5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with 2022 Macbook Air M2
I bought this because it was recommended by the New York Times Wirecutters. I had some concerns about my 2022 Macbook Air M2 not displaying correctly on this portable display, because of Apple's Retina display scaling that can render text and images fuzzy on non-Apple displays, but I am beyond impressed with the picture quality on this display using my M2 Air with the default USB C cable the display came with. The color and clarity are fantastic. (Check out the Wirecutters article "The Best Portable Monitor," By Dave Gershgorn, Updated May 12, 2023, for more details about Mac fuzziness and a possible fix if you have this experience.)The resolution settings defaulted to 1280x800 (image/text were still nice at crisp at this resolution) but that was easy enough to change in my display settings. I just had to go into Display settings, select the external monitor, turn on the "See All Resolutions" settings to show all possible resolutions. The text is a little too small when the display is set to 2000x1600, but it's just right for my eyes on 1920x1200. Putting this here in case it's helpful to someone else. Annoyingly, the resolution seems to reset whenever I reboot my laptop... but that's a Mac issue, not a problem with the monitor.Setting the display to portrait (vertical) orientation using a Mac was super easy. Just go into the Display settings, click on the external display, and look for the Rotation setting. Set this to 90° and you're done.I was also concerned about my M2 Air not powering this portable display adequately, but digging around for the wattage requirements gave me hope. (This display requires USB PD with 7.5W.) I plugged the display into my Air and it powered up flawlessly, though that's using the burly USB C cable the display came with. Not sure if it will work with a different USB C cable... that's a test for another day.Not a super fan of the weird magnetic stand/cover hybrid, which does not feel terribly stable, but the display is so lightweight it doesn't stress the magnet at all. Still, I'll potentially hang it on the wall over my laptop instead.I do appreciate the two USB C ports and the brightness button. Would be nice if the button also controlled contrast, color, etc, as it seems that you need special Windows software to control all of that. Womp womp.But other than this one caveat, I've very happy with my purchase. It's a pretty sweet display. It's much more expensive than the others I considered, such as the ASUS ZenScreen MB16ACV, which was also mentioned in Wirecutters. If you're looking for a cheaper option, check that one out... but I couldn't find any clear details on how well it would work with a Mac, which is why I ended up buying this LG model.
5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely amazing for travel. Gorgeous display.
Bought this to take with me when I work and travel and it is incredible. It was a bit trick to figure out the stand, but once you get it, it's easy. Tip: see where the magnet connects to the back of the display on the side and the bottom, and then you'll get a feel for it. Only took a couple tries and now I get it propped up seamlessly. It's super light and the display is really crisp. The only thing that would make it better is if it supported a higher refresh rate than 60hz, but that wasn't my intended use, so I'm happy with it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Got a second screen love it!!
Got one for hubby couple years ago now I joined the train. Beautiful image, great quality. Really nice screen for price.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect portable monitor
I was in the market for a monitor and wanted to go with LG as I have heard they work seamlessly with MacBooks. Because I primarily work at a hospital, I needed it to be portable. This monitor is amazing. The colors and text are crisp (I prefer the 1920x1200 resolution) and connection is easy with the included USB-C cable. I wish there was an option for it to be touch screen, then I would give it 10 stars!! I kept the sleeve it came with to protect the screen while in transport.
5.0 out of 5 stars On time , I have the same one but older
The new desigm is stupid , the stand/ cover changed and it’s stupid
3.0 out of 5 stars Great monitor. Dreadful stand.
Just what were LG thinking? A beautiful, bright, lightweight, hi-res monitor with a cheap and nasty stand that doesn’t even work. Shame on you, LG product designers.
4.0 out of 5 stars great screen, bad cable
The quality of the screen is on the top end of the market, not really value for the money but really good definition (close to my main laptop), super light, can have it in landscape or portrait mode. Can play games on it.Unfortunately, the cable provided is overly thick and broke fairly quickly with little use. LG does not provide warranty for it.
1.0 out of 5 stars Broke after 1 month of use
Great screen but very poor quality. After one month of use it broke
