LG 32UN650-W Monitor 32" UHD (3840 x 2160) IPS Ultrafine Display, HDR10 Compatibility, DCI-P3 95% Color Gamut, AMD FreeSync, 3-Side Virtually Borderless Design, Height Adjustable Stand - Silve/White

I just bought two of these monitors - one for myself and one for my wife. I have been using mine for about a week and she has been using her's for a day. The monitors are connected to Windows 10 computers with display port 1.4 cables. Pros: - Beautiful vibrant picture - Zero dead pixels (originally thought there were a few, see note below) - 4k is much better than 1080p. Even when I am inches from the screen, I have trouble discerning a single distinct pixel. - Minimal backlight bleed - Very bright (I keep mine at around 30% brightness, 50% brightness hurts my eyes) - Built-in 5 watt speakers are decent. The integrated speakers are the primary reason I chose LG over other brands. LG, please keep this up. 7 watt speakers would have been even better. Not needing a soundbar/speakers keeps my setup clean with minimal wires. - So far, on the couple games I have tried, I have been able to game at high settings, 4k, 60Hz with a 1080 Ti. I plan to upgrade to a current generation card soon, though. - All games display correctly on a 16:9 monitor versus an ultrawide. I previously had a 29 inch ultrawide and it was hit-or-miss if a game used the whole screen. Cons: - The stand is mediocre and is my biggest complaint by far. It is mostly plastic with what seems like an aluminum interior on the base. The monitor wobbles slightly when I type. I would easily have paid LG $200 more for a monitor with a rock-solid all-metal stand. I know there is the 32UN880-B with an all-metal stand, but it is a clamp-stand and I can't attach my stand to my desk. I'm probably going to buy an aftermarket replacement. - The power cord is very short (only ~5 ft) and barely reaches my power strip. Other: - Haven't tried HDR yet. I'll update the review if I test it out. - Comes with white HDMI and display port cables. I didn't use the provided display port cable. Instead I bought a well reviewed display port 1.4 cable online. - I actually prefer the white back of the monitor. I originally wanted an all-black monitor, but the white doesn't stand out as much against my lighter colored walls and I find that I prefer it. Note on dead pixels: - I originally thought that my monitor had two dead pixels and that my wife's had one dead pixel. The black spots were pitch-black debris that were statically attached to the screen. Overall, I am extremely happy with these monitors. My complaints about the mediocre stand and short power cable are minor and both can be replaced. The panel is what I bought this monitor for. My wife loves hers and is already talking about buying a second.

Have been very happy with this. Tested HDMI so far, but figure DP will work as well. Initially, Windows set it up as a Generic PnP Monitor or some such. You have to download the driver from LG's website and then update the monitor in device manager to use it (use Have Disk). Why it won't do this automatically on Windows 10 is beyond me. Anyway, contrary to some reviews here, FreeSync does indeed work, and on HDMI. Certainly it will work on DP too, but I have seen specific claims about FreeSync not being "available" on HDMI. It is. You have to turn it on in various places (e.g. graphics card settings, monitor settings, etc.), but it definitely works, as does HDR on HDMI. Again, that will almost certainly work on DP as well. It occasionally displays the HDR logo at top right for some reason, possibly when switching resolutions. The nag to switch to the "recommended" resolution was annoying, but it can be turned off with the little (oddly lighted) joystick at front center underneath, which also handles menu navigation and volume. Haven't tried the sound. Picture looks great! Bezel is minimal. Price seems reasonable, but I really have no idea on that. They got here on time and in the original boxes. All pristine. It's certainly not cutting edge and LG likely has better ones now for just a little more, but these worked well for my application (got 2 of them).

Overview: To me, a retired professional as in I am a professional at being retired, it is a 'reasonably priced' general purpose 4k monitor that matches my emphasis on color accuracy for family photos (Photoshop elements and Premier), with a little gaming (MSFS2020, Mechwarrior On Line and YouTube). The 32" size seems to be my upper limit as I have to have it closer (<20") from eyes and any bigger would require head pivot to see the sides. Pros: Great color after Calibration I (SpyderXPro). Stand is Solid Metal and stable for me, Comes with HDMI cable (I use the Data Port though). Cons: No USB ports. Speakers are minimal (a tradition with monitors). One button joystick menu button (some would call that a pro). Conclusion: Nice monitor.

I've been looking for a monitor like this and it's finally here! 4k at 32 inches provides ample screen real estate for productivity purposes. Add adaptive sync and great picture quality and you get immersive, tear free gaming especially suitable for single player games. Colors and blacks are great, and provide good content consumption experience. Works great with my MacBook as well as my desktop. Design is minimal and should blend in with any decor. I like the included stand too. In short this is a very versatile monitor which can work in almost any situation. There are a few downsides to keep in mind. First, 60Hz can be limiting for competitive gamers, although high refresh 4k monitors at this size aren't common and are extremely expensive. Second, there's no usb hub. Not a big deal especially given the price, but something to keep in mind. Overall very happy with the monitor!

I love LG MONITOR! Never disappointed at all!

Great 32" 4k monitor. Beautiful colors with IPS, good off angle viewing and I like the single stick control. Cord isn't standard pluggable power and is short but makes it to my power conditioner. Had it for two days, setup in minutes, this is a keeper. I run the LG UN650 IPS side by side with my relatively new Philips 328E 32" 4k VA, the biggest difference by far is the color on the UN650's IPS is so much better, deeper and pops, making the the 328E's VA screen look washed. The UN650 IPS flat screen has good off angle and the 328E is curved so I don't lose screen real estate. The price is a two sided coin -- the first 32" 4k IPS display at $450 new is unbelievable and worth the extra $100 over a VA display whether 1 step down or from another brand. I remember buying several HP 30" 2k IPS displays used on eBay for $600 years ago which was a steal for the $2,000 monitor when new, those HP's don't run on Windows 10 anymore being so old. Next came cheap 28" 4k TA monitors which required reading glasses but reasonable for programming. Now for about the same price as the 28" TA and $150 less than used 2k IPS's I get a brand new 4k IPS monitor at double the resolution on a bigger screen. The other side of the coin is I just spent $450 on a monitor, although for one I really needed and worth it. 4k movies over a firestick look good but are a little dark after getting used to my now older 4k LED TV, just testing with Avengers: Infinity War. Sound is good from the standard jack when amplified thru my Fiio and Sennheiser headphones. I haven't played games in years so I'm not interested in 120 or 144Hz which may not exist yet for IPS and would cost twice as much or more. I primarily have this monitor for programming and office applications and it suits me very well, great purchase. Thank you LG.

Fantastic, ginormous monitor. Can fit like 4 regular screens in this puppy. Great for singular work spaces where you don't want to finangle with multiple monitors but you want to have several split screen views, etc. Display is crisp and adjustable in a myriad of ways. Good audio as well. Connects easily, height adjusts well, works great all around!

I'm a typical intellectual type of consumer. I read the NY Times, pdf books and emails, watch YouTube podcasts and movies, and use Word and Excel, and so on. This monitor has a big screen and provides topnotch resolution (3840 x 2160) at a reasonable price (I paid $350). That's my highest priority--easy on the eyes. I don't know all the technical stuff about monitors, and I don't use it for gaming. I have other cheaper LG monitors that perform well and have lower resolution (1920 x 1080)--used with older computers. They are in good shape after years of use, so I think LG offers good quality for the price. To get the highest resolution from this monitor, you need to determine that your computer has Display Port or HDMI. I use it with an HP Z1 G5 desktop having i7-9700 CPU.

I've been looking around for a large monitor for my home office... finally my Samsung 24" monitor gave up on me. Was considering a 34" ultrawide monitor, but curved... not quite for me. This LG 32UN650 ticked most of the boxes for me - 3840x2160 resolution to fit 2 Word docs side-by-side, HDMI, built-in speakers... EXCEPT no USB-C connectivity. The alternative with my ideal specs would have costed another $350 to $400. And if I wanted the full works with built-in web-cam, then it would have been another $1,500+. The low-down is: great screen, albeit no USB-C and the built-in speakers are ok for the usual YouTube playback but not for web conferencing. Good colours, resolution is good too. Connectivity with my MacBook Pro via HDMI is good - no need for adapter. The best part about this purchase is: delivery was made within 2 days, BUT Amazon.SG's tracking showed it was yet to be delivered. So Kudos to the seller, BizgramAsia. Overall great purchase and yes, exactly what I needed!

I upgraded my home office setup with this LG monitor, and the 4K resolution is an absolute game-changer for writing code and editing photos. The colors are incredibly crisp, and the 31.5-inch screen gives me plenty of real estate to have multiple windows open side-by-side without feeling cramped. The stand is pretty solid and easily adjustable, though I might eventually mount it on a monitor arm to save some desk space. Highly recommend it if you stare at screens all day!

Worked well right out of the box. Loved the build and resolution and colors. LG fan all the way.

Monitor received on 14 October 2024 and it has a dead pixel.

I am a UX designer and I use this as my main workstation monitor. It's an awesome size and resolution. 4k means everything is crisp, and you get lots of real estate. Love how much space there is, the color accuracy, and brightness. There is a bit of IPS glow when looking at dark content in a dark room - but I always have a light on when I'm working - and I'm not watching movies on this thing. Great monitor for media / design professionals.
