LG, GLOBAL LEADER IN 21:9 ASPECT MONITORS, TO UNVEIL LATEST INNOVATIVE LINEUP AT IFA

SEOUL,
August. 30, 2016 — LG Electronics (LG), the industry leader in wide 21:9
aspect monitors for three consecutive years, is prepared to unveil two new 21:9
UltraWideTM monitors
at IFA 2016 in Berlin. The 38-inch UltraWideTM curved monitor (model
38UC99) and 144Hz IPS 21:9 Curved UltraWideTM gaming monitor (34UC79G)
represent significant advances in display innovation. Both monitors boast classic
features that LG’s 21:9 UltraWideTM monitors have become famous for,
such as wide field of view, vivid color rendering as well as ease of usability.

Offering unrivaled screen real-estate, model 38UC99 is
ideal for tasks that require attention to details. In addition to its roomy
design, this monitor’s advanced IPS UltraWide QHD+ (3840 x 1600) resolution and
wide color gamut covering 99 percent of the sRGB color space make the 38UC99 a
natural choice for anyone who takes visual performance seriously. The monitor boasts
crystal clear immersive picture quality alongside a number of convenience enhancing
features, creating an unparalleled user experience. These factors make the
38UC99 the perfect workstation monitor for visual content creators, data crunchers
and other multitasking professionals.

As the first UltraWide™ monitor to feature a USB
Type-CTM port, the 38UC99 offers a peek at the future of
connectivity. The advanced port allows users to transmit content and data as
well as charge another device such as a smartphone or laptop at the same time, all
with single code helping eliminate clutter. The monitor also includes capabilities
to customize display options with just a few clicks of the mouse and store
customized color settings with the easy-to-use Onscreen Control software and My
Display Preset.

And the 38UC99 is just as suitable for entertainment
as it is for workplace efficiency. With two 10W built-in Bluetooth compatible speakers,
the 38UC99 offers Rich Bass audio output in the 85Hz bass range. This
impressive audio system improves the entire user experience with its deep, rich
sound. The one millisecond Motion Blur Reduction feature streamlines gameplay
by minimizing afterimages that often occur in fast-paced games..

As the world’s
first 144Hz IPS 21:9 Curved UltraWide TM gaming
monitor, the 34UC79G combines a blindingly fast refresh rate with
advanced one millisecond Motion Blur Reduction. The monitor boasts seamless
image transitions without annoying afterimages and the IPS display delivers
accurate color expression from any angle without distortion. With features such
as Black Stabilizer and Dynamic Action Sync, the 34UC79G is specifically
designed to meet the needs of today’s gamers. Black Stabilizer provides extra clear
contrast, allowing viewers to detect darker objects hidden in hard to see areas.
Dynamic Action Sync reduces input lag so that users can enjoy fast-paced gameplay
without any delays. What’s more, the inclusion of AMD FreeSyncTM
offers smooth gameplay without any stuttering or screen tearing

The monitor also offers a crosshair option which adds a
fixed target to the center of the screen to increase accuracy during FPS games
and a mouse line hook to prevent drag resistance caused by the mouse’s cable. With
the monitor’s curved shape and immersive 21:9 aspect ratio, the 34UC79G
presents a world-class gaming experience for fans of FPS, RTS or MMORPG.

34UC79G also includes a number of practical design
features fit well into gaming station setup without hindering gaming such as tilting,
adjusting the height and the mouse line hook which minimizes tangled cords.

“With tablets and smartphones at their disposal, consumers
today don’t feel shackled to their desks anymore so it’s more important than
ever that their monitors offer additional user benefits and conveniences,” said
Brian Kwon, president of LG Home Entertainment Company. “LG is the number one brand
in the 21:9 monitor space because we were first to recognize that consumers are
adopting a new way of working and playing that put them ahead of the
competition whether that’s working or playing.”

Visitors to the LG booth (Hall 18) at IFA 2016 will be
able to experience LG’s new 21:9 UltraWideTM monitors for themselves
from September 2-7.
