Absolutely stunning! I replaced my 49” Samsung G9 Odyssey with the LG Ultragear and couldn’t be happier. It’s a lot of pixels for gaming (I have an RTX 5090), but it does have the dual mode feature where you can switch to 2560x1080@330Hz which I haven’t tried yet. One big plus for gaming is the built-in cross hair. You can select a small red or green dot as your cross hair which is ideal for me. The Samsung only has chunky tie-fighter shaped things that are way too large. Absolutely amazed by the color vibrance. Desktop clarity is also excellent in case you want to do coding or document writing. The curvature is more pronounced at 800R (vs. 1000R of the Samsung) but it works out well for my seating distance and eyesight,

Amazing monitor. 2 HDMI, 1 DP. Great picture. dual mode is great for switching between fast paced games and 4k single player.

I’ve been using the LG UltraGear 45" OLED Dual Mode monitor for a few weeks now, and it’s easily one of the most impressive displays I’ve owned. The dual-mode feature is incredibly useful, letting me switch between stunning 5K2K resolution at 165Hz for immersive, visually rich games and a blazing-fast 330Hz mode for competitive titles. The OLED panel really stands out with deep true blacks, vibrant colors, and exceptional contrast that make everything look more lifelike. Motion is incredibly smooth thanks to the near-instant response time, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced gameplay. The 45-inch ultrawide screen combined with the aggressive curve creates a highly immersive experience, especially for racing games and cinematic titles. Overall, it feels like a premium, next-level monitor that elevates both visual quality and performance in a way that’s hard to go back from.

If you're chasing the pinnacle of immersive gaming, the LG 45GX950B delivers a jaw-dropping experience: - First-of-its-kind 5K2K WUHD resolution (5120 x 2160) on a massive 45" curved OLED panel.

Ideal for both story-driven adventures and competitive esports. - A blazing 0.03ms GtG response time minimizes ghosting and keeps motion razor-sharp. - Equipped with DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C (90W PD). Supports FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC, ensuring smooth, tear-free visuals. - Certified for Anti-Glare, Flicker-Free, and Low Blue Light, making long sessions easier on the eyes.

This thing is great. The build quality is solid. Its 4 inputs allows for more inputs than the average person needs, and unless you have a state of the art rig, the monitor is probably more capable than your video hardware can take advantage up. This means it will work for now AND for your next computer you have yet to buy. The size is massive. The curve is something old me would have hated, but using it, you don't even notice it, really. It just makes the unit more immersive. I actually upgraded from the 2024 version, and the difference is incredible -- especially with my high end rig(s). My work machine is a couple years old, and can't take advantage of the 5K resolution, but all in all, this is an impressive upgrade over the predecessor. My only complaint is I wish there was a KVM built into the monitor, but I was able to procure a cheap KVM and although its now two button presses, I can quickly switch between 4 machines sharing a single keyboard and mouse -- macs and pcs.

Perfect clarity, amazing resolution, optimal, black whites, and colors, and a perfect amount of curve

Blown away with the graphics, especially coming from a 1440 ips Samsung. Luckily I have a 5090 to be able to get the most out of this monitor.

I wish the fit and finish on the back was a little nicer. Especially with a curved. You end up seeing the back. like a silver or white. Just not the cheap plastic. The monitor looks really nice. But after comparing to the qoled. I prefer those vivid colors and pop more. Overall, though, I do recommend it, it looks great.

I love this monitor. I upgraded from a 32” 4K QD-LED and it is gorgeous. 21:9 screen ratio and the 800r curve makes this very immersove for fps for casual and normal users.

offer excellent color accuracy, crisp resolution, and reliable build quality! high refresh rates for smooth performance, and sleek designs ideal for both work and

I switched from a LG cx48 and Alienware 34” 1440p monitor. Completely blown away at the difference in resolution compared to my previous set up. I run a decent rig with a 4090 gpu and have no issue running max settings on games like RDR2. I do use DLSS to keep the frames up.

Have used this exclusively for productivity. I had tried the previous 1440p version of this and felt the text was too blurry to use for work and development. This new monitor is a night and day difference for text clarity. It’s very sharp. Color and brightness are also great. I enjoy only needing one cable to connect my MacBook with to both display and power. My only issue there though is a lack of option to keep producing power to maintain charge on the Mac if the display goes unused into standby mode. Speakers are a little flat, but they are more than serviceable for basic audio needs. All in all, it’s exactly what I was hoping for. I will eventually attempt to use for gaming, but that is secondary for me.

Widescreen and great 5k picture, could use a remote but all in all good monitor!

This LG UltraGear 45” OLED is simply the best of the best — nothing else comes close. The OLED panel is breathtaking with perfect blacks, vibrant colors, and HDR that makes games and movies feel alive. The dual mode is a genius feature: 5K2K at 165Hz for the most immersive ultrawide experience, or WFHD at a blazing 330Hz when I need every competitive edge. The curve wraps around my vision for total immersion, and the response time is instant. I’ve owned plenty of high-end monitors, but this one sets a new standard. If you want the ultimate display for gaming, productivity, and sheer wow factor, this is it. Worth every penny — an absolute masterpiece from LG.

This is the best monitor on the market, you will need a decent gpu to push 5k2k but it’s worth it, the curve is awesome

Incredible monitor. I use for racing simulator so its very close to face and with the 5k2k resolution it is still extremely sharp image with amazing colors and blacks. Could be used for productivity but the 800r curve is ideal for gaming. Great with FPS games too and the dual mode with all the other screens size options you can run it as a 27” 16:9, 34” 21:9 and like ten other configurations in both 5k2k and 1080p

45 inches may seem massive for a gaining monitor, but the curve comes in clutch. The display is absolutely beautiful. Very minimum glare would not recommend using this monitor with anything less than a 5080 try running on a 5070 TI as well as a 9070 XT but could not get above 60 FPS on most titles without turning down the settings to very low

[Employee of bestbuy] Love this montior! The 5K resolution is very clear and the 165 hz is very fast. Love the quality of this monitor. Also, the stand is excellent as well and not as bulky as last generation.

Purchased this mainly for a driving simulator. Powered by a Radeon 7900XTX. Beautiful monitor. Deep blacks, colors pop out, muted sightly due to not being a glossy panel. Occasional VRR flickering gets a bit annoying but to be expected. Used with HDMI 2.1. There is some mention about the display port not being the latest standard of DP 2.1 UBHR 20 given the $2000 price, but this is academic in my opinion, looking at the quality of the image that isnt a deal breaker. Was initially hesitant about the extreme curve but it works perfectly for driving simulators. I like this so much that I am getting a second one for Microsoft Flight Simulator setup. One review on LG.com had green lines on the monitor, only hope I dont get this.

Monitor is as advertised. Was choosing between this and the smaller model, and the Best Buy rep sold me on this. I thought about it and made the purchase online. Pickup was super easy and they even took it out to the car for me.
