Editor's Pick: Corsair Xeneon Flex 45WQHD240

An OLED panel that lacks the Wow! factor

- 

OLED PANELS ARE seen as the shizzle when it comes to premium screen technology. But like any new tech, OLED panels come with their own issues. For proof, look no further than the spectacular new Corsair Xeneon Flex 45WQHD240.

It’s a 45-inch monster of a monitor with a 21:9 aspect OLED panel and loads of connectivity. It’s flexible too, with a range of manually-adjustable curves available from completely flat through to 800R. Given the ultra-curved Samsung Neo G9 is only 1000R, at full bend, the new Corsair is certainly something.

As an OLED panel, it has all the usual advantages of that display tech. There’s per-pixel lighting with perfect black levels and response times that make LCD monitors look like they’ve been caught napping. Yet OLED panels aren’t perfect, not even close. If you’re new to OLED tech, there’s a learning curve to surmount.
