What is the difference to the 27MD5KL-B? According to the description, the 27MD5KLP offers a power supply of 94W compared to 85W and has energy efficiency class F instead of G. In addition, it is currently CHF 20 cheaper. Are there any other differences and which monitor is newer? On lg.com there seems to be only the 27MD5KLP-B, but with 94W power supply and energy efficiency class F... that is quite confusing.

This is the newer model, which offers better energy efficiency. All other specifications are the same, including Power Delivery support for up to 94 W on both models.

The monitor has only one Thunderbolt video input. How can you handle it if you want to use it alternately with both a Windows PC and a Mac? Reconnecting the cable each time would be very inconvenient, and I am not aware of any KVM switches with Thunderbolt input/output. How do the camera and speakers work on the Mac and PC? Is the Thunderbolt cable enough for that, or do you have to do something special?

With the current state of technology, a combination of a docking station and a Thunderbolt KVM switch would be necessary. Alternatively, you can also use an adapter like this. Delock USB 10 Gbps USB Type-C Switch 2 to 1 bidirectional 8K (USB C) The Thunderbolt connection is sufficient for the camera and the speakers.
