Expanding the Boundaries of High-Resolution Gaming With a New
Lineup Spanning OLED, New MiniLED and Ultra-Wide Formats
SEOUL, Dec. 26, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) announced today the global launch of its new premium gaming monitor brand, UltraGear evo, set to debut at CES® 2026. Building on LG’s established leadership in 5K and 5K2K gaming displays, UltraGear evo expands the boundaries of high-resolution gaming with a portfolio of 5K-and-above monitors spanning OLED, New MiniLED and ultra-wide formats, combining ultra-high definition, speed and immersion across multiple form factors. The inaugural UltraGear evo lineup features three flagship models – 39GX950B, 27GM950B and 52G930B – united by a shared foundation of high-resolution excellence.
At the heart of this evolution is LG’s commitment to uncompromised image quality, reinforced by a newly introduced on-device AI solution. This proprietary technology powers the world’s first 5K AI Upscaling technology.* This technology achieves stunning 5K-class clarity without the burden of GPU upgrades and allows gamers to enjoy a wider range of content in high definition – transcending original resolution limits.
39-Inch 5K2K OLED Gaming Monitor With 5K AI Upscaling
The LG UltraGear evo 39-inch GX9 (39GX950B) builds on the legacy of the GX9 series as a 39-inch 5K2K OLED gaming monitor that delivers uncompromised visual quality and immersive gameplay. Building on this foundation, with the new on-device AI solution, the monitor analyzes and enhances content in real time before it reaches the panel, delivering stunning 5K-class clarity without requiring GPU upgrades. This goes beyond resolution, incorporating AI Scene Optimization and AI Sound, the monitor refines images and audio performance for a more immersive audiovisual experience.
Visual performance is enhanced by LG’s Primary RGB Tandem OLED technology, delivering improved brightness, color accuracy and panel longevity with perfect black and lifelike colors. Designed to adapt to different gaming genres, the Dual Mode feature allows seamless switching between 165Hz at 5K2K resolution and 330Hz at WFHD, supported by an ultra-fast 0.03ms (GtG) response time – enabling gamers to prioritize either visual fidelity or ultra-smooth competitive play.
The 1500R-curved 21:9 ultrawide display that retains the vertical height of a 32-inch screen while expanding horizontal immersion for both gaming and multitasking. With a pixel density of 142 PPI and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification, the monitor delivers detailed highlights and deep blacks even in the darkest scenes.
World’s First 5K New MiniLED Monitor Solving for Blooming
The LG UltraGear evo 27-inch GM9 (27GM950B) sets a new standard for 27-inch gaming monitors as the world’s first 5K New MiniLED display designed to dramatically improve blooming control. By effectively minimizing halo effects that commonly affect high-resolution MiniLED displays, the monitor delivers professional grade 5K precision with exceptional optical clarity. Featuring 2,304 local dimming zones, combined with Zero Optical Distance engineering that minimizes the gap between the panel and LED, the monitor delivers ultra-high luminance and refined contrast accuracy that preserves fine details across bright and dark scenes alike.
Like the 39-inch GX9, the 27GM950B incorporates the on-device AI solution, enabling 5K AI Upscaling, AI Scene Optimization and AI Sound to enhance image and audio in real time without GPU overhead.
For versatile gaming performance, the monitor supports Dual Mode operation, allowing users to switch between 165Hz at 5K resolution and 330Hz at QHD, paired with a fast 1ms (GtG) response time. Certified VESA DisplayHDR 1000 and delivering peak brightness of up to 1,250 nits, the display ensures vivid highlights, intense flames and sharp flashes of light are rendered with striking realism alongside deep, controlled blacks.
World’s Largest 52-Inch 5K2K 240Hz Gaming Monitor
The LG UltraGear evo 52-inch G9 (52G930B) introduces a new class of large-format gaming displays as the world’s largest 5K2K gaming monitor, offering gamers an unprecedented range of screen size options within the UltraGear evo lineup. The expansive scale is paired with a blazing-fast 240Hz refresh rate, ensuring consistent responsiveness and image fidelity.
The massive screen features the vertical viewing height of a standard 42-inch 16:9 display, stretching horizontally for an expansive 12:9 panoramic view. This form factor provides a workspace 33 percent wider than a standard UHD monitor. A 1000R curvature encloses the user’s peripheral vision for seamless immersion. Visuals are equally impactful delivering vivid color and deep contrast validated by VESA Display HDR 600.
“The new UltraGear evo marks a definitive turning point, signaling the end of compromises in gaming display performance. With innovations like industry-first 5K AI Upscaling, the lineup ensures that whether gamers prefer perfect blacks, unmatched brightness, or expansive scale, they can enjoy the same high standard of performance, clarity and immersion in high resolution,” said Lee Choong-hwoan, head of the Display Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “This reflects our excellence in delivering high-resolution technology not only to the B2C gaming market but also through precision-driven B2B solutions like medical monitors.”
The bar-raising LG UltraGear evo lineup is set to be showcased at CES 2026. Visitors can experience the evo lineup’s high-quality visuals through two zones: the “Dream Setup” inspired by the Reddit’s gaming communities and a SimCraft-powered racing simulation featuring the new 39-inch GX9.
In addition to the new evo series, sales of the UltraGear GX7 (27GX790B) will commence in global markets on the opening day of CES 2026. This 27-inch gaming monitor boasts a QHD Primary RGB Tandem OLED display, 540Hz refresh rate and Dual Mode (HD 720Hz), matching the high expectations of avid gamers.

Embracing the Spirit of “Har Ghar Appliances, Har Ghar Happiness,”
the New Lineup Combines Design, Performance and Value for Every Indian Home
Mumbai, Oct. 14, 2025 — LG Electronics India Ltd. (LGEIL) today unveiled the LG Essential Series, a new line of home appliances created from the ground level with Indian insights. As the company’s first major consumer initiative following the public listing of LGEIL, the Essential Series reflects LG Electronics’ (LG) renewed commitment to India – making innovation more accessible to millions of households while meeting their growing aspirations. Under the campaign slogan “Har Ghar Appliances, Har Ghar Happiness,” LG aims to enrich the lifestyles of Indian consumers by ensuring that more households experience the brand promise of Life’s Good first-hand.
Developed after engaging with more than 1,200 families across India representing diverse demographics and lifestyles, the series is built on two core philosophies: “Made in India” and “Made for India.” Each product is designed to meet the dreams and everyday challenges of Indian consumers offering superior performance, durability and thoughtful design, all at an accessible price.
The LG Essential Series comprises four key appliances designed for Indian households:
Double Door Refrigerator with frost-free technology and larger vegetable storage Fully Automatic Top Load Washing Machine built to withstand local conditions like dust, humidity and low water pressure Room Air Conditioner reducing energy consumption with Energy Manager+ & Diet Mode+ Convertible Oven with Indian Auto Cook menus, air fry and convection modes for healthier, versatile cooking. “The LG Essential Series marks a new chapter in our commitment to Indian consumers, following the successful market listing of LGEIL,” said Hong-ju Jeon, managing director of LG Electronics India Ltd. “Designed from the ground-up with insights from thousands of households, this series brings together premium design and everyday reliability. It addresses the real needs of Indian families with appliances built for local conditions – enhancing convenience and enriching daily life. With this launch, LG is making Life’s Good more accessible, turning aspirations into reality across India.”
Designed for India: Durable, Practical and Thoughtful
Double Door Refrigerator
Combining simplicity with premium functionality, the refrigerator offers Frost Free Technology at a reasonable price, eliminating the need for manual defrosting. Its Smart Mode automatically adjusts cooling based on seasonal changes, while a 20 percent larger (compared to previous models) vegetable storage compartment accommodates bulk grocery shopping – ideal for vegetarian households. Fully Automatic Top Loader Washing Machine:
Built for durability in diverse Indian conditions, the washer features Low Pressure Fill technology for effective washing even at low water pressures. The ProShield Motor with BMC (Bulk Moulding Compound) Cover provides enhanced protection against dust, insects and moisture, while the IPX4-certified water-resistant control panel offers reliable operation in humid conditions.

It is ideal for effectively cooling small to medium-sized spaces such as bedrooms or study rooms. Product features and specifications may vary by model. Convertible Oven:

The way we work, learn and shop is changing fast. With hybrid work becoming the norm, education going digital and the lines between online and offline experiences blurring, there’s a growing need for technology that can keep up. Businesses today need tools that are flexible, easy to use and ready to adapt to whatever the day brings.
That’s exactly why we created the LG Smart Monitor Swing (model 32U889SA) – an all-in-one display engineered for modern enterprises. It’s a versatile smart platform that works without a PC, so you can use it anywhere, anytime, to boost productivity, improve communication and create better experiences for customers, students and teams.
Let’s take a look at how it’s making a difference across different spaces.
Retail: Overcoming In-Store Communication Hurdles
In retail – particularly in fashion and beauty – it’s all about catching the customer’s eye and sharing the right information at the right time. But we know that installing large, fixed displays isn’t always easy in busy stores.
The LG Smart Monitor Swing directly addresses these issues. Its vibrant 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution display serves as a dynamic digital catalog, showcasing product details and promotions with stunning clarity. Furthermore, its movable stand overcomes installation barriers, allowing for flexible placement anywhere in-store. This enables retailers to strategically position the display to capture customer attention or instantly repurpose a space for a live commerce broadcast – maximizing both engagement and floor space.
Hospitals: A Dynamic Information Hub for Patients and Visitors
Hospitals are busy places, and keeping patients and visitors informed can be a challenge. Static posters and signs can be missed, and updating them takes time.
With the Smart Monitor Swing, you can easily share schedules, health notices or service information in real time. Place it at the front desk to welcome visitors, in waiting areas as a digital bulletin board or even use it as a central hub for teleconsultations. And because it’s mobile, you can move it wherever it’s needed most – no more being tied to one spot.
Education: Transforming Passive Viewing into Interactive Learning
A common challenge in educational settings, from kindergartens to senior classrooms, is fostering sustained student engagement and enabling meaningful real-time interaction. The Swing transforms the learning process by creating a more collaborative and effective environment.
Its adjustable, high-resolution screen provides an optimal viewing experience for remote learning and group activities. Powered by webOS, the smart monitor lets students and teachers directly interact with educational applications and whiteboard functions via its touch-sensitive screen, turning passive viewing into an active, participatory experience.
Workspaces: Redefining Collaboration and Personal Productivity
In small offices or meeting rooms, space is precious. The Smart Monitor Swing can be your team’s central hub for sharing ideas, running video calls or working on cloud-based apps.
With its 31.5-inch 4K screen, it’s perfect for sharing content with small groups. Its built-in webOS platform further enhances collaboration by allowing teams to access home office apps, including video conferencing apps2 and cloud-based applications – all without needing an external device such as a laptop or PC.
The Swing’s versatility also introduces a new way of working for professionals who value a clutter-free desk, such as fashion designers who need space for physical samples. Its unique, independent stand liberates the entire desk surface for a clean workspace. The large display, combined with versatile tilt, swivel and pivot functions, makes it easy to hold spontaneous discussions over materials, fostering a more dynamic and interactive workflow.
Sports & Entertainment: From Simple Simulators to Premium Experiences
Sports and entertainment venues often face space constraints that make it difficult to install or reposition large displays. The Swing provides a mobile and flexible solution, delivering large, high-resolution screens that can adapt to different environments. In screen golf facilities, for example, its innovative swinging design enables optimal positioning and effortless repositioning. Featuring stunning 4K resolution, the Swing delivers a more immersive player experience than the low-resolution screens found in many simulators, rendering highly detailed course graphics. Powered by webOS, it also supports seamless customization of club branding, promotional events and time-based announcements.
The versatility extends to various hospitality applications. In hotels and VIP lounges, it ensures vivid visuals for branded content, promotions and event information. When placed in business hotel rooms, the monitor allows guests to work conveniently, using webOS apps to maintain productivity without a PC.
For us, the LG Smart Monitor Swing isn’t just another screen – it’s a core enterprise solution that helps businesses work smarter, communicate better and make the most of their space. And we’re not stopping here. We’ll keep creating innovative display solutions that break free from the limits of traditional monitors, so you can keep adapting, growing and thriving.

A Future-Proof Display for Professional Video Editors and Designers, Delivering 6K
Resolution, Precise Colors and High-Speed Connectivity
SEOUL, Sep. 30, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is introducing the UltraFine evo 6K (model 32U990A), the world’s first 6K monitor with Thunderbolt 5 connectivity. Debuting under LG’s new UltraFine evo brand of premium, ultra-high-resolution monitors, the 32U990A is purpose-built for professional video editors, graphic designers and other creators working with demanding, data-intensive workflows. Combining ultra-sharp 6K resolution (6,144 x 3,456) with exceptional color accuracy and high-speed connectivity, it empowers users to work faster and smarter.
The 32U990A – the first-ever 6K display with Thunderbolt 5 support – has already earned a CES 2025 Innovation Award and the iF Design Award 2025. Building on the legacy of LG UltraFine series – a line of 5K displays optimized for Mac devices – the UltraFine evo brand raises the bar for professional-grade displays even higher, as clearly demonstrated by the superb performance and impressive capabilities of this inaugural model.
LG’s premium monitor is designed to meet the needs of creative professionals, providing flawless image fidelity and next-level text clarity. Its 32-inch 6K HiDPI display boasts a pixel density of 224 PPI, delivering sharper, cleaner text and precise visual details. Factory-calibrated for consistent color expression with macOS, the 6K UltraFine evo covers 98 percent of the DCI-P3 color space and 99.5 percent of Adobe RGB, ensuring faithful image reproduction for video and image editing as well as print production. VESA DisplayHDR 600-certified, it maintains the consistent brightness and true colors required for detailed graphics and video work. Additionally, Studio Mode* featuring three color preset options for Mac devices will be introduced.
Designed with professional users in mind, the 32U990A’s 6K resolution delivers 2.56 times more pixels than a UHD 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) monitor. When two 6K UltraFine evo monitors are set up in a dual configuration, users can achieve a massive workspace with nearly five times the screen real estate of a single UHD 4K monitor. A particular advantage for Thunderbolt based systems, this multi-monitor setup is easily facilitated via daisy-chaining, further enhancing multitasking efficiency and optimizing digital workflows.
The new monitor also serves as a professional hub with built-in KVM switching and multi-port connectivity, enabling seamless operation across Mac- and Windows-based systems. This allows creators to view mobile content in the optimal format while simultaneously working on production tasks.
Thunderbolt 5 compatibility ensures effortless integration with Mac devices while serving as a high-speed hub for SSDs, eGPUs and other peripherals. Offering up to 120Gbps unidirectional data transfer – three times faster than Thunderbolt 4 – it supports real-time 4K rendering and rapid transfer of 8K RAW video files, making the 32U990A ideal for AI-powered video editing and upscaling workflows.
Visually striking as well as powerful, the monitor’s 4-side Virtually Borderless design delivers a clean, minimalist aesthetic and immersive viewing experience. Ergonomic tilt and pivot adjustments allow for comfortable long-session editing and make it ideal for vertical-format content such as YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. Thunderbolt 5 also helps reduce cable clutter, keeping workspaces neat while enabling flexible multi-monitor configurations.
“With many video editors now managing high-volume, multi-project workflows, the need for ultra-high-resolution displays with precise color and fast connectivity has never been greater,” said YS Lee, head of the IT Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “A future-proof display of uncompromising quality, the new UltraFine evo 6K more than meets this need, helping professional creators work faster, smarter and deliver their best results.”
The UltraFine evo 6K monitor will begin its rollout in late September in South Korea and Japan, with a global launch including the U.S. and Europe to follow in October.
