Tomorrow, the Touch Taiwan trade show will begin in Taipei, and AUO is set to showcase a range of new products at the event. TPU will be attending, so we'll have some hands-on coverage this week. One of the most significant announcements from AUO is a 49-inch ultrawide, curved 5K display panel that supports refresh rates of up to 360 Hz. The company did not disclose the actual resolution in its press release, but we'll find out at the trade show what 5K resolution means in this case. It's most likely 5120 x 1440, as this is what most 32:9 5K displays offer today.
Additionally, AUO will showcase a 24-inch, 540 Hz, 1080p display panel that the company claims will "eliminate screen tearing, stuttering, and ghosting issues." There's no mention of the display panel used, but it's most likely a TN panel. AUO will also have a 17.3-inch, transparent Micro LED notebook panel on display, which the company says will enhance the display quality under glare. We hope to see a demonstration of this at the trade show.
