Our take on the LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B

The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a 45-inch curved OLED gaming monitor with a 3440x1440 ultrawide panel and a 240Hz refresh rate. Its 0.03ms response time and near-instant pixel switching make it one of the fastest displays you can buy, and OLED gives it deep blacks and strong contrast that LCD rivals cannot match. The aggressive 800R curve wraps the screen around your view, which suits immersive single-player games and racing sims but feels odd for spreadsheets and text work. Reviewers praise the motion clarity and color, while some owners flag the matte coating, modest brightness and the risk of OLED burn-in with static desktop elements.

Questions and answers

Is the LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B good for competitive gaming?

Yes. Its 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time give very low motion blur, and the ultrawide view helps with peripheral awareness. The curve and size take some adjustment.

Can I use it for office work and text?

It works, but the 800R curve and matte coating make text less crisp than a flat IPS panel. For heavy spreadsheet or document use, a flat monitor is a better fit.

Does it support HDR?

Yes, but brightness is modest for an OLED, so HDR highlights are restrained compared with bright LCD rivals. It looks best in a dim room.

What connections does it have?

Two HDMI ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, a two-port USB hub and a headphone jack. There is no Ethernet or built-in camera.

Is burn-in a real risk?

OLED panels can retain static images over long sessions. LG includes pixel-shifting and screen-care features, and varied content lowers the risk.

Can it be mounted on a monitor arm?

Yes. It has a VESA mount and the stand is height-adjustable and tiltable, though the panel is heavy at about 24 lb with the stand.
