2024 UltraGear OLED Gaming Monitor Lineup Introduces Pixel Sound Technology,
Delivering Clear, Cinematic Audio That Brings a New Dimension to Gaming
SEOUL, Dec. 21, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to unveil its latest lineup of UltraGear OLED gaming monitors, designed to provide superior gaming experiences. The expanded lineup includes the highly anticipated 32-inch 4K gaming monitor (model 32GS95UE), which boasts a 240Hz refresh rate, an ultra-fast 0.03ms Gray-to-Gray (GtG) response time, and LG’s Dual-Hz feature and Pixel Sound technology. The company is also introducing stellar 39- and 34-inch models with ultra-wide curved screens: the 39GS95QE and the CES 2024 Innovation Award-winning 34GS95QE.
The First Dual-Hz Gaming Monitor to Offer 4K 240Hz / FHD 480Hz
The groundbreaking 32GS95UE is the first UltraGear monitor equipped with the new Dual-Hz feature, allowing users to switch between 4K (3,840 x 2,160) at 240Hz and Full-HD (1,920 x 1,080) at 480Hz with one simple click. This time-saving innovation, easily managed via a hotkey or joystick’s directional switch, lets users instantly apply the optimal combination of screen resolution and refresh rate for the genre of game they’re playing. For fast-paced action titles and shooting games, users can select FHD 480Hz, while visually rich story-driven games can be enjoyed in 4K 240Hz.
In addition to the Dual-Hz feature, the 32-inch UltraGear OLED possesses an impressive 0.03ms (GtG) response time that helps eliminate motion blur, boost clarity and deliver dynamic gameplay. This, combined with the exceptional color and contrast that LG’s self-lit OLED technology is known for, takes the visual experience to a whole new level.
The 32GS95UE further enhances the user experience with its minimal screen bezels and powerful, nuanced sound. LG’s 4-side virtually borderless design provides a stunning display that doesn’t distract from the on-screen action. The monitor creates an exhilarating, three-dimensional soundscape with Pixel Sound technology and an integrated front-facing sound system featuring two woofers and support for DTS Virtual:X. The speakers are cleverly hidden behind the OLED panel itself, eliminating the need for external speakers and saving valuable desk space.
Elevating Gaming Immersion Through Innovative Design
The CES 2024 Innovation Award-winning 34-inch 34GS95QE and its larger sibling, the 39-inch 39GS95QE, expand the gaming experience with their 800R-curved, 21:9 aspect ratio UltraWide Quad-HD (3,440 x 1,440) resolution OLED displays. Elevating user immersion, these panoramic monitors also feature LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection Coating, a 4-side borderless design, 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms (GtG) response time. The 800R curvature and cinematic 21:9 format of the 34GS95QE and 39GS95QE, together with LG’s OLED display tech, add a new dimension to gaming and content viewing.
The latest LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitors also incorporate the new Unity Hexagonal design rear cover, seamlessly integrating sleek aesthetics with efficient cable management. The slim ‘L’ Stand, introduced this year, offers ergonomic benefits, stability and space-efficiency. Along with tilt-, height-, pivot-, and swivel-adjustability, the stand has a smaller footprint than 2023’s V-shaped stand, helping to free up space and increase desk usability. The stylish and functional stand also provides installation flexibility and contributes to the monitors’ unapologetically futuristic look.
More Models to Meet Gamers’ Diverse Demands
Along with the new 32-incher, and the 34- and 39-inch curved models, LG’s 2024 UltraGear OLED gaming monitor lineup welcomes two 45-inch monitors and a 27-inch monitor (models 45GS95QE, 45GS96QB and 27GS95QE). These upgraded versions of the highly acclaimed 45GR95QE and 27GR95QE further enhance the UltraGear family, delivering the exceptional gaming experience that LG’s premium gaming monitor brand is known for. With high refresh rates, fast response times and outstanding picture quality, these monitors meet the expectations of discerning consumers. Additionally, all three models are VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certified, offering high-brightness screens that produce deep blacks and enhance the depth and detail in darker game environments.
A strong performer, the 45-inch 45GS96QB takes users deeper into their favorite games; its UltraWide QHD resolution curved (800R) OLED display and built-in speakers ensuring realistic visuals and sound. Meanwhile, the 27GS95QE is a great option for smaller spaces, providing a 27-inch flat screen OLED display with all the specifications and features needed for next-level gaming.

Converging Technological Excellence and Artistic Brilliance,
LG SIGNATURE OLED M Showcased at Special Exhibition Zone
SEOUL, June 22, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) is bridging the worlds of art and technology with its ultra-premium brand, LG SIGNATURE, by sponsoring a remarkable ballet performance of ‘Swan Lake,’ choreographed by the esteemed French ballet master Angelin Preljocaj, at the LG Arts Center SEOUL in South Korea from June 22 to 25. This sponsorship signifies the second occasion where LG SIGNATURE has supported performances at this venue, following its patronage of ‘He Who Falls’ by Yoann Bourgeois in November 2022.
A renowned master of modern ballet, Angelin Preljocaj is considered one of the most important contemporary choreographers since the 20th century. After a gap of 4 years since Ballet Preljocaj toured Korea with ‘La Fresque,’ he makes his long-awaited return to Korea. Inspired by the creative vision and imagination that Marius Petipa instilled in ‘Swan Lake,’ Angelin Preljocaj intertwines his own inventive genius to give birth to yet another extraordinary work. One of the highlights of the performance is the captivating group dance sequences, where 25 ensemble dancers gracefully portray the image of wild swans gliding across a lake.
In addition to the captivating performance of ‘Swan Lake,’ attendees at LG Arts Center SEOUL will have the privilege of immersing themselves in the LG SIGNATURE exhibition zone, strategically located at the entrance of the LG SIGNATURE Hall. Carefully curated to align with the enchanting concept of ‘Swan Lake,’ these spaces offer a distinctive experience that extends the emotional impact of the performance beyond the confines of the theater.
Creating a backdrop reminiscent of a dark lake, the exhibition zone showcases the LG SIGNATURE OLED M (model M3), the world’s first and largest OLED TV. This remarkable display evokes visions of swans elegantly gliding across the water’s surface through the use of its wireless solution. Adding to the captivating TV, a separate Zero Connect Box, responsible for wirelessly transmitting video and audio signals to LG’s cinematic screen, located beside the screen on a swan sculpture adds an artistic touch to the exhibition. In the OLED M special exhibition zone, the wall panels extending on both sides showcase the journey of innovation in LG OLED TVs over the past 10 years. It also introduces the brand philosophy of LG SIGNATURE, which upholds the “Art of Essence,” and the brand theme “LIVE BEYOND,” emphasizing the experience of life becoming art.
LG SIGNATURE OLED M is set to make its official debut in the second half of the year. Educating and showcasing the premium value of LG SIGNATURE to customers visiting LG Arts Center SEOUL, LG’s dedicated exhibition and photo zones – open to the public until July 22 – aim to provide a comprehensive and immersive experience that highlights the unique features and exceptional quality of LG SIGNATURE products.
Continuously promoting its cultural and artistic endeavors as a way to communicate its blend of artistic values and innovative technology, LG SIGNATURE is the official partner of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in the United Kingdom, the American Ballet Theatre in the United States and La Scala opera house in Italy.
“We take great pride in the fact that LG Electronics has once again signed a title sponsorship this year, further solidifying our commitment to the arts and culture scene,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG Electronics’ Global Marketing Center. “With the LG SIGNATURE OLED M Exhibition zone, we have created a convergence of technological excellence and artistic brilliance aiming to provide audiences with an immersive firsthand experience of the exceptional LG SIGNATURE OLED M, meticulously crafted with our finest technology.”
