LG Display announced on December 22, 2025 that it will debut a 27‑inch 4K OLED panel featuring an RGB‑stripe sub‑pixel arrangement and a 240 Hz refresh rate at CES 2026. The panel is the first of its kind to combine a true RGB stripe structure with a high‑refresh‑rate design, marking a significant technical milestone for the company’s OLED monitor strategy.
The new panel incorporates Dynamic Frequency & Resolution (DFR) technology, allowing it to switch between 4K at 240 Hz and full‑HD at 480 Hz. This dual‑mode capability not only delivers gaming‑grade performance but also addresses the long‑standing issue of text fringing that has limited the adoption of OLED panels in professional settings.
By offering superior text clarity and color accuracy compared to competitors that use RGWB or triangular RGB structures, LG Display positions itself to capture the growing high‑performance gaming and professional monitor market. The RGB‑stripe design eliminates the white sub‑pixel, reducing visual distortion and improving readability for both gamers and content creators.
LG Display’s management highlighted the strategic importance of the launch. Lee Hyun‑woo, Head of Large Business Division, said, “Ultimately, technological prowess is essential to leading the rapidly growing OLED monitor panel market. We will further strengthen our leadership in the global market by focusing on technologies that differentiate us from our competitors, technologies that our customers want, and technologies with commercial viability.” The company aims to produce roughly 30 % of global OLED monitor panels, and this panel is a key milestone in that goal.
Monitors featuring the new panel are expected to reach the market later in 2026, though pricing and peak brightness levels have not yet been disclosed. Samsung Display’s QD‑OLED and TCL CSOT are also developing RGB OLED panels, indicating a broader industry shift toward this technology.
The launch demonstrates LG Display’s continued innovation and could reshape the high‑end monitor segment by combining the visual quality of OLED with the performance demanded by gamers and professionals alike.
