LG Electronics has unveiled UltraGear evo, its new premium gaming monitor brand, ahead of CES 2026. With this launch, LG pushes gaming displays beyond traditional resolution limits. The new lineup focuses on 5K and higher resolutions, while maintaining speed, clarity, and immersion across OLED, New MiniLED, and ultra-wide displays.
At the center of UltraGear evo is a major shift. LG introduces the world’s first 5K AI Upscaling technology, processed directly on the monitor. This allows high-resolution gaming without placing extra load on the GPU.

The new on-device AI solution enhances content in real time. It upscales visuals to near-5K clarity even when the original content runs at lower resolutions. This approach helps gamers experience sharper visuals without upgrading graphics cards.
Alongside upscaling, LG integrates AI Scene Optimization and AI Sound. These features adjust visuals and audio based on on-screen content. The result is a more immersive and responsive gaming experience.
