Forget curved monitors, LG's gone full bendable with the UltraGear GX9 series. That's right, this bad boy can go from flat to a 900R curve faster than you can say "PlayerUnknown’s BattleGrounds." Leading the pack is the 45GX990A, a 45-inch 5K2K OLED beast that's snagged not one, not two, but three CES Innovation Awards. This monitor isn't just bendy, it's also brain-meltingly sharp, boasting the world's first 5K2K resolution for an OLED gaming monitor.
Second in the line is the LG 45GX950A, a curved 45-inch 5K2K OLED monitor with a fixed 800R curvature. Both monitors come loaded with LG's Dual-Mode tech, letting you tweak aspect ratios and picture sizes on the fly. Imagine switching from a focused 16:9 battlefield to a sprawling 21:9 racing sim with a single click.
And if that wasn't enough to make your eyeballs explode, LG's also unveiled the 39GX90SA, a 39-inch smart gaming monitor powered by webOS. Think of it as a gaming monitor and a streaming box had a beautiful, OLED-powered baby.
Curved monitors haven’t become mainstream yet but bendables do make a strong case for switching between immersive sim racing to flat-screen RPG gaming on the fly.
