Display27-inch IPS Black; 3840 × 2160; 163 ppi; anti-glare surface Dell—
Refresh rate120 Hz; 48–120 Hz variable refresh

Variable refresh works over HDMI 2.1; dynamic refresh rate (DRR) over DisplayPort is also listed for Windows.

Dell		Up to 480 Hz

480 Hz improves motion clarity in fast games; reaching it also needs the graphics card to render close to 480 frames.

ASUS
Brightness450 nits typical; 600 nits peak; HDR 600 Dell—
Rated contrast3000:1 native contrast

IPS Black targets darker blacks than conventional IPS; it does not give per-pixel black like OLED or local-dimming displays.

Burn-in is when long-static images leave a mark on an OLED panel; the OLED Care features aim to reduce it.

ASUS
FirmwareM2T102 (A01, 19 August 2025)

Dell says it targets wake-from-sleep, USB dropping to 480 Mbit/s on MacBooks, auto brightness/colour temperature sensing and daisy-chained displays not waking.

Dell		—
Panel—26.5-inch WOLED; anti-glare surface

WOLED uses a white OLED layer with colour filters; each pixel makes its own light, so blacks switch fully off.

ASUS
Resolution—2560 × 1440, 16:9 ASUS
Brightness and contrast—HDR peak 1,300 cd/m²; contrast 1,500,000:1 (typical)

The peak figure applies to a small part of the screen; ASUS notes that peak brightness may vary with colour pre-calibration.

ASUS
HDR and certifications—HDR10; VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black ASUS
Variable refresh—VESA AdaptiveSync Display 480Hz; AMD FreeSync Premium; G-SYNC Compatible

Variable refresh matches the monitor’s rate to the graphics card’s frame rate to prevent tearing.
