Tall & Unusual! ~ LG's High Productivity DualUp Monitor

[@kingtaj]

As a dev, it was great to see a review from another developer about the usage and pros/cons. Very helpful to me, thanks! (PS. I ordered it tonight!)

[@chrispotterfan]

how happy are you with the monitor?

[@freedonx]

@@chrispotterfan I'm not a developer, but rather in a business environment and I prefer this over a UltraWide as I work more with webpages and internal documentation, so this has more vertical

[@amaelftah]

i really like your videos so much ... cause you review things from software developer perspective

[@minimalistik]

Thanks Ahmed!

Although it is not quote on quote 4k 2160p monitor, it is actually the same PPI as a 32 inch 16:9 4k monitor. It is no 6k 32 inch Pro Display XDR or 5k 27 inch studio display but it is as sharp as 32 inch 4k which is good enough

[@mowgli6345]

I'm gonna get one. It looks like it's popular too because a week ago, it wasn't available at regular retail price on Amazon. Hopefully they don't all get bought on Black Friday.

[@minimalistik]

Cool, hope you like it! :)

[@FluxStage]

Thank you! I've been thinking about it since release I'll just order one! Really like your videos!

[@minimalistik]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the comment 🙂

The white stand which hiding the laptop behind of screen is so cool, can you tell me more information of it?

I've been thinking about a Dualup for a secondary monitor for a while, but didnt think the stand would be suitable for my desk top shelf. You didn't actually confirm it, but in the first couple of seconds of the video it looks like you put on some of vizio adaptor? If the Dualup could be used with another stand I will definitely buy one. A very informative video, many thanks

[@edewolf1827]

I use the Eizo EV2730Q. It's a 1:1 format monitor (1920 x 1920). I love it!

[@minimalistik]

Oh wow! That' quite a unique monitor you got here! Seems like LG were maybe inspired by monitors like these.

[@leflate]

I’m really interested, just wonder where I would put the webcam…

[@lIIuminatl]

Great video, could you tell me if an iPad Pro will be able to fit directly under the monitor with the dual ups stock stand as high as it will go? I’ve measured the iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard and the height of the iPad is 9 inches tall. So what I’m wondering is will the Dual up raise up more then 9 inches off the desk? Thank you for your video

[@hannahliam3745]

great video wher do u have ur keyboard?

[@guihamelYT]

Je vois que tu utilise des Edifier MR4 et je suis très tenté de m'en acheter une paire. As-tu eu la chance de les tester? Les recommanderais-tu ? For our non-french speaking brethren, here's what I asked : I see you're using Edifier MR4s and I'm very tempted to buy myself a pair. Have you had the chance to test them? Would you recommend them?

[@minimalistik]

Hey/Allo :) I think they're surprisingly nice for the price! I think they're a better value than the Kanto YU2 or AudioEngine A2+ (more balanced sound, vs the lack of bass with these 2) but they are quite a bit bigger so they take more room on a desk.

[@LaccerHS]

Looks a bit weird, however I am rather an LG 27UP850 enjoyer. For $400 a 27" 4K DCI-P3 screen with Type-C and 96W of charging for Macs is good enough for me. There is also an UP650 variant without the Type-C feature with essentialy the same screen but for even cheaper.

[@carbon9179]

that white monitor stand is lush - do you have an embargo on it as you dont seem to mention it anywhere

[@tuongchu2867]

are you using an M1 macbook? will an M1 macbook will be able to have 1 mirror display (bottom screen) and 1 external display (top screen) on this monitor?

[@Jubenshenrism]

Where can I find the wallpaper on your computer??

[@holyvirginjd9936]

It's cute, I want it. Reminds me of Blackberry passport.. but it's expensive 👁👄👁

[@aKaScHMucK12]

link for lavender beanie?

[@naveenjetty4235]

What is the stand that you have used??

[@emilemouannes2236]

what is the monitor arm at @0:42

[@riclerico]

That keyboard is really nice… ??

[@minimalistik]

Yeah it is! It's actually the latest Keychron K3 in white with their PBT doubleshot keycaps! It's pretty cool overall for the price.

[@lostintechnology1851]

This monitor is an ergonomic nightmare if you use it as a single monitor. I do devops work and rather have a 32" 16:10 screen. Just think about how the human field of view looks like and it will make a lot of sense if the screen reaches a certain size. I agree extra vertical space is very nice but without the corresponding horizontal space I do not see the point honestly. The video editors I had taking a look at it all told me they prefer their ultrawides or multi monitor setups as well. Love the Idea of having a smaller desk footprint but that thing does not make sense as a primary display... Maybe for very specific applications but I do not see it even if all you do is staring into an ide and documentation.

[@lemonshire1]

this is cursed

[@minimalistik]

Huh?

[@lemonshire1]

monitors that aren't regular aspect ratios

[@minimalistik]

@@lemonshire1 ahhh haha it does look odd at first yeah

[@MangoTangoFox]

"I need more screen realestate" ">buys smaller monitor and cranks the UI scaling to 2x" What are you doing? Stop with the quirky hipster nonsense. Literally just buy a large >40" 4K panel (preferably OLED) and use it at 100% scaling.

[@minimalistik]

Low PPI, no thanks

[@MangoTangoFox]

​@@minimalistik PPI is irrelevant. PPD is what's relevant. And neither is relevant for text/UI-based work when you change the scaling outside of 100% like you did in the video. Your phone and tablet are VASTLY higher PPI, so which is the correct number? Why not go 27" 4K or even a smaller portable 4K monitor if you really think you care about PPI that much? You have giant standing desks, set inside giant rooms, so in what scenario would you NEED high PPI that would enable you to sit super close to the display? And conversely, how often is having these tiny displays preventing you from using them while taking a step back to multitask/exercise/etc, ya know, the point of a standing desk...

[@hugsanddrugs]

I would love to have one of these at work, but the client would never go for it, unfortunately. :(

[@minimalistik]

ahhhh no! :(
