Corsair has unveiled the Xeneon Flex 45WQHD240, a 45-inch OLED monitor that allows the user to physically bend the screen. It transitions from flat to an 800R curve depending on the task: straight for design or curved for gaming. A proposal that blends versatility and visual spectacle without needing to choose between two monitors.
The mechanics behind extreme flexibility 🛠️
The 45-inch LG Display OLED panel offers WQHD resolution (3440x1440) and 240 Hz. The integrated mechanical system allows manual curvature adjustment via side handles, with a range from completely flat to 800R. OLED technology ensures deep blacks and response times of 0.03 ms. Brightness reaches 1000 nits in HDR peaks, though not reaching the figures of mini-LED monitors. It includes DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 for consoles.
When bending the screen also bends your wallet 💸
The Xeneon Flex arrives with a price that hurts more than a bad game. For what it costs, you could buy a flat monitor and a curved one, but of course, you wouldn't have the pleasure of grabbing the screen like a piece of toast to adjust the curvature. Ideal for those who want to feel like a magician bending reality, even if they later have to explain to their friends why they pay so much for a monitor that doesn't fold for storage.
