From Tom's Hardware: LG hopes to wow the crowds at CES 2025 with what it claims to be the "world's first bendable 5K2K gaming monitor." The new model is dubbed the 45GX990A and will be one of several UltraGear GX9 series monitors to grace its exhibition. A key feature of this particular 45-inch monitor is its 5,120 x 2,160 pixel 21:9 aspect ratio OLED display, which can flex from a perfectly flat form to a curvy immersive 900R.
As a pre-launch pre-CES reveal, we don't have the entire specification sheet for the LG Ultragear GX9 45GX990A at the time of writing. However, LG has spilled more than enough details in its press release to whet a tech lover's appetite.
OLED panels are generally well-regarded by PC users nowadays, and this one comes with quite a few interesting enhancements. LG says it employs its "advanced WOLED technology" here, delivering high brightness, true blacks, stunning colors, low blue light emissions, and reduced eye strain. Furthermore, the 45GX990A features LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection (AGLR) coating in the hope of banishing uncomfortable and unwanted reflections and screen glare.
The cherry on the cake here is that LG's ultra-high 5K2K resolution (5,120 x 2,160 pixels, 125ppi) display is also flexible, and the design makes good use of it. LG's PR says that this 45-incher "can smoothly transition from completely flat to a 900R curvature within seconds," suggesting some kind of mechanization. We must say 900R is a rather tight curve based on an arc segment from a 900mm radius.
