InnoLux Goes Fast and Large with 4K 240 Hz 50-inch Gaming Monitor Panel

[TheLostSwede]

There's no shortage of large gaming monitors on the market, but to date, almost all of them have been stuck at the same 120 Hz refresh rate as you'd see on higher-end TVs. InnoLux had a new 50-inch panel on display at Touch Taiwan that's capable of 240 Hz refresh rate, something that is still quite rare in this segment, especially as it's a 4K display panel. In all fairness, it's a TV by all intents, just without a tuner and it might appeal to console gamers, but it's not all good news.

InnoLux went with a-si NPVA technology for the panel, in other words, this is a modern VA panel, with the potential ghosting issues that VA panels suffer from. On the other hand, InnoLux claims support for FreeSync Premium Pro support with a VRR range from 48 to 240 Hz. The panel also has a contrast ratio of 7000:1, but no brightness details were given. That said, FreeSync Premium Pro requires HDR support, although it doesn't specify what kind of HDR, but it means the panel will at least support 400 cd/m² in HDR mode. It's also said to support 96 percent of the DCI-P3 colour gamut, suggesting good colour reproduction and it's said to have a 2 ms grey to grey response time.

Man is it just me or is every single stat really bad on this?

50 inch 16:9 will never be a monitor, that's just a TV. 42 inch is the smallest standard TV size. 32 inch is the largest standard monitor size.

End of story. 50 inches is not a monitor, it is a TV. None of the other stats matter.

Not much size difference from the 48" LG OLED a lot of the early OLED 4k 120hz people adopted, static contrast ratio of 7000:1 is far better than IPS panels and will make the screen look a lot nicer, and the refresh rate is a new top tier spec too. Yes there are downsides, like when not looking directly on axis at the screen you get contrast shift, and colors arent quite as accurate and vibrant as IPS, but I would hardly say that every stat is bad for this monitor. Most are quite good.

For a VA panel or conventional LCD at all? Nah that's rather good.
