LG is launching the UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor, which LG claims is the “world’s first 5K2K-resolution bendable OLED display.”
This 45-inch monitor boasts a resolution of 5120×2160, offering the same vertical pixel count as a typical 4K screen but with a much wider canvas, perfect for gaming.
The UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor – model 45GX990A transitions from a flat to a 900R curved display.
It features LG’s Dual-Mode, allowing users to switch between resolution and refresh rate effortlessly presets, and customize the aspect ratio and picture size.
It’s certified for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, although the maximum refresh rate remains unspecified.
LG is also releasing a non-bendable model with a permanent 800R curve, sharing the same 45-inch size, aspect ratio, and 5K2K resolution.
Both monitors promise sharp, lifelike images with stunning colors and exceptional contrast, hallmark features of LG OLED products.
Specs include a 0.03ms (GtG) response time, support for DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C with 90W power delivery.
The 45GX950A model uses an RGWB subpixel layout to enhance text readability, making it ideal for productivity tasks.
Additionally, LG is introducing the curved UltraGear 39GX90SA, a webOS-powered “home entertainment hub” with easy access to streaming services. This 39-inch model retains the 21:9 aspect ratio and 800R curve, featuring USB Type-C ports and an ergonomic L-shaped stand for a clutter-free desk setup.
As with most CES announcements, we’ll have to wait until later in 2025 for detailed pricing and specific release dates. We look forward to getting the first impressions of the UltraGear GX9 series from Las Vegas early next month, along with checking out numerous other impressive screens from various companies.
