Finally, I can watch Justice League Snyder cut in fullscreen
Lmao this is an underrated comment.
Haha good one
Legit would look amazing lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
I'm so excited that a company is finally making monitors which don't just focus on media consumption. I regularly put one of my screens in portrait mode for things like writing and coding, and that 16:9 aspect ratio is always just too awkward. This basically solves the problem and seems really well geared towards professionals who aren't just buying a monitor to watch TH-cam or Netflix.
i'm watching this video in a square monitor.
I agree, I'm going to buy one.
Exactly! This monitor is perfect for writers and content creators. This monitor works really well for word processing.
I want to get one but I'm hoping they make higher quality ones. Smaller bezels would be great.
What is best monitor under 1300-1400 USD around 32 inches screen size?

I am not much into competetivie gaming as I game once a week when time permits so having clear and crips documents and better content creation and consumption is the choice

This is the best thing in the world. As someone who is blind in one eye, modern widescreen monitors are an absolute pain in my rear end to use, since I constantly need to turn my head to see content. I really hope that these sort of monitors come back in fashion.
If this one is hard to get: dell has a series of 30 inch 16:10 2560x1600 that can be had cheap secondhand
man you've might have already tried this, but how about setting up your monitor on arm and make it portrait so it 2k res goes like 1440*2560

I said in Linus' video on this that this monitor is PERFECT for engineering applications - CAD, FEA, dev/ops, and the like - anything that needs a more square form factor. Glad to see I'm not alone :D
@@rubendarioromeroperez9773 I get you, but I feel him. Most CAD Projects won't need all that extra space unless you have all the setting tabs opened.
Very good for Figma also, very easy to prototype if you can see all the screens in one frame.
ok i said this, but i say it again, "this monitor is perfect" 😁😁
Im a dev and I have been wanting this for over a decade ... ever since widescreens took over.
But the 699 price tag is just too damn high.
Seems to be good for video editing animation too(where most controls are on the bottom than on the sides).
I've been wanting to see more square monitors, and LG answered the call! I think that people who work a lot in split screen will enjoy the immersive experience. The stand looks impressive as well :).
$700 though....a bit pricey for me. The market is low on this one.
@@chrish7165 True that. There isn't really anything else like it, which could justify the price for some people. I'm personally satisfied with the more traditional monitor I have, so there is no way I'm getting this one ;).

Traffic control, industrial automation, process monitoring, cad, weatherstations, systems management, security, brokers, project workflow, facility planning, I can see a lot of use cases. The more I look at it the more appealing it becomes.
I've been waiting for a screen like this for ages. I miss the old squarer form factor screens we used to get before everything went 16:9. I'd love to have one of these on either side of my main display.
Day 3 as my daily driver... I love it. I have reclaimed real estate on my desk and don't have to swivel my head between screen. I can have my Mac, work PC laptop or PS5 on the screen at the same time. Hands down a move in the right direction... the future. LG menu is by far the best monitor interface I have used. The experience is similar to my LG CX and C1.
actually that's fantastic for developers. It's niche, but some of us want vertical monitors like this rather than a 16:9 which is a bit narrow. I'd pair this with a 4k 27" and I'd be set. Thanks for the review.
I absolutely love it! Will be purchasing 2 of these as my office monitors.
Best LG DualUp monitor review!! Thank you so much! I like the way you showed us many different programs on the monitor.
wow, just seeing all the options for webflow showing all at once is insane. Also as a developer, 100% I would have this and be able to split my VScode into 4 quarters.
that sounds so powerful already!
had exactly the same thought for phpStorm usage!

Love the ergo stand. I have a 27" QHD LG that came with it. Game changer for my setup!
I absolutely love this form factor. It's sick. Not too wide, nice and tall, fits as a secondary.
I went to the link in the description fully expecting this to be $2000-3000 and I was truly taken aback when I saw it was only $699! In the moniter world, this is basically an impulse buy
$699 is still kind of pricey for a 1440p-ish density, 300 nit, 60Hz screen.
@@Lead_Foot you’re getting two 1440p screens. It was worth it for me
You can’t buy it 1 month later it’s not in stock anywhere. More vapour ware.
@@starcitizen890j5 i bought one a couple weeks ago... it was out of stock but i just waited a couple days and got it during the morning.
@@starcitizen890j5 been trying to get one for a while, they are always out of stock again, though now it's on preorder for 2 weeks and then gets shipped to everyone just a few days later
maybe they just didn't anticipate many people wanting it or just chip shortage still being bad and it's a more niche product
This monitor looks sick! weird but sick!
This is exactly what I've been looking for for coding and having Outlook with my email and calendars. Very cool. At first I thought I would have to get a normal monitor and use it in portrait mode but this is waaay better. thank you for this video my friend! :)
Finally I can see the review of this monitor. I'm curious to try.
this seems perfect for music production. I would love to be able to see more tracks at once!
that is crazy and also never heard oliur be so excited in a video lol
When it comes back in stock, definitely gonna get this one for productivity, large batch photo editing, and design
I find this form factor extremely appealing. 16:9 is common, but I prefer older full-frame 4:3 (maybe just because it's what I grew up with?) and a lot of content now is made on and for vertically oriented smartphones, where ultra wide is very far from ideal.
I suppose the most practical use I see in this for myself is in audio production. A lot of cats go for ultra wide so they can see more of the traditional DAW tracks sprawling horizontally across time. Thing is, it autoscrolls when you want it to. I'd rather be able to see more individual tracks vertically and have room for other windows on top.
4:3 is the dream. - 4k x 3k - at 38" across. - I have tried 4K @ 32" and I need to use scaling - text is too small for me. - I like 1440p @ 27" - and looking at this video, the text looks very small for me. - Apple got it right with 5K at 27" with the Thunderbolt Display ( doubled 1440p ). - I am going to buy 2 of these just to add my 5c contribution so we hopefully see more targeted monitors like this. - doesnt seem to be on sale anywhere though.
4:3 is good for editing or reading A4 sized documents when it's in portrait mode, 16:10 is also solid. 16:9 is kinda the worst. I think this monitor is a bit suboptimal for that but it will have plenty of room for UI elements around the document.

The monitor looks so sick and just feels productive to look at. Great video man!
Silly light is perfect for cheaper stands. Love this stacked setup instead of two monitors.
This is the best review of this monitor I've seen. I feel relaxed and no one is trying to cram specs into my brain. Thanks bruh
This looks brilliant for translators too. As of late I and many colleagues have moved on to using two smaller screens, wherein generally one is for the source file being translated or maybe for documentation ends and the other for having our CAT tool on.
I easily picture myself having it all on one screen, with my documentation, e-mail client, translation live preview and such arranged in tiles and I feel the up-and-down eye movement is more natural, frictionless and forgiving than moving your head left to right non-stop as you would usually do with two smaller screens or one bigger screen while you process text any which way. Setting up a hyper-focus mode would also be a breeze I suspect. Really, really cool.
Side by side is ESSENTIAL for translation, yes!
I’ve been eyeing this for a while. Conceptually I’ve always liked the idea of putting a regular 16:9 monitor in portrait orientation for the sake of having a top and bottom window, but it always seemed like the width would be limiting. While maybe not as sleek looking, the DualUp seems to provide that extra width for windows to be sized properly.
you pretty much need it to be 1440 p to have a good experience with the portrait monitor.
and that is exactly what you get. it is wide enough for most situations. I've done the same with a 27" monitor and is just too awfully tall and two skinny. This LG monitor balances things out, it is not as tall as the 27" turned vertically, but it is significantly wider.
I have dreamed of this form factor and LG made it a reality!
This layout is perfect for various stuff
been around for years Eizo EV2730Q
I feel like I would prefer this over just a large panel, like the LG 42" or 48"...which is what I have been considering for devsecops work. The problem now is deciding what I want for my main monitor. Suppose a 27" or 32" 4k would be just fine.
I think that it might be the monitor I am searching for. On a day to day basis, I use a laptop as a "main" monitor and an old tv on a stand as a vertical monitor for coding, database management, reading docs etc...and it's just a bit narrow for some use cases (that present pretty often) while the laptop is just too crammed for a lot of tasks. This is actually a format that would be perfect for most of what I do. Thanks for the cool review.
I like the idea of really big throwbacks to older 4x3/5x4 displays.
I saw the announcement and I thought it had great promise. Watching your video, you demonstrated so many of the things I would do with it. My existing, old, LG ultrawide has the dual computer hookup, but that kind of defeats the intent, you basically get 2, narrower, screens on a wide screen.
I'm buying one of these for my primary monitor, then turning my ultra wide on it's end to put my email, teams, slack, calendar, etc., on it.
I hope it all works as well as I believe it will!!
Great video, you demonstrated all the right things, at least for me, and did a great job!!
Thanks!!
(Oops, just went to the LG website, and it's out of stock... :( So it is...)
How's your monitor going
LG is the king of display technology. so many new "weird" designs but very practical. they are so versatile that all kinds of companies and consumers look to them for display solution.
i can see this being very useful for engineers, programmers and editors alike, infact there's no single niche market for this honestly. This design is god sent
This monitor looks just absurd, love it
Would be awesome for Photoshop. Lots of room for all the toolbars and layers. I really like this aspect ratio. Even the way the new MacBook Pros are a taller aspect ratio is better for productivity than a wide-screen.
did you ever get it?
@@dontfearthereaper2887 ended up with the Apple Studio Display because i love the integration and built in web cam
I’m thoroughly enjoying your channel, and particularly how relatable you are compared to so many other tech TH-camrs. Have you made a video where you talk through your TH-cam setup anywhere? I ask because lighting brown skin is not straightforward and many people get it wrong, you clearly don’t and your overall presentation and lighting and sound are top notch. I’d like to follow suit!
Thanks for the review!
Did you use it for longer now? Have you encountered any problems?
Everyone has different needs for their workflow so I'm curious to see how others would potentially use this. As a creative, I likely wouldn't use this as my main screen due to the lower PPI but I'm very intrigued at using it as a secondary screen. I could have Behance, Dribble or Pinterest taking up the entire height to see more design inspiration at a time or placing my PhotoShop layers panel on that monitor while I work on the main monitor. Then of-course there's always the general usage for putting notes, spreadsheets, email etc on there as well. Lots of potential here for different use cases!
138 ppi is not something I'd consider low. Yes, it isn't 27" 4k or greater, but still significantly higher ppi than a more common 27" 1440p.
@@ozrenbalic6051 Actually thank you for pointing that out. I was wrong in thinking it was 109 PPI like other 27" 1440p monitors. So at 138 PPI, that puts it around a 32" 4k which actually isn't too bad.
Great vid, cool monitor....but what shoes are you waring in the beginning lol. The mono gray ones? Thanks
Oh my god I love how much screen there is. Would love this for my work PC setup!
To be honest the whole time I am watching this video I was not attentive to look at the monitor. Well, 30% of the time I am watching at that huge LG Monitor but 70% of the time I was listening the way he talks and his voice is very soothing and relaxing.
A quick question. How well does blender work on the M1 ultra. I've been waiting for an answer for this before switching to the Mac Studio. And also how is the performance of the Adobe creative suites?
Wow! A great innovative product from LG. This will be useful for traders, instead of having so many monitors.
4:25 bro the way it turned off as he was passing his hand was so nice I swear
Hey Oliur, great video! After a few months after releasing this review, are you still using this monitor, or have you found something better? I'm just wondering as I'm considering buying this and wanted to know if it still works with your workflow/productivity/gaming/development or if you found any drawbacks?
have the same question
90 watts is actually plenty to charge the M1 Max 16" MacBook Pro, 140 watts is only needed for fast-charging. The M1 Max chip itself never consumes more than 35 watts, but overall system wattage is slightly higher.
considering myself to buy this now haha, thank you for this raw review!
(5:50) I didn't know it was possible to make it work as 2 16:9 displays! This could help me to just keep 2 defined areas of the screen without mucking with third-party tiling assistant apps!
yes but don't think is like two 27" stacked, is more like two 21" stacked.
@@dontfearthereaper2887
Yep! At the time I posted that comment, I hadn't yet seen one in person, but I would later see a retail demo unit and you're right
I actually quite like this. Hate having two screens looking sideways but having it taller would be GREAT.
This might be a stupid question but do monitor arms tend to help with stability of the monitor?
Awesome work monitor!
I really want one really bad now that I’ve seen someone use it. Ultimate setup would be to be able to go between using this or a 34” ultra wide for a single monitor setup.
it looks like something i would use to put my tools, preview website designs etc
Dang, when I am monitor shopping in the future I will have to consider this. Still leaning towards an Ultrawide but this would be great for certain uses.
oliur i love your wallpapers
wow finally back to original sizes of screen!
Nice video! Where did you get the black case for the PS5 ? 👀
ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS. Didn't know until the end of the video you could have 2 sources.. that is simply amazing. I share monitors with my MB and PC and this would just be spot on (plus coding in that vertical square factor is a dream to us devs)
Looks amazing
Thank you for the awesome overview. Where can I download your wallpaper?
Thanks for sharing. Question do you think it would be a good monitor for Video & Photo editing? how are the colors?
Essentially two 1440p 16:9 monitors stacked together. If you already have that setup and you’re tired or staring at the bezel between both monitors that’s directly in your eyeline, this seems perfect.
This would be perfect for my use case.
Or almost a 43" monitor cut in half
I love the resolution 2880x2560, but I wonder if the size 28" is enough (measured diagonally of course).
I think it won't compare to two 28" monitors at 1440x2560 in portrait mode...
Same resolution, yes, but smaller total screen size.
I currently use five 1440p 28" monitors in portrait mode, and I love it, but would love to get rid of some of the bezels for sure.
@@jrr2479 Correct, it comes to essentially two 22 inch monitors stacked without bezels. Probably too small for your use case. Hopefully they’ll release a bigger version
Pretty useful for creative projects that needs room for vertical viewing
Perfect monitor for software engineer, trader and I can see people working in the 3D industry (video game, animation, modeling , etc.) using this kind of monitor. I am eager to get my hand on on of these
For a dual-screens, does 28MQ780-B support multi-stream transport over USB-C or DisplayPort? Many monitors have this feature which allows for a Daisy-chain of two monitors together ( for example, Laptop connected to Monitor 1 then from Mon. 1 to Monitor 2
This monitor is also good for writing large documents or research papers. Combine it with a 27" 4K monitor and you have the best monitor setup so far.
Sir, as you mentioned it’s good for web designing. I would like to know your comments on the actual colour profile, is it accurate enough for UI designers?
I have a side by side Mac/PC set up, and I'm constantly unplugging/replugging in each one based on my work/hobby needs. This would allow me to have both in one screen without touching my plugs. I might need this
After watching your informative video and considering various options, I have made the decision to purchase this device. However, I have a specific question regarding its functionality: Can both a MacBook and an iPad Pro be connected simultaneously?
I actually love it, It looks like a top and bottom monitor set up only with no bezels
This would be an awesome side monitor! Especially for streamers, etc.
I currently use a 27" monitor in portrait position for coding. I could definitely used this for my Coding screen.
This isn't appropriate for my needs but I thoroughly support exploring other aspect ratios. My ideal monitor setup would be a very large ultrawide with a stretched bottom, so basically something like a 40+ inch 21:18. The only reason I haven't gone ultrawide is because I need vertical space, but I hate using multiple monitors out of the need for more horizontal space as well. Hopefully they make this one day, maybe they will if they are experimenting with 16:18.
the 'that's what she said' joke got me to subscribe, im a fan now😂
Ooo, this might make a good IRC monitor. I'm using a 24" 1920x1200 in portrait right now. I think Eizo have a 1920x1920 square one I was pondering before. Hmm
absolutely dream monitor for coding, being able to see such big part of code is priceless
so, could you hook the monitor up to two outputs from the same graphics card or laptop to essentially use it as two separate monitors? Have you tried that since you can't do a dock "up / down" in windows or osX. As if the two separate monitor outputs were stacked so the mouse moves seamlessly between the two "screens" That would be nice with the taskbar docked to the left or right side on both screens
if the video card supports 2 connections at once, then yes, but some video cards get damaged if you try use 2 ports at once
It is weird and cool! It would be interesting to see how could this be integrated in a multi monitor workflow, I don't see people using this as a standalone solution... perhaps in the medical area?
I wish we could have seen two side by side
@@brentgreeff1115 somewhere in youtube there is a video with 2 of them.
This monitor is very intriguing. I do have a few questions: If I am a small office and I perform multiple jobs in the business, from basic MS Office productivity tasks, to occasional HD or 4K video editing, to occasional desktop publishing and photo editing, and putting out flyers, posters and brochures, will this monitor give good color accuracy and image quality? Is this monitor a 4K display? If you can pivot this monitor 90º, what does it look like sideways? Does this monitor have a built-in webcam? How good is the webcam? If not, can an aftermarket webcam be attached and plugged-into the monitor's hub? Why didn't you demonstrate the monitor's usefulness as a KVM switch?
How’s the panel uniformity? I saw another review that suggested it wasn’t great and it’s the only thing stopping me buying one of these right now
Funny - the first video I watched on your channel was the review of the DELL P2415Q - where you gave me the idea to use a monitor in Portrait. Right now - I have a dell in Landscape & another in portrait. - the only thing wrong with this - is that you need 2 of them. - its also a little bit tall. - 2 inches shorter would be better since you want the top of the monitor just above eye level.
cannot wait!
I wish it was a touch screen.
Pen support and 120hz.
Still great and unique.
Bravo lg thinking outside the box like with their dual screen phones.
This is a very unique and functional monitor. I like the width of the ultra wide screens but I hate the extreme loss of height. It’s the reason I haven’t bought one. My perfect screen would have been a 32” 5K screen. Sadly, the 27” 5k is where I’ll have to sit atm.
For Lightroom and Photoshop, this monitor looks amazing!
I'd love to try this out, I can't afford it at the $700 price tag, but it's super super neat
Ooh! Excited to see the Webflow website for Ali!
I'm itching to buy this monitor and use it as a second monitor next to Huawei MateView which is 3:2 aspect ratio. Which then I would use as a preview monitor for compositing, and the LG one for nodes and properties in Nuke. I'm excited for the recent trend of non standard monitors.
Good review but a shame you didn't show what it's like running at retina resolution, or what display settings you were using in the demo.
This would be a SICK monitor for music production
I need two of these STACKED
So it's like someone cut a 5K display in half and is using one of the sides. It actually looks pretty compelling for work on something like layouts and code. I'm not sure I'd be writing that many lines of code in a file, but I'd sure love to have code & tests side by side with a preview of the UI on top, all in one screen
Playing local multiplayer using each half for each player would be insane
I've been planning to add 2 stacked 24" QHD to supplement a 5k2k (off to the side). So, this is that in 1 panel (elegant). However, each would-be QHD screens is only 21.2", so it's likely too small to use without scaling. That, and for $700 I could get instead get 3.5 LG 24QP500-B monitors, currently under $200 (and I've seen them for less), which also run at 75 Hz (this is 60 Hz), have FreeSync (because why not), and are 24" (so are better in every way, except that they are two panels). The arm looks nice, but I was thinking of matching all the arms, so selling the monitor with a nice arm creates another dilemma. I'd love to see this in more like a 32" diagonal, without the arm, and for $400. And for that price I might buy 2.
Yeah, it's almost perfect, it just needs to be a bit bigger.
Seen very useful. I could edit audio and video in that monitor. All the layers in the time lines will be visible.
This monitor + powertoys zoning tool = ultimate productivity! Don't know if there is something like that for macOS but that's neat. Also considering the price, it's basically two very good office grade 1440p monitors with an ergo stand which could run you all together at about 800-1000€/$
PowerToys is a great set of utilities, and FancyZones is one of the best. It's essential for portrait mode, to get stacked window snapping.
I use magnet, is a free mac os app to control window zoning, maybe not as advanced but is more than enough for me
Would be great for the Mac studio no scaling issues.
Logic pro final cut one on top one on bottom. Flip.
Just so cool.
Stupid entertaining video. I have said it before, and I will say it again!!! I will watch any content this man puts out!!! Legend!!!
LG engineer think different with this DualUp Monitor, is perfect monitor companion for specific users.
When many monitor brand release Ultra Wide Monitor, LG make a oposite monitor approach, and i think this DualUp monitor perfect for my second monitor.
This was one of the best purchases ive ever spent
