OLED technology is rapidly redefining the high-performance gaming monitor market, driven by significant consumer adoption and offering distinct advantages over traditional display types.
Industry reports indicate a swift shift, with OLED screens already constituting 9% of all 144 Hz gaming monitor volumes in the second quarter of 2025. This figure is projected to climb to 12% of total gaming monitor sales by the fourth quarter of 2025, a notable increase from 8% in the fourth quarter of 2024.
This growing adoption underscores OLED’s transformative impact on the gaming experience. Unlike older IPS or VA panels, QD-OLED offers true blacks, infinite contrast ratios, and virtually instant pixel response times, creating a smoother and faster visual experience.
“An OLED monitor elevates the gaming experience from the first second,” explained César Acosta, Gaming Product Manager at AGON by AOC. “With true blacks, vibrant colors, and ultra-fast response times, OLED is quickly becoming the ultimate upgrade for any PC or console gaming setup.”
AGON by AOC, a prominent global gaming monitor brand, is at the forefront of this trend, showcasing the technology through its extensive AGON PRO portfolio. The company features five specialized QD-OLED models tailored to various gaming segments.
The benefits of OLED extend beyond gaming, making these monitors versatile for other demanding applications. They boast 10-bit color depth, supporting 1.07 billion colors, and offer exceptional color coverage exceeding 99% DCI-P3 and 97% Adobe RGB. This makes them highly suitable for professional content creation and immersive entertainment consumption.
AGON PRO OLED monitors cater to diverse gaming needs. For competitive esports, models like the 26.5-inch QHD QD-OLED AG276QKD2 offer a 500 Hz refresh rate and DisplayHDR True Black 500, while the 240 Hz AG276QZD2 is approved for numerous tournaments.
In the ultra-high resolution segment, the 26.5-inch UHD 4K QD-OLED AG276UZD provides 240 Hz, eliminating the traditional compromise between resolution and refresh rate. The 31.5-inch UHD 4K QD-OLED AG326UD, with its 165 Hz, is ideal for immersive gaming and professional content creation.
For cinematic immersion, the 34-inch WQHD curved QD-OLED AG346UCD features a 175 Hz refresh rate and an 1800R curvature, designed for panoramic gaming experiences.
All AGON PRO OLED models share a characteristic 0.03 ms GtG response time and anti-reflective panel treatment. Depending on the model and HDR content, they can achieve a peak HDR brightness of up to 1000 nits.
