Premium monitor on sale

The LG UltraGear Evo AI Hyper Mini LED GM9 PC monitor is now available at a 25% discount through Darty, reducing its price from 1,199 euros to 899.99 euros. This 27-inch model is marketed as a high-end hybrid monitor suitable for both professional tasks and gaming.

High-resolution display

The monitor features a rare 5K resolution (5,120 x 2,880 pixels) on a 27-inch panel, providing extremely sharp text and images. This resolution is uncommon for such a small screen size and offers a detailed visual experience.

Advanced backlighting and color accuracy

It uses an IPS Hyper Mini-LED panel, which can reach a maximum brightness of 1,250 nits and meets the VESA Display HDR 1000 certification. The panel includes 2,304 local dimming zones and an ATW polarizing filter to reduce light leaks and maintain color accuracy from different viewing angles.

Dual Mode for flexibility

The monitor includes a Dual Mode function that allows users to switch between gaming at 5K resolution with a 165 Hz refresh rate or QHD resolution with a 330 Hz refresh rate. This feature is especially useful for games that require fast reflexes and high frame rates.

High-performance requirements

Achieving the 165 Hz refresh rate at 5K resolution requires a high-end graphics card, such as an RTX 4090 or RTX 5090. This means the monitor is best suited for users with powerful hardware to fully utilize its capabilities.

Connectivity and ergonomics

The monitor offers a range of connectivity options, including DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR 20), two HDMI 2.1 ports, and a 90W USB-C port. It also includes ergonomic adjustments for height and tilt, and can be switched to portrait mode for vertical use.

Audio and display mode limitations

The monitor includes 7W stereo speakers, but its performance in SDR mode shows some weaknesses, particularly with blooming around clear text on dark backgrounds. This can affect readability in certain scenarios.
