QD OLED technology
CRT displays with their large backsides have given way to faster-changing monitor technology. However, this speed makes it tougher for gamers and experts to keep track of what important when choosing a display.
MSI’s new QD-OLED monitors combine two technologies to give a breathtaking visual experience with OLED’s excellent blacks and contrast without losing brightness or brilliant, true colours.
Learn about LED, LCD, OLED, and QD monitors
When shopping for the finest monitor for your setup, you may encounter a sea of confusing technical words. they’ll help you understand monitors and panels like LED, LCD, etc.
LED vs. LCD Monitors: Memories of the Past
LCD monitors employ a liquid crystal layer in its display, thus their name. LCD monitors employ liquid crystal layers between other layers.
Light Source (left-most layer) determines monitor backlighting technology. Older LCD displays utilised cold cathode fluorescent lights; later ones use LEDs.

About these ‘LED’ monitors?
All LCD monitors with LED illumination were marketed as such.No offence. The differentiation was significant, therefore it wasn’t needless. LED and LCD displays are the same in today’s industry, where fluorescent lamps are no longer utilised.
Discovering IPS, TN, and VA Technologies
How do you classify IPS, TN, and VA displays if LCD and LED are the same? These are LCD technologies.
They show how to align LCD layer liquid crystals for a desired outcome.
Compare these LCD panels:
- Liquid crystals positioned parallel to the glass layer make up IPS panels.
- Twisted Nematic (TN) Panels: One of the earliest LCD panels, TN panels use twisted liquid crystals 90 degrees.
- Vertical Alignment Panels: These employ vertically aligned liquid crystals.
Each LCD panel type has pros and cons. IPS panels provide the highest colour accuracy, VA panels have great contrasts, and TN panels have the quickest reaction speeds.
OLED Monitors Explained: An O in the LED
As indicated before, LED monitors employ backlighting technology. A monitor with Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) backlighting is also called an OLED monitor.
Conventional LEDs use inorganic (silicon, gallium, etc.) light-producing elements, whereas OLEDs use organic (carbon-based).
They’ve been making standard LEDs smaller, but they’re still too big to illuminate each pixel. LED backlights can only emit one colour, hence they need a colour filter to show many colours.
However, OLEDs self-emit. This allows each particle (pixel) to be controlled and ‘turned off’ independently, improving contrast and black levels. Additionally, they can show several colours without a filter!Due of their low brightness, OLEDs aren’t ideal for bright situations.

What is QD/Quantum Dot?
Quantum Dots, 2-10 nanometer semiconductor particles, have unique optical and electrical capabilities owing to their size. Quantum Dot size-color relationships are fascinating uses for this particle.
The energy levels of this semiconductor particle may be adjusted to control its size. As seen in the figure above, they emit a variety of display colours as their size increases.
Quantum Dots in displays provide a brilliant, colourful image unsurpassed by any other consumer technology due to their great colour precision.
For years, standard LED displays have employed Quantum Dots, but they’ve struggled with black levels, contrast ratios, etc.OLED panels fixed most of these difficulties, however also reduced brightness and colour vibrancy.
Combining QDs and OLEDs: Setting the Stage for Beauty
QD-OLED monitors offer a stunning spectrum of colours without sacrificing contrast or vibrance by combining Quantum Dot technology with OLEDs’ inky blacks!
A self-emitting layer (OLED) underneath a QD layer for colour makes a QD-OLED monitor simpler than an LCD screen.
Do MSI QD-OLED Monitors Outperform LCDs?
Short answer: Yes.
However, they have drawbacks that traditional screens don’t. First, how are they better?They provide best-in-class features, graphics, and specs that gamers, creators, and casual users care about.
Refresh and Response Times for QD-OLED
Quick, competitive gaming requires a quick, high-refresh rate display. QD-OLED screens accomplish this.
The newest organic light-emitting diode technology’s 360 Hz refresh rate and 0.03 ms reaction time may make MSI’s QD-OLED models better than gaming displays. Frame rate and refresh rate adaptive sync enhances playability.
