LG's limited-edition UltraGear OLED gaming monitor adopts the Hextech-themed design of League of Legends, incorporating icons and imagery from the game into its menu screens and on its bold, stylish exterior. Well-known symbols and motifs from the game have been applied to the back of the monitor and to the front of its stand. On each screen, gamers can enjoy options and settings menus bearing the game's logo - complete with fonts and borders that evoke the feeling of the League of Legends universe.
Beyond the new limited-edition UltraGear OLED gaming monitor, LG and Riot Games have partnered on a number of initiatives aimed at growing esports internationally.

6 Comments on LG Unveils Limited Edition 'League of Legends' UltraGear Gaming Monitor
too dark
white horizontal lines at 240hz (I've bought TWO with the same problem, have to use 180hz or lower to solve the issue)
worse picture quality than Samsung OLED, especially text and on the desktop
LG OLED TVs are not bad, but the monitor looks bad, if you own one take a look at the green fringing on the Windows explorer icon on the bottom for example (the yellow file folder)
"*Peak brightness up to 1,000 nits based on Gamer2 picture mode, HDR application and 3% APL." and it's 1440p so if any LG people would send me one for "free" I would use it and replace it with my current LG UltraGear IPS monitor.
I also own a LG CX OLED in 48inch as my main tv which I love fantastic tv :lovetpu:
For the white lines issue, one guy found that using HDMI 2.1 cable instead of DP 1.4 fixes the problem.

I bought 2, several months apart. Both didn't work with display port. Both too dark. First one had terrible bugs that I fixed with the second model with a 5 hour long firmware update (which was a real pain to install). If you try the Alienware Samsung OLED model, it is a world of difference. Brigher, works (slower refresh rate, but at least they didn't promise something that doesn't work), fringing is much reduced. 1440p with LG's tech looks bad.
Not good enough. If they have new firmware, they need a new easier way to install it. Display Port is what people want to use.
I bought the LG C2 42" even though it is too big for me, in the mean time. Will buy 4k OLED monitor next year. Preferably a 16:9 Samsung one. I was just hoping the monitor would be nice like their TVs, but their TVs are still much better OLED than their monitors.
