Using Imac As Monitor For Windows Laptop

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A very useful product. Tested it on my iMac and Windows laptop and it worked without an glitch. Fast download speed of ethernet port. Slick design for travel storage. Feels lightweight but built quality is exceptional. I highly recommend.

easy to use, and a sharp monitor as described. It works great with windows laptop and ipad.

Using a windows 8 laptop that is not touchscreen can be frustrating at times. Adding this really handy gadget totally changed my Windows 8 experience and now my laptop is really fun to use!! I definitely recommend this product it was pretty easy to set up and works really nicely.

Using an Asus ux501vw laptop, Windows 10, latest drivers and firmware. Works great! Write speed (Raid 0) 350MB/sec. Moved 1TB without any problems.

Works perfectly to connect my iMac to my new laptop. Voila--small laptop now has a large monitor!

This is the monitor I have been looking for to work along with my m1 MacBook and windows work laptop. Have had it since Friday but really put it through the test on Sunday with a full 12 hours data pull for work. All i need is the thunderbolt 4 cable and I automatically receive power of up to 96w and display. I am comfortable with 75hz as I don't game but that may be a downside for some people who do. Setup was simple and took less than a minute. Having one cable do all the work minimizes clutter. It has a super resolution mode so text and colors pop. Great for editing my photos on light room. If you're looking for one monitor like me this is an absolute beast. Multiple windows working simultaneously. Only issue I have is the 5k resolution option on M1 Macbook as the text and applications are way too small. I hope apple introduces layout scaling as my hp work lap top allows me to use 5k with text and image scaling. It troubles me but something I can live with. Other than that it seems to be holding up. I will say although not sure if it was my windows laptop but I it blacked out on me twice during the 12 hour work time, both times were a good 3 seconds. As for my Macbook haven't had that issue.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was super excited when my LG monitor arrived! I have been using a laptop screen along with a small second screen but knew I needed even more screen space to be as efficient as possible. The LG UltraWide 49-inch monitor is big, really big! It provides all the space I need! I can have at least 4 full-size browser windows open at a time and many more smaller windows open if I choose. The unboxing and stand assembly was super easy. The stand attaches without tools and I had the monitor together and on my desk within minutes. I very quickly realized my existing desk setup was not going to be deep enough - which is not a bad thing! I will trade having this new monitor for an adjustment to my desktop any day! I am very impressed with the stand. You can adjust the monitor to a wide range of heights and you can also tilt the monitor horizontally and vertically to meet your needs. LG hit it out of the park when it comes to the stand! But I am most happy with the screen itself, of course. I have the resolution set as high as it will go - 5120 x 1440 - and it is super sharp and super clear. The on-screen settings are simple to navigate and well engineered. The monitor connected flawlessly with my laptop. One cool perk - the monitor charges my laptop so I don't have to use my laptop's charging cord. Saves on space and cord clutter. I am very happy with my LG UltraWide monitor. I would recommend it to anyone!

A USB-C to DisplayPort adapter was necessary to connect an external monitor to the office supplied Windows laptop. This fairly inexpensive adapter does the job well with no video artifacts while performing typical office tasks. When connected the monitor was instantly recognized by the OS and the adapter didn't cause any issues.

Bought this monitor to hook up to my laptop that I use for both gaming and work. With the 27inch monitor I'm able to pull up two windows while working and still see what I am working on. With the 144hz my monitor can keep pace with the output of my laptops gpu. Overall I am happy with purchase.

Using it for my monitor.
