LG Monitors

LG UltraGear 45GR65DC and 45GR75DC
LG 45GR65DC

LG announced two new 44.5″ 5120×1440 200Hz super-ultrawide gaming monitors, the LG 45GR65DC and the LG 45GR75DC.

This form factor is basically equivalent to two 24.5″ 2560×1440 displays side by side – just without the bezels in between them. So, you get a high 119.52 PPI (pixels per inch) for sharp details and text.

The monitors are based on 1500R curved VA panels with a high 3000:1 contrast ratio, DisplayHDR 600, 1ms GtG response time and wide 95% DCI-P3 color gamut.

The main difference between the two is that the 45GR75DC model has a USB-C port with 90W PD. Both models share other connectivity options, including DP 1.4, two HDMI 2.1 ports, a dual-USB 3.0 hub and a headphone jack.

Both models also offer the following features: Black Stabilizer, Dual Controller, crosshair overlays, RGB Hexagon lighting, PiP/PbP, a refresh rate tracker, and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support up to 200Hz.

Ergonomics include height adjustment up to 110mm, +/- 15° swivel, -5°/15° tilt and 100x100mm VESA mount compatibility.

ASUS Monitors

ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM

At Gamescom, ASUS revealed the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM based on a 31.5″ 4K 240Hz QD-OLED panel by Samsung.

Besides the infinite contrast ratio and instantaneous pixel response time, the monitor also offers a high peak brightness of up to 1000-nits for 3% highlights in HDR and 250-nits for a full-white field in both HDR and SDR with Uniform Brightness enabled.

The second-gen Samsung QD-OLED panel also uses a slightly different subpixel layout for better text clarity, which will in addition to the display’s high pixel density minimize text fringing associated with these panels. It also has a semi-glossy screen finish for clearer image quality in comparison to matte coatings.

Just like the ASUS PG27AQDM, it will feature a heatsink instead of a fan for cooling.

Connectivity options include DP 1.4 with DSC, HDMI 2.1, USB-C, a dual-USB hub, a headphone jack and SPDIF audio. VRR is also supported via HDMI 2.1 VRR, FreeSync Premium and G-SYNC Compatible. It’s also HDR-400 True Black certified.

The release date could be as soon as Q1 2024, but there’s no word on pricing yet.

ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG34WCDM
ASUS PG34WCDM

ASUS also announced the PG34WCDM 34″ 3440×1440 240Hz based on LG’s W-OLED panel with a steep 800R screen curvature and improved HDR brightness performance of 1300-nits peak for 3% window size and 650-nits for 10%.

Unlike the PG32UCDM, the PG34WCM uses a W-OLED panel and has a lower pixel density, so text fringing will still be an issue. Moreover, it uses a matte anti-glare coating that’s great at preventing reflections but adds graininess to the image.

The monitor also features a heatsink, HDR-400 True Black certification and VRR support (FreeSync Premium Pro, G-SYNC Compatible, HDMI 2.1 VRR).

Connectivity options include DP 1.4, HDMI 2.1, USB-C and built-in KVM.

The release date could be as soon as Q1 2024, but there’s no word on pricing yet.

ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD
ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD

It features a 0.03ms response time speed, a 144Hz refresh rate, a 5120×1440 screen resolution, a 1,000-nit peak brightness, a 1800R screen curvature and an integrated heatsink for better burn-in resistance and higher brightness.

According to some reports, the monitor might also have a built-in KVM functionality and a USB-C port with 90W PD and DP Alt Mode (in addition to HDMI 2.1 and DP 1.4 ports).

Update: It will be available in Q4 2023 for ~1700€. You can already get the OLED G9 with the higher 240Hz resolution for a similar price.

ASUS ROG Swift PG38UQ
ASUS ROG Swift PG38UQ

The ASUS ROG Swift PG38UQ is the first 38″ sized monitor with the regular 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, perfect for those who have been waiting for something in-between the more popular 32″ and 42″ monitor sizes.

32 inch vs 38 inch vs 42 inch

It’s based on an IPS panel with a fast 1ms GtG pixel response time speed, a wide 98% DCI-P3 color gamut and DisplayHDR 600 certification, indicating a peak brightness of 600-nits and some sort of (most likely edge-lit) local dimming.

Further, it has 4K UHD resolution, which will look very sharp even at this screen size due to the high pixel density of roughly 116 PPI (pixels per inch).

Variable refresh rate is supported via AMD FreeSync, NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and HDMI 2.1 VRR, as well as 4K 120Hz upscaling for consoles.

No word on pricing yet, while the release date should be in Q3 2023.

Update: It’s now available for $1000.

ASUS ROG Swift Pro PG248QP

Connectivity options include DP 1.4, HDMI 2.1, micro HDMI 2.1, a dual USB-C hub and 5W built-in speakers, while the ultra-slim design includes tilt and height adjustments.

Samsung QD OLED 2023 Panel Subpixel Layout

Early reviews show that the 49″ QD-OLED panel has a bit different subpixel shape, resulting in less text fringing and better clarity. It seems that the screen coating is also a bit different, while the brightness performance remains similar to the first gen QD-OLED panels (~250-nits full white, ~1000-nits peak for < 3% windows).

The Samsung OLED G9 is now available for $2,200 (often on sale for $1,800). Check out our review.

Samsung will also release the G93SC variant without the built-in smart features in Q3 2023, but pricing is currently unknown.

Philips will also release a monitor based on the same panel, the Philips Evnia 49M2C8900 with built-in KVM and USB-C (90W PD). The release date should be in September with a ~$2100 price tag.

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9

Acer Nitro XV242F

Acer XV242F

Acer revealed a 1080p 540Hz TN gaming monitor, most likely based on the same panel as the ASUS PG248QP.

Unlike ASUS’ model, the XV242F won’t have a dedicated G-SYNC module but rely on the traditional scaler and Adaptive-Sync protocols for variable refresh rate via AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible technologies.

Other specifications include 99% sRGB color gamut, 400-nits peak brightness with DisplayHDR 400 certification, a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, a fully ergonomic stand, DP 1.4, two HDMI 2.0 ports, a headphone jack and dual 2W integrated speakers.

No word on official pricing and availability in the US, but it’s been seen in China for ~$540.

Acer XV275K P3

Acer XV275K P3

The Acer XV275K P3 is a 27″ 4K 160Hz IPS monitor with a 576-zone mini LED FALD backlight, a 1000-nit peak brightness, 1ms GtG response time speed, and 99% Adobe RGB color gamut.

It will be available in Q2 2023, but there’s no word on the exact pricing yet.

Update: It’s now available for $800 (on sale for $600).

Acer XV275U P3

Acer XV275U P3

Acer also announced the XV275U P3 model with a 27″ 1440p 165Hz flat-screen VA panel, also with a 576-zone mini LED FALD, a 1000-nit peak brightness and 99% Adobe RGB color gamut. We assume it uses the same panel as the KTC M27T20.

No word on US pricing and availability yet. In China, it goes for just around $280, so we hope it will soon be available in the US at a similar price.

Update: It’s now available on B&H for $260 – 400$.

Acer Predator X32

Acer Predator X32 1

Just like the ASUS PG32UQXE and the HP Omen 32u, the Acer Predator X32 is based on a 32″ 4K 144Hz (160Hz OC) IPS panel with a 576-zone mini LED FALD backlight, full Adobe RGB gamut coverage and G-SYNC Ultimate.

In comparison to the already released and reviewed X32 FP variant, the X32 doesn’t have HDMI 2.1 or USB-C connectivity options. Moreover, the pixel response time speed is not specified.

The ASUS PG32UQXE variant specifies HDMI 2.1, but we don’t know what features and bandwidth it will support since HDMI 2.0 has been essentially renamed to HDMI 2.1 thus causing confusion.

The X32 should be available in Q3 2022 for ~$2,000. Expect similar pricing/release date for the PG32UQXE and Omen 32u models as well.

AOC Monitors

AOC Q27G3XMN

AOC Q27G3XMN

The AOC Q27G3XMN is a 27″ 1440p 180Hz gaming monitor based on a flat-screen VA panel with a high 4000:1 native contrast ratio, a fast 1ms GtG response time, DisplayHDR 1000, VRR, 96% DCI-P3 color gamut and a 336-zone mini LED FALD backlight.

You also get a fully ergonomic stand, standard gaming features such as AOC Shadow Control and crosshair overlays and basic connectivity options, including DP 1.4, two HDMI 2.0 ports and a headphone jack.

It goes for only $310, which makes it the cheapest FALD display yet. Remember that the first FALD models, such as the PG27UQ with 384 dimming zones went for $2,000 when they were released, so we’ve come a long way and are finally seeing budget HDR displays.

AOC AGON AG274QGM

27 inch 1440p 300Hz Mini LED Gaming Monitors

The AOC AG274QGM, along with the MSI MEG271Q and the ViewSonic XG272G-2K are the first 27″ 1440p 300Hz gaming monitors with a mini LED backlight.

Additionally, the monitors will feature G-SYNC Ultimate and have a 576-zone full-array local dimming solution. Other specs include a 98% DCI-P3 color gamut and DisplayHDR 1000 certification.

It’s actually the first 24″ 1440p monitor with a high refresh rate and an IPS panel, which many gamers, who find 27″ sized screens to be too big and 1080p resolution too low, have been waiting for.

No word on pricing and release date yet though, so stay tuned.

Update: After being successful in China, AOC will soon release the Q24G2 model in Europe. No word on US availability yet.

ViewSonic Monitors

ViewSonic VX2722-4K-Pro

NZXT Monitors

NZXT Canvas 27Q Monitor

NZXT entered the monitor market with four Canvas models:

All four models can be configured with black or white panel and stand, and can be purchased with or without the stand, or with a single or dual monitor arm.

Thermaltake Monitors

Thermaltake Gaming Monitors

Thermaltake enters the monitor market with the Thermaltake TGM-I27FQ and the Thermaltake TGM-V32C models. While neither of the monitors offers anything particularly new, these are two very popular form factors among gamers.

The I27FQ is based on a 27″ 1440p 165Hz fast IPS panel with a wide 95% DCI-P3 color gamut. Apart from the standard VRR support (FreeSync Premium, G-SYNC Compatible), both monitors also feature the Ultra Shadow Boost gaming feature for better visibility in dark scenes.

No word on pricing and availability yet.

Eve / Dough Monitors

ES07E2D
Dough Spectrum ES07E2D

Dough (previously known as Eve) announced a 27″ 1440p 240Hz monitor based on LG’s W-OLED panel. Unlike the LG 27GR95QE and the ASUS PG27AQDM with matte anti-glare screen coatings, the Dough Spectrum ES07E2D will feature a glossy screen surface for a more vivid (but also more reflective) image quality.

However, we’d like to warn you about purchased Dough / Eve monitors that were never shipped to users and unpaid refunds. Plenty of their customers reported not receiving monitors or refunds even for the old 2020 Spectrum models.

The ES07E2D is available for pre-order for $650, so if you want to take the risk, that’s up to you, but you should definitely check out the experiences of their users first, on their own forum and elsewhere.

ES07E3F & ES07E3D
Dough ES07E3D

Dough also announced two 31.5″ 4K 240Hz OLED Spectrum Black monitors, the ES07E3D with a glossy screen surface and the ES07E3F model with a matte anti-glare coating.

Other specifications include instantaneous response time, infinite contrast ratio, 150-nits full-field white and 450-nits peak brightness for SDR, 1000-nits peak for 3% white window in HDR, 98.5% DCI-P3 gamut coverage and Delta E < 1 factory calibration.

It will also feature VRR and BFI (Black Frame Insertion) support. Connectivity options include two HDMI 2.1 ports, DP 1.4 with DSC, USB-C with DP Alt Mode and 100W PD, two USB-C data ports, two USB-A ports, a headphone jack and built-in KVM functionality, while the ultra-thin design offers full ergonomic support.

The monitor also features Gorilla Glass with the DXC Anti-Reflective treatment for better reflection handling, support for pixel-perfect integer scaling and a 3-year warranty (2-year warranty for burn-in, zero bright dot pixel policy).

You will be able to pre-order the ES07E3F for $700 and the ES07E3D for $800, while the full price will be $1100 and $1300, respectively. It will most likely be available in Q3 2024.

It’s unclear if Dough will be using Samsung’s or LG’s 31.5″ 4K 240Hz panel, though they are not advertising the DFR (Dynamic Frequency and Resolution) feature of the LG panel that allows for 1080p 480Hz.

Again, check the links above about previous Eve / Dough users not receiving refunds and getting delayed shipping before deciding to pre-order. Note that we’ll most likely be seeing this panel in monitors by other manufacturers around the same time, though probably not as feature-packed and without the glossy option. Either way, we only recommend considering buying these Dough monitors once they’re available on Amazon, Newegg and other retailers.

HP Monitors

HP E45c G5
HP E45c G5

HP announced a 44.5″ 5120×1440 165Hz ultrawide monitor with a 1500R curved VA panel, sporting a 3000:1 contrast ratio, a 3ms GtG specified response time speed, a 400-nit peak brightness and 99% sRGB color gamut.

The monitor is basically equivalent to two 24″ 2560×1440 monitors side by side without the bezels in between them, with a pixel density of roughly 120 PPI.

Moving on, the monitor offers an ergonomic stand with height, tilt and swivel adjustments, while connectivity options include DP 1.4, HDMI 2.1, USB-C (DP Alt Mode, 65W PD), a quad-USB hub and RJ45.

The release date is unknown at the moment, while the price is set at £1499.

KTC Monitors

KTC M27P20P & M27T20
KTC M27T20

The KTC M27P20P is a 27″ 4K 160Hz IPS gaming monitor with a 576-zone mini LED FALD backlight, based on the same panel as the Cooler Master Tempest GP27U. It also goes for $800, but has the same issues the GP27U before its firmware update – VRR only works up to 144Hz and local dimming and VRR cannot work simultaneously, though KTC says they will release a firmware update.

The KTC M27T20 is a 27″ 1440p 165Hz 576-zone mini LED FALD model with the same firmware issues. Unlike the Tempest GP27Q, it has a VA panel with a higher contrast ratio. It even has a fast pixel response time speed, which is surprising for a VA panel. Sadly, it has the same VRR/local dimming issue as the M27P20P model. Check out our full review for more information.

KTC G42P5, M32P10 ad M32P10S
KTC M32P10

KTC released a 42″ 4K 138Hz OLED display, the G42P5, and a 32″ 4K 144Hz IPS gaming monitor with an 1152-zone mini LED FALD backlight, the M32P10. The M32P10 even has more LEDs (4608) in comparison to the 1152-zone alternatives, such as the Innocn 32M2V (2304), which should result in a higher brightness.

They also announced the KTC M32P10S, the first 32″ 4K 165Hz mini LED gaming monitor with a VA panel.

It uses the same backlight as the M32P10 with an 1152-zone FALD (4608 LEDs) solution, 99% Adobe RGB and 98% DCI-P3 color gamut, DisplayHDR 1000, HDMI 2.1, DP 1.4 and USB-C (45W PD) connectivity as well as a fully ergonomic stand.

Its VA panel should help deliver even deeper blacks with less blooming artifacts thanks to the high native contrast ratio, but it remains to be seen how it will perform in terms of pixel response time speed.

No word on release date yet, while the price should be around $1300.

That’s all the information we have so far on these displays, but we’ll definitely be keeping a close eye on any developments.

Redmagic Monitors
