Display14-inch OLED; 2880 × 1800 (3K); 16:10; 120 Hz; Pantone Validated ASUS14-inch 3K (2880 × 1800) 16:10 OLED ROG Nebula Display; 120 Hz, DCI-P3 100%, Pantone Validated, anti-reflection coating

On OLED each pixel makes its own light, so blacks turn fully off. DCI-P3 100% means it covers the whole cinema color space; Pantone validation is a factory color-accuracy check.

ASUS
Display featuresROG Nebula HDR; 1100 nits peak brightness; VESA DisplayHDR True Black 1000; 100% DCI-P3; 0.2 ms; G-SYNC; ambient light sensor

HDR peak brightness is not a sustained full-screen figure. ASUS’s January 2026 introduction gives 1000 nits peak; the 1100 nits from the sales announcement is used.
