LG Unveils World’s First 5K2K Bendable Gaming Monitor, Elevating Premium Gaming Experience

LG Electronics has proudly introduced what it claims to be the “world’s first”premium bendable gaming monitors, featuring an impressive 5K2K resolution that sets a new standard for display excellence.

Elevating Gaming Experiences: Introducing LG’s UltraGear Gaming Monitors

Press Release: At CES 2025, LG is poised to enhance its reputation in the premium OLED gaming monitor market with the launch of the UltraGear GX9 series. Among the highlights is the 45GX990A model, which has already garnered three CES 2025 Innovation Awards, including the coveted ‘Best of Innovation’. This recognition emphasizes LG’s dedication to providing cutting-edge technology and exceptional gaming solutions.

The UltraGear GX9 series ensures an immersive gaming experience, featuring curved displays that utilize LG’s advanced WOLED technology. These monitors deliver superior brightness, genuine blacks, vibrant colors, and an optimized curvature, creating a lifelike atmosphere that draws players into their favorite virtual worlds.

In alignment with gamer wellness, the GX9 series is certified for low blue light emissions, significantly decreasing eye strain during marathon gaming sessions. Additionally, LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection (AGLR) coating effectively reduces reflections, allowing gamers to enjoy clear visuals even in brightly lit environments.

Both the 45GX990A and 45GX950A models boast a sizable 45-inch screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio and a groundbreaking 5K2K resolution of 5,120 x 2,160, a first for OLED technology. This aspect ratio enhances the gaming experience beyond traditional 16:9 displays, while also providing better versatility than the wider 32:9 monitors. The expansive screen real estate is ideal not only for gaming but also for various productivity tasks.

Further enhancing user experience, both monitors come with LG’s second-generation Dual-Mode feature that allows for customizable aspect ratios (switchable between 21:9 and 16:9) and picture sizes (available in 39-, 34-, or 27-inch configurations). Gamers can conveniently toggle between eight different setups tailored to their preferences for various game genres, including first-person shooters (FPS), role-playing games (RPG), multiplayer online battle arenas (MOBA), and racing simulations.

The First Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor: A Game Changer

The LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor, model 45GX990A, is the first-ever bendable display with a 5K2K resolution. This 45-inch monitor can transition from a flat surface to a 900R curvature in seconds, providing unparalleled flexibility and control for gamers seeking a customized experience.

Its advanced Dual-Mode feature facilitates swift adjustments between resolution and refresh rate settings, complemented by an impressive response time of just 0.03ms (GtG), ensuring fluid gameplay and heightened engagement.

An Impressive 45-Inch 5K2K OLED Gaming Monitor

Another remarkable entry in the GX9 series is the LG UltraGear OLED Gaming Monitor (model 45GX950A). This 45-inch display showcases a curved (800R), 21:9 format featuring self-lit 5K2K resolution, providing exceptionally sharp images enriched with the stellar colors and contrast that LG OLED displays are renowned for.

The monitor’s sleek, 4-side Virtually Borderless design enhances immersion and style, while its 125 pixels per inch (PPI) ensures clarity for both gaming and productivity tasks, such as document editing or web development.

Similar to its bendable counterpart, the 45GX950A also offers Dual-Mode functionality with eight customizable configurations, supporting DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C with 90W power delivery. This ensures compatibility with the latest graphics hardware and the benefits of variable refresh rates (VRR), along with convenient device charging capabilities. Furthermore, the monitor is certified by NVIDIA G-SYNC^® and AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro, which significantly reduces screen tearing for a more seamless gaming experience.

A Versatile Smart Gaming Monitor for Comprehensive Entertainment

The new LG UltraGear 39GX90SA is engineered for both immersive gaming and streamlined content streaming. Powered by webOS, it serves as an all-in-one entertainment hub, granting users access to popular streaming services without needing a PC or external set-top box. The 39-inch, 21:9 aspect ratio curved (800R) OLED display delivers vibrant colors and deep blacks, ideal for intensive AAA gaming and HDR film watching.

Equipped with USB Type-C ports for easy connectivity, this monitor incorporates LG’s ergonomic L-shaped stand, promoting an organized and clutter-free workspace.
