LG's 39-inch ultrawide OLED monitor is insanely cheap right now | PCWorld

If you’ve been waiting for an incredible deal to pounce on an OLED gaming monitor, this might just be the one. Right now, Amazon’s closeout site Woot is offering a 39-inch LG ultrawide OLED display for $720. That’s an amazing $780 off its original price, a 52 percent discount.

Unlike a lot of monitors featured on Woot, this LG 39GS95QE is a brand-new model, neither refurbished nor open-box. It has a semi-standard 3440×1440 ultrawide resolution, but its size is boosted by five extra inches to give you that much more oomph.

With a dramatic 800R curve, a speedy 240Hz refresh rate, and Nvidia G-Sync compatibility, it also has a leg up on some other gaming monitors. A standard VESA mount makes adding a monitor arm easy, though the included base looks pretty nice all on its own.

Despite all that impressive tech, the connectivity is a bit underwhelming. You get two HDMI 2.1 ports and a DisplayPort, but no USB-C options, and only two USB-A ports for easy connection to other gadgets.

Even so, this is about the best deal you’re going to see for an oversized OLED monitor. It’s considerably cheaper than even most of the 27-inch OLED monitors on the market right now.

Woot is offering this rock-bottom price for another 10 days, and Amazon Prime members can get free standard shipping. But Woot deals with limited stock — once it’s gone, you might not see it again, so definitely jump on this one fast if you’re interested.
