[umbilical]

what are the differences between this 3 models, looks the same:

LG Monitor 27UK850-W vs 27UL850-W vs 27UN850-W

the order is based on date

Not much.

UK = 2018 model, DisplayPort 1.2, HDR10
UL = 2019 model, DisplayPort 1.4, HDR400, USB-C
UN = 2020 model, DisplayPort 1.4, HDR400, USB-C

Just to bump this thread with some additional information and add some keywords. It appears as though either one of two things happen with the 27UN850:

1) LG renamed the 27UN850 to 27UN83A
2) The 27UN83A is just the same monitor, but sold for a different audience (business vs. consumer)

I purchased both the 27UL850 and 27UN83A from Amazon Germany last week, they are the identical monitor (even Mac OS only can identify them as "LG HDR 4K"). The specs are the same from all the websites, the control structure in the menus is the same, and there's nothing in the monitor that distinguishes one from another. I sent the 83A back, since it was €100 more with no perceived value.

The only actual different is the stand. The 27UN850's base is a bit narrower (the curve is a bit tighter), and has a different key to mate with the base. Otherwise, there is no real difference or need to get the 2020 model.

Thanks @radioactive … I was googling for them earlier this morning and making a search via the LG.com website I've obtained this comparison

Il you the PDF shows some differences regarding the usb-c power delivery and another couple of minor ones. Can you confirm (even if you've sent back the pricier one)?
Thanks

And the latest 27UP850 delivers up to 96W on USB-C while all previous only ~60W which is a huge difference if you have Intel-based MBP 16"

I'm thinking buy a new monitor, but I'm waiting for the new 14 inch macbook pro.

I'm tired to think apple will release a monitor with price for the non rich people.

Now, 27? why not 32? there's not 32UP850.

To be frank, buy whichever is cheapest (I bought the UK for sale from BestBuy for ~350CAD). Then just bought a DisplayPort to USB-C cable from Belkin.
