Hello there! You can definitely use the LG 32GS95UE-B OLED monitor as a TV with a cable box and an Apple TV. Here are some key points to consider: Inputs: The monitor has HDMI ports, which you can use to connect both your cable box and Apple TV. Just ensure you have the necessary HDMI cables. Display Quality: With a resolution of 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) and a contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1, the monitor will provide excellent picture quality for TV viewing. Audio: The monitor features Pixel Sound speakers, but if you want a more immersive audio experience, consider connecting external speakers or a soundbar via the headphone output or HDMI ARC (if available). Functionality: Since this is primarily a monitor, some TV-specific features like built-in tuners or smart TV functions may be absent. However, since you're using external devices (cable box and Apple TV), this won't be an issue. Usage: It’s designed for gaming and content consumption, so you'll enjoy both gaming and watching TV shows or movies. Using this monitor in your space as a TV should work well without any problems. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-32gs95ue-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs —Renzo
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.A follow-on question: Can the audio volume on this monitor be controlled by the Apple TV box's remote control through the HDMI connection?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, I wouldn't think so. The monitor does not have a remote. It might work with an LG Magic Remote. I don't know for sure, the 27" 240 FPS LG OLED Monitor i have does work with the LG Magic Remote. So volume control might be shifty, unless apple TV can do that. You'll have to leave it in screensaver mode, or switch it on by hand. You'd likely be wasting money, since streaming services provide much lower FPS when streaming. A 32" 4K TV is like $100. But if you plan for dual use, it is amazing for all things PC. Gaming, browsing, video watching, (same low FPS for most online video content)
