The LG UltraGear 32GS95UE is LG's contribution to the growing class of high-end/premium 32" 4K 240Hz OLED monitors. This monitor uses LG's in house WOLED technology, as opposed to QD-OLED from Samsung. There are minimal pros and cons to both, but overall, you'll get all the benefits of OLED with the gorgeous colors, near infinite contrast with true deep blacks, and the instantaneous 0.03ms response time. The standout feature of the 32GS95UE is the dual mode that seems to be unique as of now to WOLED displays. LG is the first to have it, and other brands such as ASUS has teased there own using the same LG WOLED display. The dual mode lets you quickly switch from an immersive UHD 4K 240Hz display to a blazing fast competitive FHD 1080p 480Hz display with a simple press of a button. Basically, you are getting a 2-in-1 with this monitor. No matter the game you play or type of player you are, this monitor will be perfect. This LG also has an anti-glare matte finish. This has been highly controversial, but the matte finish on this display is pretty minimal. It does its job without washing out the contrast of the colors or taking away from the deep blacks. If you want to see how little this matte finish affects the display, look up Youtuber "Optimum" on "matte vs glossy OLED" on YouTube. He breaks everything down with this specific monitor side-by-side with a glossy QD-OLED. Although a glossy display will always have a bit more sharpness and color, those who bash on this display have either not seen it in person or have been brainwashed by those online to feel otherwise. For me, the matte finish was a must have since I use my PC often in bright rooms with a window right next to me. On the other hand, QD-OLEDs lack a polarizing layer on their displays which caused raised blacks and a purple tint in bright lit rooms. The speaks on this monitor are some of the bests I have ever heard. Most monitors I have used or tried have terrible speaks, if they even have any. Coming from the ASUS ROG PG42UQ which also had fantastic speakers, these ones still blew me away. The "Pixel Sound" truly comes from the screen with great volume and clarity, with decent bass. Pricing is the only real con I have experienced so far with this monitor. Although you are getting a 2-in-1 experience with the dual mode, I think LG should have better positioned themself with this feature while also staying competitive with pricing with the growing popularity of QD-OLEDs, especially considering there are models below $1k. I think a starting price of around $1,200 would have been much better. Overall, the 32GS95UE is my favorite 32" 4K 240Hz OLED monitor this year (so far). It's clear 4K resolution, gorgeous colors and deep blacks thanks to the OLED panel, and ultra smooth 240Hz with a 0.03ms GTG pixel response time make up a truly immersive experience. Add in the dual mode, pixel sound, and a clean design, and we have the ultimate gaming monitor.

This is a fantastic monitor and gives you fantastic picture quality along with the best of both worlds when it comes to refresh rate. There is a newer refresh model with only differences being worse built in speakers, a dp 2.1 (although it is only uhbr 13.5 and useless unless you have a 50 series gpu) and a 90w usb c. This one is generally cheaper on sales and a much better option in my opinion, but get whichever moth can find cheaper. Been loving this monitor so far.

On it's own, this monitor is is among the best OLED options available. While it isn't perfect and does not have the features many of the competition do, it's sleek and professional. One feature that differentiates it, are the pixel sound speakers which allowed me to free up desk space for a minimalistic setup as they are quite good. It is a gaming focused monitor and excels in this area with quick response times, high refresh rates and vivid colors but it also has an SRGB good enough for professional editing work. I don't; use the 480hz often I admit but when I do it makes for very smooth sessions in call of duty. What I like most about this monitor is that its consistent. Ambient light doesn't ruin the picture at any point. Against the QD-OLED competition, it does not have the same level of color saturation out of the box but after testing this one against the AW3225QF for a few weeks I found the difference to be largely exaggerated in person. The color boost you get with QD-OLED is minimal and disappears once you turn on the lights on as QD-OLED lacks a polarizer and will turn magenta when overexposed. The matte finish on this screen is excellent at getting rid of reflections and unnoticeable unless you have a pure white background. However, for many a matte finish is a con. Side by side it was difficult for me to notice the glossy having a better image and I think claims of this are overstated. Despite this, the whites on the WOLED panels are superior to that of the QD-OLED panel which add a tinge of red to every image. In reality there are pros and cons to WOLED vs QD-OLED but when it comes to using a monitor for gaming and productivity, the WOLED panels with matte finish make more sense. ASUS makes a WOLED variant of this same panel which has more features (no speakers) but this panel is usually on sale and unless you need the extra ports coming out of your monitor, I recommend this it over the ASUS. That being said I withhold the 5th star because I feel that LG could have at least added a 90w USB-C port for Macbook users and such and also because the retail price at $1399 is not justified. I recommend this monitor whenever it goes on sale. As a bonus I did the wife test and she agreed I the LG was overall a better experience than the AW3225QF!

If you have a high end gaming pc that can hit 300 - 400+ frames and you are competitive gamer, this monitor is a dream. This monitor is best for those that need a very fast refresh rate when gaming, but also want the highest quality 4k content display for everything else. I’m not sure what the negative reviews are talking about in regards to 480hz 1080 mode. Sure it’s slightly blurry compared to the 4k mode which is obvious when moving down in resolution but it looks fantastic in action. In Fortnite for example, everything is crystal and clear and smooth in 480hz. My win rate has risen substantially thanks to the blazing fast refresh rate and for me, its easier to target enemies due to the large 32in display. I was previously using a Asus 1440p 480hz oled but this LG is better in every way now. The only con is the HDR does not pop as much due to the 600nit peak brightness, however I’ve found a suitable fix. 1. Update the monitor to the newest firmware once you get it. 2. In Nvidia Control Panel, turn up the contrast and brightness. The monitor’ performance is drastically improved with those changes. If you’re lucky to see this monitor for a good sale, get it!!!

The LG UltraGear 32” OLED Dual Mode is an absolute beast of a monitor. The 4K 240 Hz mode looks gorgeous — colors pop, blacks are perfectly deep, and games feel super immersive. Then you can flip to 1080p 480 Hz for insane speed and buttery-smooth motion when playing competitive shooters. The switch between modes is quick and seamless too.
