LG has rolled out a new budget-friendly monitor in China, offering a practical option for anyone looking to upgrade a basic desk setup without spending much. The newly launched LG 24U411B is priced at 649 yuan (roughly $96), and despite the entry-level price tag, it manages to check several important boxes for both casual gamers and remote workers.
LG 24U411B Specifications
The monitor uses an IPS panel with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. At 23.8 inches, 1080p provides a standard pixel density that keeps text readable without requiring operating system scaling. While the resolution is typical for this size, the 144Hz refresh rate is the primary hardware feature. Compared to standard 60Hz or 75Hz office monitors, a 144Hz panel simply provides smoother cursor movements, window dragging, and web page scrolling.
For gaming, LG included a 1ms Motion Blur Reduction (MBR) setting to reduce ghosting in fast-moving images. It also supports AMD FreeSync Premium, which matches the monitor’s refresh rate to the graphics card to prevent screen tearing and reduce input lag during gameplay.
On the color front, LG says the panel covers 99% of the sRGB color space. This is adequate for general web browsing, watching videos, and basic photo editing. The monitor also accepts an HDR10 signal. Given the price point, the hardware lacks the local dimming and high brightness levels required for actual HDR performance, but the wide sRGB coverage ensures standard colors are displayed accurately.
The physical design is minimal. The 24U411B has thin bezels on the top and sides, which is useful if you plan to place two of these monitors side by side. It uses a basic, slim stand that does not take up much room on a desk. For software, it works with the LG Switch app, allowing users to adjust settings and split their screen layout using their mouse rather than the physical monitor buttons. It also includes standard Flicker Safe and Reader Mode settings to reduce blue light and screen flicker.
Connectivity is limited strictly to the basics. The back of the monitor has one HDMI 2.2 port, a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio passthrough, and a DC power input. There is no DisplayPort, USB-C video input, or built-in USB hub for peripherals.
In related news, Skyworth has recently unveiled a new 27-inch 2K gaming monitor with a 275Hz Fast IPS panel.
