LG isn’t ready till CES begins to reveal its new collection of gaming monitors. The 2025 lineup is led by the UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor, which LG claims is the “world’s first 5K2K-resolution bendable OLED show.” That strikes me as extraordinarily particular, however hey, it’s all the time value bragging if you’re first, I suppose. The 45-inch monitor has an expansive decision of 5120×2160, so that you’re getting the identical vertical pixel rely as a typical 4K display screen however a a lot wider canvas to sport on.
And with a 21:9 side ratio, LG believes it gives “a extra immersive gaming expertise than normal 16:9 shows, whereas sustaining higher content material compatibility than 32:9 screens.” This format additionally makes the show an ideal match for productiveness work if you’re not immersed in gameplay.

LG’s press launch says you possibly can anticipate “sharp, lifelike pictures with the beautiful colours and distinctive distinction LG OLED merchandise are identified for.” Shared specs between each screens embody a 0.03ms (GtG) response time and assist for DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C with 90W energy supply. The 45GX950A makes use of a RGWB subpixel structure to enhance readability of textual content on the display screen and make the aforementioned productiveness work simpler in your eyes.
Together with these two screens, LG can be introducing the curved UltraGear 39GX90SA, a webOS-powered “dwelling leisure hub” with quick access to streaming companies — similar to LG’s TVs. It looks like the corporate has taken some cues from Samsung’s good screens right here. At 39 inches, this one’s a bit smaller than the opposite GX9 shows, but it surely retains the 21:9 side ratio and 800R curve. “Geared up with USB Sort-C ports, it provides handy connectivity, and incorporates LG’s ergonomic and space-saving L-shaped stand for a clutter-free desk setup,” LG mentioned in tonight’s press launch.
