G to Samsung: Your
Move - LG CES 2019 #Helpful Post
ur
CES 2019 coverage is brought to you
by
the D brand grip and prism screen
protector
you can check them out at the
link
in the video description so we're
here
in the LG booth where they actually
downplayed
the kind of monitor stuff
they
were showing off they were like oh
yeah
I don't really know if we have that
much
this year but some of this stuff
even
though it's iterative improvements
is
actually a big difference over what
we've
seen before so first of all we've
got
the ultrawide monitor curve for 9 WL
9
v seen it's a lot cooler than it
sounds
so just like samsung's recent 49
inch
very very wide what are these like
32
by 9 aspect ratio yeah 32 by 9 aspect
ratio
display it's really really wide
it's
curved and it's optimized for kind
of
a combination I guess of productivity
and/or
super immersive gaming but unlike
Samsung's
instead of being limited to a
1080
vertical resolution which means
that
the entire image looked kind of
grainy
LG has gone one better and
they've
delivered a 50 120 by 1440
resolution
on this thing so the image is
much
much finer now this means for
gamers
you're gonna have a pretty hard
time
driving it because this is
effectively
kind of a shortened 5k
monitor
but frankly you won't be worried
about
that anyway because it only runs
at
60 Hertz but there's good news I was
gonna
walk out of the frame but sure we
can
work with this this is the 38 GL 950
G
and this is a whole other ball of wax
now
I had given LG a hard time in the
past
for selling gaming monitors that
didn't
have support for in videos g-sync
and
here they are their timing is
impeccable
right as Nvidia announced
that
regular adaptive sync displays can
run
G sync now LG's here with the G sync
module
in their monitor but that's not
to
say that having a g-sync module is
pointless
even now because it means that
you've
got a very very wide variable
refresh
rate window
means
you've got support for adaptive
pixel
overdrive so you're not gonna get
more
or less smearing depending on the
refresh
rate of the display and in this
case
it means because they're using the
module
they can drive this thing at 38
40
by 1600 which is the same as the 38
inch
ultra wide that's on my desk except
that
instead of 75 Hertz they have
nearly
doubled that to a hundred and
forty-four
Hertz native and it can
actually
overclock to 175 now all of
that
is with a nano IPS panel that means
98%
DCI p3 color gamut coverage like
this
thing is basically best of all
worlds
that I can really identify oh and
if
you're into it it's got this reactive
lighting
thing that goes on that you can
either
have sync up with your video or
your
audio or with the download you can
set
it to just like some color if you
want
now it's not coming anytime soon
they
have no pricing information for us
whatsoever
but hey the future is now
later
bringing us somewhat awkwardly and
abruptly
to this thing so the only notes
I
have about the 38 CK 950 N is that
there's
no pricing available at this
time
that's pretty much all I got I'm
gonna
have to wing the rest of this this
is
a weird there's a weird product okay
so
this is what is it 38 40 by 1600 yeah
that's
right it's got a webcam built
into
it right up there at the top it's
60
Hertz so you know nothing
groundbreaking
as far as that goes so
this
is just like the monitor on my desk
except
that it's got a computer built
into
it so it's got a rise in three APU
with
eight gigs of RAM 128 gigs of SSD
storage
and like no OS pre-installed on
it
it seems to be like kind of a
business-to-business
play but it's like
backwards
normally you'd have the system
division
slap a display on a computer
and
in this case we've got the monitor
division
slapping a computer into a
display
so it's like I don't know let me
know
in the comments below
what
is this why do you think it exists
I'd
love to hear from you there's one
thing
that I can tell you why it exists
though
and that is the d-brane grip it's
a
super grippy case with precision
cutouts
for your camera your fingerprint
sensor
it's got super clicky buttons and
of
course it's deep brand
so
you can customize the look with any
of
their fabulous debrand skins and
they're
also promoting their prism
screen
protector this thing it's not
actually
on this phone but don't worry
about
that this thing is unbelievable so
they've
got a cool little applicator
that
makes it so you get a perfect
application
every time it feels really
glassy
from the front nothing about this
demo
is staged
I
was absolutely dumbstruck so check out
both
the grip and the prism at the link
in
the video description and we will see
you
guys at the next CES booth hey come
on
I'm trying to
all
right I guess there's the gram but
there's
new grams this one looks pretty
cool
we're gonna review it really soon
our
review units like in the mail
sixteen
by ten display
