UltraGear OLED 39GX950B: LG details new OLED gaming monitor with pre-orders starting soon

LG has now detailed its latest 39-inch OLED gaming monitor after presenting the device at the end of last year. To recap, the company previously confirmed that the UltraGear OLED 39GX950B outputs at a 5,120 x 2,160 (5K2K) resolution in a 21:9 aspect ratio like the larger UltraGear OLED 45GX950A before it (curr. $1,435 on Amazon).

Likewise, the new monitor can either output at 5K2K and 165 Hz with 0.03 ms Gt G response times or 330 Hz by dropping to 1080p (2,560 x 1080). However, the UltraGear OLED 39GX950B adopts a newer 4th Gen Primary RGB Tandem OLED panel with improved text clarity. Moreover, LG's new 39-inch monitor features a 1500R curvature rather than the steeper 800R curvature found on the UltraGear OLED 45GX950A.

Also, LG has confirmed that the UltraGear OLED 39GX950B covers 99% of the DCI-P3 colour space with 335 nits SDR and 1,500 nits peak brightness at APL 1.5%. On top of that, LG has included DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 ports, which it complements with a USB Type-C port capable of charging devices at up to 90 W. LG states that pre-orders will commence soon in Japan. Pricing and availability for other markets remain unknown for now, though.
