About this product
The LG UltraGear GX8 is a 31.5-inch OLED gaming monitor with 4K UHD resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. It boasts an incredibly fast 0.03ms response time and a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks and vibrant colors. Brightness is 275 cd/m². The monitor supports HDMI and DisplayPort inputs. It features a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio and is designed for gaming, offering smooth motion and high image quality.
Our take
Switching to OLED with the UltraGear GX8 has been a game-changer. The 0.03ms response time is practically instantaneous, and the 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio makes dark scenes look incredible. Colors are vivid, and motion clarity is top-notch. The 165Hz is smooth, though I wish it were higher for competitive play. Brightness at 275 cd/m² is fine indoors but could struggle in bright rooms. Also, the brown color is a bit unusual. Still, for image quality, this is a standout option.
