LG 32UP550N-W 32" 4K UHD Business Monitor

A great monitor for either home office or gaming use, crystal clear and very easy to setup and start using.

Having the HDMI, Display Port and USB-C cables provided with the screen is a very welcome extra, which so many manufacturers neglect.

The sound from the speakers is clear and crisp, whilst certainly not an "immersive gaming experience" they certainly do the job for casual gaming and other activities. A great monitor for either home office or gaming use, crystal clear and very easy to setup and start using.

Great service, very helpful staff.
This monitor is a decent choice for its price range. The UHD resolution provides clear and crisp visuals that are superior to regular HD or 4k displays. However, the colour accuracy could be improved, as it seems to be off by around 15%. Additionally, there is a noticeable amount of glare when viewing from different angles. That being said, if you're looking for a budget-friendly monitor for work or casual use, this one is definitely worth considering. It offers great value for its cost and performs well for daily use.

A bit of a story. Initially, I was looking for 27' monitor due to the limited budget, so I created a spreadsheet with a list of potential ones. Then decided to expand the budget for another 100$ to see what else I could get and this monitor managed to get on my list.
On one of the sales recently noticed that this monitor price dropped to exactly my budget - it's a sign.
Was thinking - wouldn't 32 inches be too big for my needs? Answering now - No. You can always resize the windows inside the monitor, but when you need you can't increase the monitor size itself. So it seats nice in my 60cm width table.

Had an issue with some strange grey lines in the monitor, but after the conversation with PB Service they agreed to replace it and the new unit was perfect.

Another note. The reason for buying this monitor is to replace the dual monitor setup that I have for WFH. After a few weeks of testing, I can say that a laptop screen and 32' is more than another to replace 2 monitors (24 and 22 inches)

A few downsides:
- Thick monitor. But it kinda expected due to the price
- The stand doesn't turn left/right + it's a bit big and takes width space on the table. Might consider a monitor arm at some point in time.

Everything about these monitors is good. Image quality, build quality, the adjustable stand. The UI on the menu is easy to use. It's a very versatile solution that will suit most people, other than maybe high-end gamers or design professionals. Everything about these monitors is good.

Very sharp image and built in docking station capability is great Very sharp image and built in docking station capability is great

I love my new monitor - great screen size, responsive and works well. One small issue is when it wakes up from sleep (when my laptop has gone to sleep) the screen is greyed out - I have to change the mode / turn it off and on again for it to resolve.

This monitor claims 3000:1 contrast ratio and that is a lie
as soon as you turn it on you can see that the monitor has very limited contrast range and it is impossible to find any settings that provide good image, it is just washed out with no decent black level available and limited brightness
I tried for a week to change every possible setting and they are all rubbish so its going in the bin This monitor claims 3000:1 contrast ratio and that is a lie

One of my two 24 inch monitors developed a fault which I was unable to repair.
I had been considering a 32 inch 4K replacement for some time, After searching various reviews this LG unit became my choice and proved excellent for my purposes.
Cables can be expensive but all you are ever likely to need are included.
In my old age my eyesight has deteriorated considerably. This screen allows me to have slightly larger image than before and the brightness is stunningly clear.

Very stosfied with puchase.

After having replaced one of my two screens with this model, I just could not get the "old" screen to have same color and brightness matching the new screen. Measurements with a photo spectrometer indicated that the very different backlighting characteristics of the screens would virtually make it impossible to get them to look the same. Absolutely loving the new screen's vivid and true colors I decided to get (while still available) an identical one to ensure same characteristics. I expected to just set the default values of the new ("identical") screen to get the desired result, but here I was surprised to discover that white pages in word...view more After having replaced one of my two screens with this model, I just could not get the "old" screen to have same color and brightness matching the new screen. Measurements with a photo spectrometer indicated that the very different backlighting characteristics of the screens would virtually make it impossible to get them to look the same. Absolutely loving the new screen's vivid and true colors I decided to get (while still available) an identical one to ensure same characteristics. I expected to just set the default values of the new ("identical") screen to get the desired result, but here I was surprised to discover that white pages in word and other whites were distinctly warmer in the new screen. Fortunately the screens have color temperature settings and after setting the new screen to "cool" it matched the"old" screen's "normal" exactly for the eye anyway. Checking this with my photo spectrometer, I could verify that indeed the color temperatures matched now and other colors as well. So I was slightly puzzled by this, but that's all. The screens are very pleasant to the eye and can be adjusted over a wide range. Viewing angle is great too, so that two of these next to each other is not a problem. Very happy with my purpose and forgive them for not using the exact same calibration in the factory. They are absolutely identical now according to my measurements, which are way more unforgiving (accurate) than the eye.

I’m using this screen to run my MacBook Pro as an external display. I choose this because it’s has a 96 watt usb c display port and it charges my MacBook Pro while connected, making my home studio very streamlined and tidy. Delivery was fast and secure. I like pb tech and have shopped here often for all the tech peripheries such as ssd’s and cables etc. I’m using this screen to run my MacBook Pro as an external display.
