QD-OLED's biggest weakness may have been solved.

1. Innovation of the next generation 5th generation QD-OLED panel
Improved contrast ratio: Compared to previous generations (Alienware, etc.), black expression is deeper and more neutral. In particular, the phenomenon where black became brighter or magenta appeared in bright environments has been significantly reduced.
Subpixel structure change: The RGB stripe structure has undergone a fundamental redesign from the previous triangular arrangement. This eliminates color bleeding that used to occur in fine text or high contrast edges, making readability much cleaner.
Enhanced panel durability: The surface hardness has been increased from 2H to 3H, increasing resistance to external friction and light scratches.
2. Overwhelming brightness and refresh rate
Unprecedented brightness: It not only meets the True Black 500 certification, but also records a peak brightness of over 1,300 nits based on a 3% window. This is the highest level among QD-OLED monitors measured so far.
Ultra-high refresh rate: A 360Hz refresh rate is implemented in a 34-inch ultra-wide form factor, providing an extremely smooth screen and excellent motion clarity.
3. Gaming performance and convenience features
Fast response time: Input lag is 3.1ms at 240 frames, and the average system delay time is 9.5ms, allowing for very agile gameplay.
Connectivity: Equipped with two HDMI 2.1 ports with a bandwidth of 48Gbps and one DP 2.1a port, it is optimized for the latest consoles and high-performance PC environments.
Customization: As a new feature in 2026, an HDR ABL curve function that users can directly adjust has been introduced, allowing for fine control of brightness fluctuations.
4. Reliability and after-sales support
Burn-in prevention (OLED Care 3.0): Comprehensive protection technologies such as AI sensor-based power management and pixel shifting have been applied.
Console mode support
Quality assurance: A 3-year free warranty, including burn-in, is provided for this premium model, allowing you to use it with peace of mind.
Caution and drawbacks
HDR 1,300 mode issue: In certain metadata signals, the screen may become excessively bright or posterization (color banding) may occur in gradation expression, requiring precise settings.
User interface: There is a lack of specific guidance when adjusting the HDR ABL curve, making it cumbersome for users to have to go through trial and error to set it up.
