Best home entertainment from LG

LG is one of the biggest brands when it comes to electronics. Whether refrigerator, washing machine, smartphone or home theater – the South Korean company stands for elegance, performance and quality. Laptops, computer accessories and of course monitors are also part of their product range. Whether you want a large screen, speed or ergonomic variety, LG has a screen for every area that will deeply satisfy its users.

LG’s UltraGear series mainly caters to gamers who expect a brilliant picture and speed. However, users who primarily rely on a 4K resolution or expect a screen size of up to 49 inches of the UltraWide series will also get their money’s worth. Here you can find the best LG monitors at a glance.

      In the 48-inch size, you can now also put the small giant on your desk and enjoy the OLED picture quality up close. Infinite contrast, perfect black and of course a wide viewing angle, which makes multiplayer games on one screen no problem.

      In addition, the TV offers a low response time, 120Hz, as well as FreeSync and G-Sync support. With four HDMI 2.1 ports, there is no need for annoying plugging and you can experience 4K gaming @ 120Hz.
