FAQ

Q.

Why does resolution matter, and what should I consider when choosing it?

A.

Resolution refers to the number of pixels that make up the screen, and a higher resolution can display a sharper, more detailed image. When high resolution is combined with generous screen space, you can view more information clearly on a single screen.

Q.

What is refresh rate, and why does it matter?

A.

Refresh rate is the number of times a monitor refreshes the image each second. A higher refresh rate displays the next frame faster, making motion look smoother and helping you track targets more accurately in fast-moving scenes.

Q.

Why does response time matter?

A.

Response time is how long it takes a pixel on the screen to change color. A faster response time reduces afterimages and ghosting, helping object outlines appear more clearly.

Q.

What is HDR, and how does it affect picture quality?

A.

HDR improves picture quality by expanding contrast and color range beyond a standard display. It provides deeper shadows, brighter highlights, richer colors, and more detail for a more vivid image.

Q.

What sets OLED panels apart from other panel types?

A.

OLED displays show colors vividly and maintain a bright, clear image even in dark environments, supported by high typical brightness and peak brightness. High pixel density (PPI) and an improved subpixel structure help render small text clearly, making OLED suitable for document work and web browsing as well.

 

*This feature is based on the specifications of the model 45GX950A.

Q.

What is VRR, and why does it matter?

A.

VRR syncs a game's refresh rate with the display in real time to reduce screen tearing and stuttering. NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync are common examples, helping create smoother, more immersive gameplay. VRR is supported in the 60Hz to 165Hz range, and actual performance may vary depending on settings and usage environment.

 

*VRR ranges from 60 Hz to 165 Hz and is a certified specification of HDMI 2.1. Actual performance may vary depending on settings, network connection, and usage environment.

Q.

Can I use webOS on a monitor?

A.

Yes. On LG monitors with webOS, you can access a range of apps and content including Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube, Apple TV, and LG Channels. You can also receive personalized content recommendations, explore apps such as Sports, Game, and LG Fitness, and control everything easily with a remote. Built-in streaming services and apps may vary by country, and an internet connection and some paid subscriptions may be required.
