gamescom 2022: Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ / PG48UQ presented

Asus has unveiled two new giant OLED gaming monitors at gamescom 2022, the Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ and PG48UQ, which come in 41.5 and 47.5 inches, respectively, and feature a bright OLED panel that is fast up to 138 Hz.

Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ / PG48UQ unveiled

Both monitors were first shown at CES 2022 earlier this year, but there was no date at the time. Now, the Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ / PG48UQ gaming monitors are approaching the market launch.

The technical specifications are largely the same. Both monitors rely on a matte OLED panel in 16:9 format, which resolves in 4K with 3,840 x 2,160 pixels and has a typical brightness of 450 cd/m². Both monitors achieve a refresh rate of 120 Hz, or even 138 Hz when overclocked.

They also offer a contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1 for HDR content (typical: 135,000:1), a response time of 0.1 ms as well as true 10-bit colors and 98% DCI-P3 color coverage. The displays are also pre-calibrated at the factory to Delta E < 2 color accuracy and differ primarily in terms of size.

The Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ comes with a screen diagonal of 41.5 inches, while the PG48UQ is 47.53 inches. Unlike other OLED displays, the ROG Swift OLED series monitors feature the new anti-glare Micro Texture coating on the panel surface to reduce glare.

Other features highlights

The Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ / PG48UQ gaming monitors are also G-Sync compatible and feature, among other things, an HDMI 2.1 port that also allows for 4K image display at 120 Hz including VRR on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.

Two HDMI 2.1 ports are complemented by two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, a USB hub with four USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports each, a USB 3.0 port, an optical audio output and a 3.5 mm jack.

Other features include a thermal cooling system that keeps the monitors cool, a remote control for adjusting settings, different display modes for different games, and two built-in 10-watt speakers and a 15-watt subwoofer.

Prices and Availability

When and at what prices the OLED gaming monitors Asus ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ and Asus ROG Swift OLED PG48UQ will be available in stores, the manufacturer unfortunately still did not reveal. However, the product websites of the 41.5-inch and larger PG48UQ models now reveal additional details.
