Review on LG 24UD58 B: 24 Inch Monitor with FreeSync, HDMI, and 60Hz Refresh Rate - Best Buy by Jason Matthews

In my opinion, this is an excellent monitor to use with a 2017 MacBook Pro. Note that it needs to be connected to the monitor with a USB-c to Displayport adapter (I bought the highly rated Monoprice) and a Displayport to Displayport cable to get 4k/60Hz. When connected via HDMI, it only supports 4k/30Hz (some much more expensive monitors support 4k/60Hz via HDMI). DO NOT confuse things with "Mini DisplayPort" - this interface is not used on the monitor OR the new MBP that comes with 2 or 4 USB-C/HDMI/Displayport connectors. At first I thought that the lack of other ports on the MBP (it has NO other ports!) would be a problem, but it isn't. And the connectors are VERY secure - the cables/adapters snap into place and just don't fall out. The monitor was recognized immediately after plugging it in and turning it on. ATTENTION - the power button is almost impossible to find without reading the instructions! And since it's also a joystick, I won't specify its location - the instruction is important. It works out of the box and you'll likely be notified of a firmware update. Install it now and the display setting will change to reflect this. It handles 4K/60Hz without special tuning. I don't have a problem with "leaks" - but since it just shows the monitor is on but not in use, I don't see a reason to worry about it anyway. The screen is crystal clear, updates quickly, and is great when two (or more) windows are open at the same time. I suppose there are some users who need a more expensive 4k monitor for some reason, but I have no idea why. I've surfed the web, watched 4K videos, edited RAW images and HD videos, and used Logic X for some studio shots, but didn't find anything the monitor could do better! Highly recommended.
