About this product
The MSI MPG 491CQPX QD-OLED is a 49-inch DQHD curved gaming monitor with QD-OLED technology. It features a 144Hz refresh rate (240Hz in some modes) and 0.03ms response time. The 32:9 aspect ratio provides an immersive ultrawide experience. It supports HDR 400 True Black and is G-Sync Compatible. Connectivity includes DisplayPort, HDMI 2.1, USB-C, and a USB hub. The stand offers tilt, swivel, and height adjustments.
Our take
The MSI MPG 491CQPX is an immersive ultrawide monitor with stunning QD-OLED image quality. The 49-inch curve wraps around your field of view, and the deep blacks make HDR content look incredible. The 240Hz refresh rate (when available) is buttery smooth, though the listed 144Hz in specs is a bit confusing. The built-in USB hub and HDMI 2.1 are great for connectivity. My main gripe is the SDR brightness, typical at only 250 nits, which is dim for a large screen. Also, the stand lacks pivot, which is understandable for this size. For productivity and gaming, it's a powerhouse.
