26.5″ MSI Pro Max 271UPX12G – Full Specifications
The MSI Pro Max 271UPX12G is a 26.5-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor for people who spend their day in documents, photos and video and want deeper blacks than an IPS panel can give.
Overview
The MSI Pro Max 271UPX12G is a 26.5-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor for people who spend their day in documents, photos and video and want deeper blacks than an IPS panel can give. At 165 ppi, text looks very crisp, and the 120 Hz refresh keeps scrolling smooth. A USB-C port carries video, though only 15 W of power, so a laptop still needs its own charger. Two 2.5 W speakers handle calls, and the stand raises the screen by 150 mm. Weight with the stand is 6.6 kg.
