After what feels like years of begging, LG has finally introduced its OLED technology into the monitor market for desktop users who are seeking the highest visual quality in a smaller format. Announced during today’s CES 2021 event, the UltraFine 32EP950 is a 31.5-inch display with a 3840 x 2160 (4K) OLED panel that boasts all of the usual perks of the technology, such as an incredible 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, perfect blacks, and 99 percent DCI-P3/Adobe RGB coverage.
LG hasn’t shared a press release yet elaborating on the UltraFine OLED Pro 32EP950’s complete specifications, but it did publish a teaser video that confirms some of its connectivity options, which comprise 2x DisplayPort (presumably 1.4), 1x HDMI (2.0?), 1x USB Type-C (90-watt power delivery), and 3x USB. The monitor will also include a KVM switch for extended control.
Unfortunately, it isn’t clear how good the UltraFine OLED Pro 32EP950 might be for gaming purposes because its refresh rate is unknown. We’re also afraid of what the monitor will end up costing—if it’s anywhere near as expensive as we think it is, users might be better off just getting one of LG’s OLED TVs, space permitting.
