LG’s new 32-inch Smart Monitor has AirPlay 2 for streaming content

LG monitor with AirPlay 2

The 4K 60Hz monitor’s smarts come from the company’s webOS, the software that also powers LG smart TVs. It includes a variety of streaming apps, such as Netflix and Hulu, as well as a smart home control panel to control some connected smart accessories.

The monitor also supports AirPlay 2, an upgrade to Apple’s original network protocol for streaming audio or video from an Apple device to another device over the network. In particular, AirPlay 2 allows people to stream audio to multiple devices at once.

The monitor features an Ergo stand, LG’s ergonomic stand that users can adjust to the desired height, angle and distance for comfortable viewing.

It can be extended and retracted from zero to 180mm, or just over seven inches, pivot about 280 degrees in total, and rotate 90 degrees to a horizontal or vertical position. The tilt range is approximately 25 degrees, and people can adjust the height of the monitor from zero to 130 mm, or about 5.1 inches.

LG includes a USB-C 65W port, two HDMI ports, three USB-A ports and an Ethernet port.
