Apple’s 27-inch Studio Display is an excellent monitor, but it doesn’t have an excellent price. But this 27-inch LG UltraFine at Amazon does. Normally $280, it’s down to $220 for Black Friday, the absolute best price this model’s ever been.
You won’t get a camera or spatial audio, but this LG UltraFine will deliver crisp and clear 3480x2160p resolution and 60Hz refresh rate. Alongside that 5ms response time, this monitor is better suited for handling your daily workload and watching YouTube than it is for gaming, but if you’re hooking it up to a Mac, you probably don’t mind. You can adjust this monitor exactly how you want it, tilting and pivoting it, and adjusting its height at just the right spot so your neck and back stop complaining as much. Oh, and it doesn’t hurt that it looks absolutely gorgeous and will fit right in with all your sleek Apple gear.
Just note it connects via HDMI, so if you have a MacBook Air, you’ll need an HDMI-to-USB-C adapter to connect it to your Mac’s DisplayPort. Otherwise, the LG UltraFine 4K IPS display is the monitor your office needs, especially now that it’s more affordable than ever at its Black Friday $220 price point.
