The ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH is the pick for people who care about color and contrast. Asus lists a 15.6-inch Full HD OLED panel covering 100% of DCI-P3 with a Delta E under 2, a 100,000:1 contrast ratio, HDR-10 and a 1 ms response time. It weighs 650 g and is 5 mm at its thinnest. There are three USB-C ports and a mini HDMI port on the sides: two USB-C ports carry DisplayPort Alt Mode and power, and the third is only for the power adapter. A proximity sensor puts the screen into power saving when you walk away, which Asus says also helps prevent burn-in. The smart case protects the screen and folds into a stand, and a tripod socket on the back gives more positions, though the tripod is extra. At $309.00 it costs more than the LCD picks for the same 1080p resolution. We compared documented features and published prices.
