The LG 32U850SA-W is a 32-inch 4K UHD IPS monitor with LG's webOS built in, 90W USB-C power delivery and a Full HD webcam, priced at KSh 79,000 and in stock at Mascom International. Every unit is brand new and sealed. The panel shows 3840 x 2160 pixels, covers 95% of the DCI-P3 colour range and supports HDR10. Three USB-C ports and two HDMI inputs handle laptops, consoles and streaming sticks. The LG 32U850SA-W sits on a stand that tilts, rises and pivots to portrait. You can see it running at our store in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for lawyers, accountants, consultants and university students who share one desk between work and evening viewing, the LG 32U850SA-W removes the need for a separate TV. Plug a laptop into USB-C and a single cable carries picture, data and up to 90W of charging, which keeps most business laptops topped up. When the laptop goes back into its bag, webOS opens streaming apps on its own, with the Slim Remote in hand. A Strathmore student in a Madaraka bedsitter or an advocate working late in Upper Hill gets a desk screen and a home cinema from one purchase.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell monitors that go dark without a computer attached, Mascom International stocks the LG 32U850SA-W for buyers who want the screen useful on its own. Customers across Nairobi tell us the built-in webcam is the detail that wins them over, since it ends the hunt for a separate USB camera before Zoom calls. iPhone and Mac owners can also mirror content through AirPlay. Visit Kimathi Street to try the remote and the stand, or order by WhatsApp and pay when the LG 32U850SA-W reaches you, anywhere in Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the LG 32U850SA-W
How much is the LG 32U850SA-W in Kenya?
The LG 32U850SA-W costs KSh 79,000 brand new at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. That price includes the 24-month warranty, the Slim Remote, an HDMI cable and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. It matches the price of the LG 32SR85U-W, the other 32-inch 4K webOS monitor in our range, and costs KSh 8,000 more than the 27-inch LG 27UP850K-W. You can settle by M-Pesa, card or cash at the counter.
Is the LG 32U850SA-W better than the LG 27UP850K-W for working from home?
The LG 32U850SA-W suits home workers who also want streaming and video calls, while the LG 27UP850K-W suits those who only need a computer screen. Both show 4K, but the LG 32U850SA-W adds a larger 32-inch panel, built-in webOS apps, a remote, a Full HD webcam and three USB-C ports. The LG 27UP850K-W costs KSh 71,000 and relies on a connected computer for everything. If your desk is shallow or you never watch shows at it, the 27-inch saves KSh 8,000.
Can the LG 32U850SA-W keep working during KPLC power cuts?
The LG 32U850SA-W runs on mains power, so it switches off during a KPLC outage like any monitor. Many Nairobi home offices pair it with a UPS, which buys time to save work and end a call cleanly. Mascom International stocks UPS units sized for a monitor and laptop. A laptop connected over USB-C keeps its own battery charge, so you lose only the big screen, not your session. Streaming apps resume once your Safaricom Home Fibre or Zuku connection returns.
Does the LG 32U850SA-W stream Netflix and YouTube without a computer?
Yes, the LG 32U850SA-W runs LG's webOS, so streaming services such as Netflix and YouTube open directly on the monitor with no computer attached. You browse with the included Slim Remote, much like a TV. LG notes that app content needs an internet connection and the relevant subscriptions, so your Netflix plan still applies. Cloud gaming services also run through webOS, letting you play on a controller without a console, provided your home internet is fast and stable.
Is the LG 32U850SA-W webcam good enough for Zoom and Teams calls?
The LG 32U850SA-W carries a Full HD webcam with dual microphones and a privacy cover, which handles everyday Zoom, Teams and Google Meet calls. Full HD means 1080p video, clearer than the 720p cameras common on older business laptops. The dual mics pick up your voice from a normal seating distance. The privacy cover slides over the lens when you are not on a call. This suits consultants in Westlands and Kilimani who keep the laptop lid shut on a stand.
Can I charge my laptop through the LG 32U850SA-W?
Yes, the LG 32U850SA-W delivers up to 90W of power over USB-C, enough for most 14-inch and 15-inch business laptops. One cable then carries charging, display and data at the same time. The monitor has three USB-C ports in total: one upstream link to the computer and two downstream ports for accessories. Confirm that your laptop supports display output over USB-C first; our staff can test it with you at the Kimathi Street counter.
Who should buy the LG 32U850SA-W, and who should skip it?
The LG 32U850SA-W suits home workers, students and small offices that want one screen for work, calls and streaming. Skip it if you play fast competitive games, since the panel refreshes at 60Hz; the LG 49U950A-W runs at 144Hz for that use. Skip it too if you only need a plain second screen for a desktop tower, where the LG 27UP850K-W costs less. Spreadsheet-heavy buyers who want a wider view may prefer the curved LG 34U640B-B at KSh 71,000.
Is the LG 32U850SA-W good for photo editing and design work?
The LG 32U850SA-W covers about 95% of the DCI-P3 colour range, which handles photo editing, social media design and video review for most freelancers. DCI-P3 is the colour standard used for film and modern phone screens, wider than basic sRGB. The 4K resolution shows fine detail at 100% zoom, and HDR10 support lets you preview HDR video. The pivot stand rotates to portrait, so content creators in Nairobi and Kisumu see Instagram and TikTok layouts in the shape they will post.
Technical Specifications
Display Panel
- 32-inch IPS panel — IPS keeps colours steady when viewed from the side, so two people can share the screen comfortably.
- 3840 x 2160 4K UHD resolution — four times the pixels of Full HD, keeping text sharp across two documents side by side.
- 60Hz refresh rate — the screen redraws 60 times a second, smooth enough for office work, streaming and casual games.
- 5ms grey-to-grey response time in Faster mode — limits blur when scrolling long web pages or following football on screen.
- 16:9 widescreen shape — the same ratio as TV broadcasts and YouTube, so most video fills the screen without black bars.
Processor and Picture
- HDR10 support — plays high dynamic range video with brighter highlights and deeper shadows on supported streaming titles.
- 95% DCI-P3 colour coverage (typical) — reproduces the wide colour range used in cinema and modern phone displays.
- 400 nits typical brightness — bright enough for a sunlit room or a desk facing a window on a clear afternoon.
- 1000:1 typical contrast ratio — the gap between the darkest black and the brightest white, standard for IPS screens.
- About 140 pixels per inch across the 31.5-inch viewable area — small text and spreadsheet cells look crisp at desk distance.
Audio and Video Calling
- Two 5W stereo speakers — 10W combined, loud enough for YouTube, online lectures and calls in a bedroom or small office.
- Full HD 1080p webcam — sharper video calls than the 720p cameras still found on many older business laptops.
- Dual built-in microphones — pick up your voice at a normal seating distance for Zoom, Teams and Google Meet.
- Physical privacy cover over the camera — closes the lens fully whenever you are not on a call.
- Speakers serve webOS apps too — streaming audio plays with no computer or external speaker connected to the monitor.
Smart Platform
- LG webOS built in — opens streaming apps and cloud gaming services directly, with no computer or TV box needed.
- Slim Remote included — browse apps and switch content from the sofa or bed, as you would with a television.
- Apple AirPlay and HomeKit support — mirror an iPhone, iPad or Mac screen wirelessly when running current Apple software.
- Screen Share for Android phones and Windows 10 or later PCs — cast a phone video or a slide deck without cables.
- Remote PC for Windows 10 Pro or later — reach an office computer through the monitor; keyboard and mouse sold separately.
Connectivity
- Three USB-C ports — one upstream connection to your computer plus two downstream ports for drives, keyboards and other accessories.
- Up to 90W USB-C Power Delivery — charges a business laptop while carrying its picture and data over the same cable.
- Two HDMI inputs — connect a PlayStation 5, an Xbox, a TV decoder or a second laptop alongside the USB-C computer.
- USB-C data transfer — files move between the laptop and drives plugged into the monitor's downstream ports.
- Internet connection for webOS — streaming and cloud gaming need home internet plus the relevant service subscriptions.
Build
- Height-adjustable stand — raise the screen to eye level and cut neck strain over long working days.
- Tilt adjustment — angle the panel back or forward to reduce reflections from overhead office lights.
- Bi-directional pivot — rotate to portrait either way for long contracts, code reviews or social media posts.
- VESA 100 x 100mm mounting — fits standard wall brackets and monitor arms for a cleaner desk.
- White finish — suits light home-office furniture and keeps the screen from dominating a bedroom or living room.
Package Contents
The LG 32U850SA-W arrives sealed in LG's retail box with the monitor, its adjustable stand, the power supply, the Slim Remote and an HDMI cable. LG includes a USB-C cable only in some markets, so plan on a USB-C cable rated for 90W if you want single-cable laptop charging; Mascom International sells compatible cables separately. Check the seal with our staff at collection, and keep the box for any warranty claim.
Warranty
Mascom International backs the LG 32U850SA-W with a 24-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. Cover applies to faults in the panel, webcam, ports and electronics that arise under normal use. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk in the Old Mutual Building; bring the monitor and your receipt.
