Response Time
Fastest response time on any laptop for motion clarity
For a display, response time is the time taken to replace one color with another: the faster the time, the better motion is reproduced. The diagram below shows a color transition from orange to yellow. On an ASUS Lumina OLED, this transition takes only 0.2 milliseconds, while on an LCD, it might take 10 ms or longer. This makes a lot of difference, since OLED colors and images look correct for most of the time a frame is displayed, whereas LCD images may be blurry during the transition process.
ASUS Lumina OLED displays have a 0.2 ms response time — the fastest of any laptop, and 50x faster4 than the average laptop LCD display. This ensures smoother fast-paced action scenes, low-latency gameplay, and subtle details like blur-free text scrolling. In effect, the smooth visuals on an OLED display can rival those on an LCD display with a much higher refresh rate.

Motion Clarity
Ultimate 120 Hz / 0.2 ms for exceptional motion clarity
The new premium ASUS Lumina OLED display with 120 Hz refresh rate and 0.2 ms pixel response time is incredibly smooth and clear. In fact, both surprisingly and counter-intuitively, the 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display is faster than a 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD IPS display — because it reduces ghosting to an indiscernible level. Simply put, this means even fast-moving visuals are smoother and clearer than ever.
Motion Clarity
How 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display has better motion clarity than 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD display
It seems counter-intuitive that a 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display could outperform a 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD display rival — so how is this possible? Well, the LCD panel takes precisely 6.06 ms to refresh each frame, but it takes another 3 ms of response time to process the correct colors. That’s a total of 9.06 ms to fully load the image. A 144 Hz / 12.5 ms LCD display takes even longer, at 19.44 ms to show the full, final frame of each image. But with its extreme-speed response, a 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display takes just 8.5 ms to process the same — making it even faster than a 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD display.

Color Volume
Color-perfect at any brightness
ASUS Lumina OLED laptops maintain a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut at both high and low brightness levels, while on a standard LCD laptop the color gamut is reduced dramatically at low brightness levels. At a gray-level brightness of 16 G, LCD laptops only have an 11% DCI-P3 color gamut, while ASUS Lumina OLED laptops maintain a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut.
Color Volume
OLED has 1.6x color volume compared to LCD
On conventional LCD displays, detail and color quality usually decrease dramatically as the brightness is reduced. But ASUS Lumina OLED laptops are able to show great detail at lower brightness settings due to their high contrast and their ability to maintain a wide color gamut at low brightness. When calculating the 3D color volume — which adds illumination to the traditional 2D color gamut — ASUS Lumina OLED displays have about a 60% higher color volume, offering better color performance at any brightness level.

Perceptual Brightness
OLED has much higher perceptual brightness
ASUS Lumina OLED laptops can maintain good color reproduction at any brightness level, so you can freely adjust the screen’s brightness to suit your working environment, while still enjoying exceptionally vivid colors. For example, in the living room environment (usually illuminated at about 100 lux), you only need 177 nits brightness in an OLED display to produce the same clear image as 400 nits brightness in an LCD display. At the lower brightness levels needed on OLED displays, there’s less harmful blue light emitted.

Contrast
True black: See the unseen
ASUS Lumina OLED laptops reproduce blacks perfectly. An OLED pixel consists of three sub-pixels, each with its own self-generated illumination: a Full HD (1920x1080) display has 2,073,600 pixels, which means it has 6,220,800 self-illuminated sub-pixels, compared to just a few dozen LED backlights in a Full HD LCD display. When displaying black on an OLED display, the pixel is simply turned off to produce the darkest possible black. This enables extremely crisp and clear images even in the darkest scenes. You’ll be surprised to see how many new details you’ll spot in your favorite movies!

Eye Care
70% blue-light reduction for eye care
Blue light is known to cause visual discomfort and disrupt sleep quality. However, due to the nature of the special organic lighting materials in an OLED display, ASUS Lumina OLED laptops emit 70% less harmful blue light7, and they’re also certified by TÜV Rheinland and SGS. More importantly, unlike traditional blue-light filters, shifting the spectrum means there’s no need to compromise color accuracy.

Eye Care
Eye care, even more critical for children
Since children’s eyes are not fully developed, with a more transparent lens and cornea, harmful blue light can penetrate the eye more easily, potentially causing premature aging of the retina. Research10 has shown that in a five-year-old child’s eyes, approximately 60% of the received blue-light emissions pass through to the retina, compared to only around 20% for a 60-year-old adult. With ASUS Lumina OLED displays, the significantly lower blue light levels mean better eye care for children.

ASUS OLED Care
Protecting your OLED display
ASUS Lumina OLED laptops come with an ASUS-exclusive OLED Care mechanism that’s proven to protect your OLED display. Image persistence, or burn-in11, 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 Pixel Refresh feature kicks in. We also include Pixel Shift technology, which moves displayed pixels slightly to avoid consistently showing static images on your desktop. 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.

When your laptop is idle for over 30 minutes, a specially designed Pixel Refresh screensaver kicks in. This significantly reduces the chance of burn-in by making sure all the pixels are illuminated and darkened equally.
Your displayed pixels would move slightly to avoid consistently showing static images on your desktop (more apps to be compatible). The shifting effect is barely visible and wouldn’t affect usage.
Hiding Windows Taskbar when not in use can avoid showing static images, and thus reduces the chance of burn-in.
* Feature is off by default due to Microsoft policies.
Enabling a semi-transparent effect on Windows Taskbar can avoid showing static image. In effect, when moving apps underneath the Taskbar, the pixels illuminating the Taskbar area display different colors.
Protection
Built to Last with your OLED display
ASUS is committed to delivering high-quality laptops that are built to last, and this commitment is reflected in the design and construction of the thermal system. The thermal system is carefully crafted to prevent any damage to the OLED display, ensuring that the display remains in top condition for as long as possible. But ASUS goes even further than that. The company also ensures that every laptop undergoes rigorous testing to meet US military-grade standards for durability. This means that your ASUS laptop is built to withstand harsh conditions and is able to withstand the rigors of everyday use without breaking down.
- Pantone validation may vary by panel configuration.
- Average tested result in MyASUS Splendid Display P3 and sRGB color gamut: Delta E < 1, +/- 0.5, and may vary by specification. Please note that the actual performance also may vary under different test procedures, equipment and patterns.
- To further maximize the protection of your OLED laptop, ASUS has included OLED Care settings such as pixel refresh and pixel shifting, which are turned on by default. It’s important to note that if any burn-in issues do occur within the warranty period, which might vary by countries, ASUS offers a free exchange service for the affected OLED laptop as long as the user did not manually turn off the OLED Care functions.

- The characteristics of an OLED display can eventually change over long periods of use, leading to visible changes. This is completely normal, and can cause behavior such as image burn-in or persistence: this means that a faint ghost of an image remains visible even when it’s replaced by a new image. These effects are more likely to occur if a non-moving (static) high-contrast image is displayed for an excessively long time.
