Dell’s Alienware has unveiled the AW2725Q, a 27-inch 4K QD-OLED gaming monitor boasting a 240Hz refresh rate. Following in the footsteps of similar products from Asus, Samsung, and MSI, this monitor is crafted to compete within the high-end gaming display segment. Let’s take a look at its important specifications.
Alienware AW2725Q Details
The Alienware AW2725Q showcases a 26.5-inch QD-OLED screen with remarkable 4K resolution. It provides 99% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage and Delta E<2 color accuracy, allowing for bright and realistic visuals. This display is designed with an infinite contrast ratio and comes with Dolby Vision HDR and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certifications, offering outstanding HDR performance for an immersive experience like no other.
Features and Performance
Additionally, the monitor includes Creator Mode, which is perfect for gamers who also produce content. This feature lets users toggle between DCI-P3 and sRGB color spaces and tweak gamma settings, providing flexibility for both work and play. The monitor usually shines at a brightness of 250 nits but can peak at an impressive 1000 nits when in HDR mode, ensuring bright highlights in a range of lighting conditions. For fluid gameplay, the AW2725Q is compatible with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, NVIDIA G-Sync, and VESA Adaptive-Sync Display 240 standards, effectively eliminating screen tearing and stuttering for a smooth gaming experience.
Durability and Design
This monitor is equipped with AI-powered burn-in prevention technology that keeps an eye on the images displayed and adjusts accordingly to reduce the chances of OLED burn-in and image retention. It also features an anti-burn-in graphite layer to boost its longevity. Alienware supports this product with a three-year warranty that covers burn-in, giving users confidence in their purchase.
Alienware’s new AW30 design language makes its debut with the AW2725Q, merging sci-fi looks with practical elements. The monitor includes 360-degree ventilation, smart cable management, and a compact base for improved desk organization. Moreover, it offers an easy-to-use On-Screen Display User Interface and full compatibility with Alienware Command Center 6.6 for personalizing settings.
Connectivity Options
On the connectivity front, the monitor features a DisplayPort 1.4, two HDMI 2.1 ports that enable 4K at 240Hz, and eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) for Dolby Atmos passthrough. However, it does not include USB-C video input but makes up for this with a USB-A hub and a USB-C port that provides 15W charging.
