2024 has been the year of the OLED monitor and I've been lucky enough to review more than my fair share of models here at KitGuru. Even just as a general enthusiast it has been brilliant to see how the technology has progressed in this space, from the first 175Hz models that launched back in 2022, up to new 480Hz panels that arrived this year. With that in mind, we thought it was time to revisit the OLED monitors we've reviewed this year and give our top three picks!
