Let's start the week with some bad news in form of delays:

 

Acer Delays Predator X27 4k HDR GSync monitor to next year

In a bit of a surprizing move Acer has announced that their Predator X27 4k HDR monitor is being delayed. The G-Sync monitor can now be expected by next year in Q1 2018. Acer did not explain as to why the monitor is delayed.

The new release date has been announced in a tweet from the company. The Predator X27 supports NVIDIA G-SYNC HDR at 4K. The monitor leverages Quantum Dot technology, offers a wider color range with higher brightness, deeper saturation and better accuracy to offer dramatically more vivid visuals with the Predator X27 supporting 99% of the Adobe RGB color space. With a Quantum Dot film that is coated with nano-sized dots of various types that emit very specific colored lights, the new displays can produce a wider color gamut compared to standard monitors, increasing color purity and efficiency.

 

Now we have to wait and see if Asus also delays their 4K HDR G-Sync monitor, meaning that the problem comes from AUO and its panel, or if they keep their stated launch date, which will mean that it's Acerwho has problems with this monitor.

My bet is AUO.
