LG changed the game back in 2023 with the launch of StanbyMe : a rotatable , battery - power blind that works like an oversized tab . Now , two years after , LG unveiled the late version of its viral screen atCES , with the aptly discover StanbyMe 2 .
LG ’s StanbyMe seriously aim TikTok by violent storm last year as a utilitarian resolution for smaller apartment that do n’t have the distance for a standalone TV , and for users to keep connected while moving around their home . So what ’s fresh with this yr ’s update ?
Perhaps most notably , theStanbyMe 2now boasts a better 1440p resolution instead of the 1080p ceiling of its predecessor , all while retaining the same - sized 27 - column inch presentation .
There are also new accessories that can be mate with the StanbyMe 2 , including the almost unbelievable folio case which humorously makes the 27 - in screen look more like an tremendous tablet rather than a TV .
Another questionable accessory is the strap which allows the screen to pay heed on the rampart like a workplace of graphics , or be bear over the articulatio humeri – for what reason we can not fathom .
Both generations of the StanbyMe , plus thebriefcase - sized Go version , are battery mesh so you do n’t have to faff around with bothersome wires when move between rooms . However , the newfangled StanbyMe 2 sports an improved shelling life of up to four hour and boasts an additional USB - vitamin C embrasure too .
Finally , although the StanbyMe 2 use a touchscreen , it also comes equipped with a removed controller that magnetically attaches to the top of the display to forbid getting mislay .
Although we do n’t have discussion yet on the precise pricing , considering the original StanbyMe has an RRP of £ 1199/$999 , we ’d expect the StanbyMe 2 to retail at a similar pricepoint , if a bit more expensive .
Is the StanbyMe 2 deserving the orgy ? believably not . Is it a novel way to watch contentedness on the move ? dead .
