LG at CES 2019 is set to announce two new monitors on its “Ultra” lineup, which includes the UltraWide and UltraGear product lines. The UltraWide is pretty self-explanatory, and will be populated by the 49WL95 monitor, a 49″ IPS, dual QHD (5120 x 1440) resolution panel with a 32:9 aspect ratio (there’s support for up to three PbP modes simultaneously, thus making this a triple monitor setup, should you so choose). 99% coverage of the sRGB color space ensures faithful color reproduction. There’s also support for HDR10 content, though the typical brightness of the monitor stands at 350 nits (peak brightness not disclosed). Connectors stand at 1x USB-C, 2x HDMI 1x DP, and 4x USB 3.0.
The second monitor is on LGs UltraGear lineup. The 38GL950G features LG’s Nano IPS technology and support for NVIDIA G-Sync and 144 Hz refresh rate. It has a 38″ diagonal across a curved panel, a WQHD+ (3840 x 1600) resolution, and a more standard (or is that less wide?) 21:9 aspect ratio. A typical 450 nits brightness means this monitor also supports HDR content, and connectors include 1x HDMI, 1x DP, and 3x USB 3.0 (1 up / 2 down). If any of these monitor ticks your “I want it now” boxes, you might want to wait until CES for the actual announcement and availability info.
