Product Note
The maximum refresh rate is 240Hz. Actual performance depends on the connected device, graphics hardware, cable, input, and display settings. The 0.3ms figure is a minimum advertised response-time rating and should not be interpreted as typical performance in every mode. HDR10 signal support does not guarantee high-end HDR brightness or local dimming. The stand supports tilt adjustment but not height adjustment. Confirm regional warranty terms and included accessories with the supplier.
