LG Display's 27-inch DFR Gaming OLED panel wins SID's 'Display of the Year'

SEOUL, South Korea, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, announced that its 27-inch 540/720Hz Dynamic Frequency & Resolution (DFR) Gaming OLED panel has been awarded "Display of the Year" by the Society for Information Display (SID), receiving high acclaim for redefining the gaming display paradigm and accelerating market differentiation.

The "Display of the Year" award is SID's most prestigious distinction, presented to the most groundbreaking display product launched during the previous year that is expected to lead the future of the industry.

This achievement recognizes LG Display's new user-centered display paradigm. The product's standout feature is the company's proprietary DFR technology, which allows users to freely select the mode that suits their preferred gaming style.

High-refresh-rate mode particularly proves its value in game genres where rapid screen transitions are essential and victory is decided in a split second — like first-person shooters or racing games. By supporting an industry-leading refresh rate of 720Hz with HD resolution, this mode eliminates ghosting and motion blur even in the fastest scenes, enabling overwhelming gaming performance.

High-resolution mode provides an optimized visual experience for games based on stunning graphics. It simultaneously delivers QHD resolution and a 540Hz refresh rate. To overcome the conventional limitation where picture quality drops once the refresh rate exceeds 500Hz, LG Display applied a proprietary algorithm, securing the two core elements of a high refresh rate and high picture quality.

As a result, the panel obtained ClearMR 21000 certification, the highest rating from the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA).

"Our goal is to continue leading the gaming display market by leveraging LG Display's differentiated OLED technologies and relentless pursuit of innovation," said Young-seok Choi, Chief Technology Officer of LG Display.

SID is the world's largest display society with more than 7,000 industry experts, researchers, and professors. It hosts Display Week annually, featuring new technologies, product exhibitions, and academic presentations. SID Display Week 2026 will take place in Los Angeles, California from May 3 to 8.

CAESAREA, Israel, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alma, a Sisram Medical company and a global leader in medical aesthetic solutions, unveiled its longevity strategy at its global Alma Academy, outlining its shift toward a continuous care model and a new long-term growth approach.

In remarks to 430 physicians from 45 countries, Alma CEO Eyal Ben David outlined the company's transition toward a platform enabling continuous, outcomes-driven care.

"Longevity is redefining aesthetics as a discipline of performance over time," said Mr. Ben David. "The focus is on enhancing how skin functions, adapts, and maintains quality, through controlled biological responses that drive regeneration, resilience, and structural improvement. This approach enables practitioners to deliver measurable, sustained outcomes and build long-term value through consistent skin performance. At the core of this is the operating system of modern aesthetics, an integrated, end-to-end system designed to orchestrate the entire patient journey and redefine how care is delivered over time."

The company highlighted that this approach reflects a broader shift in consumer expectations, with patients increasingly prioritizing prevention, long-term results, and personalized experiences. Alma's longevity approach focuses on enhancing skin function and quality over time, starting earlier, extending engagement, and delivering sustained, measurable outcomes through an integrated ecosystem of technologies designed to activate the skin's natural regenerative and adaptive responses.

This year's global summit brought together 19 world-class experts from across the industry to share insights, research, and real-world case studies. Notable speakers included Dr. Spero Theodorou, Prof. Ofir Artzi, Dr. Pablo Naranjo, Dr. Tino Solomon, and Dr. Jaerim Kim, alongside other leading experts from around the world.

Sessions covered key clinical indications shaping the future of medical aesthetics, including skin rejuvenation, vascular indications, acne and acne scars, pigmentation, skin laxity, scars, and the treatment of challenging skin conditions, reflecting the industry's growing emphasis on comprehensive, long-term patient care.

Alma Academy continues to serve as a premier global platform for education, innovation, and collaboration, bringing together leading practitioners to exchange knowledge, advance clinical excellence, and experience the latest technologies through live demonstrations.
