A tablet, aTV, an artwork, a board game, a portable party starter – the versatile LG StanbyME 2 is all of these things and more. Words James O’Connor The LG StanbyME 2 is a portable screen to suit your lifestyle

Stunning picture and sound Wherever you're using the StanbyME 2, you’ll get a consistently clear and detailed image and amazing sound. The screen has a QHD resolution of 2560 x 1440, which is a significant upgrade from its predecessor’s FHD 1080p display, and supports both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos for HDR visuals and high-quality sound.

LG 's premium portable touchscreen, the StanbyME 2, can be whatever you want it to be in the moment! Use it to watch shows and movies, play games, keep up with work on the go, or to bring a room to life with dynamic art and high-quality sound. True portability This is a screen that can come with you anywhere. When attached to its adjustable wheeled stand, you can roll the device from room to room with ease. Detach it from the stand and you can take it wherever you go. The internal battery lets you enjoy up to four hours of content playback before needing to recharge – via its USB-C adapter. Using the included folio cover, you can confidently carry the StanbyME 2 about without needing to worry about possible scratches, and monitors, laptops, game consoles, and other devices can be connected through its USB and HDMI ports. You can also lay it flat on a table and use it to play digital board games, and the magnetic clip on remote and LG voice recognition functions make it a breeze to control. This is a device you can slot into many different parts of your lifestyle, from work and play, to chillout time.

Art in motion The LG StanbyME 2 can be used like any TV . It's Wi-Fi 5 enabled and can access streaming apps, but it's also great for creating displays, and features several motion poster designs. It can show something inspiring, something funny, or even serve as a portable window into another world on your wall. A dynamic calendar and clock combo can look excellent in a home office, or you can use it to track the weather and news. Thanks to its total portability, the StanbyME 2 can be easily moved from room to room throughout the day, keeping you informed and entertained. You can even make your own artworks using the included art apps, and then show off your handiwork on the wall.

LG's AI Sound Pro technology delivers virtual surround sound, simulating a 9.1.2 channel set up. Activate AI Clear Sound and the device can be turned into the life of the party, pumping out beats from your app of choice – you can shape the mood of a room to whatever you want it to be. The display can also detect ambient light and adjust the image to best suit the lighting conditions – very handy when you're lazing outdoors, or on the go!
