Corsair Xeneon 27QHD240 OLED Review

Rating: 8.0.

Corsair announced itself in the high-end monitor market with the launch of the monstrous 45in Xeneon Flex OLED last year. Today we're following up on something slightly more conventional, but still impressive – a 27in 1440p OLED display with a 240Hz refresh rate. Promising excellent HDR, infinite contrast and effectively instant response times, we put the Xeneon 27QHD240 through its paces and find out if it's worth the £1000 asking price.

Utilising an OLED panel manufactured by LG, the Corsair Xeneon 27QHD240 is a very attractive monitor on paper. We know how good OLED screens are for gaming, and driving competitive multiplayer titles at 240Hz doesn't require that much GPU horsepower either. Let's see what this screen can do.
