||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredible monitor. Fast response and amazing color combination. Deep real black with HDR. I just recommend make to have the correct GPU to get the best experience. Simply 5 stars
I would recommend this to a friendI really wanted to love this monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The display was pretty magnificent. Other than watching a few videos to get the calibration down. I really wanted this monitor to be my end game. The false advertising of DP 2.1 is that ended up getting me to return this panel and potentially wait for the FY26/FY27 one and hope for improvements. There is no point in having a DP 2.1 "capable" panel that was only doing UHBR10 at most per GPU-Z. Could improve ease of use with a remote or monitor software as well. That plastic joycon felt like it was going to break every time I had to use it.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought 1, one of two speakers was broken. Against my better judgement i brought it back and swapped it for a new monitor. Now, 3 months later it died. LG is going to pick it up and repair it, will take at least a month to get it back. It's pretty, but not worth it. DO NOT BUY THIS MONITOR.

LG Monitor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My grandson loves the monitor and the quality is awesome
I would recommend this to a friendPerfect so far.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dimensions are great for whatever you are doing
I would recommend this to a friendBest monitor I've ever owned
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is end-game for me, truly a jack of all trades, while also being the most innovative in terms of pushing boundaries of what hasn't been done before. Firstly, it's an OLED screen with about 1300 nits of peak brightness + around 800 nits in a 10% window. The highest mark an OLED monitor has ever hit in brightness thus far. Impressive, but it gets way better, the resolution is a masterpiece and a true sight to behold. The immersion and clarity from the 5k2k UW resolution is insane. Comparatively speaking in regards to my old LG C1 48", this was more immersive for any and all singleplayer games, while also boosting smoothness due to the 165hz refresh rate compared to just 120. You think the magic stops there? It doesnt. The MOST impressive and truly game-changing feature the monitor boasts is the dual mode either - 16:9, 1080p 330hz or the UW 1080p 330hz at different sizes such as 24", 27", 34" UW, 39" UW etc... now typically this would be extremely blurry even in game, but especially bad on the desktop. However, DLDSR can be used if you are rocking with an Nvidia card. Let me tell you, DLDSR 2.25x with the lower 1080p res + 330hz makes these various modes CRAZY good. Because of this, they all look good and from this one monitor, we have a 5k2k 165hz screen, a 1080p 34",39" 330hz ultrawide, and a 27" 24" 16:9 330hz. This monitor has satisfied every itch that I had for a monitor, whether it be the immersive 4k ultrawide, the 330hz ultrawide for competitive, or the 24 inch 330hz for ultra-sweat mode. This monitor does it all, while providing the response time, clarity, colors, depth, contrast, and beauty that resides in an OLED panel. It also includes some speakers that while are not great, I would rather have them than not. Overall this monitor is a 10/10 for me. All you need is to get your settings correctly on the monitor and in Nvidia control panel, boost the digital vibrance a bit to help close the gap with the QD-OLEDs with colors, and setup windows HDR with the calibration tool for 1300 nits
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Monitor but doesnt support thunderbolt 5 and also doesnt support ALLM

Good but will wait for a glossy version someday
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a good form factor, just don’t like the coating on it.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat resolution, lacking everywhere else
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Matte finish dulls everything on the screen. It makes a relatively the dim display look even duller. Still reflects absolutely everything off of it, and I would argue that it is more reflective than the glossy monitors and televisions that I own. Cool for being the first 5k2k OLED, but the window sticker is absolutely all it has going for it. What a disappointment.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from LG Digital Customer Care
Posted .Hi, there. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with the LG Monitor (45GX950A-B) model. We understand how the screen's matte finish can impact the viewing experience, especially if you're expecting richer contrast or brighter visuals. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations. While the anti-glare coating is designed to reduce reflections under bright lighting, it can occasionally create the perception of a softer or dimmer image, particularly when ambient light is strong or the display settings aren’t optimized.
To enhance your display’s performance, we recommend adjusting the OLED Pixel Brightness and switching to a more vivid Picture Mode such as Game or HDR Effect, which can help amplify color and contrast. You can find these settings under Settings > Picture > Picture Mode Settings. For more help, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-tv-the-best-picture-settings-for-your-lg-tv--20150577528034.
We’d like to help you get the best out of your OLED monitor. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport so we can explore more in-depth adjustments or provide additional support. We’re here to turn your experience around. ^Juvy
