This news is obtained from the company’s official tweet, this monitor will be sold in the range of USD 1,299. Dell first unveiled a 34-inch curved gaming display at CES that promises ultra-high contrast OLED displays with enhanced brightness, color range, and uniformity.

Reporting from Engadget (15/2), Samsung’s QD-OLED technology uses organic blue light-emitting diodes that pass through quantum dots to produce red and green colors. Compared to standard OLED, which uses a compound blue and yellow OLED. Blue has the strongest light energy, so QD-OLED in theory offers better brightness and efficiency. Other advantages include a longer life, better viewing angles, and less potential for burn-in.
