LG 27UP850N-W 27" 4K UHD Business Monitor

Screen looks great and performs well. But after 4 months it developed a horizontal and vertical dead pixel lines across the width and height of the monitor. Screen looks great and performs well.

Having the USB-C has come in handy more than I expected, both for charging and connecting to a Macbook - I think it is worth paying more for this over the other similar model that doesn't have it. I did notice a thin green line appear occasionally but haven't able to figure out the cause, I may have just been unlucky in getting a unit with a mysterious defect. Overall recommended.

Works perfectly with my MacBook Pro via USB-C Works perfectly with my MacBook Pro via USB-C

I am using this monitor as a main monitor for my MacBook Pro. It's perfect. The resolution, colour, contract, brightness and detail are every bit as good, and arguably better than the retina display of the MacBook. At 27 inches there is plenty of real estate. I purchased this monitor so that I could reduce my desktop clutter, and the single USB-C cable to the monitor, which also charges the MacBook achieves this perfectly. I read a lot of reviews before purchasing and some were a bit mixed. Maybe I am easily impressed compared to some, but as a photographer I know quality in colour. Can't recommend this enough if you are looking for a UHD 27...view more I am using this monitor as a main monitor for my MacBook Pro. It's perfect.

Bought two more of these, to add to our previous purchase of the equivalent model.

They have good colour, great charging of laptops, just simple and easy. Bought two more of these, to add to our previous purchase of the equivalent model.

I bought this screen as my son has one in his home office and I really wanted one. I love the size the look and the price. Substantially cheaper now then when he bought his.

I Connected the supplied USB-C cable from my Mac Mini to the Monitor USB-C port to power up the USB Hub. A Wacom CTL-400 tablet and a 2 Bay Externally Powered Sata Enclosure are connected to the Hub. The HDMI Cable(supplied) was used to connect the Mac Mini HDMI 2.1 Port to the Monitor HDMI Port. I used the Joystick beneath the lower LG Logo to select the monitor input to HDMI1. In the Monitor General Option, I also enabled the HDMIUltra HD Deep Color option under the General Option. To make the Sonoma UI usable, I used a scaled resolution of 2560x1440(the underlying resolution is still 4k).
Viewing 4k HDR Content in Youtube is simplying amazing. The Colour Rendition for Photo Editing & Viewing appears to be good; I looked at some portraiture in a celeb photographer's website, and the skin tones look excellent, with the correct amount of saturation and contrast.
The sound from the Monitor speakers with the Waves MaxxAudio Option selected, is also good compared to the Mac Mini’s speakers. Been using the Monitor for more than a forthright currently.

Has a nice sharp picture, low FPS doesn't bother me with my light gaming habits (Minecraft etc). Really like the design. However. A 4k monitor might be a bit of an overkill for some as it is a 27" monitor, not a big TV so not a very noticeable difference when compared to a 1080p monitor so you might want to go for a lower resolution and higher FPS if you're a big gamer.

Super happy with this monitor, using it with an M1 MacBook and everything renders beautifully and just plugging in a single usb-c cable for power, display and peripherals is awesome! My only nitpick is that the base of the stand is really wide so you need to have a lot of real estate to place it on, other than that I can't fault it!
