The new UltraGear monitor sports a 2K resolution display with a 240Hz refresh rate; exactly like the bigger model.
LG is following up its outlandish 45-inch curved UltraGear monitor with a (slightly) more humble 27-inch flat-screen model. Despite lacking any curvature, the new display shares many of the same features as its big brother.
It’s still an OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display which translates to deeper blacks and brighter whites. Looking at the specs sheet (opens in new tab), HDR10 support is present, which allows the monitor to cover 98.5 percent of DCI-P3 (Digital Cinema Initiatives – Protocol 3) gamut and display a wide variety of colors. The resolution took a small hit as it’s now 2560×1440 (still 2K resolution) pixels with an aspect ratio of 16:9 due to the model’s smaller size. One of the biggest benefits of having the 45-inch is the added level of immersion and increased peripheral vision. 27 inches is still a decent size, but you may not catch that sneak attack coming in from your right.
