Samsung's QD-OLED makes its way into another Gigabyte gaming monitor

At CES 2024, Gigabyte launched five monitors with Samsung’s QD-OLED display panels. One of them was AORUS FO32U2. Now, the company has launched a trimmed-down variant of that monitor, AORUS FO32U, and it also sports Samsung’s QD-OLED display panel. Let’s take a look at its price, availability details, and features.

Gigabyte has launched the AORUS FO32U by listing the monitor on its official website for many countries, including the United States of America and India. However, the company has neither announced the price nor the availability of the new monitor. We were also not able to find its listing on any major online shopping platform.

How does AORUS FO32U differ from AORUS FO32U2?

The AORUS FO32U has three downgrades compared to the AORUS FO32U2. First, it has a 165Hz refresh rate instead of a 240Hz refresh rate. Second, it comes with ClearMR 9000 certification instead of ClearMR 13000 certification. Third, it lacks RGB Fusion 2.0.
