LG is using its latest Tandem OLED which is said to offer improved brightness, color accuracy and panel longevity with deep blacks and true to life colors.
Like the 27-inch model, the new 39-inch GX9 ultrawide monitor comes with a dual resolution option with 165 Hz at 5K2K resolution and 330 Hz at WFHD (2560×1080) and up to 0.03ms (GtG) response time. The integrated AI enhancement features also carry over this model including 5K AI Upscaling, AI Scene Optimization, and AI Sound.
For console gamers, LG is introducing the UltraGear evo 52-inch G9 (52G930B), a new large-format gaming display that is also the world’s largest 5K2K gaming monitor. It offers up to a 240 Hz refresh rate for a smooth and responsive experience and an unconventional aspect ratio of 12:9. LG claims that you get the same vertical space as a standard 42-inch 16:9 display, but a 33% wider experience compared to standard UHD monitors. It also has a 1000R curvature that aims to enclose the user’s peripheral vision as well as VESA Display HDR 600 certification for vivid colors and deep contrast.
Expect LG to share more details around pricing and availability next month during the CES 2026 showcase. In addition to the new Ultragear evo series, LG has also confirmed that it will start selling its latest UltraGear GX7 (27GX790B) globally on the opening day of CES 2026. Announced back in August , this 27-inch gaming monitor features LG’s latest 4th Gen Tandem OLED with Primary RGB Tandem technology, QHD resolution, and dual mode functionality that can boost its 540 Hz native refresh rate to 720 Hz at HD (720p) resolution.
