LG 32U990A Reviews

Had potential but ultimately fell very, very short

By User7

I really wanted to like this product. I had my previous LG 32BL95U for 6 years and wanted an upgrade. I came back to LG after my good experience with the previous monitor. The 32U99A-S boats good connectivity options, has a good menu system with lots of options, and an exceptional 6k resolution. It has great color accuracy. BUT, the resolution, the color accuracy, etc., are all completely negated by the horrendous coating LG chose to use on this display. The display looked grainy and things never seemed to look good no matter the lighting or adjustments I made with both the monitor's settings and the settings with both my Macbook Pro and my PC. After doing some research, this has been the case for many people.For me, the choice of coating turned this monitor into a complete dud. The brightness level is also unacceptable for a monitor like this, it is nowhere near bright enough. What is the point of having good color accuracy and clear text if you can't see anything because of how dark this monitor is? There also needs to be a glossy option if you want this monitor to really mesh well with Mac users and the whole experience. I really just feel like LG completely missed the market here for this display. This would have been a huge success had they executed better. Some additional notes: The power brick is massive but the larger problem is the cord that goes from the power brick and plugs into the back of the monitor. The cord is too short. This is the only monitor I've ever used where I had to lay the power brick on my desk behind the monitor because the power cord wasn't long enough to reach the outlet on the floor from my desk. People who look for premium products pay attention to the details; they don't want massive power bricks that can't be hidden, dull display coatings, low-brightness, bad speakers, etc. If you're going to charge a premium price you better make sure you have a premium product that aligns and people will consider to be worth it. That just wasn't the case here.

Great price and quality

Recently purchased this display. It was $1,299.99 (so the price was right). No dead or hot pixels. Sharp texts. Great image quality. Mostly, I use it for evaluating medical images (work) and Adobe Photoshop/Lightroom/Nik (hobby) photo editing. Wanted something that has great color gamut (Adobe RGB). I don't have an issue with the matte finish and splotchy background. It comes with all the cables you need. The power supply was a bit overwhelming though. Overall, for $1299.99 + CA $5 electronic waste disposal fee, it was worth it! At full price, I'm not sure!

Can you connect 4 of these monitors to a Macbook M4 Max Pro or a M4 Studio?
Asked by: Luke
Apple rates their M4 Max chip as capable of supporting four displays up to a native resolution of 6K (6144 x 3456) at 60 Hz or 4K (3840 x 2160) at 144 Hz over Thunderbolt or HDMI. It should be able to drive four LG UltraFine evo 32U990A-S monitors; however, since we do not do hardware testing, we are not able to guarantee it.
