LG 27BN88U UltraFine Ergo 27" 4K Monitor (2020)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
LG 27BN88U UltraFine Ergo is a flagship 4K UHD monitor designed for business use. It is virtually indistinguishable from the 27UN880 from the same model year (2020, "N"), and purchase decisions should be based on spot price.
Like the 27UN880, the 27BN88U is based on the 27UN850. They all boast a 10-bit IPS panel with 99% sRGB coverage. LG claims 95% DCI-P3 coverage for the 27BN88U, too, though this still is the same panel. Refresh rate is capped at 75Hz, as this is not a monitor designed for gaming. There is also a built-in USB-C hub with 60W power delivery.
It is essentially the best 27-inch monitor in LG's 2020 small business lineup.
