Review on LG 24MD4KL B Ultrafine 4K LED Monitor with Built-In Speakers - High-Quality Display and Immersive Sound Experience by Brian Ahmed

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice display but it sounds like it's going to fail after a few days

That's a really nice depiction. I bought it for my Mac mini to use in a dual display setup and it doesn't work with Mac mini m1 (as of 2020) as the display only has Thunderbolt inputs and the mini has exactly 1 display from Thunderbolt -Output and exactly 1 display supported via HDMI. Of course, if you really want it powerful enough, there is a way to switch from HDMI to Lightning, but most devices are designed for it and it doesn't work. Anyway, I have a nice laptop that supports dual display very well, so I plugged it in and used it for a few days before the fan started sounding like it was throttling on take off. I'm giving LG a chance to fix it so I'll be back for updates. Service issue aside, I wrote this review because I think Mac mini users should make a different choice. Even my local Apple salesman said he had cables to make it work, so not a very good guide here. Update: The display is now 100% pure white and the suggested resolution is "We'll send you a shipping label to send it in for repair". To be clear this was an overhaul (6 month warranty) at the Revain Renewed Store and beintekusa warranty. For now I would say that this is not an acceptable answer. This is a $500 display that lasted 2 days.
