Posted .Hi, AlexI. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Monitor (45GX950A‑B) model. We understand the importance of having a monitor that performs reliably, especially when it’s a premium model and stops working after only a few weeks of standard use.
One helpful step you can try is power‑cycling the monitor by unplugging it for about 60 seconds and reconnecting it directly to a wall outlet, which can help reset the internal components.

- Pros mentioned:Overall performance
I 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.

Skip this montior. Do not buy.
||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.

Posted .Hi, Antonio. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG Monitor (45GX950A-B) model. We understand the importance of having an efficient and responsive setup for your workspace and gaming needs.
To ensure your monitor correctly detects active signals, please verify that the Auto Input Switch feature is enabled in the settings menu; you can typically find this under General or Input in the On-Screen Display (OSD). Additionally, check that your HDMI cables are HDMI 2.1 certified to maintain consistent communication between your devices and the monitor, as older cables can sometimes fail to trigger the automatic handshake required for switching. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-monitor-how-to-change-the-signal-input--20153247899736. For further assistance, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com so we can look into this for you. ^Juvy
Great 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.

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
