Review on πŸ’» LG 24MD4KL B Ultrafine Monitor with Built-in Speakers and 4K IPS Display by Maxwell Rayphee

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Appearance - A +. There is no functionality.

I've had them for several years now and use them daily in my office. When they work, they look great. My problem is that about 2% of the time the displays won't turn on when plugged in. It is possible that this is a problem with the macOS operating system. I usually have to power cycle everything to reconnect. This happens about once every few months. Another problem is that the auto-brightness is too sensitive to bright light. I have a window that is about 10 feet away, about 15 degrees from the monitor. I think the monitor picks it up or the white wall behind me. And as I move my head from side to side, the brightness automatically adjusts from very dim (20%) to retina bright (100%). To avoid this, I turned off auto-brightness entirely. Ship mode works great on my MacBook Pro, putting out a full 90 watts. I like not having to connect multiple cables as I come and go. The monitor can act as a docking station with a daisy-chain Thunderbolt connector and 3 additional USB-C ports. In general, I would recommend getting a cheaper monitor set. They look good but aren't reliable enough to justify their price.

Pros
  • The large screen size makes it ideal for multitasking and working with multiple documents.
Cons
  • Monitor colors are washed out.
