WOLED is LG Display’s panel type using a white OLED layer with colour filters; each pixel makes its own light, so blacks go fully dark. Long-lasting static images raise the risk of burn-in.

ASUS
Refresh rate and response—240 Hz (DisplayPort); 120 Hz over HDMI; 0.03 ms (GtG)

240 Hz is only available through the DisplayPort input; ASUS’s signal table limits the HDMI inputs to 120 Hz. For PC games above 120 Hz, use a DisplayPort cable.

ASUS
Brightness and contrast—HDR peak 1,000 cd/m²; contrast 1,500,000:1; 10-bit (1.07 billion colours)

Peak brightness applies to a small part of the screen; with a full white screen brightness drops noticeably. ASUS notes peak brightness may vary with colour pre-calibration.

ASUS
Colour—DCI-P3 99%; sRGB 135%; factory pre-calibration report ASUS
HDR—HDR10

Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support are not listed.

ASUS
Variable refresh—VESA AdaptiveSync Display 240Hz; AMD FreeSync Premium; G-SYNC Compatible

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

ASUS
Inputs—1 × DisplayPort 1.4 DSC; 2 × HDMI 2.0; headphone jack; 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A hub

DSC (Display Stream Compression) compresses the signal without visible loss so DisplayPort 1.4 has enough bandwidth for high refresh rates. There are no speakers and no USB-C input.

ASUS
OLED care and warranty—ASUS OLED Care; 2-year warranty (including panel burn-in)

The warranty also covers panel burn-in; terms may vary by region.
