Al though it is made from plastic it is light weight and sturdier than i first thought! Great picture quality and easy plug and play setup! Stand is okay.

I recently purchased the LG Gram Portable Monitor, and I have to say, I'm extremely impressed with its performance. The monitor is incredibly lightweight and slim, making it perfect for my on-the-go lifestyle. The picture quality is outstanding, with vibrant colors and sharp resolution.

Overall, I highly recommend the LG Gram Portable Monitor to anyone in need of a high-quality, portable display.

I absolutely love this portable monitor! I'm able to use it on my home and work computer with no issues. The display, brightness and colors are awesome and I could not have asked for a better picture quality. However, in the next version, I highly recommend that LG adds an HDMI slot so users can display their iPhone content, a headphone jack for speakers/headphones and finally, a better protective cover. I love the fact that the device is lightweight but adding these few extra features would make this monitor so much more appealing to a larger consumer base.

Great LG gram +view Monitor, But Returned

Initial Inquiry & Decision:
I was looking for a portable, high-quality secondary screen to complement my laptop and improve my productivity, especially for remote work and travel. The LG gram +view monitor, with its 16” WQXGA IPS display and vibrant DCI-P3 99% color gamut, seemed like an excellent choice to expand my workspace.
Unboxing, Build Quality, & Testing:
The monitor impressed immediately with its sharp, bright 16:10 aspect ratio screen, delivering brilliant colors even in varied lighting conditions thanks to its anti-glare coating and IPS technology. The lightweight design, under a pound and a half, made it easy to carry and set up wherever I went. The included folio cover allowed for versatile use in both horizontal and vertical orientations with smooth auto-pivot features. Connectivity was simple with dual USB Type-C ports, and the LG Switch app made adjusting display settings and multitasking hassle-free.
However, despite its excellent quality, I ultimately returned the monitor as I needed something better suited for a true dual-monitor setup to match my evolving work requirements, which this single portable monitor could not fully satisfy.
Overall Impressions and Recommendation:
The LG gram +view is a fantastic portable monitor with brilliant visuals, solid build quality, and user-friendly features. Although it didn't fit my specific dual-monitor needs, it remains highly recommended for anyone seeking a top-tier secondary screen for on-the-go productivity or presentations.

Use case - remote work and day trading. Brightness and matte screen is helpful working in brighter environments. 2560x1600 is great for my use case. Would be nice to have a higher refresh rate than 60hz.

Excellent monitor for travelling when the laptop is not enough and you need 2 monitors.
Resolution is great. The new cover allows for both protractor and landscape bit is a bit clumsy Than the previous fix version.
A little heavy on the back back, but much better image than cheaper lower resolution alternatives. I now always travel with it.
The app is OK, but necessary to automatic rotate from landscape to portrait.

I bought this monitor to boost my productivity as I found myself being on the road more. It provides great color accuracy and the 2K resolution makes the picture crisp and clear. It may not be the best gaming monitor but for work this is perfect.

I travel frequently for work and I’m also working on a MBA. Having the extra screen to do my homework, update multiple spreadsheets at once, and create presentations has made it easier to complete work faster. It also helps me give presentations from my laptop to small groups. The monitor fits with my laptop in the laptop slot of my backpack. I’ve taken on several trips overseas and many stateside trips with no damage to the screen.

One of the best items for road warriors. Very sharp and bright view makes this monitor very pleasurable to work with. It is incredibly light weight. If you travel a lot and you need to build yourself a nomadic office, this item works like a charm.

This monitor is great for using at home and while traveling. Amazingly light weight and thin. I have this paired with a 16” MacBookPro and the brightness rivals the native MacBook screen brightness.
I will say if you are using this with an Apple laptop you watch a few videos and pick some software to fix the blurriness. The blurriness is no fault of this monitor but instead of how Apple handles different resolutions with external monitors.
I would recommend this external ans may pick up a second.

The monitor itself is an excellent 5-star. However, the stand for the monitor is super flimsy. Because this is a travel monitor, it really limits where it can be used.
