cumbersome...
