LG's 27EP950 (designated 27EP950-B due to its black rear) joins its larger brother in the UltraFine OLED Pro series as a color-focused product using this panel technology. With a brushed metal stand base and a broad cylindrical neck, the monitor is straightforward and modern in design. 



A 26.9-inch JOLED OLED screen with a resolution of 3840 x 2140 (‘4K' UHD) and a refresh rate of 60Hz is used. Similar to the bigger form, a very light matte ('semi glossy') screen surface is expected. Additionally, a 1M:1 static contrast ratio, 178°/178° viewing angles, and full 10-bit color are included. The monitor is factory calibrated and may be calibrated manually using a suitable calibration device and LG Calibration Studio (True Color Pro). The color gamut is specified to be 99 percent DCI-P3 (99 percent Adobe RGB), with a'minimum' brightness of 250 cd/m2. To help prevent burn-in, a brightness limiter is used, which may dim the display when predominantly brighter information is displayed. The monitor supports HDR10 content via VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black, which features a peak luminance of 400 cd/m2 and the obvious benefits of self-illuminated pixels. Along with the 10-bit color capabilities, the reasonably broad color spectrum can be put to good advantage. The OSD (On Screen Display) is accessed through a joystick positioned beneath the primary brand logo.

A 1ms grey to grey reaction time is provided — unlike LCDs, this is a reasonable depiction of expected performance without the need for extreme overdrive. Additionally, Dynamic Action Sync (DAS) is supported, a built-in function that minimizes input lag. The stand attaches centrally and detaches effortlessly through a quick-release clasp beneath the connection point, revealing 100 x 100mm VESA mounting holes. The stand tilts, swivels, and adjusts in height. The ports are positioned backwards in a recessed region to the right of the stand and feature a USB-C port (90W PD, DP Alt Mode, upstream data), two DP 1.4 ports, HDMI 2.0, three USB 3.0 ports (with upstream), a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a DC power input (external 'power brick').

 
The display is listed at an absurdly high price of $3000 USD.
