LG launches new Smart Monitor with 4K display and AirPlay 2: Check specifications here

The South Korean tech giant LG has released a new smart monitor with a 4K screen resolution, AirPlay 2 and runs on WebOS. The smart monitor is a successor of the LG StanbyMe (yes, that was its name) released in February this year, which only offered 1080p resolution. However, the model had availability issues, and in spite of coming in a battery-powered variant, StanbyMe did not do well. Nevertheless, the new LG Smart Monitor with model number 32SQ780S seems promising. 

LG's new Smart Monitor comes with a 4K display

First, the LG Smart Monitor comes with a 32-inch 4K screen, which makes the monitor both handy and useful. It runs on WebOS, a Linux-based operating system for smart monitors and TVs developed by the company. The smart monitor also has a feature called AirPlay 2 that allows it to stream audio to multiple devices simultaneously. Users can use the smart monitor to relay audio to multiple Bluetooth speakers or headsets simultaneously. 

In terms of connectivity, the LG Smart Monitor provides many options, including two HDMI ports, three USB-A ports, one USB-C port and an RJ45 port if someone wants to use a wired internet connection. Hence, users can connect the smart monitor to a plethora of devices. In addition, the monitor comes with a triple-jointed stand that can be adjusted at several angles. It has a built-in clamp that holds it in place and provides a sturdy point of movement for the monitor. 

The LG Smart Monitor could be priced at around US $499

Overall, the LG smart monitor is a hybrid monitor/TV as it provides all the functionality of a smart TV unless one wants a large TV screen. The 32-inch LG Smart Monitor is listed on Amazon; however, it cannot be ordered now. The price of the smart monitor will reportedly be around US $499, and it will come in a white finish only. However, LG has not yet announced a smart monitor release date; hence, the pricing can change.

PS5 unboxing videos show how huge the console is

To say that Sony has been a bit coy when it comes to the PlayStation 5 would be a bit of an understatement. The company only recently announced the India pricing of the console and now finally we have unboxings of the console going live and one thing is pretty clear - The console is HUGE!  So what do you get in the box? Well… besides the console itself (and the manuals), you get: DualSense controller USB Type-C charging cable for the controller HDMI 2.1 cable Power cable for the console (no bulky adapter/box) Plastic stand Now the plastic stand is used if you place the console on its side. As there is no flat surface on either side of the console, the stand will ensure that it remains still. But you can also place it when propping up the console vertically. However, it does seem like the PS5 can stand on its own vertically if need be. IGN’s unboxing video gives you a good idea of how to place the stand. All of the unboxing videos mention the size of the console because it is pr...
