Overview

  • The 1,000Hz refresh rate is a significant leap from current market standards, which top out at 540Hz.
  • TCL's display maintains a 4K resolution, unlike many high-refresh-rate monitors that sacrifice resolution for speed.
  • Commercial availability of 1,000Hz monitors is expected within a few years, with OLED versions potentially arriving by 2027.
  • Current hardware and cable standards will need to evolve to fully support the capabilities of a 1,000Hz 4K display.
  • The advancement raises questions about the practical benefits and potential diminishing returns of ultra-high refresh rates.
