Superb
Outstanding image quality! And responsiveness to match. 2 displays connected to a 2017 MacBook Pro work perfectly
Particularly suitable for MAC users due to its Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C connectivity and MacOS integrations, the LG 27MD5KL-B professional monitor has a 27" IPS panel with an exceptional 5K resolution (5120 x 2880), which is 50% more raw pixels than a 4K display of the same size. The wide colour gamut covers 99% of the DCI-P3 colour space and delivers beautiful hues. On a day-to-day basis, you'll appreciate the integrated webcam/microphone set and the various ergonomic settings of this outstanding monitor.
Thanks to the Thunderbolt 3 port and three USB-C ports, this professional monitor is able to stream video, audio and 5K simultaneously from your MAC. It can also charge your computer at up to 94W for added flexibility.
Several MacOS integrations have also been made to provide a richer experience than ever before: control of brightness or volume, for example, can be done directly via the touch bar without having to use the monitor's physical buttons.

Outstanding image quality! And responsiveness to match. 2 displays connected to a 2017 MacBook Pro work perfectly
The only downside is the price, because otherwise it has all the 5K quality of the 27" Mac.
4 USB-C ports on the back to make it your fixed post and simply plug in your MacBook Pro, which charges automatically when you plug it into the display.
Nothing to say, except the price...
