While there\u2019s always been much to like about LG\u2019s StanbyME portable screens, with their attractive lifestyle designs and their ability to easily switch between desktop or wheeled stand mounting options, the models available up to now have topped out at 27-inch screen sizes and QHD resolutions Those limitations have now been addressed, though, with the arrival of the new StandbyME 2 Max: A 32-inch take on the unique StanbyME design that also ups the native screen resolution to 4K UHD (3840×2160 pixels).<\/p>\n
The LG StanbyME 2 Max also supports not just high dynamic range video but the premium Dolby Vision format of HDR, which provides extra scene by scene HDR image information to help compatible displays deliver more accurate and punchy HDR pictures. The StanbyME 2 Max\u2019s Dolby collaboration also extends to the inclusion of Dolby Atmos audio, for a more immersive three-dimensional sound system. An audio feature that\u2019s backed up by LG\u2019s AI Sound Pro feature, where any incoming sound, even basic stereo, can be upmixed into a virtual 11.1.2 surround sound effect.<\/p>\n
The StanbyME 2 Max\u2019s pictures aren\u2019t just bolstered by their new size and resolution, either. The Alpha 8 AI Processor used in some of LG\u2019s OLED and LCD TVs is also present in this portable display, complete with such features as AI Picture Pro for adding depth and detail to the image to make it look more lifelike, and enhanced upscaling of sub-4K content to the screen\u2019s native 4K resolution. <\/p>\n
The StanbyME 2\u2019s practical features don\u2019t begin and end with its ability to be wheeled around from room to room on a pole-style stand or sat on a tabletop using an included one-click stand. It also, for instance, carries a built-in battery capable of delivering up to 4.5 hours of mains-free use \u2013 opening up the possibility of the display being easily used outdoors as well as indoors. Provided the weather\u2019s up to it.<\/p>\n
The screen can also be rotated through 90 degrees to support vertical as well as horizontal viewing (perfect for today\u2019s TikTok generation), while LG\u2019s built in webOS operating system provides a simple and attractive interface for accessing all of the world\u2019s most popular streaming apps. <\/p>\n
The StanbyME 2 Max can run on batteries for more than four hours, so you can use it outside as well as inside. So long as it isn’t raining.<\/p>\n

Also present are LG\u2019s Channels and Gallery+ features. The former of these provides a curated collection of hundreds of themed streamed TV channels, while the latter lets you choose from a library of more than 5,000 digitised artworks from a wide array of international galleries and artists to use as screensavers, effectively turning the StanbyME 2 Max into a painting or framed photograph when you\u2019re not using it in earnest. Despite Gallery+ being such a natural fit for the StanbyME concept, the 2 Max is actually the first StanbyME product to carry the feature. <\/p>\n
The StanbyME 2 Max\u2019s connections include both HDMI and USB options, and finally it features a touch-screen control system, so you can choose options simply by tapping on them with your finger. Or you can use apps such as Let\u2019s Draw to create your own finger-drawn masterpieces.<\/p>\n
LG has announced that it will be rolling the StanbyME 2 Max out globally in phases, with exact launch timing varying by region. It\u2019s available to pre-order on LG\u2019s US and Canadian websites already, though, priced at $1,299.99 and $1,999.99 respectively. <\/p>\n
