Review on LG 34BK95U W UltraFine UltraWide Thunderbolt 75Hz: High Dynamic Range and Tilt Adjustment by Buddy Colbert

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good monitor but issues with Thunderbolt on the new Mac Mini

This monitor looks great and works great on my desk with my laptop via HDMI. However, trying to use Thunderbolt 3 with my new Mac Mini is a bit disappointing. It works fine with HDMI and Mini, but when the Mac Mini goes to sleep via Thunderbolt, I can't connect it to the monitor without a lot of tricks (plugging/plugging cables, rotating the display). off/on, HDMI connection to confirm Mac is awake, then switch to T3 by toggling input from T3 to T3 and then back to T3, .). I wish I could understand magic. I have workarounds, but every time I leave the Mac for 10 minutes and come back to find it in sleep mode, it's excruciating and I have to go through it. I gave it 4 stars because it might not be entirely the monitor's fault, but I expect compatibility testing with Mac products considering it has Thunderbolt 3.

Pros
  • 34 inches
Cons
  • Tight color palette
