Product Overview

LG 27UN880 UltraFine is a variation of the 27UN850, which sits atop LG's 2020 ("N" series) monitor lineup in the 27-inch class. It switches out the standard height-tilt-pivot stand with an ergonomic stand (marketed as Ergo by LG) but is identical otherwise.
Alongside the 32UN880, the 27UN880 is a new addition to LG's portfolio. The idea is that in certain business and creative use cases a monitor that can swivel and extend is preferable. While there are aftermarket solutions out there and LG's monitors all have VESA mounts, the 27UN880 comes with said stand straight out of the box.
Other highlights of this monitor include a 10-bit IPS panel with 99% sRGB coverage as well as VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification.
