LG’s New 45″ Ultrawide OLED Monitors with 5K2K Resolution Showcased at CES 2025

We had chance today to see the impressive new LG 45GX950A and 45GX990A in person at the LG booth at CES 2025. These new OLED screens offer a large 45″ ultrawide format with a 21:9 aspect ratio, but unlike previous OLED’s of this size, they have a higher 5120 x 2160 (or “5K2K”) resolution. That’s been combined with a 165Hz refresh rate here as well and they’re using LG.Display’s latest WOLED panels. They also support a dual-mode function allowing you to drop to a 2560 x 1080 resolution but double your refresh rate to 330Hz for faster gaming.

There’s a standard curved model available (the 950A) with a steep 800R curvature. They had this set up at the booth with a racing sim game, which is well suited to this wrap-around screen shape and provided a high level of user immersion.

For those who don’t want a steeply curved screen, LG are also providing a bendable version (the 990A) which has a motorized function that can switch the screen between a nearly-as-steep 900R curvature or a completely flat style instead, or anywhere in between we were told. They had this set up with two buttons that you could press to switch between the curved and flat mode – cue endless pressing back and forth by everyone there.

Loads more information and specs are available in our previous news article so we won’t repeat all of that here. See also: ALL The Best CES 2025 Monitor news!

Pricing and Availability

The 45GX950A official product page is now live for the US and the screen is available to pre-order directly from LG.com, or from a variety of well-known retailers, at a RRP is $1,999 USD. LG.com do have an offer available which will give you $100 off a purchase of a new 2025 line-up monitor as well, so that’s worth signing up for. The screen shows as “in stock” now at LG.com, so we expect shipments to commence imminently. Other retailers show an ETA of 5 April 2025 at the earliest.

The bendable 45GX990A mass production and pricing is still to be determined. You can keep an eye on our tracker article for more info as it becomes available.
