Shipment starts 23rd April.

  • $50 sign up bonus brings it down to $699.
  • It's worth noting that I had an issue with the payment where I was taken away to pay with PayPal portal which didn't confirm payment leaving my order as "waiting for payment". When using the live chat, they instantly offered me a 10% discount code to use on my next order instead of the $50 welcome which brought my price down to $674.10.

Appears to be the same panel as the LG 27GS95QE-B although I can't confirm this directly. RTINGS review is very positive, especially at this price point https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gs95qe-b.

      I'd disagree, only on the premise that a 41% discount would be better value. Obviously all have their own use cases, but I think for the general population 240hz is more than enough. In saying that I've been weighing up options and would have bought an IPS panel instead but at this price for a decent OLED made it a no brainer for me.

      I'd agree with the 4k Dell deal though, if you're in the market for a 4k OLED for sure, although I haven't really looked into 4k at all so I'd have no idea.

    • NoldorWarrior on 11/04/2025 - 19:04

      There was a video that said 60hz OLED is the same as 120hz IPS to our eyes / on the screen , so 240hz OLED is already 480 IPS to our eyes

      • Not Applicable on 12/04/2025 - 23:43

        What do you mean?

        • NoldorWarrior on 13/04/2025 - 00:27

          It was a very nerdy youtube video about monitor refresh rates and using scanning tools, seeing pixel transition time, doing tests etc etc, I don't remember the title to find it again but I watched tons of there videos, but yeah I also used a lg c6 as a monitor for years at 60hz and it was the same as my 120hz TN monitor in motion to my eyes but with better colors and blacks from it being OLED, now all OLED are 120hz so you don't even need to think about it lol , just get OLED and nothing else.

    • vid_ghost on 11/04/2025 - 19:51

      What GPU pumps out 480FPS ? on the games you play?

      • AircraftFreight on 11/04/2025 - 19:53
        +1

        Mostly FPS competitive games (ie. CS2) where I can get 480FPS pretty easily

        • vid_ghost on 11/04/2025 - 21:45

          So anyone who inst just playing E-Sports games doesn't need 480FPS .. heck unless your a pro gamer 240FPS is even overkill

        • botchie on 12/04/2025 - 09:25

        • Tbargain12 on 12/04/2025 - 12:42

          At what PC spec and what setting are you getting 480fps on cs2?

    • crimsson on 12/04/2025 - 19:34

      I have same monitor as yours, but had to disagree
      240Hz is enough for many gamers and more than that is just overkill
      especially for other games than CS2 and Valorant

  • lovebargain87 on 11/04/2025 - 17:07

    What is the difference between these models? They look the same except the price

    • SSChicken on 11/04/2025 - 17:51

      Everything on their website seems virtually the same with minor differences -No mic output, no RGB lighting, slightly lighter and stand only has Tilt/Height/Pivot instead of Tilt/Height/Swivel/Pivot.

        Solid, glad it worked out at least a bit for you, same as what I paid and I'm chuffed. Especially since I was ready to drop $750 on this as it was ahah

    This uses the 2nd gen W-OLED panel. The only difference between it and the 27GS95QE is some RGB lights on the back, that’s it. If you use EDU account and stack with $50 first buy discount it will cost ~$630ish.

    • SSChicken on 11/04/2025 - 17:53

      nice find, I don't have an EDU account but $630 is pretty nuts I reckon

    Finally sub 1k OLEDs, made me read preorder as pre owned at first.

    • SSChicken on 11/04/2025 - 17:54

      Right! I ruled OLED out because I wasn't willing to drop 1k on a monitor haha

    • MichaelAU on 11/04/2025 - 18:07

      Samsung previously had the 49inch oled g9 (G91SD) for around $1100 on its website.

    Woah, 750 bucks for an OLED?

    • SSChicken on 11/04/2025 - 17:55

      Really $699 but couldn't post that as the deal because it's a welcome offer. But even then if you have an EDU account as low as $630!

      • Pacify on 11/04/2025 - 17:58

        Damn, I have one of those.

        Man $630, that's insanely tempting

  • Froggy2022 on 11/04/2025 - 18:31

    Thanks. Been looking at monitors for the last few months to upgrade from my 2018 AOC VA monitor.

    This should do nicely.

    • SSChicken on 11/04/2025 - 18:53

      Glad I could help, Over the past week I've been tearing my hair out because there's so many models out there at the moment, trying to sift through all the shit panels out there ahah

      • Froggy2022 on 11/04/2025 - 19:00

        Yeah for sure. Was looking at Mini led monitors but for 699 figured I'd make the jump to OLED and just change my usage habits slightly.

  • Roflstab on 11/04/2025 - 18:44

    Forgive me here and please correct me if i’m wrong, but isn’t it illegal under Australian law to launch a product already discounted? Would that also include preorder discounts etc?

    • Legendalvin on 11/04/2025 - 21:56

      Preorder on LG pages only means no unit available in warehouse, in this case it’s probably “back order”. Not new product. You can get 30% off RRP for preorder 2025 new release I think, subs required.

      • Roflstab on 12/04/2025 - 00:39

    Nice deal for a WOLED, comparable in pricing to a QD-OLED from Samsung after stacking a gazillion coupon codes, would buy if I didn't jump on another deal earlier in the year.

      Don't stress $675 is about the ATL for the Samsung 360Hz model so far, can imagine we'll see some interesting deals on that and 500Hz/540Hz QD-OLED very soon.

    WOLED lasts longer than QD-OLED in terms of burn in issue, but still LG has only 2 years warranty.

    I bought this last month for $720 then returned it because the thick matte coating really leaves big glare that makes color washed , not OLED vivid at all. Maybe ok for dark room.

    • NoldorWarrior on 13/04/2025 - 00:34

      What did you buy / looking to buy that would be this but with a nice glossy coating?

    • jasswolf on 13/04/2025 - 01:05

      Assuming a variety of content, this hasn't been true since first generation QD-OLED. In terms of the weak point of QD-OLED, that's for colours that are white or near-white at max - or close to max - brightness, due to requiring all 3 sub-pixels to fire brightly to make that happen.

      Ultimately you don't want to use WOLED tech to produce an image because the white sub-pixel washes out colours, so the goal of both manufacturers is an RGB system of some kind, which presently leads to about 90% rec.2020 coverage when you do.

      LG's premium TV release for 2025 - the G5 - is the first time they've switched to an RGB arrangement, in the form of a tandem RGB panel. It's also the first time in 3 years they've been genuinely competitive with Samsung's efforts, but they're not offering that panel tech on any other model. We'll see a monitor using it later this year, but I suspect it won't be a particularly high refresh rate.

  • Binggggo on 12/04/2025 - 11:08

    I'm not sure whether to regret missing this. My Dell AW2725QF just arrived from the $450 deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/899538

    I will mostly use a monitor for emails/text editing when WFH, and PS5 and XSX.

    From Rtings, it seems text clarity on this LG OLED is not great (fringing etc), and it's only 1440p; so hopefully my 4k IPS is the right choice :)

    And Rtings also has the LG peak brightness at Peak 10% Window 620 cd/m² - sounds like the 1300 peak advertised is as Rtings says with "Peak Brightness set to 'High,' which gets much brighter but has a more aggressive ABL and a less accurate image." (https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gs95qe-b)

    B

    • Tbargain12 on 12/04/2025 - 12:43

      I think text fringing you have to really just base it on your real-world experience rather than a zoomed image, check one out at a store if you can. I'm using a 2725DF with no issue, it doesn't bother me.

    • Meteor Anarcom on 14/04/2025 - 13:11

      Sometimes. I remember they restocked once for the 27GX790A

  • Informant V on 13/04/2025 - 10:06

    This monitor does hit the peak brightness value of 1300 nits - but if you understand what that means in OLED advertising - that means it can reach that figure in a 1 or 2% window and only very briefly.

    The panel is MLA+ so it would be a cut down G4 - which is not cheap.

    • byaleks on 16/04/2025 - 20:43

      I ended up contacting support and they offered a 10% discount. Plus, bought two due to OCD reasons and got an additional 5% off, bringing it down to $759 each.

    • Froggy2022 on 24/04/2025 - 14:40

      I contacted support but they couldn't tell me when the order would ship…

      • SSChicken on 24/04/2025 - 14:58

        well that's not promising…I guess these things happen

      • byaleks on 24/04/2025 - 17:35

        I ended up calling, and I was told it was likely the 27th of May. However, some may start shipping in a week from now and then it could take upwards of 14 days to arrive. Ended up cancelling and ordering from Scorptec for the same price and it was shipped today from them.

        • Froggy2022 on 24/04/2025 - 18:14

          Yep I just did the same thing, but from my local PLE.

          Refund was processed in like 30 mins from cancel request.

  • NigerianGirthLord on 24/04/2025 - 16:09

    LG sending me an email asking to review the monitor they haven’t shipped is certainly something.

    I’m 99% sure it said it would start shipping these on the 24/04 when I placed the order.

    • n14pulsarq on 25/04/2025 - 18:52

      Lol got sent a second email asking for a review.

      "If you haven't already, don't forget to write a review and rate your 27GS93QE-B."

  • NigerianGirthLord on 29/04/2025 - 14:54

    So I just called LG Australia wondering what is going on and the person on the other line just went off the listing which now has the monitor available for shipment from 27/05 (wtf)

    I had asked why they said that date as when the order was placed it said 23/04 but all I got answer wise was "LG does shipments in batches".

    Not super happy considering you can just go and pickup one of these for $750 at Scorptec right now

    I placed an order for this monitor on the 10/04 and the idea of waiting 2 months is insane (its not a 5090 LG)

    • Informant V on 29/04/2025 - 17:22

      I suspect LG Australia's business model for this was to allocate most of the stock to retailers where they get greatest margins. And whatever left unsold from the batch is for consumers who 'pre-ordered'.

      • SSChicken on 30/04/2025 - 11:55

        Shipment date pushed back again to 2nd June, only a few days from the new date but still pretty crap from them considering stock available from other retailers at $759…

      Yep, just got email from LG that order is shipped, nothing from DHL but I am a happy man regardless. I was seriously considering cancelling the order because my primary monitor has suffered a broken backlight and kinda pissed with LG and their lack of communication around this "launch". Glad it's finally coming and really not that long after my initial expectation as well.

  • Informant V on 06/05/2025 - 18:14

    Looks like people are receiving their orders this week

    Oddly my product including serial number was automatically registered with LG - their system seems to do it without your input.
