A: This monitor boasts a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio for deep, detailed picture quality.

Q: Why is this not the newest lg 45? The stand is different and no remote… why?

A: Feels weird to contradict "LG Customer Service", but their answer is wrong. This model (45GS96QB-B) is the current 2024 model, the newest model in this product line as of 5/2024. The 2023 model was the 45GR95QE-B. This 2024 model (96QB-B) has the following major differences: 1) built-in speakers, 2) a USB-C port, 3) VESA-certifed HDR (thanks to HDR400 + TrueBlack 4) a much-brighter SDR and HDR screen output. Weirdly: this newest version does NOT have a remote. If you can work around that issue, it is the superior model to last year's QE-B. You're welcome, LG. (BTW, you can find the December 12, 2023 press release announcing the QB-B model as the 2024 version and confirming the QB-B will hit store shelves in retail by April of 2024.

Q: Working from home using one laptop and two monitors to access remote desktop (Citrix/AWS). Can this monitor be split into two screens as if using 2 monitors on extended desktop? if so, please let me know how to do it.

A: Hello there, Holly. Thank you for your question. The LG UltraGear 45" OLED Gaming Monitor, model 45GS96QB-B, does support screen-splitting, allowing you to use it as two separate displays on an extended desktop, which can be very helpful for remote desktop work setups like Citrix or AWS. You can achieve this with its PBP (Picture-by-Picture) or PIP (Picture-in-Picture) features, which let you divide the screen and use two sources simultaneously. Here’s how to set it up: Connect your Laptop: Use either HDMI, DisplayPort, or USB-C connections to your laptop. Ensure you’re connecting both monitors as extended displays through your operating system’s display settings. Activate PBP/PIP Mode: Access the OnScreen Control (OSC) menu on the monitor. Look for the PBP/PIP settings under display options. Choose the preferred screen-splitting mode, and adjust the layout to your liking. Arrange Displays in Citrix or AWS Remote Desktop: Configure Citrix or AWS to recognize the split as separate monitors within your extended desktop setup. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-45gs96qb-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs For further assistance, feel free to message us on social media at @LGUSSupport, and we’ll be glad to walk you through the setup. Enjoy your new multitasking workspace! —Renzo

Q: Does this come with a remote to navigate the settings or menu easy? Or at least have a display widget center type app like Asus does to simply navigate the menu with the mouse on the menu with the monitor to make it easier?

A: A remote control is not included with the LG 45" UltraGear™ OLED WQHD 1440P 240Hz 0.03ms G-Sync Compatible 800R Curved Gaming Monitor with Built-in Speakers, Model # 45GS96QB-B. IT is incompatible with remote controls. You can navigate through the settings menu using the joystick button located under the LG logo located in the middle of the bottom bezel on the monitor...^Ivan.
