Panel26.5-inch OLED, 4th-generation Primary RGB Tandem; 2560 × 1440 (QHD), 0.2292 mm pixel pitch

In a tandem structure light comes from more than one OLED layer; LG associates this with higher brightness and lifetime.

LG
26.5-inch WOLED; 2560 × 1440 (16:9); 0.229 mm pixel pitch; anti-glare surface

WOLED is LG Display’s panel type using a white OLED layer with colour filters; each pixel makes its own light, so blacks go fully dark. Long-lasting static images raise the risk of burn-in.

Peak brightness applies to a small part of the screen; with a full white screen brightness drops noticeably. ASUS notes peak brightness may vary with colour pre-calibration.

Inputs—1 × DisplayPort 1.4 DSC; 2 × HDMI 2.0; headphone jack; 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A hub

DSC (Display Stream Compression) compresses the signal without visible loss so DisplayPort 1.4 has enough bandwidth for high refresh rates. There are no speakers and no USB-C input.
