AOC has officially unveiled the AGON PRO AGP277QKD, a cutting-edge gaming monitor integrating WOLED dual-mode technology. This flagship model impresses with an unprecedented refresh rate, delivering QHD resolution at 540Hz and HD resolution at an astounding 720Hz, a new milestone in consumer gaming displays.
Equipped with a 26.5-inch WOLED panel based on LG Display’s fourth-generation Primary RGB Tandem WOLED technology, the AGP277QKD blends ultra-fast speed with premium visual quality and enhanced panel efficiency. This advanced panel significantly improves response times and image fidelity, meeting the demanding standards of competitive esports.
Visual Performance and Color Accuracy
The monitor offers a remarkable gray-to-gray response time of just 0.02 ms, ensuring fluid motion rendering suitable for the highest-level competitive gaming scenarios. It covers 99.5% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and supports 10-bit color depth, resulting in rich, vibrant colors. Factory calibration achieves an average Delta E below 1, guaranteeing professional-grade color accuracy.
In addition, the AGP277QKD carries the VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification. The display brightness typically sits at 300 nits but can peak at 1,500 nits during HDR content playback. This capability delivers striking contrast and enhanced detail visibility in dark scenes, crucial for immersive gameplay.
Eye Comfort and OLED Longevity
To enhance prolonged usage comfort, AOC applies an Anti-Glare Low Reflection (AGLR) coating that minimizes screen reflections. The hardware includes a low blue light filter and flicker-free technology, both aimed at reducing eye strain during extended gaming sessions.
Recognizing common OLED concerns such as burn-in, AOC introduces the OLED Care Suite. This feature incorporates several burn-in protection mechanisms designed to preserve panel lifespan without sacrificing performance, even during intense and prolonged gaming use.
Gaming Features Tailored for Esports
Targeted at competitive gamers, the AGP277QKD supports Adaptive-Sync and is fully compatible with Nvidia G-Sync technology. This ensures tear-free gameplay with synchronized frame rates.
Additional pro gaming features include:
- FPS and RTS display modes for optimized visibility.
- Dynamic crosshair overlays to enhance aiming accuracy.
- Dark area enhancement tools that reveal hidden details.
- Real-time refresh rate monitoring.
- Custom color adjustment tools to suit competitive demands.
The monitor’s rear houses a Light FX RGB system with 14 preset lighting effects, music synchronization capability, and over one million color combinations, contributing to a premium gaming atmosphere.
Connectivity and Design Highlights
Connectivity options are comprehensive with two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 2.1, a USB-B upstream port, and three USB-A 5Gbps downstream ports. Built-in stereo speakers rated at 5W each provide basic audio output without the need for external speakers.
Design-wise, the AGP277QKD sports an ultra-thin profile at 5.4 mm thickness and a minimal 1.8 mm micro bezel for maximum screen immersion. The ergonomic stand supports height adjustment, tilt, swivel, and pivot. Features like a quick-release mechanism and a retractable headphone hook enhance usability. The monitor also supports Picture-by-Picture (PBP) and Picture-in-Picture (PIP) modes to boost multitasking efficiency.
