AOC has unveiled its new QD-OLED gaming monitor, Agon Pro AG276UZD. The screen boats specs you’d normally find on displays with four-figure price tags but the company aims to buck that trend with this new model.
AG276UZD packs a Gen 3 QD-OLED panel at its heart, offering a pin-sharp 4K (3840×2160) resolution and silky-smooth 240Hz refresh rate. This combination of relatively small screen and big resolution results in a fantastic pixel density of 165PPI (Pixels Per Inch), translating into a impressively crisp and clear image. This spec also should also improve text reproduction compared to other QD-OLEDs as it will suffer less from fringing.

As usual with OLED-based panels, AOC claims up to 0.03ms GtG response times, making it a dream for gamers who value crystal-clear motion clarity. Furthering its responsive chops, the monitor is pending for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia GSync Compatible certification.
But that’s not all, those who require accurate colour reproduction for image/video editing or media consumption will gush at AG276UZD’s gamut coverage. The monitor can display 99.3% of DCI-P3 and comes factory-calibrated for both P3 and sRGB colour spaces. It also has a glossy finish which adds to the colour vibrancy to the detriment of reflection. This makes it better suited for dimly lit rooms.
AOC offers a plethora of protections to combat panel degradation and burn-in inherent to QD-OLED. The manufacturer will ship AG276UZD with the likes of Thermal Protection, Multi-Logo Protection, Boundary Dimmer, and Taskbar Dimmer, just to name a few. If that’s not enough, the brand also covers panel burn-in with a three-year warranty.
On the connectivity side, the AG276UZD doesn’t disappoint either offering the latest DisplayPort 2.1 80Gbps (UHBR20) – with a 1.5m certified cable included, two HDMI 2.1, plus a USB Type-C with 65W power delivery. Alongside these video inputs, you get a dual-port USB hub, complemented with a KVM switch for the multi-taskers out there. Two 5W speakers are also present if you want some basic audio, just don’t expect them to blow you away. Lastly, you get a fully ergonomic stand, adjustable in height, tilt, swivel, and pivot.
AOC AG276UZD will launch launch on May 25 at €899. While this price point isn’t exactly pocket change, it is more affordable than its €1,199 competition however you slice it.
