    Customers are mixed about the brightness of the monitor.

The display is set to sleep and the power button has an absurdly bright LED light that constantly blinks when the display is on.

    Think I received a Korean model, but will keep based on the price point
    4 Stars
    Think I received a Korean model, but will keep based on the price point
    Initial thoughts after receiving this monitor.I ordered the monitor from the seller dayssale at $450. I believe they are actually selling the Korean model as the monitor came with an adapter for the plug to convert it to an American socket (and was shipped from Korea). I don't particularly like this because there is no ground prong. I believe the model they are selling is 27UD88 versus 27UD88-W based on the model number listed on the box. Also, the power brick associated with this is rather large.As far as the monitor is concerned, the picture is great. I'm not a gamer and haven't done any testing with the free sync configs. I have this hooked up with a Rankie mini-DP to DP cable, on a 2015 Macbook Pro. I am getting 60 fps with this setup. The Macbook will wake up the monitor when it goes to sleep, but there is a slight delay that causes the laptop to think there is no monitor connected for a second, then reconnects. This happens fairly quickly, but it causes any application you had opened on the laptop screen (when the monitor went to sleep) to move to the monitor when it wakes back up. A slight annoyance for me since I keep my email client on the laptop screen and have to move it over whenever I wake it up.Using this cable also passes through the audio to the monitor, which I hooked up speakers to via the headphone jack on the monitor. This will disable the ability to control the volume levels via the Macbook and require volume adjustments to be made with the physical button that is under the monitor (joystick type button) or via the OSD software you can install on the Macbook.LG's explanation of some of the settings for the monitor such as their smart energy saving feature is vague at best. I have no idea what low versus high does for this setting and there is no real description that I can find. Also, when searching their site for product support, they have nothing available yet including the manuals for this monitor. I did download the software for the 27UD68 model and this worked to control the OSD settings for the monitor.I can confirm the USB-C port will rapid charge a Nexus 6P. Additionally, you can turn off / on the quick charge for the USB 3 ports, but this will disable any upstream data going through these ports (per warning on the OSD, have not confirmed myself). It should be noted that you can only turn on the QC for both ports or neither... so, if you wanted to quick charge your phone while using the other port for a mouse, keyboard, USB hub, etc... this would not work. I do not have a USB-A to USB-A cable, so I have not been able to test the integration of the USB ports on the monitor for data purposes.Monitor stand allows for movement up / down and rotation to vertical position. It will tilt up about 30 degrees, but will not tilt down past the 90 degree position. VESA mount option as well.Scaling resolutions in Macbook Pro Mid 2015 w/ AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2048 MB:1504x8461920x10802560x14403008x16923840x21604/18/16 - Update regarding USB port integration:Now that the official documentation is available for this model on LG's site, I know that only the USB-C port on the monitor will work for upstream data. If you're using a Macbook with a USB C port, this should work for both the picture display and the data. For myself, I would need to run a USB-A to USB-C cable to the monitor in order for the other USB ports on the monitor to function. The problem here is that I lose the ability to fast charge my Nexus 6P directly off the monitor's USB-C port with this configuration.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect monitor for a MacBook Pro using USB-C
    Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2020
    I have had this monitor for any two years now. At first I used it at Wework a couple times a week for a few hours each time. It just needing 2 cables to function made for a very clean and minimalistic environment.

    Last year I left the shared space and set up a home studio for myself. I got a desk that had a laptop basket at the bottom and I now use this monitor as my dedicated computer monitor. I have only opened my MacBook maybe 5-6 times in the last year for a total use time of maybe an hour. Pretty much every time it's related to updating my MacBook Pro. (So much for a touch bar haha)

    I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2018 now and at Wework I would use a 13" 2017 model. This monitor is just perfect and very well priced for it having USB-C and being 4K, truly outstanding!

    The included mount is very good, but you can always use your own VESA mount as it's compatible.

    I've used it for hundreds of hours playing MMORPG games online and it performs magnificently. The color settings are great and I often use dimmed settings to read manga late at night with the room lights dimmed.

    The colors are great for editing pictures and the screen size is just perfect for drawing on Photoshop using a tablet or iPad! Between the MacBook and the monitor's ports, I can connect many devices. This includes my Blue Yeti microphone that I use for video and audio work, as well as my desk fan and cable hub for when I need to plug extra devices such as eReaders, SD cards, and the rare ethernet for intensive online shooters.

    It's a perfect monitor for anyone wanting the simplicity of USB-C PD pass through and 4K screen quality.

    Imagine rating this monitor 1 and 2 ✨ you probably have a faulty piece or just are dumb enough to not appreciate all the beautiful pixels.

    LG delivers 💯 with its glorious 4K display and if it were a car, it'd be a Lambo for sure.

    Unboxing was a pleasant experience and once it booted, wow!

    Registering it on lg.com was quite easy too

    The screen real estate I got was just amazing!
