DUBAI, UAE, July, 2026 – LG Electronics LG is redefining the boundaries of display technology. To match the lightning-fast speeds of next-generation hardware, LG is setting a new standard for premium visual performance with the release of its newest UltraGear™ OLED. In a major breakthrough, this particular UltraGear™ is officially the world’s first monitor to achieve VESA ClearMR 21000 certification – the highest tier of motion clarity ever defined by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA).

Designed for elite competitive gamers, eSports professionals, and content creators who demand zero lag and visual fidelity, this 27-inch monitor integrates a hyper-responsive 480Hz refresh rate, absolute precision OLED technology, and next-generation connectivity into a sleek, immersive package.

Elevating Motion Clarity to the Absolute Peak:

The newly established VESA ClearMR 21000 tier represents the absolute peak of front-of-screen performance, where VESA’s ClearMR program measures motion blur using the Clear Motion Ratio, calculating the ratio of clear pixels to blurry pixels. To secure a ClearMR 21000 rating, a monitor must achieve a monumental clear-to-blurry pixel ratio of 1,950% to 2,250%.

By earning this certification, the LG UltraGear™ OLED quite simply guarantees practically non-existent motion blur, delivering the smoothest and clearest motion rendering currently possible on a consumer display. And by perfecting the relationship between speed and clarity, LG is delivering flawless motion tracking during intense gaming sessions, giving players a critical, blur-free competitive edge.

No-Compromise Engineering: Built for Competitive Domination

At the heart of the UltraGear™ OLED is LG’s self-lit OLED panel technology, featuring Micro Lens Array+ for exceptional brightness and unmatched contrast. Unlike traditional LCDs that rely on a backlight, every single pixel controls its own light, yielding deep, perfect blacks, a static contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1, and cinematic color accuracy of 98.5% DCI-P3.

To complement its unrivaled motion clarity, the monitor pairs a 480Hz refresh rate with a near-instantaneous 0.03ms GtG response time, where ghosting and smearing are completely eliminated, ensuring that competitive gamers can react instantly to in-game elements with pinpoint accuracy. Additionally, with built-in support for NVIDIA® G-SYNC® Compatible and AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro, screen tearing and stutter are relegated to the past.

Next-Generation Connectivity and Professional Ergonomics:

Understanding the demands of modern setups, LG equipped the new UltraGear™ OLED with future-proof DisplayPort 2.1 connectivity, allowing the monitor to handle massive high-resolution, high-refresh-rate data pipelines effortlessly at QHD (2560 x 1440) resolution. It also features dual HDMI 2.1 inputs and a dedicated 4-pole headphone jack supporting DTS Headphone:X spatial audio, guaranteeing gamers get a rich, three-dimensional acoustic experience.

To protect competitive players during long, intense training sessions, the display additionally incorporates Anti-Glare & Low Reflection technology, dramatically reducing screen glare and minimizing eye strain, with the sleek, hexagonal-backlit design and fully adjustable stand supporting height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments, promising perfect ergonomic positioning for any gaming desk or studio environment.
