LG Electronics (LG) is rolling out its new UltraGear evo™ GM9 5K gaming monitor (model 27GM950B) powered by Hyper Mini LED technology.
First unveiled at CES 2026, the 27GM950B reinforces LG’s commitment to delivering high-performance gaming monitors combining next-gen display technology with advanced gaming features.
LG’s latest UltraGear evo™ model meets growing demand for 5K gaming monitors offering precise, dynamic visuals. The 5K resolution (5,120 x 2,880) comes together with the company’s Hyper Mini LED technology to supply greater clarity, depth and realism, making gameplay more immersive and lifelike.
Hyper Mini LED Innovation Unlocks Brighter and Sharper Gaming Visuals and Advanced Anti-Blooming Performance
LG’s Hyper Mini LED technology employs an advanced architecture with numerous local dimming zones to provide precise light control – enabling ultra-high brightness and advanced anti-blooming performance.
Powered by Hyper Mini LED technology, the UltraGear evo™ GM9 boasts VESA DisplayHDR™ 1000 certification and peak brightness of 1,250 nits. The new gaming monitor enhances detail and contrast for sharper, dynamic visuals, helping gamers to clearly see critical in-game elements even when the gameplay is at its most intense.
Whether it is a graphically demanding AAA title or an action-packed shooter, LG’s new Hyper Mini LED technology elevates the gaming experience. Its robust brightness shines in the moments that matter most – from intense explosion scenes that surge with raw, visceral energy to starry night skies where crisp highlights emerge from deep, inky blacks.
LG’s UltraGear evo™ 5K Hyper Mini LED gaming monitor is engineered to minimise the gap between the panel and the LED backlight. This reduces light leakage and achieves a strong anti-blooming performance, suppressing the visual artifacts that can sometimes impact high-resolution Mini LED displays.
With this refined technology onboard, the 27GM950B has secured TÜV Rheinland’s Anti Blooming certification, which verifies the ability to minimise the halo effect. Powered by this technology, LG’s Hyper Mini LED monitor delivers clean, crisp visuals with accurate blacks and vivid contrast.
