Overview
ASUS builds this ROG Strix monitor around a tandem OLED panel with a glossy TrueBlack coating, where each pixel lights itself. A proximity sensor blanks the screen when you step away to guard against burn-in, and a compact stand saves desk room.
Pixel response and refresh rate combine for very clear motion, and self-lit pixels give deep contrast in dark rooms. Warranty coverage that includes burn-in lowers the usual OLED worry. A glossy coating rewards controlled lighting and suffers beside a sunny window.
Who it's for
PC gamers in a controlled-light room will see its strengths in fast motion and dark scenes. Office users who leave static toolbars up for hours, or anyone facing a bright window, should consider a matte LCD.
Pros and cons
- Very fast pixel response
- Deep blacks from self-lit pixels
- Current HDMI and DisplayPort inputs
- Burn-in covered by the warranty
- Glossy coating reflects room lights
- Stand adjustment range not listed
- Static content still needs burn-in care
Performance notes
Each OLED pixel emits its own light and switches directly, which gives the fast response and the deep blacks. The tandem OLED design is what ASUS credits for higher peak brightness, wider color volume and a longer lifespan than its previous WOLED panels. Burn-in risk is managed by the proximity sensor and the OLED Care Pro suite.
