I bought this after a lot of research to use with a new computer which I bought about a month ago. I could not be happier. I am using the Type C connection but also compared it by connecting to an older computer using an HDMI connection. This monitor came will all the cables a person could need. I did not need to purchase one thing extra.
Pros: ease of use, Features/Settings, Performance, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this monitor recently and la la love it! The size is perfect, the speed is great and the density of the graphics is excellent. Oh and I love the aesthetic look with my gray space MacBook Pro.

Loved it so much I bought another - but bad colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a new MacBook Pro with Touchbar in late 2016 and treated myself to this display to accompany it. I loved everything about it - bright, vivid colors, crisp details, one-cable charging/output, easy menus. I decided to buy a second identical one two years later. I would have given it five stars until the second one arrived.
Unfortunately, the second one immediately had an issue with its coloring, with both displays set to factory default settings. I do not professionally edit photos or videos, but even simple tasks are distracting when the new display has an obvious yellow tint and the old one is a perfect white on web pages or documents.
Making matters worse, my new one is still under warranty, and I have now returned it to LG twice for repair or replacement. Both times, after going through the effort of shipping my monitor, being without it for two weeks each time, and reconnecting it two two different computers (a Dell Latitude from work as well as my MacBook Pro), the same display flaw occurred. I am nearing the point of giving up. So I'd give the original display five stars, and give the newer display one star, averaging out to three stars.
I have read horror stories about LG service, and I am basically living it. The second time I sent it in, the support rep said that they would probably just replace it - but they did not, they just replaced a different part than they replaced the first time. I don't see how such a visually obvious coloration flaw can pass their quality/calibration checks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After looking at many reviews and monitors I bought this one and couldn't be happier with it. It works great with my MacBook Pro and was easy to setup with the USB-C.

Excellent when not paired with a full HD monitor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this monitor last May and really like both the quality and ease of use. The settings panel is easy to go through and has plenty functionality, but the OnScreen Control application is severly lacking (doesn't recognize the monitor sometimes). It has a excellent color coverage, makes it easy to switch inputs and has a USB type C port which helps tremendously with various workflows. However the performance hit the monitor takes when paired with a full HD screen is a little much (according to me).
Pros: Style/Design, ease of use, Performance, Quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good, large screen with sharp text and graphics. My only complaint is that there is apparently a known, persistent difficulty (according to online discussions) with the LG and the new Mac Mini —it can be difficult to impossible to wake the computer from sleep. Sometimes only a restart will do it.
Pros: Performance
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
