LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitors were announced on Friday, refreshing the South Korean company's monitor lineup aimed at professionals. The South Korean tech giant launched its first LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitor earlier this year, featuring a 31.5-inch display with a 4K resolution and 99 percent DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB gamut coverage. The company has announced that the new models will include a new 27-inch variant and come with the same monitor hoods and calibration sensors as their predecessor. LG also announced that it would launch a new lineup of audio products at CES, including a soundbar with 810W output and IMAX Enhanced Audio.
According to LG, the upcoming LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitors will come in 31.5-inch and 27-inch screen sizes and offer a 4K UHD (3,840x2,160 pixels) resolution. They offer a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and boast 99 percent Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 colour space coverage. These monitors are aimed at professionals who require a sharp colour accuracy while working.
The new LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitors are equipped with detachable self-calibration sensors and monitor hoods, just like the first LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitor which was launched earlier this year with a price tag of $3,999 (roughly 3.04 lakh).
The upcoming LG UltraFine OLED Pro models will feature the same connectivity features as their predecessor, including a USB Type-C port for a 90W power supply. They come with three upstream ports and two HDMI downstream display ports.
LG says that the monitors have a 1ms response time and come with support for OLED Pixel Dimming HDR and DisplayHDR 400 True Black, which should help display colours accurately.
The company says that LG UltraFine OLED Pro monitors will be available in “key markets” starting January 2022 but has not yet revealed pricing details yet.
Ahead of CES 2022, LG has also announced a new premium soundbar, which the company says is part of its upcoming lineup of audio products which will debut at the annual trade show. LG S95QR soundbar will feature 810W audio output and 9.1.5-channel audio. According to the company, the high-end soundbar is designed for home cinemas with support for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X content, and it also meets IMAX Enhanced standards.
The new LG S95QR soundbar is equipped with upward-firing speakers — three located on the soundbar and two more on separate rear speakers. It supports variable refresh rate (VRR) and supports auto low latency mode (ALLM) aimed at console gamers. The S95QR soundbar comes with support mixing two-channel audio to 7.1 channels using Meridian Audio's Horizon technology, according to LG.
The soundbar also comes with voice command support via Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and other assistants. The soundbar can also be wirelessly connected to a TV with the company's Wowcast Wi-Fi audio dongle, according to LG. The company has not yet revealed pricing for the LG S95QR soundbar
