About this model
Text from the manufacturer, via Icecat.
New generation of XL series PC e-Sports monitors further enhance adjustment flexibility, as well as players’ comfort and convenience, allowing them to focus on their in-game performance.
Smaller Base – More Playing Space
New base is designed to take up less space while maintaining the same stability. This allows gamers more space in their setup for in-game movements and allows them the flexibility to make adjustments and play comfortably.
Fluid & flexible adjustment – More comfort in-game
We understand that each player has his/her own unique combination of monitor height and angle adjustment. With height adjustment & free tilt, players are able to setup quickly and conveniently resulting in a more comfortable playing environment.

XL Setting to Share™
Share your own settings with a teammate, friend or your fans. Save video profiles quickly and share conveniently through a simple user interface.
Quick Access Settings
The change to the user interface and S-Switch (XS250, optional) is more than just cosmetic. The redesigned interface provides you the ability to customize which FPS settings you would like to access quickly via quick menu, and then allows you to access them with one-touch. Setting up before games or during rounds is now much more convenient.
Make visual adjustments based on your in-game needs
Black eQualizer to increase visibility in dark scenes without overexposing the bright areas, Color Vibrance to adjust color setting and tone to differentiate enemy targets in-game, and Game modes to switch between presets for different game titles– these are all adjustments that allow players to play with their preferred visual settings.
No compromise in durability for aesthetics
During the design process, durability was not sacrificed for aesthetics. The LCD panel is better protected through a frame design that provides added resistance on the sides. This is especially useful when transporting the monitors to LAN events or BYOC’s.
