Overview
Not an LCD with a backlight, this LG UltraGear uses a tandem OLED panel that LG calls its brightest OLED gaming monitor, pairing deep blacks with high peak brightness. A fully adjustable stand, RGB accent lighting and a headset jack with virtual surround complete the setup.
LG targets gamers who play in brighter rooms, with higher peak brightness and reduced brightness limiting during busy scenes. The HDR certification is listed differently in the specs, and the warranty terms do not mention burn-in.
Who it's for
PC and console gamers who want OLED speed and contrast in a room that is not fully dark get a brighter option. Buyers worried about OLED burn-in should check warranty details first, since the listing does not address it.
Pros and cons
- Extremely fast response
- Deep OLED blacks
- High peak brightness
- Wide color coverage
- Burn-in coverage not stated
- HDR certification listed inconsistently
- Heavy for its size
Performance notes
Motion clarity comes from the extremely fast OLED pixel response with a very high refresh rate, which clears fast scenes of ghosting. Tandem OLED raises peak brightness, and per-pixel lighting delivers deep blacks for HDR. Adaptive sync prevents tearing.
