[LG Electronics]  <\/p>\n<p>LG Electronics said Wednesday it will launch in South Korea the new LG UltraGear gaming monitor (model 25G590B), the world&#8217;s first to natively support a 1,000Hz ultra-high refresh rate at full-HD (FHD, 1920&#215;1080) resolution.<\/p>\n<p>The premium gaming monitor was designed to meet gamers&#8217; longstanding demand for both fast screen transitions and sharp image quality. It is priced at 1.49 million won ($1,080) on LG Electronics&#8217; official online brand store.<\/p>\n<p>Existing dual-mode 1,000Hz monitors required users to accept a reduction in screen size or resolution when selecting the maximum refresh rate, limiting image quality to HD (1280&#215;720) at best.<\/p>\n<p>The new model delivers a 1,000Hz ultra-high refresh rate \u2014 rendering up to 1,000 frames per second \u2014 while maintaining full-HD image quality without any resolution drop.<\/p>\n<p>In fast-paced first-person shooter games, the monitor tracks enemy movements smoothly while rendering fine details of characters, backgrounds and objects with clarity.<\/p>\n<p>An AI picture quality feature automatically detects content and optimizes display settings, while an AI sound function delivers spatial audio through headphones \u2014 including directional footstep cues \u2014 to create an immersive gaming environment.<\/p>\n<p>The stand base has been reduced by up to 49 percent compared with the previous model (25G550B), giving gamers who use wide mouse and keyboard setups more desk space.<\/p>\n<p>LG Electronics equipped the monitor with an IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel, known for wide viewing angles and strong color reproduction. The company also incorporated Motion Blur Reduction Pro (MBR) technology, which minimizes afterimages to make fast-moving objects easier to track.<\/p>\n<p>The gaming monitor market has seen rapidly growing demand for high-performance premium equipment, driven by the rising popularity of esports.<\/p>\n<p>LG UltraGear held the top market share in South Korea&#8217;s gaming monitor segment as of the first quarter of this year. According to global market research firm IDC, the global gaming monitor market is projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 6.4 percent through 2030, while the domestic market is expected to expand by about 15 percent over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>Lee Chung-hwan, executive vice president and head of LG Electronics&#8217; display business division, said the new product &#8220;captures both refresh rate and image quality \u2014 the core elements gamers demand \u2014 and will set a new standard for gaming displays.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>joze@heraldcorp.com<\/p>\n<p>This content was produced with the assistance of AI translation services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The new LG UltraGear gaming monitor (model 25G590B), the world&#8217;s first to simultaneously deliver a 1,000Hz ultra-high refresh&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":132624,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[621],"tags":[315,357],"class_list":["post-132623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lg-electronics","tag-lg","tag-lg-electronics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132623\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/132624"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
