LG bets on 1000Hz gaming with a Full HD monitor, but is the payoff worth it?

LG has announced the UltraGear 25G590B, a 24.5-inch Full HD monitor with a native 1000 Hz refresh rate, marketed for esports and twitch-based FPS players. It can run at 1080p natively without dual-mode rebooting, and research suggests extreme Hz can reduce motion blur, but returns diminish on smaller screens and the price is expected to be premium. Pricing and market demand remain unclear, with potential buyers weighing the extra cost against established 240–360 Hz options.

LG Unveils 45-Inch UltraGear Evo OLED with Built-In 5K2K Upscaling

LG expands its UltraGear Evo OLED lineup with the 45-inch 45GX950B, a successor to the 45GX950A that features a 5,120×2,160 panel and 165 Hz (Dual Mode up to 330 Hz at 5,120×1,080). It includes a built-in processor that upscales any input to 5K2K and reaches up to 1,300 nits HDR (275 nits SDR); speakers are downgraded to 7 W. In Japan it lists at ¥329,800 (~$2,099) with a discount to about ¥259,800 (~$1,653) and shipments starting June 11; a May release in other markets seems unlikely.

LG’s 2026 OLED lineup adds Samsung-backed Eclipsa Audio alongside Atmos

LG: G6’s color saturation is intentional, prioritizing natural tones in Filmmaker Mode

LG says the G6 OLED TV’s colors in Filmmaker Mode are deliberately toned down compared with the G5 to deliver more natural tones, following creators’ feedback that the G5’s palette was too vibrant. The G6 is touted as up to 20% brighter (around 400 nits fullscreen vs about 331 nits for the G5 in Filmmaker Mode) with processing improvements like Alpha 11 Gen 3, Hyper Radiant Color Technology and enhanced tone mapping, plus better handling of reflections. In demonstrations, the G5 appeared more punchy in color, though the G6 offered improved highlights and reduced glare; full lab measurements are pending to confirm overall differences.
