Reasons why you need to choose the ASUS OLED laptop
Professional-grade true-to-life colors
ASUS OLED laptops deliver exceptionally detailed and realistic visuals, with a cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 color gamut.
Colors reproduced on the display are richer and more vivid: it is ideal for color-intensive projects.
Blue light reduction
Blue light is known to cause visual discomfort and disrupt sleep quality. By calibrating the spectrum, ASUS OLED laptops emit 70% less harmful blue light. Unlike traditional blue-light filters, shifting the spectrum means color accuracy is uncompromised.
Since children’s eyes are not fully developed, with a more transparent lens and cornea, harmful blue light can penetrate the eye more easily.
This means there is 80% blue light pass-through for 5 year-old children, compared to 20% pass-through for 60 year-old adults.
Great clarity at low brightness
When calculating the 3D color volume — which adds illumination to the traditional 2D color gamut — ASUS OLED displays have about a 60% higher color volume, offering better color performance at any brightness level.
When comparing color expression under different brightness, OLED color expression stays the same ― even at lower brightness ― while LCD colors degrade significantly.
ASUS OLED laptops are able to show great detail at lower brightness settings. This means you can see the content more clearly without having to turn up the brightness; therefore, your eyes are exposed to less blue light.
ASUS OLED laptops are able to maintain color detail at any brightness, so you can adapt the brightness according to your usage environment. Because OLED displays deliver accurate color with less brightness, eyes have less exposure to blue light.
Extreme contrast, astonishing detail
OLED displays have millions of light-emitting diodes (LED) instead of the just 50 or 60 LEDs found in LCD displays. OLED displays can turn on and off the LED for each pixel on the screen, and achieve true black with a 1,000,000:1 extreme contrast ratio.
0.2 ms Instant response for smooth actions
ASUS OLED displays have an ultrafast 0.2 ms response time ― 50X faster than average laptop LCD displays. This ensures smoother fast-paced action scenes, low-latency gameplay, and subtle details like blur-free text scrolling.
ASUS OLED burn-in prevention
With extended use, certain pixels on the display may age, resulting in degraded colors (burn-in).
To prevent this, ASUS takes the following steps:
- Default shipping in Windows Dark mode
- Default OLED screen protection: Dims the screen after 5 minutes at idle
- Samsung OLED burn-in refine technology
- OLED screen warranty: 7000 hours, guaranteed (@200 nits)
The Samsung OLED algorithm detects aging pixels and enhances the current passing through these pixels. This enables the degraded pixels to display brighter colors and, as a result, shows accurate perceived colors.
ASUS OLED Care
ASUS OLED laptops come with an ASUS-exclusive OLED Care mechanism that’s proven to protect your OLED display. Image persistence, or burn-in, on an OLED display can occur if a static high-contrast image is displayed for a prolonged period of time.
To avoid this, when your ASUS laptop is idle for over 30 minutes, our specially designed screensaver kicks in. This significantly reduces the chance of burn-in by making sure all the pixels are illuminated and darkened equally, thus protecting the display from visible color shifts over time.
