Flexible monitors have been in development for some time, but the concept has only recently started to arrive in consumer-level products. The newly announced LG’s Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor represents the first of its kind for gamers, delivering exceptional immersion and performance and picking up three prestigious awards at CES 2025.
LG’s Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor uses a revolutionary curved display to draw players into the gaming experience. It presents games with deep, true blacks combined with high brightness. Fully certified for low blue-light emissions to maximize eye comfort during lengthy gaming sessions, it’s been designed to keep eye strain to a minimum.
Another first for OLED monitors, LG’s Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor delivers ultra-high 5K2K resolution technology. It is presented in a wider aspect ratio than traditional 16:9 monitors, opting instead for 21:9 for a wider field of vision. This additional width lends it to various applications beyond gaming, giving users additional visual real estate for managing workflows and complex projects.
The bendable design of LG’s Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor, which can smooth it into a flat surface, also makes it optimal for viewing movies. It transforms back to curved from flat in a few seconds. Likewise, the Dual Mode feature makes switching between refresh rates and resolutions simple, depending on the nature of the games being played.
With full support for DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C and up to eight customizable configurations, LG’s Bendable 5K2K Gaming Monitor is a versatile monitor for gaming and much more.
