Panel26.5-inch (27-inch class) OLED, 16:9

The actual viewable diagonal is 26.5 inches.

LG
27-inch (68.5 cm) IPS; 1920 × 1080; 16:9; pixel pitch 0.3108 mm

A 0.31 mm pixel pitch works out to about 82 ppi at 27 inches. Viewing angles are 178°/178°.

LG
Resolution and pixel pitch2560 × 1440 (QHD); 0.2292 mm pixel pitch

QHD at 27 inches means lower pixel density than 4K; small text looks less crisp but high frame rates are easier to reach on the GPU.

LG
—
Refresh rate480 Hz

480 Hz means up to 480 frames per second; seeing that benefit requires the game and GPU to deliver close to 480 fps.

LG
—
Response time0.03 ms (GtG)

Grey-to-grey pixel transition time; it is not input lag.

LG
—
BrightnessTypical 275 cd/m² (min 250); HDR peak at 1.5% APL typical 1,300 cd/m² (min 1,040)

1,300 nits applies only to small highlights covering 1.5% of the screen; on a full white screen OLED automatic brightness limiting kicks in.

LG
—
Contrast1,500,000:1 (typical)

OLED pixels can switch fully off, so black level is near zero; LG’s page notes the figure is measured at 25% APL.

LG

ColourDCI-P3 98.5% (CIE 1976); 10-bit (1.07 billion colours)

The sheet lists a paper calibration report in the box.

Variable refreshVESA AdaptiveSync; NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible; AMD FreeSync Premium Pro

Variable refresh matches the panel to the GPU frame rate to reduce tearing and stutter. LG’s page also lists VESA ClearMR 21000 certification.

LG
NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible; AMD FreeSync Premium

Variable refresh matches the monitor’s refresh rate to the graphics card’s frame rate to reduce tearing and stutter.

PowerExternal adapter, 100–240 V; under 0.5 W in sleep, under 0.3 W off

The sheet does not list typical power consumption.

LG
External adapter; 45 W typical, 48 W maximum; under 0.5 W in sleep LG
Burn-in careOLED Care

LG says the feature helps prevent burn-in from static high-contrast images left on screen for long periods but may not prevent all image retention.

Refresh and response—Up to 240 Hz; 1 ms (GtG, in Faster mode)

LG quotes 1 ms for grey-to-grey transitions at the fastest overdrive setting. Dynamic Action Sync aims to reduce input lag, and Black Stabilizer brings out detail in dark scenes.

LG
Brightness and contrast—400 cd/m² typical (minimum 320); 1000:1 typical contrast (minimum 700:1) LG
Colour and HDR—99% sRGB typical (minimum 95%, CIE1931); 16.7 million colours; HDR10; factory calibrated
