Release year20242023
Panel33.94-inch WOLED; 3440 × 1440; 21:9; 800R curve; anti-glare (matte) surface

800R means the screen curves like an arc of a circle with an 800 mm radius. Pixel pitch is 0.231 mm.

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
Refresh rate and response240 Hz; 0.03 ms (GtG); Adaptive-Sync VRR

ASUS lists VESA AdaptiveSync Display 240Hz, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC Compatible certification.

Colour10-bit (1.07 billion colours); DCI-P3 99%, sRGB 135%; ΔE ≤ 2; 1,500,000:1 contrast

A factory colour calibration report is in the box.

ASUS
—
Video inputs1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (DSC); 2 × HDMI 2.1 (FRL); 1 × USB-C (DP Alt Mode, 90 W power)

The USB-C input can take video from a laptop over one cable while charging it at up to 90 W. All three inputs support vertical frequencies up to 240 Hz.

ASUS
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
Other connections and featuresUSB hub: 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 1 × USB 2.0 Type-A; KVM switch; optical audio (S/PDIF) out; headphone out; no built-in speakers; proximity sensor

With KVM a keyboard and mouse plugged into the monitor can be shared between two computers.

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
Brightness—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
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
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.
