Exceptional cooling and OLED Care Pro 
To ensure long-term reliability and peace of mind for first-time OLED users, the monitors are equipped with a comprehensive suite of protective and user-friendly features. A core feature is the ASUS OLED Care Pro suite, which includes a Neo Proximity sensor that automatically dims the display when the user steps away, effectively mitigating the risk of burn-in. Detection distance can be customised to suit personal preference, ensuring maximum convenience and protection. Users can easily customise ASUS OLED Care Pro settings as well as manage display profiles through the intuitive DisplayWidget Centre software, bypassing standard OSD menus. Each monitor includes a three-year warranty.  

Unmatched motion clarity and visual comfort 
In addition to delivering outstanding colour and contrast, these new Strix OLED monitors offer a competitive edge with Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) technology to eliminate ghosting for crisp, fast-paced gameplay. Recognising the diverse needs of the gaming community, ROG included an aspect ratio control feature to allow gamers to easily switch screen sizes — such as the 24.5-inch esports standard — for familiarity and optimal focus. Advanced ROG OLED Anti-Flicker technology stabilises imagery during frame rate fluctuations, drastically reducing potential eye strain to ensure comfortable gaming marathons. Each monitor undergoes factory pre-calibration and includes an e-report, guaranteeing exceptional pro-grade colour accuracy and vibrant, true-to-life hues right out of the box.  
 
Intuitive control and AI-driven enhancements
Gamers can effortlessly customise monitor settings and manage display profiles through the intuitive ASUS DisplayWidget Centre software, allowing for quick adjustments directly via Windows without the need to navigate standard OSD menus. 
These monitors also feature advanced AI enhancements, including Dynamic Shadow Boost to reveal hidden details in dark areas without overexposing bright zones, and an AI-driven colour-shifting Dynamic Crosshair for better aim.  
Aesthetically, the sleek and compact ergonomic stand design saves valuable desk space while offering tilt, swivel, and height adjustments for personalised comfort. Furthermore, ROG firmware updates ensure that each monitor receives performance enhancements and new features, as they become available.
