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		44.5-inch WOLED, 21:9, 800R curve; 5120 × 2160 (5K2K), 0.2035 mm pixel pitch (about 125 ppi); MLA+

800R means the screen curves along a circle with an 80 cm radius, so the edges sit closer to the eyes. MLA+ (micro lens array) directs OLED pixel light forward to raise brightness.

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.

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		2 × HDMI, 1 × DisplayPort 2.1 (DSC), 1 × USB-C (5120 × 2160 at 165 Hz, data, 90 W power); 2 × USB 3.0 downstream; 4-pole headphone/mic

DSC compresses the image visually losslessly so high resolution and refresh rate fit through one cable. USB-C gives a laptop video, data and 90 W charging over one cable. LG notes NVIDIA released a driver in April 2025 that fixed screen blackouts seen over DisplayPort.

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.

StandTilt +20°/−5°, swivel ±45°, pivot ±90°, 0–120 mm height; VESA 100 × 100; 1/4-inch tripod socket

The tripod socket lets a camera or light be mounted on the stand.

Refresh rate and response—165 Hz at 5K2K; 330 Hz at WFHD with VESA-certified Dual-Mode; 0.03 ms (GtG)

Dual-Mode doubles the refresh rate by lowering the resolution: 330 Hz for fast competitive games, 5K2K at 165 Hz for detailed games.

LG
Brightness and HDR—275 cd/m² typical (minimum 250); HDR10, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400; DCI-P3 98.5%; 10-bit; contrast 1,500,000:1 (typical)

DisplayHDR True Black 400 is VESA’s certification for screens that can turn black fully off, such as OLED, and requires 400 nits peak brightness.

LG
Sync—NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, VRR

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

LG
PiP and PbP—PIP and 2-source PBP

PiP shows one source in a small window, and PbP splits the screen to show two sources side by side, for example a computer and a game console at once.
