Great solution for a Mac display
By Dick V.H. on Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2022
I've used this monitor for about 2 weeks. Very satisfied. The 24" size is perfect for my use. After decades of using two computers, a desktop iMac or Mac w/monitor along with various MacBook Pros, etc. - I wanted to consolidate down to one Mac. I purchased one of the new M2 MacBook Airs, connected the LG monitor via the supplied Thunderbolt 3 cable and voilà - instantly worked. Single cable solution. I connected several hubs to the monitor USB-C ports and all the various peripherals (external drives, printer, etc). Screen quality is indistinguishable from the 21.5" 4K "Retina" iMac I previously used. There have been comments about the LG monitors versus the Apple display options. Appearance, the stand, build quality, etc. The appearance is fine (IMHO), may be not as refined / pretty as the Apple studio display but looks great with my new midnight MacBook Air. The stand is quite heavy and and the 24" display is very stable and doesn't move or wobble. The build quality seems fine. (think LG TV) Reliability TBD. My only comment is that some people have had failed / intermittent connector problems with this or the 27" version. The back panels are slightly angled and the connectors plug in at perhaps a 10 degree angle. Reaching around back I'd see people, including myself, trying to put in the connectors off-angle. To minimize potential issues I plan on plugging cables in once to the monitor (I.E. not changing connections all the time) and connecting / removing devices from the other end of the cable connected hubs.. Last - no webcam, microphone? I don't use these often and the notebook has them when I need it. This would be a different story with a Mac Mini or Studio. So far this monitor more than meets my expectations.

Warning!!!
By Douglas Clark Bolton on Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2023
I purchased this refurbished monitor to work with a new 2023 Mac mini. I bought this monitor as a birthday gift for my wife and received it February 2023. Her birthday was in March and worked well for a month. Nice picture, good camera and microphone. Then one day it just stopped coming on. It was at that point beyond the return date to Amazon. After hours on line without any luck I tried buying a new replacement cord. It immediately started working again. Then in early may it started going on and off every few seconds. I checked the power supply and the cord and they are fine. It acts like a internal short. I got her a cheap 13 inch monitor with no camera, no microphone so she can at least use her birthday gift. This monitor was obviously defective or poorly refurbished before I received it. There goes a $1000.00 with a so sorry out of warranty.
