MSI has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Samsung Display and announced that its entire 2026 QD-OLED monitor lineup is based on the new Penta Tandem technology. These are panels with an updated five-layer structure, which should significantly increase brightness and durability. MSI began introducing Penta Tandem matrices back in early 2025, and is now fully transitioning to its use. The technology features a five-layer blue emitting layer structure and improved organic materials. This allows the panel to distribute energy more efficiently, shine brighter, and degrade more slowly. According to the company, compared to the previous four-layer design, light efficiency has increased by 1.3 times, and the panel's service life has doubled. One of the first monitors with the new panel was the MPG 272URX QD-OLED: the five-layer structure helped solve the problem of reduced brightness at high pixel density. For gamers, this means a richer 4K picture and less risk of screen burn-in. In 2026, six MSI monitor models with Penta Tandem technology will be released: MPG 341CQR QD-OLED X36; MAG 341CQP QD-OLED X28; MPG 322UR QD-OLED X24; MAG 321UP QD-OLED X24; MAG 272UP QD-OLED X24; MPG 272URX QD-OLED. |
