LG Unveils UltraFine 40WT95UF 40-inch Monitor with Thunderbolt 5

LG Electronics (LG) is strengthening its B2B market presence with the introduction of the LG UltraFine 40WT95UF, a premium monitor designed to meet the needs of data-intensive industries such as finance and IT. Engineered to boost productivity, the new UltraFine is the world's first 5K2K (5,120 x 2,160) monitor to support Thunderbolt 5. It features a 40-inch screen with a high refresh rate, along with a variety of convenient multitasking and connectivity options. Available to enterprise customers worldwide, the 40WT95UF underscores LG's commitment to delivering premium, scalable display solutions for global business needs.

Professionals in finance and IT often struggle with the limitations of standard-format displays when handling large volumes of data or juggling multiple applications. The LG UltraFine 40WT95UF addresses these challenges with its large 40-inch screen and 21:9 aspect ratio, offering a generous digital workspace. The monitor's expansive display, combined with its ultra-high resolution and array of helpful screen organization features, provides the visual precision and flexibility to help users work more efficiently and effectively.
The 40WT95UF offers Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture functionality, giving users the multitasking benefits of a dual-monitor setup without taking up as much desk space. Financial analysts can simultaneously view extensive datasets, application dashboards and market charts, while IT specialists - whether in software development, systems integration or media services - can utilize the extended screen space and advanced capabilities to review long lines of code, manage complex design timelines and conduct in-depth content analysis.

Equipped with LG's IPS Black technology, the 5K2K display supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and AMD FreeSync Premium, delivering exceptional clarity, contrast, color accuracy and smooth motion. These advanced features make the 40WT95UF an ideal choice for real-time financial analysis, as well as for high-precision visual work such as coding, graphic design and content creation.

Notably, as the world's first Thunderbolt 5 5K2K monitor, it enables fast data transfer speeds of up to 80 Gbps, easy connection to high-performance peripherals and laptop charging - all through a single cable, without the need for a separate power adapter. For seamless device integration, the new monitor also comes equipped with an extensive selection of ports, including USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, DisplayPort 2.1 and RJ45, collectively providing an experience akin to having a built-in USB hub. In addition, the support for daisy-chaining helps reduce cable clutter, resulting in a cleaner and more organized workspace.
"LG is committed to developing advanced displays and integrated IT solutions that meet the evolving needs of enterprise customers," said YS Lee, head of IT Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. "We will continue to offer industry-leading monitors tailored to each sector's unique requirements, as well as a diverse range of IT products designed to help boost productivity across industries."

did a quick search and another german site reports in an update to LG's press release:
UPDATE 04.06.2025 10:05 AM
Around 25 minutes after the news was published, LG's German press office got in touch and announced that the UltraFine 40WT95UF is expected to be available in the fourth quarter of this year at a retail price of 1,499 euros.
I got lucky awhile back and got 2x HP z32k G3 screens as new for cheap on ebay, and i can only say that IPS Black is truly awesome. Mine are first gen 60Hz only though, would love 120Hz

Well, IPS black does not fix the glare when viewing from an angle that much, but still, it's the closest thing you get to oled with IPS, and still after a year of use, i still find myself in awe of the colors and that deep black.

Finally an LG version of the panel they've been letting Dell sell exclusively for more than a year, not paying the Dell tax sure would have been nice.

The updated ports sure are great too! Well done LG.

The roadmap shows 240Hz version of 39 inch WOLED panel. This press release tells us about IPS 120Hz.

LG, you are insulting professionals with such vague press release. You do not provide any details that are really important for us professionals. If you target professionals, you should show some respect to their tech knowledge and needs.

Essential questions that would make or break this very monitor:

1. Is the second TB5 port an OUT port for daisy-chaining?

2. Is the bandwidth of DP 2.1 port 80 Gbps?

3. Is the bandwidth of HDMI 2.1 ports 48 Gbps?

4. What is the charging Wattage?

We shouldn't be begging LG or anyone else to tell us basic pieces of technical information about ports.

Fair criticism but this is just a press release for the media and some of those things can be easily inferred:
1. they mention daisy-chaining, without a second DP port it has to be thunderbolt out from one of the several usb-c
2. good question, should be at least UHBR13.5 since they're selling the thunderbolt 5 80gbps so much (leaving bandwith for the ethernet and all that), or really 80gbps again given all the focus on that speed
3. they've been solid so far on that regard and real hdmi 2.1 is pretty well established now, no reason for it to be anything else.
4. 96W - source: lgparts.com/products/lg-40wt95uf which yesterday already saw spare parts with prices which have since been hidden

The real shame is the lack of any availability date or estimated price imo.

Not sure what an OLED picture has to do with an announcement about an IPS display.
