LG gram +view 17MT70 17" Silver 2025
The 17-inch 2560 x 1600 IPS panel with a 16:10 aspect ratio and 99% DCI-P3 coverage delivers sharp, color-accurate visuals in an 800g chassis. Its integrated kickstand, stereo speakers, and dual USB-C connectivity with power delivery make it a self-contained, cable-minimal secondary display. This monitor is best for business travelers and writers who need a lightweight, high-resolution screen for document editing and spreadsheet work on the go.

Resumen
The 30-Second Version
The LG gram +view 17MT70 has a gorgeous 17-inch QHD+ panel with excellent color, but the stand is flimsy and the price is steep. It's best for MacBook users who need portable screen real estate for work, not gaming. If you can find it near $395, it's worth a look.

Las pruebas
Performance
The panel is the star here. 2560 x 1600 at 16:10 gives you more vertical space than typical QHD, and 350 nits with 99% DCI-P3 means colors pop. It's not a gaming monitor at 60Hz, and our database puts its performance in the 22nd percentile overall, which is rough. But for documents, spreadsheets, and photo work on the go, it's genuinely pleasant. The 1200:1 contrast ratio keeps blacks decent for an IPS panel.

vs Competition
Against the ASUS ROG Strix XG27UCDMG or MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2, the LG gram +view isn't competing on gaming or raw speed. Those are high-refresh desktop monitors with OLED panels. The LG is a portable productivity tool. The Samsung Odyssey G60SD and Gigabyte M Series OLED MO27U2 SA also outclass it for gaming, but they're not portable. If you need a second screen that fits in a backpack and pairs with a laptop, the LG is in a different conversation entirely. Just know you're trading performance for portability.

Precio
Value & Pricing
Pricing is all over the place. US listings range from $395 to $460, so shop around. At the low end, it's a premium but justifiable price for a 17-inch QHD+ portable panel with this color accuracy. At $460, it's harder to swallow, especially when the stand feels like an afterthought. If you can snag it near $395, the display quality makes it worth considering. Just budget for a third-party stand or case.

Overview
The LG gram +view 17MT70 is a 17-inch portable monitor that pairs beautifully with laptops, especially MacBooks. It's light at 780g, packs a 2560 x 1600 IPS panel with 99% DCI-P3 color, and connects over USB-C without fuss. On paper, it's a road warrior's dream for extra screen real estate.
But the stand is a problem. The magnetic cover that doubles as a stand is flimsy and unstable, and several owners report it just doesn't hold up. The display itself is crisp and bright, but the accessory design and warranty support leave a sour taste.
Common Questions
Q: Does this work with a MacBook Air M2?
Yes, multiple owners confirm it works seamlessly with MacBook Air M2 via USB-C. The 2560 x 1600 resolution scales well with macOS.
Q: Can I use this for gaming?
Not really. It's capped at 60Hz, which is fine for casual use but not ideal for fast-paced games. Our database ranks its gaming performance in the 43rd percentile.
Q: Is the stand sturdy enough for travel?
No, the magnetic cover stand is widely criticized as unstable. Many owners recommend buying a third-party stand or case for reliable use on the go.
Who Should Skip This
Skip this if you need a stable, durable setup for frequent travel. The magnetic stand is a known weak point, and there's no proper case included. Gamers should also look elsewhere, the 60Hz refresh rate and 22nd percentile performance score make it a poor fit for anything beyond casual use. If you're on a tight budget, cheaper portable monitors with similar panels exist.
Verdict
Buy this if you're a MacBook user who wants a big, color-accurate second screen for travel or coffee shop work. The display quality is genuinely great, and the USB-C connection is painless. But if you need a stable stand, a proper case, or any gaming capability, look elsewhere. The flimsy magnetic cover and 60Hz cap are real compromises.
