Product Overview

AOC AGON AG493UCX2 is a mainstream 49-inch DQHD ultra-wide 1800R-curved gaming monitor in AOC's 2021 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel.
Notably, this monitor supports HDR up to DisplayHDR 400. Its 1800R curvature provides a more immersive visual experience. In terms of color reproduction, one can expect above average performance. The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty and bright.. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.
Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.
