Alienware AW3423DW: Quantum Dot OLED Renders Rival Monitors Obsolete

It’s rare to review a monitor with the potential to revolutionize the industry, but the Alienware AW3423DW could do exactly that. It packs a cutting-edge OLED panel with Quantum Dot technology at a price surprisingly competitive with high-end IPS ultrawide monitors.

Does this new Alienware make its peers obsolete? When it comes to 34-inch ultrawide monitors, yes—though this luxurious display isn’t quite perfect. Still, gamers will want to snatch the AW3423DW up without hesitation.

QD-OLED panel aside, the Alienware AW3423DW’s specifications are typical for an ultrawide gaming monitor. It packs a 34-inch screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 3,440 x 1,440. The monitor also claims 99.3% coverage of the DCI-P3 gamut which, though high, can be matched by some premium IPS panels.
