LG Introduces 2026 LG gram Lineup Elevated by Aerominum

LG Electronics (LG) will unveil its 2026 LG gram lineup at CES 2026, extending the brand's decade-long leadership in ultra-portable laptops. The new lineup debuts an ultra-light Aerominum material for a more portable, durable and premium design. The new models also prioritize productivity with advanced dual AI capabilities, combining on-device intelligence with cloud-based AI for more flexible work and creativity on the go.

The LG gram's evolution as the ultra-portable laptop is accelerated by Aerominum, a composition developed by LG. This innovative material reduces the laptop's weight while reinforcing its structural strength. The resulting chassis is built for life on the move, offering improved scratch resistance, meeting military-grade standards and ensuring long-lasting resilience for everyday use. Aerominum's aeroplate structure and refined atelier brushing deliver a sleek metallic finish, elevating the design without adding bulk.

LG Reveals its Full CES 2026 Monitor Lineup

LG has put up a sneak peek of five new monitors that it will be showing at CES next week, of which three use different types of OLED displays, one is MiniLED and one isn't entirely clear. The company already showed three of the new models around Christmas, namely the 52-inch UltraGear EVO 52G930B, the 39-inch UltraGear EVO AI 39GX950B and the 27-inch UltraGear EVO AI 27GM950B. To this, the company has now added the 32-inch UltraGear OLED 32GX870B and 27GX790B 4th gen primary RGB tandem OLED monitors. The 32GX870B sports 32-inch 4K resolution, 240 Hz with panel with dual mode at 1080p 480 Hz, a 0.03 ms GtG response time, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 and 4K AI upscaling. It will have a DP 2.1, two HDMI 2.1 and a USB-C port, the latter with 90 W USB PD charging support.

The 27GX790B is as the model name suggests, a 27-inch display, this time with a 2560x1440p resolution and a 540 Hz refresh rate that can operate at 720 Hz at 720p resolution in dual-mode. It has a 0.02 ms GtG response time, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 and ClearMR 21000 certification and the same port configuration as the 32GX870B, although there's no mention of PD charging. Both models also support 99.5 percent of the DCI-P3 colour space. The 4th gen tandem OLED panels are said to bring enhanced brightness and colour accuracy, even in bright environments, so time will tell if these will be able to compete with more traditional LCD displays in bright rooms.

LG Display to Showcases Wide Line-up of World-first, Leading OLED Monitors at CES 2026

LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, is set to rewrite industry records once again at CES 2026, the world's largest IT and consumer electronics exhibition. During the Las Vegas show from January 6 to 9, LG Display will unveil a wide lineup of technologies and products that set new records among existing Gaming OLED panels, including the world's highest refresh rate of 720 Hz and response time of 0.02 ms, the world's first 39-inch 5K2K panel, and the world's first 240 Hz panel with an RGB stripe pixel structure.

A full showcase of Gaming OLED panels with overwhelming performance—world-first refresh rate, resolution, and pixel structure
LG Display is presenting a 27-inch Gaming OLED panel at CES 2026 that achieves a refresh rate of 720 Hz—the fastest among all Gaming OLED panels currently available. Refresh rate refers to the number of times per second a screen updates, so 720 Hz means the screen refreshes 720 times per second. LG Display is the first to achieve such an ultra-high refresh rate on an OLED panel.

LG Innotek Unveils Next-Generation Under-Display Camera

LG Innotek announced its success in developing a 'Next-Generation Under-Display Camera Module (UDC)' installed behind a vehicle's instrument cluster to monitor the driver, with plans to unveil it at CES 2026. The UDC is a core component of the Driver Monitoring System (DMS), which integrates a camera and software within the vehicle to continuously monitor the driver. Mounted behind the vehicle's instrument cluster display, which serves as the dashboard, the UDC remains invisible to the driver and passengers while sensing and monitoring key status indicators such as drowsiness and attention level while on the road.

DMSs are gaining significant attention as essential safety devices to prevent careless driving, particularly as autonomous driving technologies advance. Europe now mandates DMSs in new vehicles from July 2026 under the General Safety Regulation, while the U.S., China, and Japan are considering similar requirements. The market is increasingly focusing on cameras as the core component of DMSs. The demand for invisible UDCs is thus surging, driven by the need for sophisticated, refined vehicle interior designs that prioritize seamless aesthetics, particularly in the premium and advanced autonomous vehicle segments. The invisible UDC is gaining popularity by alleviating drivers' psychological discomfort and privacy concerns associated with visible, protruding cameras in DMSs.

LG Display Unveils World's First 240Hz RGB Stripe OLED Panel

LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, announced today that it will debut the world's first 27-inch 4K OLED panel for monitors featuring an RGB stripe structure and a 240 Hz refresh rate at CES 2026, the world's largest IT and consumer electronics exhibition. The RGB stripe structure arranges the three primary color subpixels—red, green, and blue—in a straight line, significantly reducing visual distortions such as color bleeding and fringing, even at close viewing distances.

Although OLED panels using the RGB stripe method existed before, their maximum refresh rate reached around 60 Hz, making them unsuitable for use as gaming monitors. LG Display's new panel is the first in the world to achieve a 240 Hz refresh rate while maintaining an RGB stripe structure. It incorporates the company's specialized Dynamic Frequency & Resolution (DFR) technology, allowing users to directly switch between high-resolution (UHD 240 Hz) and high-refresh-rate (FHD 480 Hz) modes.
