[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 💻 The Hybrid Hero: LG Smart Monitor 32U721SA-W Review (32-inch 4K UHD) 📺 In the age of remote work and home entertainment hubs, space and versatility are everything. I recently switched to the LG Smart Monitor (32U721SA-W), and it has successfully replaced two devices on my desk: my old PC monitor and the small TV I used for streaming. This monitor is a true hybrid hero, delivering a seamless experience for both productivity and pure entertainment. Design & Setup: Minimalist Excellence The design is classically LG—clean, minimalist, and premium. The white finish of the 32U721SA-W model is sleek and helps the large 31.5-inch panel blend into a modern home office or living space. Setup was incredibly simple. The stand is sturdy, and the overall footprint is manageable for a 32-inch screen. What makes it a standout is the connectivity: • USB-C with 65W Power Delivery: This is a game-changer. I connect my laptop with a single USB-C cable. It immediately powers the laptop, displays the 4K video, and gives me access to the built-in USB-A ports for peripherals. It is the ultimate one-cable docking solution. • Two HDMI 2.0 Ports: Perfect for connecting a gaming console or a desktop PC alongside your laptop. Productivity Performance: Crisp 4K Detail As a daily work monitor, the 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution on the 32-inch VA panel is stunning. Text is crystal-clear, which is vital for long hours of coding, writing, or spreadsheet work. The sheer screen real estate allows for genuine multi-tasking—I can comfortably tile four windows and see everything clearly without needing to squint. • Vivid Colour: With a 90% DCI-P3 colour gamut and HDR10 support, the colours are rich and vibrant. This is a noticeable step up from standard monitors, making photo editing and graphic design work accurate and enjoyable. • LG Switch: The included software (or accessible via the remote) allows for quick switching between the connected PC and the built-in Smart TV mode. It truly makes the monitor feel like two separate appliances in one. The Smart Experience: webOS and Content Hub This is where the 'Smart Monitor' differentiates itself. Running LG's award-winning webOS platform, it functions exactly like an LG Smart TV when the PC is off or switched to the Smart mode. • Streaming Heaven: All the major streaming apps are pre-installed or easily downloadable—Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, YouTube, etc. I can finish working, press one button, and immediately start streaming a movie in beautiful 4K without ever turning on my main computer. • Cable-Free Connectivity: Features like Apple AirPlay 2 and Screen Share for Android devices are seamless. I often use AirPlay to cast content or mirror my phone screen instantly. • Home Office & Fitness: webOS also includes productivity apps like Remote PC access and a Home Hub. This allows for video conferencing and accessing cloud services even without a dedicated PC connected. For home fitness, it’s brilliant to pull up a YouTube workout video on the 32-inch screen and follow along. Gaming & Media Consumption While it's not a high refresh rate gaming monitor (it runs at 60Hz with a 5ms response time), it is an excellent display for console and casual PC gaming. The 4K resolution enhances the visual detail of games massively, delivering a truly cinematic experience. The wide viewing angles (178°) of the VA panel mean the whole family can comfortably watch a movie together. • Acoustics Note: Like many monitors, the built-in speakers are passable. They work fine for general streaming and system sounds, but for a true immersive cinema or gaming experience, you'll want to connect a soundbar or external speakers via Bluetooth or the audio output. Final Verdict The LG Smart Monitor 32U721SA-W is the ideal purchase for anyone looking to consolidate their technology in a confined space—be it a bedroom, a small apartment, or a dedicated home office. It is a fantastic 4K monitor for work and a superb Smart TV for play, all wrapped up in one elegant package. The discount I received made the value proposition incredible, effectively getting two premium devices for the price of one. If you value flexibility, high resolution, and a clean workspace, look no further.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This screen from Lg is fantastic. It is multi- purpose and can be used for a variety of tasks such as home working and catching up on your much loved tv programmes. Has a wide range of apps you can use and also has a good selection of ports and ways to connect with your laptop or home computer. Easy to set up and a very effective addition to the home office or snug, can be used as a tv or smart monitor. Looks great and very clean, fits well in any room or setting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s been the best screen I’ve used in my life , super cool design looks perfect , amazing quality , comfortable to use , good performance when using I do recommend buying it fit well in any room design

A great product to pair with small laptop screen to enhance your productivity. Do remember to connect using USB C instead of HDMI to get better refresh rates.

I have been using this TV for the last one year.. I have not faced any problem till now.. As far as its performance is concerned, it is a very good TV.. Everyone should buy this TV.

amazing using it for ps5 for gaming at night and remote makes it so easy to use it and the app as well am not able to find a wall mount for it

Great product and can be functioning as tv or monitor with good pixel density. But pretty hassle to access the usb ports as hidden at the back.

Got this and loving it! The monitor is awesome. I am only giving 3 stars because of some really stupid factors/issues PROS: - Beautiful bright screen (27" is brighter than 32") - Excellent colour reproduction - Lots of options and customizing for settings, apps, display - app control from phone - solid stand & base CONS: - LACK of INFO & SPECS (What version of Bluetooth? What version of WIFI?) - Where is the LG webcam that this has connection for !? Difficult to find and buy one! - Default apps and setting are bloatware and need a lot of settings adjusted, deleting etc.. - Quality control on the outer monitor casing. Warped, curved, untrimmed moulding edges... - No audio out. Bluetooth only. No aux stereo output or optical out. - Speakers are not very good. This monitor should have better sound for all the media playback and settings it features...it has to be paired with external BT speakers, especially for music. - remote is important to all the features of this monitor but it is the cheapest component of this - white is the only colour option *my monitor was missing the HDMI cable, LG forgot to put one in the box :(

Not compatible with magic remote. Sometimes auto restart not sure why. screen is clear. So far no issues.

Almost a 5 star product! This monitor is not build for everyone but it is good for what I am doing. Opening multiple windows is perfect. Text are definitely readable and viewing distance is around an arm's length. There is a reason why this monitor nits are not too bright as it will just strain your eyes. The blacks are excellent. As this is a huge monitor, I expect some light to drop off at both left and right angle of screen when viewing on white background when you are viewing at 50-60cm away. Optimal viewing distance is around 100-120cm.

LOVE IT AFTER AN UPGRADE FROM MY 27 INCH MONITOR SO EASY TO READ TEXT ONLY THING I DO NOT LIKE IS THE POSITION ON THE HDMI SLOTS VERY HARD TO ACCESS BEHIND A BIG MONITOR

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great budget 4k option. Also the screen is fully wall mountable ignore what the LG team member said. You just need 20mm M4 screws and risers for whatever wall mounting bracket you use. I used the Mount it MI-442 TV Wall mount.

I bought this monitor on Nov 2023 and it's been 5 months since this purchase and I am very much satisfied with the monitors performance this is a balanced version of TV and a Monitor with all the features of a smart TV with the less response time only downside are the speakers which quite suppress the vocals highlighting the treble more than required

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't use the monitor a lot. After purchasing, use it for less than 15 times. After the first few times, I started having issues with it. I use it as my laptop's extended monitor, first I found the brightness and contrast of the monitor cannot be tuned. After submitting repair ticket, I only receive an email directing me to a website which didn't help at allAt daytime, it's too deem and at night, it's too bright. Later on, I found after my laptop went to sleep mode, and monitor is down. When my laptop is back from sleeping, the monitor cannot get back to work. And nothing helps unless I re-plug the power supply. Such a bad experience with a new purchasing. This is my first LG product and it left me a very very bad impression of LG products - poor quality.

Strong recommendation for SMART monitor usage (e.g., YouTube, Netflix) with perfect display, convenience with ThinkQ App and Good speaker quality as well. But there's some eye strain issues for main usage of monitor (e.g., Office job purpose)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor is amazing! It is a huge monitor and I love it! I can use my monitor for anything, work, gaming and to watch movies and videos. The colors are great, bright and vibrant. I love it comes with speakers that actually sound good. It is a smart monitor, that means you can enjoy different apps and streamings without connecting it to another device but in case you need to, this monitor has several different ports (including 3 USB ports) that will allow you to connect whatever you want, this made me love even more my monitor. Now I spend all day in front of my monitor. Mornings working and in the evenings playing video games or watching movies. I highly recommend the 43SQ700S-W LG monitor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the white aesthetic as it matches my decor the bedroom and this size of 43 inches is perfect for putting at the foot of the bed. The only negative thing about this monitor is it has two HDMI inputs, one of which is used for eARC. I ended up using a small HDMI switcher, which solved my issues with multiple inputs. I really like the on screen streaming platform that LG uses since it’s so easy to use. The monitors 4K resolution is great for gaming as well. Thank you insiders for taking care of my broken, monitor and shipping and getting me a fully functional and awesome product from LG.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First things, this monitor is HUGE. At 43 inches it's essentially a mid-sized TV and it also has the apps to make it a competent one. From a monitor perspective, it's got enough ports that you'll be able to find one that matches what your computer needs. I liked that it had a VESA mount because it meant that I could mount it on the wall with a standard wall bracket. Image quality is solid. It's an IPS panel so you won't get those deep OLED blacks, but still it's very good for normal day to day use. I've got this monitor connected to the family computer so it sees a lot of use and between web browsing, video streaming, and homework help, we have been happy with the monitor. The only thing I would suggest is to have a good wireless keyboard/mouse for use with the monitor. It's a very big monitor to have on a desk and trying to use it on one while also sitting 1-2 feet from the monitor is a lot of screen in your face. All in all, I really enjoy this monitor, its picture quality, and the ability to watch shows on it without needing to boot up my computer.

The monitor has been great so far. It’s been an adjustment going from 2 monitors to just this one but it has worked flawlessly and I’m very impressed
