Save $50 and upgrade to 4K with LG's 32-inch monitor on sale today

The LG 32UN500-W 4K monitor is on sale at Amazon for just $296.99. That's a $50 drop off its normal price and matches what we saw it going for during Black Friday. It has hit this price a couple of times over the last few months, and it has sold out completely every time. If it's still in stock, just know that you're running out of time. You can also find it going for a similar price over at Best Buy where it is $299.99.

Sometimes, the only thing you need is pixels. Lots and lots of pixels. All the pixels. Well, here you go. This 32-inch screen is jam-packed with 3840 x 2160 pixels. That's 4K resolution on a 32-inch screen. The only problem with 4K in general is that other specifications tend to suffer a bit because bumping all of them would cost too much. So while you do have a 4K resolution, you only have a 60Hz refresh rate and a 4ms response time. Neither of which is bad, just standard. If you're looking for a great video gaming monitor, you probably want something with a 144Hz refresh rate or higher and a 1ms response time or lower.

So this won't be your new gaming screen, but it will still look amazing, especially considering the cost. That would mean this is a great monitor for consuming media. If you want to watch movies or stream your favorite content creators, you might as well do it in 4K. It also has HDR10 support so you get the highest image quality possible through HDR content as well.

Other features include AMD FreeSync to help reduce screen tearing when paired with an AMD graphics card, built-in speakers with stereo sound and 5W power output, and a virtually borderless design which helps with immersion.
