LG Unveil New AirPlay 2 Compatible 4K Monitors

LG Electronics is planning to unveil a new range of smart monitors, named ‘LG MyView,’ at CES 2024 later this month. Designed for both productivity and entertainment, each monitor features LG’s own webOS platform, offering both user-friendly attributes and connectivity options, which also includes AirPlay 2, which is always of interest to Apple and Apple HomeKit users. Debuting in 2024, the LG MyView range will emphasise a personalised user experience via the company’s premium smart monitors. The more expensive in the range, the 32SR85U will be available for purchase at US$599.99 on LG.com and authorised retailers, like Amazon, while the 32SR70U and 32SR83U can be found for US$499.99 each. Details on availability in the US and other regions will be disclosed later.

These new smart monitors will allow users to stream content, listen to music, and work remotely without requiring a computer connection. The 2024 models, including the 32SR85U, boast LG IPS 4K displays, for superior picture quality. With webOS, these smart monitors feature an intuitive interface but also allow for a user-tailored user experience, and access to a diverse range of apps. To cater to varied preferences, some LG MyView models come in colours like Essence White, Mild Beige, Cotton Pink, and Cotton Green.


Adopting 31.5-inch, 4K IPS panels, the new LG MyView displays show off LG’s reputation for excellent picture quality in the smart monitor category. The monitors are designed to enhance the viewing experience and save space, with a slim form factor and a 3-side virtually borderless design. The 32SR85U and 32SR83U include an adjustable stand with a circular cutout, while the 32SR70U features a low-profile base for a compact appearance. The 32SR85U has earned recognition with a CES 2024 Innovation Award, a 2023 Red Dot Design Award, and a 2023 iF Design Award.

Equipped with webOS 23, LG MyView supports remote work and home entertainment, offering access to popular streaming services and productivity programs like Microsoft 365 and Google Calendar, amongst others. The monitors also support AirPlay 2 and Miracast for wireless screen mirroring. Built-in WiFi and Bluetooth facilitate internet connectivity and connection to compatible peripherals. The 32SR85U can be paired with a detachable Full-HD webcam, ideal for video conferencing and interactive applications.

The latest LG MyView Smart Monitor models will be showcased at the LG booth during CES 2024 in Las Vegas from January 9th~12th. Below is a chart comparing the specs and features of the three forthcomimg models
