it's that the ethernet connection from the monitor will pass through usb-c to the laptop, so it gives the laptop a hard wired internet connection when plugged into the monitor

Ips, Ethernet, 90w usb c; this hits all points for productivity! Gaming will suffer due to 60Hz (you really want >= 120hz) but otherwise solid monitor for a new price

Is anyone having trouble with the audio over USB C? I've tried two MacBooks and the audio is choppy and seems to be "fast forwarding" videos on YouTube when I switch the output to the monitor.

***** UPDATE

Its a keeper !!! Yup gonna keep this one and see about one more , which will complete my 3 Ultrawide setup with all newer models and sell my older units . ~

Great deal OP , thanks a ton !

* note , and YES I do game with these in EyeInfinity mode and without screen tearing up to about 100/130fps w/ a Sapphire Nitro+ 7900xtx in 7680 x 1080 or1440 .
What game supports that? I couldn't even get Elden ring to do ultra wide

This seems like a productivity winner. The built in usb-c hub with power, networking, display all in one cable is pretty cool.

Quote from dealz4home :
I dont totally understand the hub capabilities yet and havent explored yet. If my laptop can be powered by usb-c, that means that if I plug my laptop into the monitor with a USB cable, it will automatically give my laptop power and video signal to the monitor? NO need for a PD charger at home anymore? Don't understand the audio because I didnt think this monitor had speakers on it. What USB audio signal are you transmitting from the laptop to the monitor? Is it a passthrough to separate/standalone speakers?

edit: I see that there are speakers on this thing....wow
The built-in speakers deliver exceptional sound quality with MaxxAudio technology, ensuring clear communication during meetings.
Quote from jeffkhlam :
So does the single usb-c cable (come with the monitor) work for everything? No need to add power to laptop separately?
Quote from stereo55 :
Yes the C cable comes with it , hdmi cable, power cord and the power supply is internal . ~ Have yet to try the C hookup . .
Quote from tijj :
It transfers everything via USB - Audio for the headphone jack on the monitor, video, anything USB such as an SD card reader plugged into the monitor is passed to your computer via that single USBC connection.
Quote from dealz4home :
power, video, and audio worked like a charm. Very impressed.
Quote from N54FTW :
Was so excited to get this I forgot that it's USB-C and not Thunderbolt. My NAS transfer speeds dropped from about 70MB/s (which is already kind of slow IMO) to 35MB/s through this LG monitor. May be a deal breaker for me. Any experts want to chime in? I would think that USB-C should not be slower for gigabit ethernet. I suspect the USB-C cable included could be USB 2.0.

Final answer on the hub thing. According to user manual
  • In order to use Ethernet in the PC, the USB-C cable must be connected to the PC.
  • When the USB C-C cable is connected between upstream port of monitor and Host PC, the Downstream port of monitor support USB 2.0 device
  • When the USB C-A cable is connected between upstream port of monitor and Host PC, the Downstream port of monitor support USB 3.0 device.
  • Monitor's network show up in Windows as Realtek USB GbE Family Controller, also tried latest Realtek driver
So,
  • If you use HDMI/DP for display and a USB C-A cable, you can get the hub in the back working on 3.0. But that probably defeats half the reasons of having this monitor.
  • If you want a clean setup with single USB-C cable, your network is capped at around 30-40M/s. Whether that's deal breaker, depends on everyone's use case.

Have fun deal hunting

Can it display from two inputs at the same time? Like split screen or PIP?

Mine just arrived. First impression is that it works just fine with MacBook Air M2. I like it, I will be keeping it and use it as my primary work-from-home monitor.
  • is 300 nits enough? Plenty for me. In my office about 80% brightness looks right to me. I was using my previous monitor at 60% so yes this is not as bright. compared to my old 2010 24" 1080p Dell LCD monitors, it's much brighter.
  • is 60hz enough? Plenty for me.
  • Fantastic stand, full adjustment and great range. I always use my monitors at eye level and this is at the right level when pushed to the max height-10inches from desk to bottom of monitor.
  • you can split the monitor in half with two separate inputs.
  • Screen brightness is uniform BUT edges appear slightly dark unless you move your head to be in front of the content. Not enough to bother me on movies or giant spreadsheets, but I would be careful mastering calibrated content on this monitor. I can't actually tell that the brightness is different at the edge unless I'm looking at a white screen.
  • I might have preferred more curve. It is curved but nearly flat. It's nice that I can get close or sit back and it doesn't really distort.
  • Ethernet port is gigabit, 10/100/1000. My home internet tops out at 32Mbps and that's what I get through the monitor.
  • Built in speakers actually good enough for zoom calls, but be aware that speaker volume control is on the back of the monitor.
  • Supports HDR (not all monitors support HDR on MacOS), but in HDR mode some screen customization controls disappear.
  • Monitor is thick, my webcam won't sit on top properly.

I wish I waited to buy!!! Frown I paid over $400 each for these a few month back. They are fantastic for my home office setup and the kids love gaming on the dual monitor setup. Snap one up before they sell out. These are probably going to go fast!
You run dual monitors with these? Stacked or side by side? Seems like you need a big desk area ?

Definitely a no brainer with this. It's the exact same as the Dell P3424WE. Since it's still on sale, I'm considering getting a second one.

It seems this monitor is same as Dell P3424WE, Dell web site says below about two inputs:

"Multitask efficiently: Connect two PC sources to the monitor—our intelligent Auto KVM feature detects the second connected PC and seamlessly switches controls over. KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) allows you to control both PCs with a single keyboard and mouse.

Can you confirm that the LG monitor has the same Auto KVM feature?

Yes, it sure does. Interesting that these are essentially the same monitor. What is odd is that the Dell P3424WE says that the USB-C port is 3.2 Gen 1 (power up to 90W). If that is the case, then why wouldn't the LG version support faster Ethernet/Data transfer speeds? As someone else said earlier, they must have included a USB 2.0 Cable or is the USB-C Interface limited? I need to try a USB-C 3.2 Gen 1/2 cable to see if it makes a difference.

That one has a VA panel. This is an IPS. But I do like the higher refresh.
