LG Monitor Launches on E-Commerce Site for June; July Retail Rollout Planned

LG is selling a 27-inch QHD Ergo IPS monitor exclusively on its e-commerce site through the end of June, it said Wednesday. The $449 model 27QN880-B monitor will be available through LG-authorized retailers beginning July 1, it said. The introduction comes as some retailers remain closed due to COVID-19 pandemic and others have been hit during looting that occurred amid turmoil following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis May 25. Best Buy CEO Corie Barry said Wednesday (see 2006030030) some stores remain closed. LG representatives didn’t respond to questions on whether the e-commerce policy would apply to forthcoming CE products. The 2560x1440 monitor comes with a flexible ergonomic stand that swivels and tilts; it has a USB-C port and HDR10 support.
