Great monitor, horrible remote
BUYER BEWARE!!! Depending on your use case this may not affect you, but given mine it’s a deal breaker. If you plan on using more than one of these in the same room, please pay attention and stay away! I bought three of these for my kids who all share the same room for Christmas. They each have their own Nintendo Switches which works great with the HDMI port, and also I was planning on them being able to use the smart side of the monitor to view the streaming services we have subscribed to as well as YouTube and such, but it has turned into a nightmare.The remotes that come with this monitor are infrared and ONLY infrared despite this monitor having Bluetooth capabilities. If you have two or more of these monitors in close vicinity (or say as a dual monitor setup), any time you push a button on one remote it will affect all monitors. So when one of my kids is gaming on one monitor and another goes to use their monitor, as soon as they click the power button it turns that monitor on and the one that was already on off. Cue the madness. Same with volume via the remote, trying to select a streaming service, video, HDMI input, etc.I have been in contact with LG support, and they recommended trying their LG magic remote MR22GA. I bought and received 3 of them, one for each monitor, and upon attempting to pair the monitor displays “Pairing…”, then “This remote is not compatible with this device.” So it attempted, but doesn’t work. I contacted support again, and this time they said this is a known issue. I said, “great, so what is the solution?” They said, “there isn’t one currently” . So now I have to return those as well, fun times and kids are thrilled.If you plan on having only one of these, I imagine you are fine. The monitor functions snappily, supports a wide range of services and looks pretty well for a 1080p 27″ screen with deep blacks. But as soon as you put two of these close enough together for the remote to send input to both, you’re in trouble and LG support will not help you. You have been warned, best of luck!

Not really suitable as a PC monitor, only a smart TV.
The most basic feature or requirement of a monitor for as long as I remember is to turn on when the computer wakes up and then go to sleep or standby when the PC signal goes away.For the first week, that is exactly how it worked, sort off. Once the PC would go to sleep, the monitor would first turn off and then display some bright pretty backgrounds for 1 minute and then go to sleep. Then when I would come back and move the mouse it would turn on just like a normal monitor.Unfortunately, after the week, this stopped working. It would go to sleep the same way, but it would not turn back on after a long sleep, not even that long or only several minutes. There is a power setting to keep the monitor on in sleep for faster startup, but it clearly stopped working after a week. I updated the firmware, reset all settings, but it never worked again after the first week.The only way was to turn it on using the remote or using the button at the bottom center of the monitor. In this case it would take much longer, 8 seconds to turn on the screen, but then 10-20 additional settings were it cannot properly handle inputs which is just far too long for any monitor. The settings for the monitor are similarly very slow to respond or load, at least sometimes.By default the monitor always goes to the home screen when turned on. There is a setting to have it turn on to the last input, which is the way I used it.The smart features and apps do work, but I found it way too slow taking about a minute to start and app and navigating any app was nearly as slow. I greatly preferred just using the PC and a normal monitor.Another great feature, and probably my favorite is that it was very easy to cast or screen-share from my phone (Samsung) to the monitor. The monitor did not need to be on wifi to connect so I could just cast and find the monitor if it was ON. Would have been nice if it stayed on or in standby even when the screen was off so I could cast at any time.The speakers were quite bad. I saw the reviews saying they were bad, I was still surprised. The speakers sound like they are under water. Very distorted and just low quality. When I streamed from the phone or PC I was surprised that both the phone and crappy PC speaker were better. When I upgraded the firmware and reset, It may have improved slightly, but still quite bad. There are different audio settings and an equalizer, but I still could find a good configuration.The remote worked fairly well, but it is very basic. It is the best way to use the monitor or to change settings. It has quick access buttons for apps like Netflix. I often found myself pressing these buttons by accident instead of back. As a result I was greeted with the app loading screen for about a minute before I could exit so it was faster to power if completely off and back on.The monitor itself looks great. It is IPS and the color and brightness looks great. The screen has a mat finish which is fine side-to-side, but I did notice it would appear whiter if looking from the top, more than usual IPS screens.

In this price range, this is a great desk monitor choice.Yes, it’s only FHD and the built-in speaker sounds meh, but it’s very well built, looks clean and minimal, has plenty of options for settings, and has webOs which enables you to watch all streaming services and YouTube etc.P.S. that this is a desk monitor, not a TV; and it’s priced accordingly. So don’t let the reviews complaining about it being a “bad TV” deter you.
