I noted that in the review, however, this goes away when you mount the monitor on a swing arm. The one I am using allows you to tighten any of the moving parts of the arm, including the swivel. The swingarm is just a little springy, but the monitor is rock solid. I would suggest mounting the monitor on one. There are several designs just pick the one that works best for you.
A few notes on the KVM setup.
I have a Mac Mini at home and a Dell work laptop. The laptop is connected via USB-C with a DisplayPort icon (Upstream 1), and the Mac is connected via HDMI and a second USB-C cable (Upstream 2).
In the KVM settings:
• Upstream 1: Auto
• Upstream 2: HDMI
Switching takes 6–7 seconds, about the same time as waking up. This is slower compared to Dell monitors, where it takes only a second or two.
There’s also another unpleasant issue. After a while, when the screen timeout triggers on the computer that is not currently connected, the Asus KVM doesn’t recognize this and assumes that there’s no device on the other end. As a result, it won’t allow input switching. I have to press something on the second computer to wake it up again so that the KVM detects it. On the laptop, I can open and close the lid; on the Mac Mini, I have to press the button on the device (let’s all smile and wave at the Mac Mini M4 owners!). It’s clear that in this situation, the keyboard and mouse connected to the monitor are useless.
Fortunately, my keyboard supports Bluetooth and multiple connections, so I just switch it to the second computer, press any key, and it wakes up. Then I can use the KVM to switch the input, and I can either switch the keyboard back to the USB port with a shortcut or leave it on Bluetooth.
On the Dell KVM, this worked differently. It switched inputs in any case, and pressing a key on the keyboard would wake up the screen, just like on a regular computer with a screensaver.
At least it works, somehow.

I am glad there will be a 32” option to go with the 27” option. I can’t justify an upgrade already, but I am surprised they are staggering the release between 27” and 32”.Sone "news" on the 32" 6K, but no delivery date nor price yet

I don’t expect good pricing from LG. Better than the XDR, but LG knows it can charge a premium especially in the low-volume displays.
90 Hz or 120 Hz is not high on my priority list. I'd be perfectly happy with 60 Hz.Here you see the new Apple panel in 90hz in the "Apple Studio Display 2"... i bet
The LG UltraFine 5K often was much, much cheaper than the Apple 27" Studio Display. Not at launch, but later on. For example, it was less than US$900 last year at Amazon USA.
We don't need TB4 for 6K. TB3 is fine... which makes sense since TB3 and TB4 have the same bandwidth.
Exactly. Why even talk about TB5 if 6K XDR that uses TB3 exists since 2019? It also can use DSC and which requires only 10 gbps bandwidth.
It looks like the LG might be considerably more expensive
with Thunderbolt 5 and IPS Black, and much nicer aesthetics.Thanks for mentioning that; it put the matter in better perspective for me. With both coming out, it should lead to market segmentation, a good thing. Just as the current 5K 27" lineup from the ASUS ProArt 5K at around $800 up to the Apple Studio Display at around $1,600 (depending on options, sales, etc...), hopefully we'll see some different price points in the 32" 6K segment (where Apple has the XDR, and that thing is so expensive (plus a lot more if you want the stand!) some segmentation is almost guaranteed).It looks like the LG might be considerably more expensive
$1199 for 6K 32” is shocking. It’s much, MUCH lower than I was expecting. Hopefully that’s accurate.
It's even cheaper than Studio. That would be a killer if it's true.
So in that context, I wonder how much for the LG with IPS Black and Thunderbolt 5, and much nicer aesthetics. $1699?
What’s your prediction?
I have none! But 1199$ is *really* cheap, and there's essentially no 6k market, and absolutely no 'low end' 6k market, so they could easily charge more. The closest competitor is Dell, and theirs is 1000$ more expensive after almost a year on the market. I am guessing we're much closer to 1999$ than 1199$.
I guess around 1.8-2k or 2.5k - similar to Dell 6K, with better aesthetics. As mentioned above there's no 6k market, so they will try to set higher prices in the beginning.
