Hola, tech geeks and gamers. Here comes a new offering from the house of LG for gamers. Earlier this week, we covered a 240 Hz refresh rate OLED 27-inch gaming display. What is the specification of this new release? When will it be available for purchase? What will be the price? We will unravel it all. To know more about it, read the article.
What is the LG curved screen all about?
It’s worth noting that despite the high resolution of that small screen (2560×1440). LG is still in the infancy, or at least the very first stages, of the mini OLED era.
The LG Curved Screen Project 491C is a super ultra-wide panel-equipped curved gaming monitor of the next generation. The interesting thing about this panel is that it uses the QD-OLED technology and provides a whopping 240Hz refresh rate. The display itself is a rare “SUPER ULTRA-WIDE” “The monitor has a format not typically seen in gaming monitors, and while a few possibilities exist, none of them uses QD-OLED (240Hz) technology.
As it turns out, LG is also releasing a wide OLED screen. The screen’s diameter is a whopping 45 inches, yet the resolution remains the same at 3440 by 1440. It’s an OLED panel with a 240 Hz refresh rate and a curved display (800R). LG promotes this WHQD screen with a response time of 0.03 ms.
A glimpse of details of the LG curved screen
The display can be preordered beginning on December 12 for the listed price of $1,699.99. By December 28th, LG hopes to have this display in customers’ hands. We don’t know much about MSI’s upcoming LG Curved Screen Project 491C curved QD-OLED gaming monitor. Still, we know it will have 49-inch display “proportions and Ultra-High-Quality High-Definition (UWQHD) resolution.
From its bezels, this monitor has a sleek, modern design reminiscent of a gaming console. Given MSI’s reputation for quality, it has a substantial stand and probably has the RGB Illumination found on the company’s higher-end gaming monitors.
Is this the innovation for gamers?
MSI is remaining tight-lipped about this matter. The only known fact is that this display won an Innovation Award from CES before the event.
MSI said, “If you’re looking for a viewing experience unlike any other, go no further than the world’s first super ultra-wide curved gaming monitor, which features a 240Hz QD-OLED display. Project 491C will be unveiled at CES2023, so get ready to meet us there!”
The company has already won the “Innovation” award for LG Curved Screen Project 491C and plans to provide more details at CES 2023. It’s a given that the high quality of this QD-OLED gaming display will come at a high price. The MEG 342C, a 34-inch QD-OLED gaming display from MSI, offers a UWQHD (3440×1440) panel with support for a 175Hz refresh rate and 0.1ms reaction time for those who want a more measured approach.
