Panel26.5-inch (27-inch class) QD-OLED, 16:9, anti-reflection surface

QD-OLED pairs self-emitting pixels with a quantum-dot colour layer; each pixel switches off individually, so blacks are fully dark.

ASUS		26.5-inch (67.32 cm) OLED, 2560 × 1440 (16:9); 0.2292 mm pixel pitch; 1.07 billion colours

Because self-lit OLED pixels can switch fully off, blacks are true black; LG gives typical contrast as 1,500,000:1. 1.07 billion colours corresponds to 10-bit colour depth.

LG
Resolution and refresh3840 × 2160, 240 Hz

The 4K 240 Hz signal travels over DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC compression, or over HDMI 2.1 depending on graphics-card support.

ASUS		—
Response time0.03 ms (GtG)

This is the grey-to-grey pixel transition time, not total input lag.

ASUS		—
Brightness1000 cd/m² HDR peak

ASUS notes peak brightness may vary with colour pre-calibration; the peak is reached on a small screen area.

ASUS		Typical 200 cd/m², minimum 160 cd/m²

These are full-screen SDR figures; small HDR highlights can be brighter. LG does not give a peak HDR figure in the spec table.

LG
Contrast1,500,000:1 (typical) ASUS—
Colour99% DCI-P3, 145% sRGB; ΔE < 2; 10-bit

Factory calibration (ΔE < 2) means colours are set close enough to target that differences are hard to see.

HDRHDR10; VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black ASUS—
Inputs1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (DSC); 2 × HDMI 2.1 (FRL); 1 × USB-C (DP Alt Mode, 90 W power)

The USB-C input takes video from a laptop and charges it at up to 90 W over one cable. HDMI 2.1 suits consoles at 4K 120 Hz.

ASUS		—
USB hub and audio3 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A; headphone jack ASUS—
Variable refreshFreeSync Premium Pro, G-SYNC Compatible; VESA AdaptiveSync Display 240 Hz

Variable refresh matches the screen's rate to the graphics card's frame rate, reducing tearing and stutter.

ASUS		—
FeaturesASUS OLED Care, KVM switch, Extreme Low Motion Blur, Neo Proximity Sensor, flicker-free

KVM shares a keyboard and mouse connected to the monitor between two computers. The proximity sensor dims the screen when the user leaves to reduce OLED wear.

Refresh rate and response time—240 Hz; 0.03 ms (GtG)

240 Hz shows 240 frames per second, making motion smoother and less blurred in fast games; this needs a graphics card producing 240 fps and a DisplayPort or HDMI 2.1 connection. GtG is the time a pixel takes to change from one grey level to another.

LG
Colour and HDR—98.5% DCI-P3 (typical), 90% (minimum); HDR10; factory calibrated; hardware calibration ready

Hardware calibration uses LG Calibration Studio and a compatible colorimeter to adjust the monitor’s own colour tables. No VESA DisplayHDR certification is listed.

LG
Adaptive sync and gaming—NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, AMD FreeSync Premium, VRR; Black Stabiliser, Dynamic Action Sync, crosshair, FPS counter

Adaptive sync matches the monitor’s refresh to the graphics card’s frame rate to reduce tearing and stutter. Dynamic Action Sync is meant to reduce input lag.

LG
Video inputs—2 × HDMI 2.1, 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (DSC)

DSC (Display Stream Compression) uses visually lossless compression to fit a 1440p 240 Hz signal within DisplayPort 1.4 bandwidth. The HDMI 2.1 inputs support VRR on consoles. There is no USB-C video input.

LG
USB and audio—1 × USB 3.0 upstream, 2 × USB 3.0 downstream; 4-pole headphone output (sound + mic) with DTS Headphone:X; optical digital audio out (S/PDIF)

There are no built-in speakers. DTS Headphone:X gives virtual 3D audio over headphones.
