LG TO INTRODUCE HDR COMPATIBLE 4K MONITORS AT CES 2017

SEOUL, December 14, 2016 — Already an industry leader renowned for
integrating cutting-edge technology into its premium, high-resolution monitors,
LG Electronics (LG) is pushing the industry to the next level with plans to introduce
a HDR-compatible 32-inch UHD 4K monitor at the 2017 Consumer Electronics Show
(CES) in Las Vegas next month.

The availability
of HDR content continues to expand, covering a wide range of fields from movie
to games. The enhanced picture quality offered by HDR technology is instantly
recognizable to even the most casual user and manufacturers are already pushing
this promising technology to its fullest potential. With professional-grade
picture quality and exceptionally vibrant colors, HDR compatible monitors will
appeal to creative professionals, gamers, and anyone else that takes image
quality seriously.

To stay one step
ahead of the rapid proliferation of HDR content, LG’s 32-inch UHD 4K monitor
(model 32UD99) with 3840 x 2160 pixels supports the HDR10 standard, which delivers
enhanced brightness levels and a wide color gamut image.
Compatibility with the HDR10 standard increases the monitor’s peak brightness, enabling
users to edit movies and photographs much more comfortably.

In addition, the
32UD99 is equipped with an IPS panel and displays over 95 percent of the DCI-P3
color space, making it ideal for media content creators of all expertise who
will appreciate features such as True Color Pro for color reproduction
accuracy unmatched in the industry. With
the recent introduction of a new generation of HDR capable game consoles, the
32UD99 is well-equipped to meet the increasing demands of players world over as
HDR gaming becomes the new standard in home entertainment.

Along with its
elegant, stunning profile, the 32UD99 turns heads even when powered off. The
monitor’s USB Type-C port minimizes the number of unsightly cables while its borderless
edges and slim ArcLine stand complete its refined image.
Requiring only a single cable to stream images to a 4K display, charge a connected
laptop and execute data transfers simultaneously, the 32UD99 is
able to reduce cable clutter, which adds to its streamlined appearance. And the
monitor’s built-in speakers pack a punch with LG’s Rich Bass technology for a full-bodied audio
experience.

At CES 2017, LG will also be showcasing the 34-inch 21:9 UltraWide™ Mobile+ Monitor (model
34UM79M). The 34UM79M is the world’s first
Chromecast-enabled multimedia monitor, allowing users to seamlessly stream their
favorite movies, music, games and more from mobile devices directly to the monitor. And LG’s
UltraWide monitor allows owners to simultaneously
multitask between the PC and the mobile
device using a single screen. Similarly, the Dual Controller Plus feature allows users to control both a PC
and a smartphone/tablet via a single keyboard and mouse. What’s more, the LG Mobile+
Monitor application allows for
the control of
many of the monitor’s settings such as input, volume, aspect ratio, PBP/PIP, etc.
remotely
and conveniently.

Also on display in
Las Vegas alongside LG’s UltraFine™ 5K and 4K displays will be LG’s 34-inch
21:9 UltraWide gaming monitor (model 34UC99), equipped with AMD FreeSync
technology, 1ms Motion Blur Reduction, Dynamic Action Sync, Black Stabilizer
and other features to maximize the PC gaming experience.

“To maintain our market leadership, LG engineers work
tirelessly to incorporate emerging technologies and trends into our newest
monitors,” said Brian Kwon, president of the LG Home Entertainment Company.
“From high-resolution displays compatible with HDR technology to UltraWide monitors
optimized for multitasking and gaming, LG is committed to delivering the most
innovative, premium monitors in the industry today.”
