To keep its momentum for CES alive, LG unveiled their newest UltraGear OLED gaming monitors. This one is a 32-inch 4K monitor with 240Hz refresh rate. It also has what LG calls dual-HZ, and no, this doesn't mean "current refresh rate times two." It means there are two refresh rate settings that you can choose from.
The two refresh rate settings are: 4K at 240Hz and Full HD at 480Hz. Neither option seems bad. Personally, I'm good with at 1080p, so I'd be interested to see how 480Hz would look like.
LG has recommended if you're playing fast-paced stuff, stick to FHD 480Hz, while story story-rich stuff should be enjoyed at 4K 240Hz. Where does that leave The Last of Us, then? That's both story-rich and fast-paced. I guess that's up for us to figure out.
Along with returning features is a 0.03ms gray-to-gray response time, which helps cut back on motion blur and boosts clarity -- something LG's UltraGear has been boasting in their lineup.
LG is talking about 3D soundscape with Pixel Sound technology and a front-facing sound system with two woofers for DTS Virtual:X, which is a tech that simulates spatial sound. So that's very cool.
The CES 2024 Innovation Award-winning 34-inch 34GS95QE and its larger sibling, the 39-inch 39GS95QE, expand the gaming experience with their 800R-curved, 21:9 aspect ratio UltraWide Quad-HD (3,440 x 1,440) resolution OLED displays. Elevating user immersion, these panoramic monitors also feature LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection Coating, a 4-side borderless design, 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms (GtG) response time. The 800R curvature and cinematic 21:9 format of the 34GS95QE and 39GS95QE, together with LG’s OLED display tech, add a new dimension to gaming and content viewing.
The latest LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitors also incorporate the new Unity Hexagonal design rear cover, seamlessly integrating sleek aesthetics with efficient cable management. The slim ‘L’ Stand, introduced this year, offers ergonomic benefits, stability and space-efficiency. Along with tilt-, height-, pivot-, and swivel-adjustability, the stand has a smaller footprint than 2023’s V-shaped stand, helping to free up space and increase desk usability. The stylish and functional stand also provides installation flexibility and contributes to the monitors’ unapologetically futuristic look.
Along with the new 32-incher, and the 34- and 39-inch curved models, LG’s 2024 UltraGear OLED gaming monitor lineup welcomes two 45-inch monitors and a 27-inch monitor (models 45GS95QE, 45GS96QB, and 27GS95QE). These upgraded versions of the highly acclaimed 45GR95QE and 27GR95QE further enhance the UltraGear family, delivering the exceptional gaming experience that LG's premium gaming monitor brand is known for. With high refresh rates, fast response times and outstanding picture quality, these monitors meet the expectations of discerning consumers. Additionally, all three models are VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400 certified, offering high-brightness screens that produce deep blacks and enhance the depth and detail in darker game environments.
A strong performer, the 45-inch 45GS96QB takes users deeper into their favorite games; its UltraWide QHD resolution curved (800R) OLED display and built-in speakers ensuring realistic visuals and sound. Meanwhile, the 27GS95QE is a great option for smaller spaces, providing a 27-inch flat screen OLED display with all the specifications and features needed for next-level gaming.
