Nuked Hey there, my tech-loving followers! It’s your funny guy Nuked here, ready to bring you the latest scoop on LG’s newest 32-inch 4K monitor. This bad boy is not just your ordinary monitor, oh no, it’s got a smart TV inside! How cool is that?
LG is set to unveil their new series of 32-inch 4K computer monitor/TV hybrids called the’MyView’ at CES this year. And let me tell you, these monitors are not just functional, they’re also stylish. LG will be offering them in a variety of colors, including essence white, mild beige, cotton pink, and cotton green. Talk about adding a pop of color to your desk!
Now, let’s talk about the price. The MyView will come in three variants at two price levels – $599.99 and $499.99. LG hasn’t announced the availability in the US just yet, but hey, good things come to those who wait, right?
When it comes to specs and design, LG’s new smart LED displays give off a similar vibe to the Samsung M8. They both come in multiple colors and have that modern iMac design feel. However, the MyView takes it up a notch with its adjustable stands that allow you to tweak the height, tilt, and rotation to your heart’s content.
But here’s where LG might have the upper hand. The MyView monitors come with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities, 2 built-in speakers, and dual HDMI ports. Plus, they even come with a remote for all your streaming needs. And let’s not forget about the IPS panel that delivers better viewing angles compared to Samsung’s VA tech.
Now, let’s talk about ports. The MyView boasts three USB-C ports with 90-watt USB-C charging, while the M8 only has a single USB-C port with a maximum output of 65W. And guess what? The priciest MyView model is even $100 cheaper than the M8. Score!
But it’s not just about looks and specs. LG’s MyView displays will run on webOS, giving them an advantage over other mundane monitors. These babies can work like a Chromebook, using cloud services like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace without needing another computer. Talk about convenience!
Speaking of price, the $599.99 model, known as the 32SR85U, comes with three USB-C ports with 90 watts of USB-C power output and even ships with a detachable webcam. Oh, and it’s also HomeKit compatible, so you can control it using Siri. Fancy!
Now, let’s move on to the other two variants priced at $499.99. The 32SR83U still has three USB-C ports and a screen brightness of 400 nits, but it only outputs 65 watts over USB-C and doesn’t come with the webcam. The 32SR70U, on the other hand, doesn’t support the detachable webcam at all, has a screen brightness of 350 nits, and only has one 45-watt charging USB-C port.
So, why did LG create the MyView series? Well, it seems like they wanted to fill a void left by Apple’s monitor selection. Let’s face it, most monitors are ugly, and while some people accept that as a fact of life, there are those who crave something stylish for their desk. The MyView might not have the most groundbreaking display specs, but its sleek look and smart TV features might just make it worth the price.
And that’s a wrap, folks! LG’s MyView series is definitely something to keep an eye on if you’re in the market for a new monitor with a little extra pizzazz. Stay tuned for more tech updates from yours truly, Nuked!
