I get it, it seems like a gimmick on wheels, but it has proved useful enough for me to write this review. I don’t agree that it’s worth it’s current 1k price point. The TV quality is subpar, LG lacks many apps available on other smart TVs, and the touch screen often pulls up a tiny remote to touch instead of actually being functional like a tablet would. It is heavy, so if you plan to carry this up and down stairs, expect a work out. The battery lasts up to 3 hours when not plugged in.
Now that I have set realistic expectations, know that this has become my little TV companion. I roll it from room to room, from one side of the couch to the other, to the kitchen. It has made doing chores feel less like… well.. a chore. I have even, from my couch, had it wirelessly connected to my Laptop, with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Very unnecessary, but also super dreamy. There are a lot of things they can improve with this device and I’m giving it 5 stars despite its short comings because for me, it serves its purpose, and I am more than happy with it. I have had it for 2+ months now and I hope they perform some software updates as it would greatly improve its capabilities beyond being able to roll around.

The LG StanbyME has quickly become one of my favorite tech purchases. The 27” Full HD display is bright and perfect for everything I need it for. I love the convenience of the built-in battery and fully adjustable stand—I can roll it around the house, tilt or rotate it for the perfect viewing angle.

When I saw this the first time, I was thinking what a friend is always telling me about solutions to non-existent problems. Those thoughts faded quickly when I am now able to watch all sorts of content from most all streaming services, plus AppleTV. It seems there's nothing I can't watch on it, and with the built-in browser I can check security cameras, watch auctions on eBay, etc.
I was able to use screen mirror from my Apple iPhone 14 Pro, but "Cast" didn't work for my Pixel 5, nor the Samsung S23 Ultra. I didn't investigate beyond the "can't find a device to cast to" or whatever the error was. It would be really great to allow the StanbyME to mirror my phone and control it via the touchscreen. Put that on the wish list too.
Setup is easy. They were very smart with the box and packaging, in that the styrofoam in the box helps you install the pole on the base. It made it so easy to align the pole and put the four screws into the bottom of the base. There is a strong warning to only plug the charging cord into the base horizontally, as it can damage the base and/or cord if installed that way. There is an escutcheon around the power plug to assist in reminding you of this. The other end of the power cord is a little wider than a normal plug, so some irregular power plug situations may be a small challenge. I didn't get a pic of that, I suppose I should have. The rest of the installation was simple as well. All the on-screen prompts are clear as to what information is required, and adding a few apps to the home screen, rearranging the home screen, and getting started was all very easy as well. One thing I would put on my wish list for this is a voice remote with speech recognition. Spoken words, numbers, and passwords are so much quicker than the on-screen keyboard (although it works quite well).
I took pics of setting it up, assembled, and the remote. It's a very nice looking piece of equipment, and performs just as well. Just goofing around with it for a few days, I only charged it twice including the initial charge. I'm sure I got close to 5 hours of use initially, but much closer to 3 when watching movies from AppleTV. Even so, it was easy enough to plug it in when the battery got low.

There’s almost no other tv like this on the market which is why I bought it for my very specific use case despite the price. The tv is well built, the stand and battery functions are great. One of the reasons I bought this was for airplay 2 functionality. It does work, but the location setting has to be reset every other day to get it functioning again. I experienced some blooming when watching darker lit content even on the default brightness settings. All in all, it is a good tv, but for its issues, high price, and only 1080p picture, it is hard to recommend unless you have a very specific use case for it. This was a gift for my wife, and I can say it is wife approved, which seems to be the purpose of this product. Style of functionality. We could have bought two cheaper tvs for each room, but it’s nice to have the option to watch tv in multiple rooms even if you don’t have a dedicated space or room for a permanent tv in a room.

Love this tv! Screen size is small but super easy to move around. I really like the height and we can pull around our couches/table when a great game is on. Note not all streaming apps work with the tv but you can use mirror feature.
Really like the touch screen and need to use it more!

I absolutely love this mobile tv. The size, mobility to move anywhere in house, can operate it from phone and all the other cool functionality it offers.

I bought this because I moved to an apartment with a large terrace so I thought this would be good for temporary outdoor use. Turns out it's really useful in lots of situations in addition to outdoor use. I use it in the kitchen for background music or video. It's also really handy to have a large portable screen for YouTube playback for repair instructions around the apartment.
I really wish this was a full Android tablet instead though. The apps in the LG store are somewhat limited and many of the apps that do exist don't actually work with the touchscreen. LG created a virtual remote control which works fine but a large Android tablet wouldn't have that problem and would have many more media apps as well.
Also, picture quality is fine but 4k would've been nice to have.
Overall, I'm happy with the purchase and I'm glad LG is willing to take a risk on unexpected form factors like this.

My favorite tech device purchase of this year. I have been holding off purchasing a TV for my living room because of the huge eyesore and my living room is oddly shape. So purchasing a tv to mount was not an option. When I came across the StandbyME I knew it was perfect. I can roll the tv to any position or location. The touchscreen is a great feature but it does come with a remote, which I love. Overall a great product if you want an adequate size TV with Smartphone technology this is perfect for you.
