I have been really interested in this monitor and this was the best unboxing I've seen. Sorry for the mishap at the end - but your honesty will prevent this from happening for so many (myself included). Thank you. I just subscribed and wish you luck with your channel. Cheers.
Great video. To get a list of screen resolution sizes when selecting the "Scaled" radio button hold down the "alt/option" key and that will give you the resolution sizes list. Lucky you got it replaced...as most of the Tech shops don't give us that option. Thanks for sharing. 👍
One of the best unboxing I've seen and really enjoyed the explanation of what it could do. I've been working off a late 2015 iMac with Retina and it's been a great friend. But time catches up to all of us, I'm upgrading to the M2 Mac mini and therefore need a new monitor. I've been looking at this one but wanted to better understand it's all round capabilities.
Did you get the Monitor for your Mini M2 ? or a other model and if yes how does it perform? im searching for one with USB C via HDMI i have a lot of problems.
I've had this monitor for a year. it's excellent. bright, colorful, accurate picture. worth every penny. The only way it could be better is having a Glossy screen.
Hey Doc, I'm looking forwad to get it but I have a Quick question and don't know if you could help The HDMI ports... are 1.4 or 2.0? Is just because 1.4 won't allow 4k 60hz... Thanks!
I had issues with the USB-C port too. In my case, the entire port came right off the board stuck to the cable. LG replaced it and funny enough, the USB-C cable on my replacement came with a detached USB-C port pre-attached to the cable. So it seems like they have lots of problems with the fragility of this port, even at the factory.
It's the frailty of this port that's keeping me from ordering one. Multiple reports of USB-C ports falling apart on a $1600 monitor does not inspire confidence.
Love that you mentioned the scaling you are using. I think I would also lean to this setting (the 3360 or so). Did you end up having any issues with it down the road?
@@yootoobdood18 hello! I now use a MBP M1 14” and it works perfectly as did the MBA. As soon as I plug in the USB-C, it powers my laptop and monitor displays works. So far no issues. 32” is pretty big. I kinda wish I would’ve gotten the 27”. (Turn off Auto HDR. That ruins the color from Macs for some reason. With it turned off, it looks perfect)
Same thing happened to me. My usb c port on the monitor side was bent! Thank God i managed to bend it back to its normal way. Am using it with the m1 macbook air. Plugging the display into the laptop will sometimes fail to wake up the laptop which i put in clamshell mode.
Great review mate, thank you! I am using this one now and I like it. The only issue is that I wish it could be brought a bit lower, as the monitor arm limits that. Do you have any issues with the monitor height? With good posture I think I'll be alright. It does heighten the angle of my camera behind the monitor for streaming/video purposes though. Cheers!
Thanks! Agree the height can be an issue as I’m finding myself looking up, but I’ve got a standing desk which allows me to adjust the desk so that is how I balance it.
@@tasokatsionis Great stuff, thanks for the reply! A standing desk definitely solves this problem (or a good chair). I like how I can have 3 windows side by side vs 2 with a 27 inch HD one. Subbed, cheers :)
I am curious, when it's on max height, how far from the table is it actually, could any of you measure it, would really appreciate it as I'm planning to get it but I actually need a lot of height. Thx
Thank you for the review, this monitor suffer from Hidpi problems when you scale the size? I means getting blurry text as on every 2k monitors with MacOs
Hey Taso! Good review and thank you so much! I have a MBP 14" and the same monitor connected via the provided USB-C cable. Unfortunately when I turn on the HDR setting on the MBP, the screen on the LG monitor gets a disgusting yellow tint. Do you have the same issue? And I do have the night shift off on both the monitor and MBP.
I believe I’ve taken night shift and true Tone off, and used an old calibration device for print work. Depends on what you use it for but I’ll confirm when I get back to work 🙂
Confirming that I have kept True Tone, but I often take it off to check colours to give me a better representation of what a design may look like on other displays.
Have you been able to watch Netflix or other streaming services in 4K with this monitor? I only ask because of all the hdcp 2.2 compatibility requirements, thank you!
I use this monitor with my M1 Pro 16" MacBook Pro. The biggest downside is that HDR doesn't seem to work properly. Whenever I activate it, the blacks don't go all the way down, it has washed up colours and still doesn't display HDR content properly. If anyone has a solution, it would be greatly appreciated! Other than that, in SDR, beautiful screen with pretty accurate colours and a good viewing angle. Plus the arm it comes with it awesome. The whole thing really is designed for professionals.
350 nits only. You never will see HDR content properly. And black never will go down , you’re on IPS ips screen, if you want black buy an oled screen or mini led display ( new line from DELL seems to be amazing)
Does anyone know if I can connect Logitech keyboard over usb to this monitor? I am using macbook pro m2 and there are some comments on the internet that it will work but some says it wouldn't.
Hi. Great video. I also purchased this monitor. I have an issue though. I have the feeling that the screen / display is bending. Not sure how to explain this but its like the middle of the screen is jumping at you where the ends on left and right are more in the background. Its sort of have a curve but the opposite direction as the curved monitors :). To be clear the monitor itself is perfectly fine but the picture when i have it running is bend. Any idea what might cause this issue?
Hi Eduard. I know exactly what you are talking about. I purchased a BenQ PD3230 a few days before Christmas (32" 4k) where I had the exact same issue (actually I was not really sure if it was an issue or if it was just me). I sent the monitor back and got a new one with the same result. I know ordered this LG32UN880 and after reading your comment I am a bit scarred that this will happen again now. I was using a 38" LG Ultra Wide Screen (curved) before and was thinking that I am might not be used to the non-curved display which is then causing this weird feeling. I could not find anyone with the same issues online and even had a phone call with BenQ support. No one knew what I was talking about :D Will get it on Tuesday most likely and can only hope for the best now. Still good to read that I am not crazy any someone else is experience the same problem.
@@Chris-wu6bx Hey Chris, thanks for reply. I found some Reddit threads about this issue. It’s a eye brain type of issue thing. It takes like 3 weeks for your brain to get used to it.
@@eduardschor3077 wow really? That is some really good news though! Would you mind sharing the Reddit link? Really interested to read some more details about this stuff. Thanks a log in advance!
@@Chris-wu6bx Hi I have an ultra wide curved 38UC99-w but am bored of having it for 5 years. It still works perfectly like day one, but I don't use it for gaming or video editing, which is what ultra-wide seems to be very good at. I want to buy the 32UN880 and I would like to know if the change you made was right for you or not. Thanks
Many thanks for this informative video. I'm up to the point of clipping the monitor into the ergo stand but thinking ahead I would like to know how to dismount the screen incase I need to remove it for any reason before I actually clip it in. I've been on the chat line with LG in the UK and they seem to answer every question bar the one I am asking - can you help? Interesting seeing the usbc mounting proble that you had as I've heard about this but not actually seen why people have had the problem - I'll try to avoid this.
By the way, impatience got the better of me and looking at the back of the monitor I saw that at the bottom of the mounting aperature there is a release button that when slid down pivots the locking catches on the monitor out of the way to enable the monitor to be lifted out of the ergo stand. Simple when you know how but it seems beyond belief that the LG help line could not come up with this answer in a few minutes. The big gripe that I have is that everything is on line, only the briefest of installation instructions are printed and included in the box - not so good if you don't have internet access whilst you are trying to assemble something!

Would you interested to take this as an freelance job for me to help you create a logo for your channel? Let me know if you need it!
finally an untainted video. Never trust anyone with links in the description. Surprised the USB C port bent. I've heard a lot of bad things about the build quality and quality control of this monitor. It's the right spec for what I want but I can't help think it's over priced. It's currently £550 on sale here in the UK. £499 would push me over the edge but it looks more like a £399-£475 monitor. Any issues using it with the MacBook? I just got an M1pro
Hi, the usb-c port feels delicate and fixed securely which would allow for some movement when positioning the display. I did get this on Black Friday deal, so saved about $350AUD and was really unsure about getting it at full price. After 2 weeks the display is crips and everything I need to do my work. I am yet to colour calibrate it as my device is not supported by X-Rite anymore. My MBP works well with it, it gets powered by the usb-c cable but only when the display is on. It took me a while to work out to use the one-button toggle control on the display but will get to check it out more when I have time. Thanks for getting in touch.
Lots of protective material came with the package, but you adjusted the support on your table without any protection for your table surface. Anxiety moment here :)
I bought this particular model to use it with my MacBook m1 PRO. It was working fine and it started disconnecting randomly. Now, one of my USB-C ports is not working at all! My Mac is not even detecting external keyboards with that USB-C port, only charging works.Sad.
Two weeks ago the usb-c connection failed to connect to my MBP, now on the HDMI cable - I will try again when I am less busy... maybe some MacOS update did something.
I am not having the 60-hertz option in my same LG monitor. Initially, it was working really well with 60-hertz but after a few months, the refresh rate option in the display setting went away. I did not change anything same UCB C I am using came with the monitor. Can someone please help?? Thanks.
Does anyone have a trouble with charging the macbook with the one cable setup? Mine goes on and off everytime, I need to connect the macbook to the power supply so this doesn't happen. Anyone?
@@tasokatsionis great, mine goes off when I unplugged the power cord, I don’t know maybe it’s a Software issue? I’m running on Monterey the latest update. 😪 what OS do you have?
I have been using it since June 2022. I haven't figured out a way to use it in 75Hz which is advertised. Moreover It has to be the most non-gaming monitor I have ever seen in my life. 3/5 starts from me, not worth the money especially if you are thinking about gaming.
My old cinema display died many years ago, it was great, pity they discontinued it. This new one is better than my Dell and recent trip to the Apple store the new display just announced looks great and will be better in colour and all other add-ons (speakers & A13 chip and webcam) but it is smaller at 27" and 3x the cost.
I just bought it today but somehow my MacBook air M1 chip won't be able to output 4k60hz only 4k30hz Is there any setting I need to do or if anyone face the same problem, please help me
Maybe one day LG will give the option of choosing between a glossy and matt screen when buying a monitor. Since you already paying so much why not have options then
I’m sure there are other displays that offer gloss - I was not a big fan of them when apple decide all iMacs to be gloss but you soon forget it is either Matt or gloss.
i have this monitor and stand...for those wanting the monitor to sit far back (furthest from the seating position), this is not the stand for you. this stand is annoying since it doesn't let you angle it enough. big miss on LG's part.
I mean, can it work on its own like a regular desktop computer or would I have to attach my Mac or another laptop to it for it to work? Is it purely just a monitor?
I will be getting this monitor along with the MBP 14” M1 pro next month, can you or anyone let me know if there has been any issues with the display or connectivity with this model please 😊 Getting a little concerned as when you google best monitors for MacBook Pro M1 pro this doesn’t even make the top 10 so just wondering if there is something I’m missing?
I have a 16” MBP, no issue other than occasionally I need to disconnect the usb-c cable for my Mac to recognise the display. Most Google results I found were based on articles that was someone’s option, maybe paid or not paid and very unclear. I was sceptical with this panel, but I’m glad I got this at a discounted price, I was saving up for the Apple listed LG 5K.
Still only 4K, very strange... After the success of the 5K LG many years ago, I don't get the fact that almost ALL monitors have been still 4K only :-/
We need manufacturers to start covering the mid-level pro market. There's a lot of us that can't get by with these low PPI 4K monitors, but can't afford Apple's pro display. We need a 5K3K in a price range in between these.
Manlike Karoly is making a valid point. At 32 inch 5k should be the default option. Even 27inch at 4k is a bit too low from experience (27inch iMac's are 5k).
LG could learn a thing or two with Apple in terms of sustainable packaging. Still too many plastic materials and a potential hazard to the environment. Hope they’ll improve soon… Nice unboxing, though…
@@tasokatsionis he's trying and failing..... Just curious are you still using this monitor or moved on? Thinking of getting one, there's a couple around on sale atm. Great to see a Aussie review 🤙

@@tasokatsionis great, mine goes off when I unplugged the power cord, I don’t know maybe it’s a Software issue? I’m running on Monterey the latest update. 😪 what OS do you have?
Can i play racing games on this /xbox series x ?
I’ve hooked up my PS5 but not really made for gaming I believe.
I have been using it since June 2022. I haven't figured out a way to use it in 75Hz which is advertised. Moreover It has to be the most non-gaming monitor I have ever seen in my life. 3/5 starts from me, not worth the money especially if you are thinking about gaming.
There are better gaming displays... this is fine for work.
these screens are good but could not be as good as the Mac displays even the old cinema displays the color just pops!
My old cinema display died many years ago, it was great, pity they discontinued it. This new one is better than my Dell and recent trip to the Apple store the new display just announced looks great and will be better in colour and all other add-ons (speakers & A13 chip and webcam) but it is smaller at 27" and 3x the cost.
Does it not include a remote?
I don't believe it does have a remote, well at least in my box.
I just bought it today but somehow my MacBook air M1 chip won't be able to output 4k60hz only 4k30hz
Is there any setting I need to do or if anyone face the same problem, please help me
The output seems very low... I am away from my display at the moment to check. If it's new get in touch with where you got it from?
what settings do you use? standard? user?
I calibrated the display with an old Colour Munki device, prior to doing this it was at standard settings.
Maybe one day LG will give the option of choosing between a glossy and matt screen when buying a monitor. Since you already paying so much why not have options then
I’m sure there are other displays that offer gloss - I was not a big fan of them when apple decide all iMacs to be gloss but you soon forget it is either Matt or gloss.
@@tasokatsionis Currently only LG offers a monitor arm like that though. So yeah options from them would be nice
i have this monitor and stand...for those wanting the monitor to sit far back (furthest from the seating position), this is not the stand for you. this stand is annoying since it doesn't let you angle it enough. big miss on LG's part.
Is it a stand alone monitor
Not sure what you mean. There is a stand that is fixed to your table, you would need to get another stand to be able to move it around.
I mean, can it work on its own like a regular desktop computer or would I have to attach my Mac or another laptop to it for it to work? Is it purely just a monitor?
I will be getting this monitor along with the MBP 14” M1 pro next month, can you or anyone let me know if there has been any issues with the display or connectivity with this model please 😊
Getting a little concerned as when you google best monitors for MacBook Pro M1 pro this doesn’t even make the top 10 so just wondering if there is something I’m missing?
I have a 16” MBP, no issue other than occasionally I need to disconnect the usb-c cable for my Mac to recognise the display. Most Google results I found were based on articles that was someone’s option, maybe paid or not paid and very unclear. I was sceptical with this panel, but I’m glad I got this at a discounted price, I was saving up for the Apple listed LG 5K.
Can I play games this monitor please reply
The display is up to 60hz. I’ve played on it using my PS4. It’s ok but there are better gaming display I believe.
17:15 RIP USB-C
🥲
I just got rid of two of these for an LG C2 42 “
Nice!
Still only 4K, very strange... After the success of the 5K LG many years ago, I don't get the fact that almost ALL monitors have been still 4K only :-/
It’s also a price point that I’m happy to pay… Apple sells a 5K for $1800AUD, got this for $700 on a sale (Apple doesn’t discount).
We need manufacturers to start covering the mid-level pro market. There's a lot of us that can't get by with these low PPI 4K monitors, but can't afford Apple's pro display. We need a 5K3K in a price range in between these.
Half the price of the 5k?
Manlike Karoly is making a valid point. At 32 inch 5k should be the default option. Even 27inch at 4k is a bit too low from experience (27inch iMac's are 5k).
LG could learn a thing or two with Apple in terms of sustainable packaging. Still too many plastic materials and a potential hazard to the environment. Hope they’ll improve soon… Nice unboxing, though…
Thanks. I agree too much packaging.

Did I hear it right, your name is Tosser?
You trying to be funny?
@@tasokatsionis "You trying to be funny?" What language is that, Tosser?
@@tasokatsionis he's trying and failing..... Just curious are you still using this monitor or moved on? Thinking of getting one, there's a couple around on sale atm. Great to see a Aussie review 🤙
