For those who prize portability, the Plus View is well worth the premium price. This is a stunning quality screen, better than most of the full-sized office monitors I’ve tested in recent memory. It’s exceptionally easy to use, too, and can be easily carted around in a rucksack alongside a lightweight laptop.

The 16-inch LG Gram +View IPS Portable Monitor packs a beautiful, high-resolution 16:10 panel ideal for folks with taller-screen laptops, but we wish it had a more substantial stand.

Still, those are good benchmark results for a portable display – all too often these secondary panels offer terrible image quality. Combine that with the lightweight, straightforward design and the reasonable pricing, and you’ve got a winning accessory to any laptop, as well as an ideal product for anyone who needs a second screen on the move.
The LG Gram Plus View only has one job, so it’s pretty vital that it does it well. Thankfully, this monitor performed sensationally in our in-house tests: it managed to produce 139.9% of the sRGB colour space, which equates to 99.1% of the DCI-P3 space and 96.4% of the Adobe RGB space. It’s calibrated to DCI-P3 and delivered an average Delta E of 1.99 when tested against this colour space. This is a thoroughly decent result and indicates that any inaccuracies in colour reproduction will be very difficult to spot – good news for anyone who dabbles in a bit of photo editing.
The LG Gram +View is a beautiful, bright, portable, matte display with good colour accuracy. The 2560 x 1600 resolution makes the visuals look sharp and detailed, and the 16:10 aspect ratio is good for productivity.
