LG is set to release its first OLED gaming monitor as part of its UltraGear range later this year.

The 48-inch LG 48GQ900 will feature a WOLED panel with 4K resolution and a 10-bit colour HDR display. Unlike LG's OLED TVs, it will also have an anti-glare low reflection coating on the screen.

While it's not yet known how many inputs the 48GQ900 will offer, LG has confirmed it will include DisplayPort and HDMI 2.1 ports supporting VRR (variable refresh rate) and 4K@120Hz signals from the PS5, Xbox Series X and high-end gaming PCs.

The LG 48GQ900 will launch during the second half of this year, with pricing and full specifications available closer to the time.
