Great desktop monitors

I've had several LG TVs and computer monitors so I was dying to try this dual monitor setup and so far it has definitely exceeded my expectations. screen area it contains. The overall dimensions of the system are around 48 x 24 x 24 inches and it weighs around 38 pounds. With a resolution of 2560 x 1440 and a refresh rate of 75 Hz, these monitors offer very high image quality. I'd say that's all the resolution you can use on a 27-inch screen - you won't be able to tell the difference visually…

phenomenal monitor setup that can also be a docking station

Got this to replace an old dock and single monitor setup my wife used for work. First, it is actually a daisy chain as the description says. I've read reviews that say it's not true that every monitor needs to be connected to a PC or docking station, but that's not true. Here's how to set it up (which isn't in the supplied manual, but I figured it out since I'm a techie). First, install the stand itself on the table and attach the monitors to it. Then, using a DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable…

  • expensive

This setup really makes a big difference for me. My wife and I both work from home, but we often go to meetings at the same time. So one of us uses the dining table, which used to be a real problem. In front of this facility there was a mess on the table that needed cleaning before dinner as we require everyone to be seated. That is the solution. Everything connects to our two laptops with just 1 USB/c cable, we can share the mouse, keyboard and camera without disconnecting anything, it works…

  • Monitor speakers are too quiet.

After some silly user error (I was thinking about reverse VESA mounts) I was able to get it up and running in about 40 minutes. I have a custom hickory worktable and I need to assist the engineers by using a good thick rubber as the surface for the top attachment of the table clamp. I usually put a styrofoam wedge in there to protect surfaces like this and luckily with this one I didn't have to! They made the installation bulletproof. Positioning of the main bracket bar is allowed in two…

The quality is better than expected.

They're really heavy and you might need a good table to start with. Nevertheless, thanks to the good design, I can assemble it myself very easily. I use two monitors every day for my work and when I upgraded them I was surprised. are easy to use and you can set up the monitor to your liking.

Not calibrated and colors everywhere

I'm not sure if buying the latest monitor available plays a role in this, but either the monitor is from the factory or I received a defective unit. It's hard to see in the pictures, but the white tones aren't so accurate that you can even see some yellow. A monitor powered by USB-C or DisplayPort will not run at 60Hz. Stand by default. which prevents me from giving this review one star. Please either replace it with a new one or give me my hard earned money back.

Flexible. Ergo independent work that is worth the money

I wanted a dual screen setup to work with one monitor in portrait and landscape orientation. This idiot exceeded my expectations. The monitors are of excellent quality and this stand... oh stand. It's hefty but once on the table it's very stable and thanks to the horizontal bar it sits under the monitors so I can easily rotate it up/down/right/left to wherever I want. If you want vertical mount you need to partially assemble your hands but every review on youtube if this product tells you its…

Suitable for casual gaming and productive work.

Let's be clear that 4k-8k displays are all the rage right now. So you can't compare it with such displays. I switched to these guys from a 144Hz, 144p "gaming" display. I do 85% of my work on an Omen laptop with a 1060 graphics card. I don't play competitive games, but I love detailed games. Other than that, these monitors are very good. Really good quality. The only issue I had was using a DisplayPort cable to connect both devices. Luckily, one YouTuber checked out the display and mentioned…

Great combo with easy setup

This LG is a great way to get a dual screen setup and a stand that can be customized to fit just about any need. Assembling the stand was fairly easy with just six screws on the bracket and handle and then attaching the base to a desk or table. The monitors then pretty much slide into the Visa slot, which is very easy once you do this a few times. To remove, just slide the latch at the bottom of the screen and you're good to go. In my case, the dual screen wiring was very simple with two HDMI…
