Asus 4K 138Hz OLED Gaming Monitor Update

Asus’ OLED monitors, presented at CES 2022 earlier in the year, now have their own product page with lots of new information. The manufacturer has not yet named the price.

Although OLED panels are no longer uncommon in smartphones and televisions, the high-contrast panel technology has so far been rarely represented in the PC or even gaming monitor segment. This is due to, among other things, the property of OLEDs that the displayed images remain lit for long periods of time, i.e. permanently leaving at least shadow marks or distorted colors.
