LG 27-Inch StanbyME 2 with Folio Cover, Portable Touch Screen TV, Dolby Vision, HDR10, Filmmaker Mode, Built-i
What it is
A 27-inch portable touchscreen TV with a built-in battery, full swivel stand, and included folio cover—think iPad energy but desktop-sized. Built for people who want to untether their screen and take it anywhere in the home (or beyond).
What earns it a place in this cart
204 owners gave it 4.5 stars, signaling real staying power for a premium portable display category that's still niche.
A seriously versatile screen for the person who refuses to be tethered to one room.
LG's StanbyME 2 is a 27-inch touchscreen that detaches from its stand and runs on battery—a rare combination at this size.
At $799.99 (down from $899.99), you're paying for portability and screen size; a 4K monitor plus a tablet would cost more separately.
Who it is forCreative professionals who rotate between home office and living room, travelers who want more than a laptop screen, and anyone building a flexible media setup without wall-mounted rigid TV.
What to check before you buy
Screen & Resolution
That resolution is sharp enough for work and media; Dolby Vision and HDR10 mean movies and streaming look genuinely premium. The touchscreen unlocks drawing, gaming, and interactive content—not just passive viewing.
Battery & Mobility
Four hours is enough for a movie or a work session without hunting for an outlet. The included folio makes it actually portable—you're not babysitting a naked screen. Full swivel rotation on the stand means you adapt to landscape, portrait, or anywhere in between.
AI & Adaptive Picture
Means less manual tweaking; the screen learns what you're watching and optimizes on its own. Nice-to-have rather than essential, but it signals LG isn't treating this like a gimmick product.
