LG Announces Pricing and Availability of its 2024 UltraGear OLED Monitor Lineup
LG Electronics (LG) announced today pricing and availability of its 2024 UltraGear OLED gaming monitors, designed to provide superior gaming experiences. The lineup is led by the 45GS95QE-B—an immersive 45-inch curved LG OLED monitor with a 21:9 aspect ratio. The expanded lineup includes the highly anticipated CES 2024 Innovation Award-winning 32-inch 4K gaming monitor (model 32GS95UE) equipped with the new Dual Mode feature which allows gamers to switch between 4K (3,840 x 2,160) at 240 Hz and Full-HD (1,920 x 1,080) at 480 Hz with one simple click.
The company is also introducing its 39- and 34-inch models with ultra-wide curved screens: the 39GS95QE and 34GS95QE. All four models are now available for pre-order thru March 17, 2024 at LG.com (shipping expected in late March and throughout April) and available later at LG-authorized retailers. Customers who place a pre-order for the 45GS95QE-B, 39GS95QE or 34GS95QE UltraGear OLED gaming monitors via LG.com are eligible to receive a $200 Virtual Mastercard prepaid card. Terms and conditions apply.
The First Dual Mode UltraGear Monitor to Offer 4K at 240 Hz / FHD at 480 Hz
The groundbreaking 32GS95UE is the World's First VESA Certified Dual Mode gaming monitor. This newly introduced capability 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 at 480 Hz, while visually rich story-driven games can be enjoyed in 4K at 240 Hz.
In addition to the Dual Mode feature, the 32-inch LG UltraGear OLED monitor possesses an impressive 0.03 ms (GtG) response time that helps eliminate motion blur, boost clarity and deliver dynamic gameplay. 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.
A Step Up With Pixel Sound
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. With Pixel Sound, the screen is essentially the sound. Sound waves are emitted from behind the OLED panel to drive sound from the screen directly at the player - versus speakers from underneath or behind the screen. The result is full, rich audio that's the perfect complement to LG's premium OLED picture quality.
Elevating Gaming Immersion Through Innovative Design
The 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, 240 Hz refresh rate and 0.03 ms (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- 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.
Along with the new 34- and 39-inch curved models, LG's 2024 UltraGear OLED gaming monitor lineup welcomes the 45GS95QE. Meeting gamer's demands for increased screen space, this 45-inch monitor with a 21:9 aspect ratio provides more screen area than a 49-inch screen at a 32:9 aspect ratio. The result is more screen that delivers a bigger and more captivating gaming experience.
The 45-inch 45GS95QE takes users deeper into their favorite games with its UltraWide QHD resolution curved (800R) OLED display delivering realistic visuals. Officially validated by NVIDIA as G-SYNC Compatible and having built-in AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, the 45GS95QE ensures faster, smoother gaming that's been tested to reduce screen tearing and stutter.
Gamers can also enjoy smoother, vivid colors and high-resolution graphics thanks to HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4. Both connections are supported on this display and let you experience up to 240 Hz refresh rate and a 0.03 ms response time.
The company is also introducing its 39- and 34-inch models with ultra-wide curved screens: the 39GS95QE and 34GS95QE.

Just different. And some are the new MLA panels offering improved brightness and the new WRGB pixels vs older WBGR. (The order is easier for windows to recognize)
Best regards ✅
I am disappointed with such big monitors and low resolution in this day and age.
3440x1440 has been here forever and it's really time to move on and bring something mroe exciting.
Good features:
- 5K/2K 120 Hz panel, great size
- TUV eye comfort certificate
- DCI-P3 99%
- iMST display partition feature
- lots of ports and KVM
However, there are immediate red flags at this premium price point of $1,900:
- no REC.2020 colour space
- low VESA DisplayHDR600
- no FALD, just edge light dimming
- no native 10-bit panel
- forced to use DSC, both on HDMI 2.1 and old DP 1.4 ports
- no Dolby Vision or HDR10+ (no support for HDR dynamic metadata)
- no FreeSync Premium Pro (low due to HDR)
Premium price for a display without premium features?
Just no! This is nonsense. Maximum $900.
It's for office use for professionals who need a lot of real estate and connectivity.
Dell is going to be milking financial, insurance and accountant companies with this monitor.
The point is that the monitor with premium price does not have premium features, as listed above.
It's heavily overpriced and undercooked.
Subpixel layout should be green for QD. Reviewers mentioned the color fringing is gone with the 3rd gen. It can be used for productivity work on PC. I'd rather have glossy coating even if it does reflect more. Screen clarity is more important. I don't think many would choose matte coated screen.
Here is a better comparison.
www.rtings.com/tv/learn/qd-oled-vs-woled
"Although the first generation QD-OLED used in the Samsung S95B OLED developed permanent image retention very quickly, the newer Samsung S95C OLED appears far more resilient. After eight months, the S95C shows almost no sign of image retention, whereas the latest, greatest WOLED panel used in the LG G3 OLED already shows severe image retention. So it's clear that the newer S95C OLED is more resilient than both 1st generation QD-OLED and the latest WOLED panels"I hope you can see that's just a marketing label on the TV market share thing you posted. Just a quick look tells you that's an overall market not premium only. What are these "others" that are premium? TCL and Hisense are complete low-end brands. Sony and Samsung are high-end. LG is in the middle. Yes, it's a budget brand. Remember their failed cellphones? I had 2 of them when I couldn't afford Samsung or Apple.
I'm still using 2 LG monitors which I've been happy with but when they price themselves next to Samsung and in this case higher, that's just a complete joke. Their LG C series is priced around the same price as Samsung S90C which even beats their way more expensive G series TVs. Go on review sites that don't get their products for free like rtings and do some comparisons.
While I own and prefer QD, the LG offerings are also viable and competition is great for all of us.

Sony is barely hanging on in the TV segment and have been insignificant in features and market share for a while now. They lose blind shootouts even while trying to sell at marked up premium prices.
It will take some time until premium monitors mature a bit.
And no info on max refresh rate on max resolution.
