LG UNVEILS ULTRAGEAR EVO, REDEFINING 5K GAMING WITH WORLD’S FIRST AI UPSCALING TECHNOLOGY

Expanding the Boundaries of High-Resolution Gaming With a New Lineup Spanning OLED, New MiniLED and Ultra-Wide Formats

LG Electronics (LG) announced today the global launch of its new premium gaming monitor brand, UltraGear evo™, set to debut at CES 2026. Building on LG’s established leadership in 5K and 5K2K gaming displays, UltraGear evo expands the boundaries of high-resolution gaming with a portfolio of 5K-and-above monitors spanning OLED, New MiniLED and ultra-wide formats, combining ultra-high definition, speed and immersion across multiple form factors. The inaugural UltraGear evo lineup features three flagship models – 39GX950B, 27GM950B and 52G930B – united by a shared foundation of high-resolution excellence.

At the heart of this evolution is LG’s commitment to uncompromised image quality, reinforced by a newly introduced on-device AI solution. This proprietary technology powers the world’s first 5K AI Upscaling technology.* This technology achieves stunning 5K-class clarity without the burden of GPU upgrades and allows gamers to enjoy a wider range of content in high definition – transcending original resolution limits.

39-Inch 5K2K OLED Gaming Monitor With 5K AI Upscaling

The LG UltraGear evo 39-inch GX9 (39GX950B) builds on the legacy of the GX9 series as a 39-inch 5K2K OLED gaming monitor that delivers uncompromised visual quality and immersive gameplay. Building on this foundation, with the new on-device AI solution, the monitor analyzes and enhances content in real time before it reaches the panel, delivering stunning 5K-class clarity without requiring GPU upgrades. This goes beyond resolution, incorporating AI Scene Optimization and AI Sound, the monitor refines images and audio performance for a more immersive audiovisual experience.

Visual performance is enhanced by LG’s Primary RGB Tandem OLED technology, delivering improved brightness, color accuracy and panel longevity with perfect black and lifelike colors. Designed to adapt to different gaming genres, the Dual Mode feature allows seamless switching between 165Hz at 5K2K resolution and 330Hz at WFHD, supported by an ultra-fast 0.03ms (GtG) response time – enabling gamers to prioritize either visual fidelity or ultra-smooth competitive play.

The 1500R-curved 21:9 ultrawide display that retains the vertical height of a 32-inch screen while expanding horizontal immersion for both gaming and multitasking. With a pixel density of 142 PPI and VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 certification, the monitor delivers detailed highlights and deep blacks even in the darkest scenes.

World’s First 5K New MiniLED Monitor solving for blooming

The LG UltraGear evo 27-inch GM9 (27GM950B) sets a new standard for 27-inch gaming monitors as the world’s first 5K New MiniLED display designed to dramatically improve blooming control. By effectively minimizing halo effects that commonly affect high-resolution MiniLED displays, the monitor delivers professional grade 5K precision with exceptional optical clarity. Featuring 2,304 local dimming zones, combined with Zero Optical Distance engineering that minimizes the gap between the panel and LED, the monitor delivers ultra-high luminance and refined contrast accuracy that preserves fine details across bright and dark scenes alike.

Like the 39-inch GX9, the 27GM950B incorporates the on-device AI solution, enabling 5K AI Upscaling, AI Scene Optimization and AI Sound to enhance image and audio in real time without GPU overhead.

For versatile gaming performance, the monitor supports Dual Mode operation, allowing users to switch between 165Hz at 5K resolution and 330Hz at QHD, paired with a fast 1ms (GtG) response time. Certified VESA DisplayHDR 1000 and delivering peak brightness of up to 1,250 nits, the display ensures vivid highlights, intense flames and sharp flashes of light are rendered with striking realism alongside deep, controlled blacks.

World’s Largest 52-Inch 5K2K 240Hz Gaming Monitor

The LG UltraGear evo 52-inch G9 (52G930B) introduces a new class of large-format gaming displays as the world’s largest 5K2K gaming monitor, offering gamers an unprecedented range of screen size options within the UltraGear evo lineup. The expansive scale is paired with a blazing-fast 240Hz refresh rate, ensuring consistent responsiveness and image fidelity.

The massive screen features the vertical viewing height of a standard 42-inch 16:9 display, stretching horizontally for an expansive 12:9 panoramic view. This form factor provides a workspace 33 percent wider than a standard UHD monitor. A 1000R curvature encloses the user’s peripheral vision for seamless immersion. Visuals are equally impactful delivering vivid color and deep contrast validated by VESA Display HDR™ 600.

“The new UltraGear evo marks a definitive turning point, signaling the end of compromises in gaming display performance. With innovations like industry-first 5K AI Upscaling, the lineup ensures that whether gamers prefer perfect blacks, unmatched brightness, or expansive scale, they can enjoy the same high standard of performance, clarity and immersion in high resolution” said Lee Choong-hwoan, head of the Display Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “This reflects our excellence in delivering high-resolution technology not only to the B2C gaming market but also through precision-driven B2B solutions like medical monitors.”

The bar-raising LG UltraGear evo lineup is set to be showcased at CES 2026. Visitors can experience the evo lineup’s high-quality visuals through two zones: the “Dream Setup” inspired by the Reddit’s gaming communities and a SimCraft-powered racing simulation featuring the new 39-inch GX9.

In addition to the new evo series, sales of the UltraGear™ GX7 (27GX790B) will commence in global markets on the opening day of CES 2026. This 27-inch gaming monitor boasts a QHD Primary RGB Tandem OLED display, 540Hz refresh rate and Dual Mode (HD 720Hz), matching the high expectations of avid gamers.

Meet the International Panel of Judges for Benilde Open Design + Art 2025

Mireia Luzárraga

Behind every bold idea is someone willing to see its potential. For Benilde Open Design + Art 2025, that responsibility falls to an international panel of judges made up of leading voices in design, architecture, technology, and contemporary culture. Together, they have reviewed this year’s submissions and selected the grantees whose concepts best respond to the theme, “Extension of Nature”,helping shape which ideas move from imagination to real-world realization.

Coming from museums, universities, global companies, and cultural institutions, the jury reflects what Benilde Open is about where art, design, and innovation meet to imagine future facing ideas rooted in the world we live in. Each judge brings a distinct perspective, united by a shared commitment to champion bold, thoughtful work that pushes boundaries.

Judging the Future of Art + Design

Members of the panel of judges include Freddy Anzures, a Filipino American designer whose work has helped shape how millions of people interact with technology every day. As part of Apple’s original iPhone design team, Anzures contributed to defining features such as swipe-to-unlock, iMessage effects, and Visual Voicemail. With decades of experience in human-centered interface design, he brings a valuable perspective on how innovation can remain intuitive, meaningful, and grounded in experience.

Freddy Anzures

It also includes Jihoi Lee, curator at Korea’s National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA). Her work moves between architecture, care, and the body through multidisciplinary exhibitions that travel internationally—from Seoul to Venice. With landmark projects such as Looking After Each Other and Jung Youngsun: For All That Breathes On Earth, Lee brings a research-driven, global lens shaped by her work across Asia, Europe, and the United States.

Representing architecture as both practice and research is Mireia Luzárraga, architect, educator, and co-founder of TAKK, a Barcelona–New York–based studio known for its feminist and ecological approach to design. Her work which is exhibited at major biennials and institutions worldwide, explores how architecture can support more equitable ways of living.

From the world of large-scale design leadership comes Nathalie Huni, Managing Director and Head of Design at Wells Fargo, where she leads end-to-end digital experiences across consumer, AI, small business, and wealth management platforms. With a background spanning industrial design, advertising, and digital products, Huni understands what it takes to create design that works in real life, bridging creativity, strategy, and impact at scale.

Nathalie Huni

Rounding up the panel is Timothy Moore, Curator of Contemporary Design and Architecture at the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) and long-time director of Melbourne Design Week. A founder of Sibling Architecture and Senior Lecturer at Monash University, Moore brings deep experience in public programming and design discourse especially in work that experiments with material, space, and new ways of imagining the future.

Timothy Moore

Shaping What Comes Next

Together, the panel of judges have helped define the next chapter of Benilde Open Design + Art, identifying projects that reflect the spirit of experimentation, sustainability, and creative ambition. Their combined expertise ensures that the selected finalists won’t just challenge conventions, they’ll help spark conversations around how design can extend, respond to, and evolve with nature.

Benilde Open Design + Art, a biennial platform by De La Salle–College of Saint Benilde, supports experimental and in-progress ideas at the intersection of art, design, and technology. From this year’s submissions, the jury have selected finalists who will each receive production grants of up to Php 300,000 to bring their ideas to life, culminating in a public presentation of the realized works.

The finalists chosen through the discernment of this international panel will be announced in the coming months, marking the next stage of Benilde Open Design + Art 2025.
