In my opinion 27 or 32. Go to a a physical store and see yourself also experience it for minimum 10 to 15 minutes. If you feel comfortable buy it online 😜.
You can really use any size you like because even with a really big monitor, you can just use part of the screen for your work and ignore the rest. It really just depends on if you also want to use your monitor for watching video and playing games when you are done working. If you do, then I think the 43" is the best option.
While Windows 11 scales well at 150% on this 43-inch 4K monitor, pixel peeping still reveals individual pixels. This highlights the PPI limitations: 4K resolution isn't dense enough for pixel-perfect video editing, photo editing, or coding. However, the large size shines for movies, dashboards, and Zoom meetings.
How do you download onscreen control to create split screens for this monitor? I've been through the recommended steps on the LG website and can't find anything. Thanks
Question, why do you keep mentioning that it’s not good for editing? Hope to hear your feedback. I’ve been editing on a Sony 42” 1080p tv for years and the colors are very accurate to my iPhone colors. Ive been wanting to get this for photo editing. If I’m used to a monitor this big already would you say I should get it, or is there other reasons you don’t recommend it for editing? Thank you!
Not sure how you got a 3 year warranty? It is only a 1 year warranty now, did they change it? I've seen many people complain the monitor won't come back on after computer wakes from sleep, and they need to reconnect the power supply to get it going again. Also saw a complaint that you can't adjust brightness and contrast on this monitor. Can you comment on these issues? Thanks.
It depends on what you do. If you play games or watch TH-cam no problems.. if you edit text you will see pixels .. if you sit close you will see pixel.. but only if you look for pixels.. I highly recommend it as a secondary monitor
@@sriram5045 It depends on who you are. If you're a console gamer or someone who primarily consumes content, this monitor is okay. However, it is not suitable for other professional work that requires 8 to 12 hours of daily use.
Thanks for your reply Sir. I’m planning on buying this lg monitor for my mac mini. I dont have any problem with the screen size but are there any problems/downsides that you may have faced recently ?
@@returnal696 This is a low budget option. I think we will get what we paid for. this is better than tv's from samsung and lg at similar price. But Lg C2/3 OLED is far better option if you can spend that much.
This is less expensive and glossy display. Not bad for TV first use case.. also good for gaming. For coding , video editor choose a display with more PPI
For office work, what about something like the LG 43UN700? It's a few years old but allows 4 different input sources to be displayed simultaneously and has usb-c. Or is the issue really just that the screwn is too big for the intended application? Thanks.
@@TechKerala yeah man, thanks. I played with a 43" and found myself sometimes losing the cursor and even moving my head around just to see what I was doing. I ended up getting a 32" (4k IPS) - two of them, in fact, mounted side by side. The picture is so good it's almost "too clear", lol - text is crisp and sharp, and the 32" size is perfect for working close-up with multiple documents (and/or watching a movie from a few feet back).
No, for coding or other professional work, get a Dell UltraSharp or a similar monitor. This monitor is suitable for casual gaming, movie watching, and productivity tasks like coding at 1080p. However, display objects appear larger than usual, so sitting too close may feel uncomfortable.
@@TechKerala this monitor is cheap almost close to 32inch 4k monitor. So couldn't decide to go.. but being big monitor it may not be comfortable to use at closer distance as u said ! I prefer more gaming and movies and occasional work. Is it okay ? Or Whether 32 inch 2k monitor is a good buy?. Help me with my buying decision.
When you see this for the first time, you may feel that your decision was a mistake, but after a few months, you will get used to it and feel comfortable. I am using it at 1080p with no issues. However, I plan to move it to my new house as a TV and get a proper monitor for productivity tasks because the adjustments and compromises aren't worth it for coding, web browsing, etc. If your primary use case is gaming with occasional productivity tasks, this is an excellent monitor. It's ideal for people like you.
Is this monitor that big that I need to sit far to watch movies, do coding and all properly? Should I opt for 38 inch or this. Please recommend. Thanks
27 inches is perfect for coding. I haven't used a 32-inch monitor, but I think that would be okay. Stay away from 38-inch or 43-inch monitors for coding or content creation.
@TechKerala Hi, i hope you are doing good. I am looking to buy this smart monitor. I wanted to know from you if this is HDR monitor. If i can watch my HDR10 movies on this? And is there any ghosting in the low light scenarios. Your reply would be appreciated.
@@TechKerala Thank you for the reply, have you tried to play any HDR content? I asked this question because lg website doesnt state if it is HDR or not. And some websites say it is and some say it is not.
@@TechKerala could not open the photo but i assume it says HDR next to the quality of the video when we select the quality of the video. Thank you for your fast reply! Appreciate it.
@@samsharma1482 I am not sure if it's proper HDR or not, but it does show HDR when we play HDR videos, and the brightness is okay. However, the overall brightness is low, so I am not sure if this is proper HDR. This is a low-budget option. I think OLED TVs are much better.
@@TechKerala I want a few more details if you don't mind --- Does it have a joystick/nipple-control button under the TV -- I can see that there is something in the middle of the screen at the bottom. Also, when we power ON, if the TV is connected to the Computer does it boot/load into PC or LG TV's WebOS -- do we have to always go to the WebOS' HomeDashboard and manually change to PC ? Thanks a lot.
That is a single-button control that allows you to turn on the TV when it's off without using the remote. This single button also allows you to select the menu, increase the volume, and perform other functions. A single click will switch the selection, and a long press will select an item. It's not the most versatile feature, but it's useful if you've misplaced the remote. When you connect to a PC or any other HDMI device, the TV will remember the connection and automatically display the corresponding interface, eliminating the need to navigate through WebOS. This TV turns on very quickly, but if there is no signal, it will display a "no signal" message on the screen. Pressing the home button or input button will take you to WebOS.
Are you a gamer? If so, then okay. This monitor is very big and unusable at 4K resolution because you will see pixels too often. It is usable at 2K resolution, but you can still see pixels if you look for them. I would not recommend this as a primary monitor. If you are a programmer or content creator. This is a very good display for content consumption such as watching CCTV footage live or TH-cam, Movies, running analytics live etc. Very good secondary monitor with very good colours and decent speakers.
@sergiomomos6297 no issues. But I use it as a second screen most of the time. Mostly watching movies/TH-cam. I will not recommend this as your primary productivity monitor. Because it’s too big. 27 or 32 will be much better if you are going to use it for video editing, programming etc. for Gaming, casual office work , Movie watching etc this is really good.
Hi, thanks for this great review! Do you think this would suffice for an office setup (maybe using only half the real estate to keep it manageable)? Or would text not be sharp enough? I'm concerned the PPI might be too low for super sharp text, but the option to kick back and watch a movie on the same big screen (without a computer) would be nice. I would like to use this monitor for work - reviewing multiple long, dense, small-text documents on-screen at the same time. I had a 34" VA ultrawide (3440x1440), which was too low resolution to see really crisp, sharp text. Then I got a 32" 4k IPS that was super crisp and sharp, perfect (I had to return it due to a defect). But now I see these 43" ones for under $500 and think I would love even more real estate for work (maybe I'm getting greedy, lol). I think I know the answer but don't want to admit that I should just get 32" or 27" for work, and also get a separate, bigger 4K TV for entertainment rather than trying to combine them into one all-purpose screen.
34" VA ultrawide (3440x1440) means you are using 2k resolution for 34" size , 2k sweetspot is 27", if you are going 43"+ , go for dual 4k ultrawide around that size.
Panel quality is subpar, uses RGBW which misses details on lots of things. Maybe from a viewing distance and/or to watch movies or play games it's OK but not for working. *I may say that I have the LG 43UN700-B and it's a much better device. Also, it's more like a TV without the antenna, does not support things like DDC/CI.
Excellent review. I am a programmer and want to use multiple screen on this display. Will it support? I dont play games, want to use it professionally. Do you think it is good fit? Planning to use it from MacBook air. Highly appreciated.
Native 4K is not usable for most tasks; you will need to scale it down, and you will still see pixels. This is why 43" 4K is good for entertainment first and some productivity here and there. For a primary monitor, I would get a 27-inch or 32-inch 4K or 5K monitor.
Initially I ordered this but then moved on to get Benq Mobiuz EX3210U only because of the sheer size of this also EX3210U comes with HDMI 2.1 it will serve both as everyday monitor as well as a gaming monitor also EX3210U has a AI cancelling microphone. I was thinking did a spend more and I should have stuck with this LG monitor but after seeing the size of it going for 32 inch monitor was a better option. But anyway monitor is nice. Good and Happy coding 😀
I saw many optimistic videos about 43-inch displays on TH-cam. Maybe they are right if we are only using it for gaming. My primary objective is to use this as a primary monitor occasionally, such as to change BIOS settings on my ESXi server or to use my M1 MacMini. Most of the time, I am using it for TH-cam! Then, AirPlay 2. Your decision to go with a 32-inch display is brilliant, because a 4K display at 43 inches is not a very good experience as a primary monitor, even if it is an 8K display. This is because it is too big.
@@TechKerala Thanks I needed a monitor for everyday use. Even I was using a 2K 24 inch Lenovo monitor and wanted to switch. So did some research and came to same conclusion as you for any kind of entertainment 4k 43 or even higher is really good. But not for daily coding as we have to move mouse a lot.
I like to use all apps in full-screen mode. The problem is, I need to turn my head to see what's happening on the other side of the display/app. Also, I can’t ignore the visible pixels.
@@TechKerala I work on after effects a lot, so I need to preview several precomps and projects to add to my compositions. With a smaller display, those previews are really small and makes it hard for me choose the right ones. With a bigger display, the problem is practically solved for me. I sit a bit away from the display so, no issues. But the led lights can be really straining for the eyes while working for longer duration, that's the only issue for me.
@@whiteboardexplainers I was diagnosed with severe dry eyes, which made my vision feel as though I'd lost more than -0.75. I was prescribed glasses for the first time, but after testing, it turned out most of my issues were due to dry eyes. Now, I use lubricating drops and don’t need reading glasses, but my dry eyes persist. This display feels uncomfortably large for me, and even adjusting brightness doesn’t help. lowering it makes text harder to read, worsening eye strain. I’ll try a 164 PPI monitor next, and if that doesn’t work, I might switch to an Apple display with 200+ PPI. This one is about 109 PPI.
@@dipakdarekar9399 That is why I said it is both. You can use this for presentations, mount a camera, and use USB-C with 65W PD. For casual gamers and people who need to watch movies, this is perfect. I browse the web and recently started doing a little bit of programming with this. However, when I code, I run at 1080p on my Mac Mini. So, this is NOT a good option for coding or photo editing. But All other users can run this monitor without any issue, whether for MS Word, trading, watching movies, or playing games.
@@TechKeralawhy do you keep mentioning that it’s not good for editing? Hope to hear your feedback. I’ve been editing on a Sony 42” 1080p tv for years and the colors are very accurate to my iPhone colors. Ive been wanting to get this for photo editing. If I’m used to a monitor this big already would you say I should get it, or is there other reasons you don’t recommend it for editing? Thank you!
Honestly, I don't recommend this for photo editing or video editing because I prefer not to see pixels. A monitor should have a pixel density of 300 PPI or more; a retina display has spoiled me, and now I can't look at any display with less than 300 PPI. If you are a professional, you should consider getting a 27-inch Dell UltraSharp monitor or a similar model from other brands. You could also check out LG OLED TVs.
If you can repurpose this or return this , maybe try and see yourself. I am not saying your can't do this kind of tasks on this monitor. You can, but Dell ultrasharp or similar monitor is designed for professionals for a reason.

I am a programmer and want to use multiple screen on this display. Will it support?
I dont play games, want to use it professionally. Do you think it is good fit? Planning to use it from MacBook air.
Highly appreciated.
Native 4K is not usable for most tasks; you will need to scale it down, and you will still see pixels. This is why 43" 4K is good for entertainment first and some productivity here and there. For a primary monitor, I would get a 27-inch or 32-inch 4K or 5K monitor.
Hdmi version
Initially I ordered this but then moved on to get Benq Mobiuz EX3210U only because of the sheer size of this also EX3210U comes with HDMI 2.1 it will serve both as everyday monitor as well as a gaming monitor also EX3210U has a AI cancelling microphone. I was thinking did a spend more and I should have stuck with this LG monitor but after seeing the size of it going for 32 inch monitor was a better option. But anyway monitor is nice. Good and Happy coding 😀
I saw many optimistic videos about 43-inch displays on TH-cam. Maybe they are right if we are only using it for gaming. My primary objective is to use this as a primary monitor occasionally, such as to change BIOS settings on my ESXi server or to use my M1 MacMini. Most of the time, I am using it for TH-cam! Then, AirPlay 2. Your decision to go with a 32-inch display is brilliant, because a 4K display at 43 inches is not a very good experience as a primary monitor, even if it is an 8K display. This is because it is too big.
@@TechKerala Thanks I needed a monitor for everyday use. Even I was using a 2K 24 inch Lenovo monitor and wanted to switch. So did some research and came to same conclusion as you for any kind of entertainment 4k 43 or even higher is really good. But not for daily coding as we have to move mouse a lot.
I use a 55 inch tv as a monitor lol
for what purpose? I just ordered RD280UA
@TechKerala Edit videos and work on motion graphics, the extra real-estate really helps
I like to use all apps in full-screen mode. The problem is, I need to turn my head to see what's happening on the other side of the display/app. Also, I can’t ignore the visible pixels.
@@TechKerala I work on after effects a lot, so I need to preview several precomps and projects to add to my compositions. With a smaller display, those previews are really small and makes it hard for me choose the right ones. With a bigger display, the problem is practically solved for me. I sit a bit away from the display so, no issues. But the led lights can be really straining for the eyes while working for longer duration, that's the only issue for me.
@@whiteboardexplainers I was diagnosed with severe dry eyes, which made my vision feel as though I'd lost more than -0.75. I was prescribed glasses for the first time, but after testing, it turned out most of my issues were due to dry eyes. Now, I use lubricating drops and don’t need reading glasses, but my dry eyes persist.
This display feels uncomfortably large for me, and even adjusting brightness doesn’t help. lowering it makes text harder to read, worsening eye strain. I’ll try a 164 PPI monitor next, and if that doesn’t work, I might switch to an Apple display with 200+ PPI. This one is about 109 PPI.
Bro explain in comfortable language your English was not better thank you for review
But you will not understand a single word.. if I use sanskrit or Malayalam
Pure TV just removed tv connector and marketing smart monitor 0% recommendation for as a monitor use totally trap
Great job 😂
Can you speak english Plesse
Sorry.. i can't
This is not monitor this is television 👎
yes and no
@@TechKerala paid review
Yes, I paid 30K+ from my pocket.
@@TechKerala then say this is not monitor
@@dipakdarekar9399 That is why I said it is both. You can use this for presentations, mount a camera, and use USB-C with 65W PD. For casual gamers and people who need to watch movies, this is perfect. I browse the web and recently started doing a little bit of programming with this. However, when I code, I run at 1080p on my Mac Mini. So, this is NOT a good option for coding or photo editing. But All other users can run this monitor without any issue, whether for MS Word, trading, watching movies, or playing games.
scam
It's a good monitor for casual Gaming and content consumption... Not for coding or video ending
@@TechKeralawhy do you keep mentioning that it’s not good for editing? Hope to hear your feedback. I’ve been editing on a Sony 42” 1080p tv for years and the colors are very accurate to my iPhone colors. Ive been wanting to get this for photo editing. If I’m used to a monitor this big already would you say I should get it, or is there other reasons you don’t recommend it for editing? Thank you!
Honestly, I don't recommend this for photo editing or video editing because I prefer not to see pixels. A monitor should have a pixel density of 300 PPI or more; a retina display has spoiled me, and now I can't look at any display with less than 300 PPI. If you are a professional, you should consider getting a 27-inch Dell UltraSharp monitor or a similar model from other brands. You could also check out LG OLED TVs.
If you can repurpose this or return this , maybe try and see yourself. I am not saying your can't do this kind of tasks on this monitor. You can, but Dell ultrasharp or similar monitor is designed for professionals for a reason.
