LG UltraGear evo 5K gaming monitors arrive before CES 2026

New Delhi: LG Electronics has recently unveiled UltraGear evo, the latest premium gaming monitor brand that will debut at CES 2026. The first UltrGear evo lineup includes three flagship models, which include: 39GX950B, 27GM950B, and 52G930B, all built around high-resolution displays and advanced panel technologies. The UltraGear evo lineup debuts LG’s newly developed on-device AI solution. The system enables the world’s first 5K AI Upscaling, designed to enhance lower-resolution content to near 5K clarity without requiring GPU upgrades. AI features include 5K AI Upscaling, AI Scene Optimisation, and AI Sound, and are available exclusively on the 39GX950B and 27GM950B models equipped with the on-device AI hardware.


The 39GX950B is a 39-inch 5K2K OLED gaming monitor based on LG’s GX9 series. With the on-device AI solution, content is analysed and processed in real time before reaching the panel, improving clarity, image balance, and audio output. The monitor uses Primary RGB Tandem OLED technology, delivering higher brightness, improved colour accuracy, extended panel lifespan, perfect blacks, and accurate colour reproduction. It supports Dual Mode, enabling users to switch between 165Hz at 5K2K resolution and 330Hz at WFHD, combined with an ultra-fast 0.03ms response time.

The display features a 1500R curved 21:9 ultra-wide panel that retains the vertical viewing height of a 32-inch display while expanding horizontal screen space. It offers 142 PPI pixel density and carries VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification for controlled highlights and deep black levels.

The 27GM950B is positioned as the world’s first 27-inch 5K New MiniLED gaming monitor designed to reduce blooming significantly. The panel features 2304 local dimming zones and incorporates Zero Optical Distance engineering to minimise the gap between the MiniLED backlight and the display panel. The monitor supports the same on-device AI features as the 39GX950B, including 5K AI Upscaling, AI Scene Optimisation, and AI Sound, operating without GPU overhead. For performance flexibility, the display supports Dual Mode, enabling switching between 165Hz at 5K resolution and 330Hz at QHD, paired with a 1ms response time. It is VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certified and delivers peak brightness of up to 1250nits, supporting precise luminance control across bright and dark scenes.

The 52G930B expands the UltraGear evo range as the world’s largest 5K2K gaming monitor. It combines a 52-inch display with a 240Hz refresh rate, targeting large-format gaming and multitasking setups. The panel provides the vertical height of a standard 42-inch 16:9 display, extended horizontally into the 12:9 panoramic format, creating a workspace that is 33% wider than a standard UHD monitor. A 1000R curvature surrounds the user’s peripheral vision. The display is certified VESA DisplayHDR 600, supporting controlled contrast and consistent colour output.
