Outstanding and Superior

This is my first curved monitor and what better way of introductory to one, than being an OLED from LG! Ecstatic doesn't even come close to my feelings. It makes everything immersive while playing games as the screen just hugs your peripheral vision all nice and snugly. I find it easier to play with a second player much more gratifying because we can see each other quicker.
I have played many different games, attached different devices like laptops, PC's, PS5, Xbox X, Raspberry Pi 400, Steam Deck, Switch and even docked my S22 Ultra and Z Fold 4. All of them have displayed at its best on the 45” monitor so beautifully! I would have liked better pixel density and a bit more brightness as I'm used to getting from the LG C2 but we might get that in the next iteration.
The blacks and the colors are simply stunning! Super nice touch on the RGB lighting especially the illumination light for the keyboard. You can connect via Display Port or HDMI and I have used both and was extremely satisfied on both displays. Every single type of media or game just looked superb and there's many settings to adjust in the GUI if you want to sample all it can do. And having a remote control makes all of that easier. It supports PBP and PIP making it a tech's dream monitor.
You can install the OnScreen Control software to check for updates but must be connected to your PC via USB upstream. You can install the Dual Controller software if you want to use 2 devices and 1 mouse/keyboard. There's many more features than meets the eye and LG's Calibration Studio software lets you calibrate color spectrums if you have a calibrator.
You can also adjust the positions by tilt, swivel or height fairly easily. OLED Care is built in and will alert you that it will run before powering down after a long play session. You can connect speakers via the optical port but I haven't received the gaming speaker as of this moment.
Overall, I'm quite impressed and taken aback on just how awesome and intuitive this 45” Curved OLED Monitor from LG is. And yes, I would definitely want this in my arsenal of devices!
