MSI have introduced their new PRO MAX OLED 271UPJW12 monitor, the world’s first to make use of a brand new Inkjet printed (IJP) OLED panel from TCL CSOT, a brand new competitor within the OLED monitor panel section. It’s a 27″ sized display with a 3840 x 2160 “4K” decision, an RGB-stripe sub-pixel structure and a 120Hz refresh charge and it’s aimed toward skilled customers relatively than gaming, a part of MSI’s PRO MAX line-up. It’s received a white design aesthetic and a variety of recent connectivity and comfort options.
MSI PRO MAX OLED 271UPJW12 specs
The display is 27″ in measurement with a flat format and presents a 3840 x 2160 “4K” decision and 164 PPI pixel density. That is ever so barely decrease than the 166 PPI of present 27″ class OLED displays since these are precisely 26.5″ in measurement, and this panel is nearer to the complete 27″ at 26.9″ exactly.
The panel has an RGB-stripe sub-pixel structure for improved picture and textual content readability, avoiding any potential fringing points which can impression non-standard sub pixel layouts, though to be honest these are nearly fully eradicated on panels with this excessive a pixel density anyway. Nonetheless, a real RGB-stripe structure will probably be optimum and welcome by many customers.
In different specs there’s a 120Hz refresh charge, supported by adaptive-sync for VRR, not as excessive as different 27″ 4K panels which attain 240Hz within the gaming section, however this needs to be satisfactory for this meant market. There’s a 0.1ms G2G response time spec, 300 nits brightness (SDR), 178/178 viewing angles, 10-bit color depth and a large color gamut protecting 99.1% DCI-P3, 94.2% Adobe RGB and ~132.1% sRGB. It additionally comes manufacturing unit calibrated with a dE < 2 and Pantone Validated for color accuracy.
The panel has a matte anti-glare coating, though it’s not clear if that is factory-provided, or added on high by MSI as a part of their PRO MAX vary.
On the subject of HDR the display is licensed below the VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 tier, a step up really from the present 27″ 4K QD-OLED displays in the marketplace which attain TB400. There’s a peak brightness spec of 1000 nits as effectively though that is no greater than present QD-OLED choices.
Connectivity and Options
Connectivity contains 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 1x USB type-C (with DP Alt mode and 15W energy supply) and 2x HDMI 2.1, together with 2x USB-A knowledge ports and a headphone connection. A KVM change perform and PiP/PbP modes are supported. The stand presents a full vary of tilt, peak, swivel and rotate changes.
OLED Care
MSI’s ‘OLED Auto Care’ characteristic can be included. In contrast to typical OLED safety that forces disruptive pauses for OLED refreshes, this superior expertise calculates and applies Information Counting Compensation (DCC) dynamically in real-time. This absolutely automated, background-operating expertise eliminates intrusive prompts, offering a really uninterrupted workflow and gaming expertise.
Eye Care
In keeping with the press launch, “the PRO MAX OLED 271UPJW12 prioritizes your well being with MSI EyesErgo expertise. It options TÜV-certified {hardware} low blue mild and flicker-free applied sciences to make sure optimum eye consolation. Moreover, the IJP OLED is licensed with the Eyesafe 3.0 certification by natively limiting dangerous blue mild emissions to twenty% or much less, and it additionally meets the Circadian Safety Issue (CPF) customary. This CPF compliance targets the precise mild waves affecting sleep hormones, stopping nighttime display publicity from disrupting your sleep high quality.”
IJP OLED Panels
The OLED panel used on this new monitor is from TCL CSOT (TCL China Star Optoelectronics Expertise), a Chinese language primarily based panel producer who at the moment are providing a substitute for the panels from Samsung Show (QD-OLED) and LG Show (WOLED) which have to this point dominated the OLED monitor market. That is their first OLED monitor panel to go in to mass manufacturing, which we introduced you information about again in March. They’ve been producing monitor LCD panels for a very long time, however now they’re branching out in to the OLED house.
One of many key manufacturing capabilities TCL CSOT have employed is “Inkjet printing” (IJP). As they describe it, that is “an modern manufacturing course of that deposits natural light-emitting supplies with excessive precision onto substrates utilizing superior printing methods. It delivers wonderful color efficiency, excessive decision, vitality effectivity, and cost-effectiveness, making it best for a variety of purposes from small units to giant panels.”
TCL CSOT has been investing in IJP OLED R&D for over a decade with panel merchandise throughout numerous sectors like automotive, cellular, tablets and now displays. That is supported by their new 8.6-generation Inkjet Printing OLED (IJP OLED) manufacturing line in Guangzhou, China, known as “t8”, which formally broke floor on 21 October 2025.
Pricing and availability
MSI are nonetheless finalising their press launch for this display together with pricing and availability info, so we’ll replace this information piece as quickly as we have now extra info, hopefully subsequent week. Early reviews primarily based on a now-deleted information piece could also be outdated, so we’ll dangle on earlier than we affirm these particulars.
A part of the attract of IJP OLED is meant to be in easier and decrease price manufacturing, so in time this might assist make OLED displays extra aggressive nonetheless. However it’s doubtless (possible?) that early displays won’t profit from main financial savings as it is a new panel manufacturing, new course of and it’ll take a while earlier than this ramps up in quantity.
Extra data on pricing and availability once we get it.
