LG has expanded its UltraWide monitor lineup with the launch of the 49-inch 49U950A-W. The monitor was first announced in Japan last month and has now appeared on LG’s official websites in Singapore and other regions. It is designed for professionals who need more screen space while also delivering the speed and clarity required for gaming and multimedia use.
LG UltraWide 49U950A-W Specifications
The 49U950A features a 49-inch Nano IPS display with a 3800R curvature and a 32:9 aspect ratio. Its Dual QHD resolution of 5120 × 1440 offers the equivalent workspace of two 27-inch QHD monitors combined into one. This layout gives users around 70% more pixels than a standard 32:9 Full HD panel, making it well-suited for video editing, creative projects, and multitasking with multiple data windows open at once.
The monitor offers 400 nits brightness, VESA DisplayHDR 400, and 98% DCI-P3 coverage with factory calibration for accurate colors. It also features auto brightness adjustment and TÜV Rheinland low blue light certification to reduce eye strain.
LG has equipped the 49U950A with a 144Hz refresh rate and a 5ms GtG response time. The monitor supports Nvidia G-Sync compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium, ensuring smoother gameplay with reduced stutter and tearing. It also includes gaming features such as Dynamic Action Sync, Black Stabilizer, and a crosshair overlay, making it a versatile option for both productivity and play.
In terms of connectivity, the monitor offers 2 HDMI, 1 DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB-C port with 90W power delivery, along with 2 USB downstream, 1 upstream, and a headphone jack. It also features built-in 10W stereo speakers.
For productivity, the monitor includes a KVM switch for controlling multiple PCs with a single keyboard and mouse, along with the LG Switch app for screen management and multitasking with PBP and PIP modes. The stand supports height, tilt, and swivel adjustments, and the monitor is compatible with 100 × 100 VESA wall mounts.
