Review on LG 32UN880-B UltraFine 31.5" 4K Monitor - Tilt, Pivot, Height Adjustment, Connectivity by Peter Damain

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Just give them a try, but cable warning ahead

Okay although I bought 2 of these in October 2021 I only use them as I had to build my desk. I installed 2 and did a quick test on my 2 year old MSI Creator gaming laptop. I connected it via the included HDMI cable and it couldn't handle 4K stably. It started to flicker and periodically went out for 1-2 seconds, then the image reappeared, etc. A complete nightmare. I grabbed an HDMI cable from one of my work monitors and voila, all is well. Conclusion: The HDMI cables supplied with the monitors are 100% junk. Shame on you LG. Moving on: I disconnected HDMI and borrowed Dell's D6000S universal dock, which was also used for a work laptop, and connected two LG monitors to my MSI gaming laptop via USB-C. The monitors, in turn, were connected to the universal dock using the DisplayPort cables that came with the working monitors (Lenovo ThinkVision). Two monitors easily showed 4K at 60Hz. If you want a dual 4K setup, choose this Dell Dock. I may update the review in the future as I've only just started using monitors. 1 star deduction for now because of crappy HDMI cables.
