OLED panels can't be as bright as monitors with backlights, including FALD and Mini LED options. The PA32DC achieves a maximum brightness of 500 nits in HDR (10% APL / patch size), or around 250 nits in full screen (100% APL). Like all OLED panels, the panel relies on "automatic brightness control" (ABL) to control the distribution of power across the panel, allowing maximum brightness for small areas, but meaning your maximum brightness will be lower for larger areas. If you want to know more about ABL and how it works, check out our recent article here. If you want to use a display without ABL when necessary, Asus proart offers a convenient "even brightness" mode in the OSD that limits the brightness to 250 nits to prevent this ABL from becoming less important. For creating and editing SDR content, the PA32DC is an excellent choice and the power of the OLED panel gives you exceptional image quality. The limited optimal brightness means that using the...
