Gamer Displays Surge with OLED Technology Advancements
The gaming monitor market is witnessing a significant shift towards OLED panels, driven by improving technology and decreasing prices. LG is at the forefront of this evolution, recently introducing its latest OLED display for gamers at the K-Display 2025 event in Seoul.
Next-Generation Gaming Performance
LG’s new OLED panel boasts a 27-inch size with a QHD resolution, capable of an astounding 540Hz refresh rate. This can be further boosted to 720Hz in HD resolution thanks to a feature known as Dual mode (DFF). The panel utilizes fourth-generation OLED technology, delivering vibrant, true-to-life colors with 99.5% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage and a peak brightness of 1,500 nits.
Expanding OLED Horizons
Beyond gaming, LG also presented an ultrawide 45-inch monitor with a 5K2K resolution, marking the highest resolution currently available for an OLED panel. This technology is also finding its way into the automotive sector, with LG demonstrating in-car cabins featuring OLED screens. Additionally, they revealed an LCD panel with LTPS technology designed to selectively obscure content for the driver while remaining visible to passengers.
LG’s display innovations extend to televisions with 3-layer Old Tandem technology, capable of reaching up to 4,000 nits. These advancements highlight LG’s dominant position in the manufacturing of large OLED panels. The trend of OLED adoption in monitors is expected to continue, with projections indicating a 69% increase in shipments for 2025, according to TrendForce data (TrendForce, 2025).
