The new ASUS ProArt Display OLED PA32UCDM 31.5″ 4K HDR 240 Hz Monitor was designed to deliver exceptional 10-bit color. This Calman-ready 3840 x 2160 resolution 4K UHD monitor’s QD-OLED panel is factory calibrated for ΔE <1 accuracy, covering 99% of the DCI-P3 gamut while supporting multiple HDR formats.
This looks like a decent alternative to Apple’s 27″ Studio Display, which costs $1,499 USD.
