Asus’ new monitor brings tandem OLED into the fray and promises brighter panels with a whopping 60% increased lifespan

OLED monitors are an envy of mine. That’s why it comes naturally for me to sit behind my IPS screen and point out some of the still-remaining flaws of the tech, namely burn-in and low brightness. But on this front, Asus might have an answer in the form of tandem WOLED monitors such as in the just-announced ROG Strix OLED XG27AQWMG.

Asus explains that this technology “splits the light emitting layers from three into four, separating the yellow layer into two distinct red and green layers. This eliminates the need for colour filters, which comes with a number of benefits.”
