The world’s leading gaming monitor brand, AGON by AOC, recently launched the AGON PRO AG276UZD, a new 26.5-inch (67.31 cm) QD-OLED gaming monitor that brings UHD (3840×2160) resolution to the widely favoured 240 Hz format. Building upon the success of the highly popular AG276QZD2, this new AGON PRO model combines ultra-sharp visuals with an exceptional 240 Hz refresh rate and a lightning-fast 0.03 ms GtG response time, delivering outstanding clarity for both competitive esports and professional content creation.

QD-OLED performance in UHD

The AG276UZD features the latest (3rd gen) QD-OLED panel technology with a glossy finish, combining the benefits of ultra-high refresh rates with the visual clarity of UHD resolution. This unique pairing in the AOC portfolio is ideal for immersive gaming experiences – from expansive open-world adventures to richly detailed role-play games – where visual clarity and lifelike colours are key for deep player engagement. With 166 PPI (pixels per inch), text and UI elements appear crisp and clear, creating an advantage in games where reading information quickly is crucial.

The monitor delivers a peak HDR brightness of 1000 nits (3% APL) with the virtually infinite contrast ratio inherent to OLED technology. These specifications ensure perfect blacks and bright highlights, allowing gamers to spot opponents lurking in shadows while still appreciating vibrant explosions and effects. Beyond gaming, the 10-bit panel supports 1.07 billion colours and covers 99.3% of the DCI-P3 (CIE 1931) and 96.5% of the Adobe RGB (CIE 1976) colour spaces, delivering the colour accuracy required for professional 4K video editing. Thanks to its high resolution, wide colour gamut and smooth 240 Hz refresh rate, this monitor is equally well-suited for other creative disciplines such as 3D design, digital illustration, and high-fidelity content review.

“With the AG276UZD, we’re giving gamers exactly what they’ve been asking for – a cutting-edge QD-OLED panel that delivers stunning 4K clarity without sacrificing speed,” says César Acosta, Gaming Product Manager at AGON by AOC. “Thanks to its ultra-fast 240 Hz refresh rate and vivid QD-OLED visuals, this monitor redefines what competitive players can expect from a high-end gaming experience.”

Advanced features for demanding users

The AG276UZD comes equipped with future-proof connectivity, including 2x HDMI 2.1 ports, 1x DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR 20 support (offering a bandwidth of up to 80 Gbps), and USB-C with 65W Power Delivery and DP Alt mode – ideal for connecting both high-end gaming PCs and laptops. The DisplayPort 2.1 interface is particularly noteworthy as it ensures that the monitor can handle high refresh rates at 240 Hz at its full 4K resolution with 10-bit colour depth without compression, future-proofing the display for upcoming GPU generations.

The USB 3.2 hub with fast-charging capability ensures peripherals remain powered, while dual 5 W speakers provide audio for everyday use. For multitaskers, the PiP/PbP functionality enables displaying content from multiple sources simultaneously – perfect for gamers who stream or follow guides while playing.

With the choice of either G-SYNC compatibility or Adaptive-Sync technology support, ambitious gamers can rely on smooth, tear-free visuals even in fast-paced action when it matters most. It also includes Low Input Lag mode for instant visual feedback, Shadow Control for better visibility in dark areas, customisable Game Colour settings, and the Dial Point crosshair overlay which adapts to different in-game environments.

The ergonomic stand provides 130 mm height adjustment, tilt, swivel, and pivot functions to reduce strain during long gaming sessions or workdays. Like other OLED monitors in the AGON PRO range, the AG276UZD includes comprehensive OLED Care features and is backed by a 3-year warranty covering burn-in when used according to guidelines, providing peace of mind for this premium investment.
