LG 31-inch Cinema 4K monitor

- $1400 (about £876) lg.com

What is it? ‘Another 4K monitor!?’ we hear you cry. Just hear us out with this one before you start huffing and puffing; this is a bit different.

Instead of being the UHD-spec 3840x2180 kind of 4K, this is 4096x2180 Cinema 4K. Several 4K cameras use this format, so if you want to view this footage properly (or just want a slightlywi­der-than-normal, 17:9 display), this is the monitor for you. When’s it due? Out now. Why are we excited? A good home option for 4K film fanatics using this format is very welcome, of course. Naturally you’d be wise to read our iMac with Retina 5K display review on page 84 before getting too excited…
