There’s no denying that LG knows how to make a gorgeous screen. Whether iit’s a monitor or a television, you know you’re in for a visual treat if LG is on the label. LG is especially innovative in the monitor space, where it is diving headfirst into the specific needs of gamers with its UltraGear GX9 series. The single most exciting part of the new lineup is the LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor. Yes, a bendable monitor!
The 45″ LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor can go from flat to a 900R curvature in seconds. If you don’t speak curved monitor fluently, a 900R curvature means if the monitor were to form a circle, the radius would be 900 millimeters or 90 centimeters.
If that gave you flashbacks to geometry, relax. It means a tighter curve, which is great for close-up work (like gaming) and is closest to our natural eyeline’s field of view, making it super comfortable to view easily. You can further dial in the experience to your tastes by adjusting the resolution and refresh rate presets, plus you can customize the aspect ratio and picture sizing.
Most amazing of all? The resolution of this behemoth is an OLED 5K2K resolution. That’s 5120 pixels by 2160 pixels, meaning everything about the LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor, from the adjustable curve to the highest resolution possible, will maximize the visual experience and get you as immersed as possible!
Don’t worry, there are more monitors on offer than just the LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor. If you prefer your monitor to have a permanent curve (no judgment here), there’s also the LG UltraGear OLED Gaming Monitor. It sports an 800R curve, a 45″ OLED 5K2K panel, and a 4-sided “Virtually Borderless” design to really get you engaged.
Like the bendable UltraGear, it also has Dual-Mode functionality with up to 8 customizable configurations and a slew of ports, including DisplayPort, USB-C, and HDMI 2.1. It’s also been certified by NVIDIA and AMD FreeSync to produce a smoother gaming experience.
Rounding out the UltraGear family is the LG UltraGear monitor, which sports an 800R curve and 39″ screen. But what’s really exciting is what’s under the screen. It comes with WebOS built-in, so it’s not just a monitor but a whole entertainment hub! Stream movies and even do some gaming without needing to connect anything else.
I’m eager to see how people’s experiences with this. I expect that such a large bendable screen will cost quit a bit, but it should be more durable than foldable phones since it won’t be folded to 180 degrees.
