The text clarity is fantastic. Fringing is very minimal and isn't visible to some. This is at least partly due to the monitor's RGWB subpixel layout. These photos are in Windows 10, and you can also see them in Windows 11 with ClearType on and with ClearType off.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the Sony INZONE M10S are both OLED gaming monitors with a maximum refresh rate of 480Hz. The Sony is the better option for dedicated esports gamers, as it's smaller and has a higher 1440p resolution at 480Hz compared to the LG's 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode. However, the LG is the better option for people who want a more immersive experience, as it has a larger screen with a more detailed 4k @ 240Hz mode.

Although the LG 32GS95UE-B is great for office work, it has some limitations. Its wide viewing angles and great ergonomics make sharing your screen with someone else easy. Additionally, it has fantastic text clarity, unlike some other OLEDs. However, while it works well with a few lights, it doesn't get bright enough to fight strong glare. Additionally, it has the risk of permanent burn-in with constant exposure to the same static elements over time, which is a problem if you're only using it for office work.

There's a joystick to control the on-screen display and turn the monitor on and off. Additionally, there's a dedicated button to activate the monitor's 480Hz Dual-Mode. If you're looking for a monitor that you can control with a remote and can be used like a TV with integrated apps, check out the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8/G80SD S32DG80.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is outstanding for HDR. It displays deep and inky blacks without any blooming around bright objects. It also displays a wide range of colors, though very bright colors aren't as saturated as darker ones.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM are 4k, 240Hz OLED gaming monitors. The LG is the better choice if you play esports or other fast-moving competitive games, as it has a 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode, so it's extraordinarily responsive. However, if you want a monitor with more versatility for work or better video performance, the ASUS is a better option, as it has a USB-C connection with 90W of power delivery and a KVM switch, as well as more vivid colors and Dolby Vision support.

This monitor's native resolution is 4k. However, when used in Dual-Mode, its maximum resolution is 1080p. Dual-Mode can be used in three different views: 'Full-Wide,' '27-inch,' and '24-inch.' The 'Full-Wide' mode has the sharpest image, with the '27-inch' and '24-inch' modes looking worse.

Burn-in can occur with constant exposure to the same static elements over time, so the best ways to reduce the risk of burn-in is by watching varied content, hiding the taskbar, and using a black background.

While the monitor has superb gradient handling, it causes very dark grays to appear black below a certain threshold level. Increasing Black Stabilizer and Brightness can help mitigate this effect, but it does so by elevating grays above the threshold rather than eliminating the threshold itself. This occurs in both SDR and HDR. You can see this effect here.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8/G80SD S32DG80 are 4k @ 240Hz OLED monitors. If rich and immersive colors are important to you then the Samsung is the better option, as its QD-OLED display displays more vivid bright colors. The Samsung also has integrated smart apps like Netflix, so it's a great choice if you plan to use the monitor as a TV. However, if you like to play a lot of esports or fast-moving games, the LG is a better choice, as it has a special 1080p @ 480Hz dual mode that provides an exceptionally responsive feel while gaming.

The ergonomics are great, and it's easy to place in your preferred position for a long gaming session. However, its swivel range is limited, so it's not ideal if you need to turn the screen toward someone next to you. Its minimum height is also very high. The stand has a cutout for cable management.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is a fantastic gaming monitor for PC and console gamers and an outstanding choice for esports and competitive gamers. The Dual-Mode feature turns the monitor from a superb 4k @ 240Hz display into an exceptionally fast 1080p @ 480Hz display. This monitor has the fastest combined input lag and response time of any monitor we've tested, so it's an exceptional choice if you plan to play immersive games in 4k and are an esports enthusiast. However, this monitor doesn't have extra productivity features like USB-C connectivity or a KVM switch and lacks Dolby Vision support. If those things are important to you, consider the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM, which has USB-C connectivity with 90W of power delivery, a KVM switch, and Dolby Vision support.See our recommendations for the best 4k gaming monitors, the best high refresh rate monitors, and the best OLED monitors.

The accuracy after calibration is fantastic. However, even after calibration, there are notable gamma issues. Additionally, when Brightness is set to max and Peak Brightness is set to 'Off' or 'Low' the brighter parts of scenes are slightly too bright. However, if you set it to 'High' all parts of scenes are too bright, and the brightest parts of scenes are far too bright.

The LG 32GS95UE-B has great gray uniformity. However, like any OLED, there are thin gray vertical lines in dark scenes, but you won't notice them unless you look for them.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is excellent for content creation. Its large 4k screen provides a detailed workspace for editing content, and you can easily have multiple windows open at the same time. It's also great for editing content in HDR, as small highlights get bright enough to pop, and it displays a wide range of colors. However, its sRGB mode isn't as accurate as other 32-inch OLEDs, and you need to calibrate it for the best accuracy. Additionally, before calibration, dark scenes are too bright, and bright scenes are too dark, making it difficult to edit images and videos accurately. It also crushes very dark grays, which can be problematic if you're trying to edit dark, shadowy details. Finally, OLEDs like this can be prone to burn-in with constant exposure to the same static elements over time.

Note: When using a DisplayPort connection, the refresh rate of this monitor can't be set to 120Hz from either Windows settings or the NVIDIA control panel. Since we do this test with DisplayPort, these results are from using 240Hz in VRR with 120 fps content. The results are very similar to using the monitor at 120Hz with HDMI.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is outstanding for PC gaming. It has a near-instantaneous response time that results in crisp motion and low input lag for a responsive feel. Its near-infinite contrast ratio and perfect black uniformity are ideal for dark room gaming, as blacks look deep and inky. It also has a 240Hz refresh rate, so motion looks extremely crisp, and it feels very responsive. Additionally, this monitor has a 480Hz Dual-Mode, which is outstanding for esports and competitive gaming. One downside is its noticeable VRR flicker in dark scenes with changing frame rates, which is disappointing if your PC doesn't maintain consistent frame rates in a game.

Both have very similar performance, including a special 1080p @ 480Hz mode for esports and other fast-paced games. The ASUS has a flicker reduction system, so you may prefer it if you're bothered by VRR flicker, as well as a KVM switch and 90W of power delivery, so it's a better choice if you plan to use it for some office work. However, if these things aren't important to you then the LG is a great option.

The SDR color gamut is superb. It displays all colors in the common sRGB color space and a wide range of colors in the Adobe RGB color space, which is sometimes used for photo editing. That said, some colors are off in Adobe RGB, and it oversaturates red.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is a flat 32-inch, 4k gaming monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate. As a part of LG's UltraGear gaming lineup, it sits alongside other OLED monitors, like the LG 27GS95QE-B and the LG 34GS95QE-B, both of which have a lower 1440p resolution. It also uses Micro Lens Array+ (MLA+) technology that allows it to get brighter than other OLEDs. It competes with several other 32-inch OLED monitors, like the Dell Alienware AW3225QF and the Gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P, though both of those are QD-OLEDs, and the LG is a WOLED. Its stand-out feature is its 480Hz Dual-Mode, which lets the monitor operate at an extremely high refresh rate with a reduced 1080p resolution. It comes with features you'd expect to find in a premium gaming monitor, like FreeSync and G-SYNC compatibility and HDMI 2.1 bandwidth.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the LG 27GX790A-B are OLED gaming monitors with maximum refresh rates of 480Hz. The 32GS95UE-B offers a more immersive experience, with a larger screen and a more detailed 4k @ 240Hz mode.

The Sony is the better option for dedicated esports gamers, as it's smaller and has a higher 1440p resolution at 480Hz compared to the LG's 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode. However, the LG is the better option for people who want a more immersive experience, as it has a larger screen with a more detailed 4k @ 240Hz mode.

The creation of a product from ideation to fruition requires rigorous testing and evaluation so that when launched, it is a cut above the rest.

The accuracy after calibration is fantastic. However, even after calibration, there are notable gamma issues. Additionally, when Brightness is set to max and Peak Brightness is set to 'Off' or 'Low' the brighter parts of scenes are slightly too bright. However, if you set it to 'High' all parts of scenes are too bright, and the brightest parts of scenes are far too bright.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the Dell Alienware AW3225QF are 4k, 240Hz OLED gaming monitors. The Dell is the better choice if you're looking for an immersive gaming or video experience, as it has more vivid colors and Dolby Vision support. However, the LG is the better choice if you play esports or other fast-moving competitive games, as it has a 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode that provides an exceptionally responsive feel while gaming.

The MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED and the LG 32GS95UE-B are both 4k OLEDs. The MSI is a better option if you play a lot of immersive games, as it has more vivid colors. However, the LG is a better option if you're a competitive gamer, as it has a 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode with extremely low input lag.

The Gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P and the LG 32GS95UE-B are 4k, 240Hz OLED gaming monitors. The Gigabyte is the better choice if you're looking for a monitor with productivity features, as it has USB-C support with 65W of power delivery and a KVM switch. The Gigabyte is also the better option if you're looking for an immersive video or gaming experience, as it has more vivid colors. However, the LG is a better choice if you play a lot of highly competitive games, as it has a 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode for an exceptionally responsive feel while gaming.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is a flat 32-inch, 4k gaming monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate. As a part of LG's UltraGear gaming lineup, it sits alongside other OLED monitors, like the LG 27GS95QE-B and the LG 34GS95QE-B, both of which have a lower 1440p resolution. It also uses Micro Lens Array+ (MLA+) technology that allows it to get brighter than other OLEDs. It competes with several other 32-inch OLED monitors, like the Dell Alienware AW3225QF and the Gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P, though both of those are QD-OLEDs, and the LG is a WOLED. Its stand-out feature is its 480Hz Dual-Mode, which lets the monitor operate at an extremely high refresh rate with a reduced 1080p resolution. It comes with features you'd expect to find in a premium gaming monitor, like FreeSync and G-SYNC compatibility and HDMI 2.1 bandwidth.

The CAD at the maximum refresh rate in Dual-Mode is outstanding. It displays fast-moving objects as intended, and motion is extremely sharp.

The LG 32GS95UE-B and the LG 27GX790A-B are OLED gaming monitors with maximum refresh rates of 480Hz. The 32GS95UE-B offers a more immersive experience, with a larger screen and a more detailed 4k @ 240Hz mode. However, the 27GX790A-B is a better option for competitive gamers, as it can reach a higher 1440p resolution at its maximum refresh rate of 480Hz.

The backlight isn't technically flicker-free because it has a slight brightness dip corresponding to the 240Hz refresh rate. However, it isn't considered pulse-width modulation like on LED-backlit monitors because it isn't a full-screen on-and-off flicker, and you won't notice it.

The LG 32GS95UE-B has a few extra additional features, including:Crosshair: Adds a virtual crosshair that your system won't detect.DTS Virtual:X: Simulates surround sound audio on the speakers.FPS Counter: Displays the frame rate of your source. Like most OLED displays, there are also a few settings to help reduce the risk of burn-in:OLED Image Cleaning: Runs a complete image refresh cycle after four hours of use and starts when you turn the monitor off or enter the power saving mode. It takes about 10 minutes to finish.OLED Screen Move: Moves the image by a few pixels to one side to help reduce the risk of burn-in.OLED Screen Saver: Automatically turns the screen off when there's inactivity. Burn-in can occur with constant exposure to the same static elements over time, so the best ways to reduce the risk of burn-in is by watching varied content, hiding the taskbar, and using a black background.

The LG 32GS95UE-B works well with the Xbox Series X|S, except you need to use the console's HDMI override setting for 1440p @ 60Hz to work, which disables VRR. The Xbox doesn't support HDR with 1080p or 1440p signals, so that isn't an issue with the monitor.

The MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED and the LG 32GS95UE-B are both 4k OLEDs. The MSI is a better option if you play a lot of immersive games, as it has more vivid colors. However, the LG is a better option if you're a competitive gamer, as it has a 1080p @ 480Hz Dual-Mode with extremely low input lag.

The LG 32GS95UE-B has a simple yet sleek design that's different from most previously released LG UltraGear monitors but similar to the LG 34GS95QE-B. Its understated appearance fits well into an office or gaming environment.

Because this monitor has a WOLED display, text looks different than on 32-inch QD-OLED monitors like the Dell Alienware AW3225QF and the Gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P, as you can see here.

The LG 32GS95UE-B is fantastic for console gaming. It has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and perfect compatibility with the PS5 and the Xbox Series X|S. Because of its near instantaneous response time, it delivers a very crisp image, and its low input lag creates a responsive feel. It also displays deep blacks in a dark room, so it's great if you're gaming in a darker environment.
