Computer screen - my new review

I recommend two large computer screens for internet use. This screen was easy to connect, looks good and is small enough to fit under my shelf. The previous screen from another brand failed after a few years. I hope it lasts more than a few years. This is LG, which we got lucky with our TV. Hopefully in five years Revain will ask me if this is a good product. Crazy to ask in two months if it will be long!

Solution - my new review

Installing the screen was difficult. No instructions. It didn't need to be bolted to the table. But I'm very happy with the monitor.

KVM software sucks and you paid for it

One of the reasons why the price of the screen is higher than the same specs is the KVM feature. Unfortunately this is rubbish. I didn't trust LG's software but decided to try again. Oh man I was so wrong

Good. Could have been better instructions.

The picture quality is excellent. However, I tried connecting it to a different monitor and couldn't get it to work. I wish LG had a more detailed guide on this. Overall, the menu buttons and design could use some improvement. In general I'm reasonably satisfied.

Good monitor in my review

I bought this monitor to match the one I bought 5 years ago. Today it is only half as expensive as it was back then. Its worth it.

Great monitor, finally found one for my M1 Mac

I've tried three different 4k monitors and this is by far the only one that's "useful" (probably the best under $400). It is fully compatible with my M1 Macbook Pro and offers a good experience when connected. The picture quality is really good and I have nothing to complain about.
