Product Overview

LG 27UP650 is a mid-range 27-inch 4K monitor that features a 10-bit IPS panel and comes with VESA DisplayHDR 400 support. Based on the 27UP600, the 27UP650 differs in having a more useful monitor stand that offers not only tilt but also height, and pivot adjustments.
Like the 27UP600, the 27UP650 uses the same IPS panel found in the more exclusive 27UP850; it differs in dropping the USB-C hub, which may be a good tradeoff for many. While it is not up to the standards set by LG's Nano IPS models, the 27UP650 sits at the sweet spot between function and affordability.
