LG has launched its UltraGear 27G850A gaming monitor in the US and UK, following earlier releases in China, Japan, and Europe. The monitor, now available exclusively via Amazon, targets high-end gamers with cutting-edge specs and adaptive display technologies.
LG Ultragear 27G850A features
The 27G850A features a Nano IPS Black panel from LG.Display, offering a 2000:1 contrast ratio, which is twice that of standard IPS panels. It includes a dual-mode function that allows switching between 4K at 240Hz and 1080p at 480Hz. In 480Hz mode, the active screen size is reduced to 24 inches.
The monitor supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, NVIDIA G-Sync Compatibility, and VESA AdaptiveSync. It has a 1ms GtG response time, 10-bit color depth, and covers 99% of the DCI-P3 color space. Peak brightness is 670 nits for HDR and 450 nits for SDR. Hardware-level color calibration is also included.
While the monitor includes DisplayPort 2.1, it is limited to UHBR13.5 (54Gbps) bandwidth, which does not support uncompressed 4K at 240Hz. Additional connectivity options include two HDMI ports, a USB hub, and a DTS Headphone:X-compatible audio jack. The stand supports tilt, height, swivel, and pivot adjustments.

The LG UltraGear 27G850A is available exclusively on Amazon. It is priced at $799.99 in the US and £749.99 in the UK. The UK price includes 20% VAT, bringing the approximate cost to $971. It is listed for HK$6,980 (US$900) in Hong Kong and €899 in Europe.
