The 2022 LG UltraGear gaming monitors models 48GQ900 (OLED UHD), 32GQ950 (UHD model), and 32GQ850 (QHD) elevate gaming setups with specifications that complement graphics-intensive games across platforms. New designs feature hexagon lighting on the back of the monitor, which syncs with the dynamic sounds and visual effects in the game, adding an aesthetic appeal and a touch of personalization.
Canada now sees the arrival of LG UltraGear’s first OLED gaming monitor, the 48GQ900. A Red Dot and iF Design Award-winning product, the self-emissive, 48-inch 4K display boasts a 120Hz (O/C 138Hz) refresh rate, a 0.1ms response time, colour accuracy, and a fully borderless design. Perfect for PC and console gaming, the new model features LG’s anti-glare low reflection (AGLR) coating, which reduces visual distractions so you can focus your attention fully on gameplay. The 48GQ900 comes with a remote specially designed for enhanced gaming convenience and a stylish stand for stability.
The LG UltraGear 32GQ950 is a 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) Nano IPS 1ms gaming display, LG’s first 4K model to implement ATW Polarizer technology, which improves the panel’s ability to ensure lively, accurate colours and deep, dark blacks across a wide viewing angle. VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certified, LG’s 32-inch monitor also offers high peak brightness (1,000 nits) and 98 percent coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space, as well as easy connection to PCs and consoles with two HDMI 2.1 ports.
With the highest refresh rate of the new lineup – 240Hz, O/C 260Hz – and a 1ms response time, the 32-inch UltraGear 32GQ850 provides smooth, speedy performance. LG’s VESA AdaptiveSync Display-certified monitor has a QHD (2,560 x 1,440) Nano IPS panel with ATW Polarizer technology. It comes with VESA DisplayHDR 600 certification, covers 98 percent of DCI-P3, and has a three-sided borderless design.
