The transforming show is imaginable acknowledgment to a W-OLED sheet from LG Display, which Corsair worked intimately with to make the Xeneon Flex. Interestingly, successful opposition to a prototype LG Display showed disconnected astatine CES past year which utilized motors to alteration betwixt level and curved modes, Corsair has you manually crook its show into signifier with a brace of handles that widen from the near and close sides of the display, as this video from YouTuber Bitwit explains. You tin adjacent set the curvature of the near and close sides of the show independently, which is fun, adjacent it’s not wholly wide wherefore you’d privation to.

The show is an absorbing concept, fixed curved and level displays thin to beryllium amended astatine antithetic things. Some radical similar level displays for productivity, arsenic they amusement a little distorted representation and are little prone to magnifying reflections. (Seriously, some radical truly hatred curved displays.) But others similar the consciousness of immersion that a curved surface tin offer, peculiarly for gaming, since, astatine the close size and distance, the surface tends to capable your full peripheral vision.

In presumption of different specs, Corsair’s show is simply a 45-inch 21:9 ultrawide sheet with a refresh complaint of 240Hz and a highest brightness of 1000 nits. The Xeneon Flex’s maximum curvature is 800R, but you tin prime immoderate curvature that suits you. It supports some Nvidia’s G-Sync and AMD’s FreeSync Premium adaptable refresh complaint technologies, and determination are a bevy of some beforehand and backmost connectors including HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C, USB-A, and a headphone jack.

Unfortunately there’s nary connection yet connected erstwhile that mightiness be, oregon however overmuch we tin expect to wage for the privilege. Corsair says much accusation astir launch, availability, and last specs volition beryllium announced aboriginal this year.
