Very happy with this monitor

I wasn’t expecting much when I ordered this monitor, but it ended up being a really good purchase. The screen is clear, the colors look natural, and the brightness is easy to adjust depending on the room. I mainly use it for work, browsing, and watching YouTube, and everything looks smooth. I didn’t notice any weird spots or uneven lighting on the panel, and it was easy to get the picture looking the way I wanted after making a few small adjustments. Overall, it’s been a solid monitor and I have no complaints so far.

Hello there, Randy! Thanks for sharing your experience. Great to hear your monitor is giving you clear visuals, smooth performance, and an easy setup for everyday use. If you ever need assistance, @LGUSSupport is always here for you. #LifesGood ❤️ ‑Rich
Display itself looks great. Very good color. Does default to 100% brightness for every new device which it bit annoying. 60-75% seems ideal, especially for PC use. Never could get it to run at 100Hz, and apparently isn't FreeSync compatible. I'm fine with 60Hz so a minor con. And while UHD would be a nice to have FHD resolution is good enough for me.
Only 2 HDMI ports is very limiting for connectivity. Lack of 3.5mm or optical audio out is a gross drawback. Onboard speakers sufficient for news but flat out awful for any media consumption. Sacrificing an HDMI port is essential for ARC audio output. Supports BT audio as well but doesn't auto reconnect which gets annoying real quick. Rear USB ports are also unpowered in standby.
I'm not a fan of the webOS UI, but this is subjective. Objectively it's very laggy on this unit. Even just going through the menu settings is sluggish. LG really cheaped out on CPU power. Most streaming apps perform well enough. The LG Guide and Channels bring this to a crawl.
Thankfully this does use IR for the remote, and was able to program my Harmony and SofaBaton for advanced multi-device control. And LG is one of the few brands left that still have discrete IR input command switching. Though will need a premium universal remote as mentioned to utilize them. For me this is my primary factor is TV purchases.
Screws were not included for the stand. Had to run out and pick up some m4x20 & 25mm to even assemble it.
My previous TV of 15 years finally crapped out. Really didn't even want to upgrade as the older models had far more connectivity options. Unfortunately these hybrid models today are the only alternative for my use case setup - and pickings are slim. Don't care for the current color options either. Everything about this TV is a compromise.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the 27” FHD IPS 100Hz Smart Monitor with webOS for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The image quality is incredibly crisp with vibrant colors and smooth motion, perfect for both work and winding down at the end of the day. The 100Hz refresh rate makes scrolling and light gaming feel fluid, and the IPS panel ensures the screen looks great from any angle.
One of my favorite features is the built-in smart apps, which means I can stream content or browse without even needing to connect a laptop. The webOS interface is intuitive and quick to navigate. I also appreciate how sleek and modern the design is, it looks great on my desk and doesn’t take up too much space!
Setup was simple, and I love that I can switch between productivity and entertainment without juggling cables or devices. Overall, this monitor has become a seamless part of my daily routine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 27" FHD IPS 100Hz Smart Monitor with webOS from LG has been awesome. I got it as a second monitor for my PC, but I keep using it for content creation and video editing because the color accuracy makes color correction easier than ever. YouTube videos look incredible, and it's perfect with my PS5. Gaming is smooth with no screen tearing, and the colors are sharp and vivid. The built-in smart OS is super convenient. I can access all my favorite shows and apps without needing another device. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a monitor that does it all.

Exceeded my expectations, perfect for freelancers!
on June 27, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a self-employed creator working from home, I’ve spent way too long hunched over my laptop at the dining table. Between the neck pain, eye strain, and lack of screen space, I knew it was time to upgrade and I’m so glad I chose this LG Smart Monitor.
First of all, the display quality is beautiful. The colors are vibrant, the screen is crisp, and the design is sleek and modern. It honestly elevates my entire workspace. I didn’t think a monitor could be “aesthetic,” but this one genuinely is.
Setup was quick and painless (no tech frustration), and the smart features have been a huge bonus. I love being able to mirror my laptop with one click, and the built-in apps make it easy to tune into a show when I am done for the day.
If you’re a freelancer or remote worker looking to upgrade your setup, this monitor checks all the boxes: quality, ease, and style. Highly recommend! Review submitted as part of a program that provides a purchase discount.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace my husbands old monitor in his home gym. It's basically a tv! I like the sleek look, and the color. It has it's own stand and assembly was easy. I bought him this for fathers day because it has the remote! Great product! Review submitted as part of a program that provides a purchase discount.
