"Sets a new standard for affordable QD-OLED gaming monitors": I tested Alienware's $349 AW2726DM display, and there's no way it won't be massively popular

A widescreen monitor on a wooden desk displays the vibrant "Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty" menu, featuring neon lights and a futuristic cityscape.

When Alienware announced a $349 QD-OLED gaming monitor earlier this year, I noted that it would almost certainly become one of the most popular options out there, assuming it met its budget promises. Until the AW2726DM, most OLED gaming monitors were somewhere around $500 when not on sale.

Eager to test it out myself, I got hold of a review unit that's now been front and center on my desk for nearly a month. I've been using it for gaming, of course, but also for some photo editing and general work during the day.
