LG’s latest UltraGear OLED evo gaming monitor is making a strong first impression, and it’s easy to see why. The new 39-inch UltraGear 39GX950B is positioned for players and creators who want a big-screen OLED experience with punchy color, high brightness potential in HDR, and a premium build that fits into serious desk setups.
On the picture-quality side, LG says the UltraGear 39GX950 reaches up to 335 nits in SDR mode and covers 99% of the DCI-P3 color space. That wide gamut coverage is great news for anyone who cares about rich, accurate colors in games, films, and creative work. HDR performance is where this display aims to stand out even more. LG claims it can hit up to 1,500 nits in HDR in small highlight areas (1.5% APL), which is the kind of peak brightness meant for intense specular highlights like reflections, neon lighting, or explosions. For larger bright scenes, LG also notes around 600 nits in HDR across a 10% APL window, which can help HDR content look more consistently impactful rather than only shining in tiny highlights.
Pricing is already drawing attention. Amazon is currently listing the LG UltraGear OLED evo 39GX950B for $1,558.07, reflecting a 13% discount. By comparison, it’s still priced at $1,799 on LG’s US store, making Amazon the better option right now for buyers in the United States.
As for availability, Amazon estimates shipping in the US between May 2 and May 8. At the moment, similar price drops for the same 39-inch UltraGear gaming monitor don’t appear to be widely available in other markets, so US shoppers are the ones seeing the most immediate value.
For anyone shopping for a large OLED gaming monitor with strong DCI-P3 coverage and ambitious HDR brightness claims, the LG UltraGear 39GX950B is shaping up to be one of the more interesting new options—especially while the current discount lasts.
