Very nice unboxing and review. I may consider this to upgrade from my current monitor. Tecnology keeps advancing so fast. I keep upgrading every two years. Great information and narration. Thanks for sharing.👍
I have an LG monitor that's getting old, so I'm in the market for a new one. This one compares a little bit to the Samsung G9. There are some limitations with the ports on this monitor, but besides that, this is a really good one. I'll have to compare a little bit more, but this video helped a lot.
I have this monitor and removed the matte coating with a buffing machine and Novus 3 Step Plastic Polish and 3M Ultrafine Machine Polish. I also use a LG service remote and you can increase the brightness by turning off CPC enable and LEA refresh enable.
@@pk.002 whoa dude, that's amazing. I got one excellent condition best buy for 980. Debating if I should given all the hate it receives online for ppi and matte
I ordered the latest 45GS95QE-B model with the new smaller stand this morning for my flight/space sim setup. Amazon had a 30% off coupon for a few hours (seemingly gone now). I was planning on ordering the 39" but just could not pass up the sub $800 price on this one. Kinda feels like I stole it lol. To anyone else that was lucky enough to see that coupon and snatch one up congrats!
We need a 50-52” version of this Monitor. The 45” is actually smaller when you subtract the Curved from the horizontal length. You WILL NOT be occupying 45” on your desk FYi. (Its smaller)
The actual screen isnt 45 inches either. The 45 inches refers to the diagonal length so the horizontal length of the screen is actually closer to 42-43 inches
Awsome im debating buying one for my ps5 could you just confirm you can get 1440p at 120hz as a lot of these monitors say it then on the ps they never work , if you could that would be a hugeee help !
Could you please share more details on gaming crosshair? is it possible to do so via remote quickly? or its all the time 5 clicks manually? Does the crosshair fits exactly to the center?
@@GeekStreet thank you, currently with Samsung Odyssey - its 5 clicks and mainly bit off center - cant fit it to exact center. so hope it will be better here, mainly with remote
Hello, nice to see you again, nice channel. Please, I have a monitor doubt: between the monitor of this video and the *rog strix xg43vq*, which will be better to connect a PS5???. I will use it at 60% iracing (pc) and 40% GT7 (ps5). Again thx so much for your channel and support. :)
I'd you're going to use with a PS5, consoles don't support ultrawide so the picture it will either be stretched or you could game with black bars at the side.
@@GeekStreet Yes, I know ultrawide is not support by PS5, the image will be warped (widthwise) or black bars side.... is the picture of GT7 to much warped???. thx so much ! ;)
I had this monitor for my SimRacing rig and sent back. I also have the alienware OLED monitor and to me the quality is on another level. The LG brightness is so bad, same for the PPIs on windows...I eventually got back to a 49 samsung mini led for my rig, the brightness is a deal breaker
@@MRkriegs Yes and no. I am used to Samsung 23/24 ultra displays on my phone, iPad mini LED screens on tablets, etc. Looking at a very "dark" screen during the day is really bad, in my opinion. Since then I moved from the samsung 49 to the 57 and especially for Sim Racing there is nothing better than that (unless you go crazy with triple setups)
This display needs a 5120x2160 resolution. I'd also prefer a proper MiniLED display for mixed productivity usage. Even my 38" monitor has a higher resolution. 😒
I need a monitor for my ps5 and mac 40 inch + ultrawide any suggestions? I have been looking for g9 Samsung OLED and this lg monitor and idk which to get as the problem with g9 is that I won’t get 240hz with mac I can only get 120 btw price range is no problem And most ppl say ppi of this lg monitor is not that good
It's really not that bad having a matte screen but like I mentioned in the review it would be interesting it the had an option to purchase with a glossy screen.
I bought this monitor when it was on sale for around 1k, and i can say it's been amazing its welll worth it. Imagine quality is phenomenal. I'd highly recommend
The ''Cinema 1'' Screen Input Option should allow you to zoom a PS5\16:9 signal to max out your 21:9 screen, without stretching the image... You'll simply need to readjust the PS5 screen borders(reduce the area - probably to it's smallest)to compensate... Let me know when & how good it works... =]
@@GeekStreet Yes good... 1. Watch a 21:9 movie\show on the PS5 & see if it zooms properly 2. Go to settings & reduce the display area(if it's not small enough to kill the borders - I just checked my PS4 - we may be able to ask Sony to increase the range to -75%) 3. It's meant to work with games & getting 21:9 movies trapped in a16:9 format to properly fit an Ultrawide - normal Input Modes should be used with regular 16:9 video... O.O
I brought this monitor around the end of last month and no issues at all with it. Like I've mentioned in the review there is burn in protected so in general it should be fine.
OLED 45 thinking of picking this one up to replace my 34" AOC CU34G2X im a flightsim enthusiast and also play FPS and a 21:9 ratio is perfect for both where a 32:9 would be too much for fps
Its 240hz so you need to stay 1440p to ever reach 240fps. We don't have cards yet the run all games at 4k at 240fps. Dude this monitor is amazing trust you will love it.
It's a 1440p stretched monitor aimed at PC gamers , with that resolution It's no suprise the PPI is low but on the flip side if it was 2160p monitor so a stretched 4K monitor most peoples pc's wouldn't be able to handle it so this is why they went with it.
@@GeekStreet i played various games on it. The only one that felt good were racing games. Cp 2077 looked like absolute washed eyecan***. I see your argumentation. But maybe some producrs just shoud not exist... Looking forward the new 4k 32inch qdoleds, 2024 will bring us...
"OLED 45"Hello geek street l am not trying to annoy you or stress you but asking for you to hear me out l leave in Uganda 🇺🇬 Africa where the cost of living is very high and my family is not rich so so they can't afford to buy me a ps5 thats way it am asking for your kindness your kindness please send me a ps5 coz my family can't afford it, it is fully up to you. if you can't afford to help me it okay, but if you do it will mean the world to me you will have changed my life and God will bless you for your kindness 🙏❤️ OLED 45
I'm guessing this resolution is more suitable for most PCs, having a PC that supports higher resolution at that ratio will probably cost you an arm and a leg.
Ppi and ppi, 45qre have the same ppi as 55 4K tv , 65 4K have lower dpi as this 45 lg and people steel have fun plays in These tv. I have 45qre and this is the best monitor what i tested. Ppi is not a problem in any games. Look at 55 lg 4K I play too with this tv but 1440p and steel look good, not perfect but good. 1440p in 55 inch !!! Common bro.
@@tomaszrzeznik3444 not a problem in games? 1080p is not a problem if you look at it like that. If you want a monitor that feels high end you need much higher res at this size. I'm on the 34 Alienware OLED and I sat in front of this 45 inch at a store searching something. First.. Way too curved then I was thinking the contrast looks pretty good .. Way too good for such a big low res cheap monitor... Then I realized this was the 45 inch 1440p OLED. It looked so soft I seriously thought it was some $400 unit. (it was just windows browsing online for 2 mins so didn't test games therefore didn't see contrast properly as I would of picked up it's OLED with blacks instantly. It felt like those 32inch 1080p monitors we used to see. Zero imagine quality just size.
@@philipbroberg762people forking out £1600 for this monitor probably already have "arm and a leg" gaming computers. I would love to see this monitor in person tbh, I honestly dont know if the poor PPI would actually bother me that much lol.

Yes but you get the same screen size it's just curved
The fact tha it is an OLED, high refresh rate and 1440p its awesome... The lack of a KVM, USB-C, speakers its disappointing tho.
My wife bought this for me a couple of months ago and I freaking love this thing! Anime and gaming looks great on PS5.

Do U Know If This Works Fine With PS5 ??
Best ratio for computer is 21:9

Yah I'm interested in the higher refresh rate LG on their OLED roadmap
Supposedly a 5120x2160 version of this is on the roadmap for end of this year or beginning of next year.
That would be awesome 👌
Have fun running any game at that resolution near 240fps even with a 4090.
