      Company Redefines Premium Gaming Monitors With the UltraGear GX9 Series,
      Offering Unmatched Immersion, Flexibility and Smart Features

      SEOUL, Dec. 30, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is reinforcing its leadership in premium OLED gaming monitors with the LG UltraGear GX9 series, set to be unveiled at CES 2025 this January. The new lineup includes the 45GX990A – winner of three CES 2025 Innovation Awards, including the prestigious ‘Best of Innovation’ – and an all-in-one smart gaming monitor powered by LG webOS. These accolades underscore LG’s commitment to delivering advanced, high-quality gaming solutions. With the GX9 series, LG continues to demonstrate its leadership in cutting-edge technology and gaming monitor innovation.
      To ensure maximum gaming immersion, all UltraGear GX9 series models feature curved display panels employing LG’s advanced WOLED technology. These screens offer high brightness, true blacks, stunning colors and optimized curvature; a combination that brings games to life and draws users deeper into the exhilarating action of their favorite titles. Certified for low blue light emissions, the GX9 series provides a more comfortable experience, reducing eye strain during extended gaming sessions. In addition, LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection (AGLR) coating minimizes screen reflections and glare, making it easier for gamers to see everything that’s happening on screen, even in brighter rooms.
      The 45GX990A and 45GX950A are 45-inch, 21:9 gaming monitors featuring ultra-high 5K2K resolution (5,120 x 2,160) – a first for OLED monitors.* Their 21:9 aspect ratio offers a more immersive gaming experience than standard 16:9 displays, while maintaining better content compatibility than 32:9 monitors. With generous screen real estate, these monitors are a great choice not only for gaming but for various different uses.
      Both products feature LG’s second-generation Dual-Mode, offering customizable aspect ratios (21:9 or 16:9) and picture sizes (39-, 34- or 27-inches) with one-touch switching between preset screen-resolution and refresh-rate combos. With eight configurations, users can personalize their gaming setups to suit their preferences or adapt to different game genres, including FPS, RPG, MOBA and racing simulators.
      The World’s First Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor with Dual-Mode
      The LG UltraGear OLED Bendable Gaming Monitor (model 45GX990A) is the world’s first 5K2K-resolution bendable OLED display. The 45-inch monitor can smoothly transition from completely flat to a 900R curvature within seconds, offering users incredible flexibility and more control over their gaming experience. Its upgraded Dual-Mode feature allows users to switch effortlessly between resolution and refresh rate presets, and customize the aspect ratio and picture size. With an ultra-fast 0.03ms (GtG) response time, the 45GX990A ensures smooth gameplay and heightened immersion.
      The World’s First 45-Inch 5K2K OLED Gaming Monitor with 800R Curvature and DisplayPort 2.1
      Another standout model from the new GX9 lineup is the LG UltraGear OLED Gaming Monitor (model 45GX950A). With its curved (800R), 21:9 format 5K2K-resolution self-lit 45-inch panel, this display delivers sharp, lifelike images with the stunning colors and exceptional contrast LG OLED products are known for. Its 4-side Virtually Borderless design and slim bezels help boost users’ sense of immersion while adding a sleek aesthetic to any setup. Boasting 125 pixels per-inch (PPI) and an RGWB subpixel layout, the monitor improves the readability of in-game text and makes productivity tasks, such as editing documents or website content, that much easier.
      Like its bendable sibling, the 45GX950A features Dual-Mode functionality with eight customizable configurations and supports DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1 and USB-C with 90W power delivery. This ensures seamless compatibility with the latest graphics cards and features such as variable refresh rate (VRR) while enabling convenient device charging. Certified by NVIDIA G-SYNC® and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, the monitor has reduced screen tearing for a smoother, more responsive gaming experience.
      Versatile Smart Gaming Monitor for Seamless Streaming and Immersive Gaming
      The brand-new LG UltraGear 39GX90SA is designed to deliver stellar gaming and content-streaming experiences. Powered by webOS, it functions as a home entertainment hub, enabling users to access all their go-to streaming services without a PC or set-top box. It’s 39-inch, 21:9 aspect ratio curved (800R) OLED display produces brilliant, nuanced colors and deep, dark blacks, making it perfect for AAA games and HDR movies and series. Equipped with USB Type-C ports, it offers convenient connectivity, and incorporates LG’s ergonomic and space-saving L-shaped stand for a clutter-free desk setup.
      “The UltraGear GX9 series sets a new standard for OLED gaming monitors, combining groundbreaking display technology with smart features that expand and enhance the user experience,” said YS Lee, vice president and head of the IT Business Unit, LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “From the world’s first 5K2K OLED gaming monitors with second-generation Dual-Mode to smart gaming monitors with built-in webOS, the GX9 lineup pushes the boundaries to deliver maximum value and enjoyment for our customers.”

      Gardening Lifestyle Solution Brings the Beauty and Bounty of Nature Indoors

      SEOUL, Dec. 24, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to unveil its innovative new indoor gardening appliance at CES 2025. This latest personal horticultural solution combines an advanced system that encourages fast, healthy plant growth with a modern floor-standing lamp design, effortlessly stylish in any setting. Ideal for gardening novices as well as urbanites who enjoy bringing nature into their homes, this appliance makes plant cultivation a simple and satisfying experience.
      Slender and upright with a circular “lampshade” and base, LG’s distinctive appliance is both an elegant interior object and a highly practical means of producing fresh home-grown greens. Despite its apartment-friendly footprint, the new model offers more growing space compared to the company’s previous indoor gardening appliances, enabling users to nurture a wider variety of plants, including taller species. Its adaptable growing space and height-adjustable LED growing lights provide considerable flexibility and the ideal conditions for raising a range of different leafy greens, herbs, flowers and fruits. Great for busy lifestyles, LG’s new solution supports continuous growing cycles and features a large, 1.5-gallon-capacity water tank that delivers more hydration between refills.*
      The appliance boasts two types of functional and aesthetically-pleasing lighting: downward-facing lights with five intensity levels to support optimal plant growth during the day, and upward-facing mood lighting to create a cozy, calming ambiance in the evening. This dual lighting design elevates the value and utility of LG’s latest gardening appliance while also highlighting the company’s unique ability to develop versatile “hybrid” solutions that deliver the benefits of multiple products.
      With a twenty-plant, four-seed-kit capacity, the new indoor gardening appliance automatically dispenses the right amount of water and nutrients for the number and variety of plants being grown. This advanced system ensures consistent care, even when users are away for extended periods, as long as a week. In addition, compatibility with the LG ThinQ app allows users to manage cultivation schedules, adjust lighting settings and monitor plant growth from any location.
      Along with the “floor-standing lamp” model, LG will reveal a new indoor gardening appliance featuring a nature-inspired side table design at CES 2025. This compact, multifunctional model provides an easy, enjoyable home gardening experience and demonstrates LG’s continuing commitment to providing compelling choices for various tastes and lifestyles.
      “Our new indoor gardening appliances present a fresh way for customers to create their own personal green spaces, have fun growing their own plants, and infuse their homes with an inspired touch of modern style,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. “We will continue to deliver innovative indoor solutions that allow anyone to experience the joy of gardening, regardless of where they live.”
      Visitors to CES 2025 from January 7-10 can explore all of LG’s latest innovations, including the new indoor gardening appliances, at the company’s booth (#15004, Las Vegas Convention Center).

      * The water tank of LG’s previous indoor gardening appliance model provided a 0.8-gallon (approx.) / 3-liter capacity, while the smaller, mini-model provided a 0.3-gallon (approx.) / 1-liter capacity.
