Well-rated LG UltraGear OLED monitor costs half its original price. It features 4K, up to 330 Hz, and has a glossy finish

This monitor slipped through the market almost unnoticed – reviews are scarce, but owners on forums swear by it. The LG UltraGear 32GX850A-B now costs 15,552 CZK with code ALZADNY20. A large 4K OLED for this money is certainly appealing, even if – let’s be frank – it’s not alone on the market.

Quick summary:
✅ It’s for you if you want a large 4K OLED for games and movies – deep blacks, a glossy image, and 165 Hz, which jumps up to 330 Hz in Full HD.
⚠️ Keep in mind the subtle gray banding typical for WOLED with static content, the quiet internal fan, and generally with OLED, the risk of burn-in during long work with static elements.
💡 At 15,552 CZK, it’s not an unrivaled offer – similarly priced competitors from Asus and MSI exist – but it’s a fair price for a well-made piece.

A glossy WOLED that’s rarely talked about

Let’s start with what Alza gets wrong in the description. The panel is neither QD-OLED nor matte – it’s a glossy WOLED with MLA+ technology. And it’s not just semantics: WOLED emits less pure blue light, so according to owners, it’s less tiring for the eyes and better to live with even at a well-lit desk near a window. The glossy surface adds vibrancy to colors and depth to blacks – DisplayHDR True Black 400, millions-to-one contrast, and DCI-P3 98.5% coverage. 4K resolution is beautifully sharp on 32 inches, and the dual mode can switch between UHD at 165 Hz and Full HD at 330 Hz – you choose between detail and speed. Smoothness is ensured by a 0.03 ms response time, G-Sync Compatible, and FreeSync Premium, with peak brightness briefly touching 1300 nits in HDR. Gamers will appreciate the crosshair, black stabilizer, and FPS display, while fine-tuning is handled by the LG Switch application. The L-shaped stand saves space and handles tilt, swivel, and height adjustment.

Where WOLED has its limits

But it’s not without its wrinkles. Owners on forums describe the subtle gray banding that WOLED panels suffer from – you’ll notice it most on static gray areas, such as in a file manager in dark mode, and you can mitigate it by reducing the refresh rate to 120 Hz. Inside the monitor, a small fan quietly hums; you’ll only hear it in complete silence. And since it’s an OLED, when working for hours with static elements, consider the risk of burn-in – LG has added protective features and a pixel cleaning cycle, but caution doesn’t hurt. Finally, as already mentioned: similarly sized 4K OLEDs are also sold by competitors for a comparable amount, so the deciding factor will likely be whether a glossy WOLED suits you.

So it’s not a sensation of the century, but after the discount, you get an excellent 4K OLED picture, solid gaming features, and a panel that handles long viewing better than many QD-OLED competitors. If you crave a large OLED for gaming and movies and don’t need 240 Hz for competitive shooters, this choice makes sense.

Would a switch to 4K OLED tempt you, or do you remain loyal to 1440p and higher Hz?
