Product Overview

LG 32MN500M is an entry-level 32-inch FHD monitor. Despite its large display area, the monitor only comes with FHD resolution; this should not be surprising, given its "M" designation by LG: In essence, the 32MN500M is designed for price-sensitive consumers and businesses who do not need higher resolution.
Arguably the successor to the 32ML600 (though the 32MN50W shares this title), the 32MN500M is all but a 2020 ("N" model year) carbon copy of the former. The only notable difference is the deletion of the VGA port: The 32MN500M is HDMI-only. Those who want the VGA port need to go for the 32MN50W instead.
Still, for this small difference, LG is selling the 32MN500M at an even lower price. This detailed segmentation of the market gives consumers and businesses a lot of choices, without paying for features that they don't need.
Likewise, the IPS panel with good color reproduction and 75Hz refresh rate work in the advantage of 32MN500M.
