Great solution for a Mac display
By Dick V.H. on Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2022
I've used this monitor for about 2 weeks. Very satisfied. The 24" size is perfect for my use. After decades of using two computers, a desktop iMac or Mac w/monitor along with various MacBook Pros, etc. - I wanted to consolidate down to one Mac. I purchased one of the new M2 MacBook Airs, connected the LG monitor via the supplied Thunderbolt 3 cable and voilà - instantly worked. Single cable solution. I connected several hubs to the monitor USB-C ports and all the various peripherals (external drives, printer, etc). Screen quality is indistinguishable from the 21.5" 4K "Retina" iMac I previously used. There have been comments about the LG monitors versus the Apple display options. Appearance, the stand, build quality, etc. The appearance is fine (IMHO), may be not as refined / pretty as the Apple studio display but looks great with my new midnight MacBook Air. The stand is quite heavy and and the 24" display is very stable and doesn't move or wobble. The build quality seems fine. (think LG TV) Reliability TBD. My only comment is that some people have had failed / intermittent connector problems with this or the 27" version. The back panels are slightly angled and the connectors plug in at perhaps a 10 degree angle. Reaching around back I'd see people, including myself, trying to put in the connectors off-angle. To minimize potential issues I plan on plugging cables in once to the monitor (I.E. not changing connections all the time) and connecting / removing devices from the other end of the cable connected hubs.. Last - no webcam, microphone? I don't use these often and the notebook has them when I need it. This would be a different story with a Mac Mini or Studio. So far this monitor more than meets my expectations.

DO NOT BUY - broke after 8 months - horrible customer service - LG & Asurion warrantees useless
By V on Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2021
First of all, a jagged line of pixels appears and disappears running down the center of the screen. The bigger issue is the display completely stopped working after 8 months. It charges but nothing comes up on the screen - just a dead black screen. Changing cables, laptops, outlets etc did not help, it's an issue with the monitor. LG is the absolute WORST. Spent 2 weeks on the phone with customer service with zero progress even though this broken more-than-a-thousand-dollar product is still fully covered under warrantee. Every time the call ends with them saying they will email me a shipping label and I should get it in one day. It's bad enough that the repair will take over a month at this point, but they will NOT send me the shipping label to send in the monitor for repair. Every single time I call back it's a painful hour on the phone with them with zero progress. Here are some of the excuses I've heard for not emailing me the shipping label which make me wonder if they are purposefully trying to avoid honoring the warrantee: - It may take 24 hours for the email to go through. - It may take 2-3 business days for the email to go through. - You need to pay before the repair can be made [backpedalled that after I objected and asked 4 times what costs I need to pay. Then they confirmed my warrantee says I do not need to pay for any repairs.] - Is the correct phone number to reach you at [some random number I've never heard of]? - It was sent to the wrong department, I need to generate a new case. [So the MANAGER at LG who handled the case sent it to the wrong department, after being on the phone with me for an hour expressing they would prioritize the case. What?] Don't buy this monitor, I really regret buying it.
