Yeah well the thing most people fail to mention is that the monitor has charging problem on macOS. Sometimes when I plug it in to my Macbook Pro, the battery indicator would say not charging. Now, normally the fix for this is unplug/replug or turn off/on the Smart Power setting. But the additional issue is that the battery status seems to have a delay in updating. So sometimes when you unplug replug, it may have worked but it hasn't updated yet, so by doing it again, you actually end up breaking it. My advice would be when you plug it in, wait a few seconds maybe even a minute or two for it to update. Then check your battery status again, if its still not charging, do the replug or smart power toggling, and then wait another minute or two and check again. So overall, it kinda works, but it's extremely problematic.
I mean, it's because I don't have a Mac; can't speak for other reviewers though. It's odd that it stops charging, is that even with the USB charge option enabled/disabled in the OSD?
Don't think I'll be making any reviews of LG products mate; they've been terrible at responding to honest reviewers like myself - to the point where some of us have just boycott them :)
Thanks for the wonderful review. Would this work well with a Macbook Pro 16. I mostly do coding and would like to play games with my PS4 and stream movies. Do you suggest this over other monitors like the LG Ultrafine which seems to be more expensive though ?
Glad you found it useful! Yeah it should just plug right in, however, your PlayStation can't output more than 1080p, so it'll be capped at that resolution. Not sure about the LG, can't comment there!
curious to know what cable you used to connect the monitor, from a laptop at least I think you can connect USB-C to display port and this should resolve any freesync issues.
Yes perfect for Casual Gaming. And if you sometime play games like League of Legends or CSGO it is still better than a 60hz Monitor. I feel the difference between 60 and 75hz.
@@TotallydubbedHD Sure I enjoyed it. It's because my computer is dead. I want to make a new start. I already have the Dell inspiron 3910 and I want to buy a new monitor 27" QUHD Lenovo. My "old"monitor HP 2309m still works.
A terrible monitor. Shipped with UK power connecting cable (does not have the right end), that does not fit into the supplied power adapter that shipped with the monitor! Now having purchased the right cable from Amazon, the monitor powers up, but despite connecting my Lenovo Yoga to the Monitor USB C connecting cable, the monitor is not detected! Overall terrible experience. Do not buy this monitor!
Buy the Lenovo Q27h from Amazon: locally.link/E129

That is the q27h-10. I have 3 of the newer q27h-20 which is just being discontinued now.
Wonder if a q27h-30 is in the pipeline.
Love it man 💪
Cheers!

@@TotallydubbedHD Actually I think there's a workaround I'll go ahead and edit my comment accordingly
@@AlphaNiner-yk8kh thanks for updating :)
@@TotallydubbedHD yep so like it works but not perfectly and Lenovo haven’t released a fix yet as of late
@@AlphaNiner-yk8kh do you know if the issue has been fixed?
thanks dude!
Np!
Thanks for your video and your information regarding backlight bleeding 😜 (had to watch your video twice^^)
;)
3:45 there is software version for menu.
What do you think about the LG 24GN600/24GN650? Are you going to make a video about it? Keep on with the great videos and reviews!!

UltraFine all the way man, this one has charging problems on the MacBook Pro that there is no fix for
Charging problems for MacBooks I’ve heard. Will it work well with Mac minis connecting usb-c?
@@jessehampton3725 don't know buddy, sorry!

Indeed that should be fine!
Is it good for doing casual gaming and programming?
Yes perfect for Casual Gaming. And if you sometime play games like League of Legends or CSGO it is still better than a 60hz Monitor. I feel the difference between 60 and 75hz.
Do you have any issues with the backlight bleeding most of the time? or only when you are in a extremely dark room and you display a black screen?
Only in extreme conditions; as per my video :)
The new version is adjustable in height
Good
8:40 color thing disappointing me.
Is this the Q27H-20 or the 10?
Lenovo G27q-20 vs q24h-10 Which is best?
Programming and movies.
Want use as external monitor for thinkpad t490.
Don't think I've tried the other.
Not sure if I missed it but how many watts pd does the type c have?
Best checking on the specs or asking Lenovo; can't remember!
hello have vesa mount? thanks
Game performance is good? Im ps5 User
How bout Gigabyte M27Q?
No idea mate, not tried Gigabyte products for a while + they haven't responded to queries either.
Can I use the lenovo q24i monitor with just a ps4 console
No idea about that monitor
Have vesa?
Hi, i want to buy this monitor, but there is also a new one the Q27Q-20 possible review???? Thanks !

Sorry to hear that.
Good monitor for the series x at all?
Its refresh rate is a limitation, so no
Can I connect this monitor to my Lenovo y700 15isk?
Probably?
