The display is a 27-inch LED touchscreen with the standard 60Hz refresh rate and 1920x1080 resolution. What's nice is you can tilt the screen, adjust its height, or rotate it clockwise for a portrait view. LG also confirmed that it'll support Dolby Vision and HDR10. As for the speakers, you'll get a 20W speaker that can output 4.0-channel audio. It also supports virtual 5.1.2-channel audio and Dolby Atmos.
