8K 120Hz gaming monitor unveiled by BOE, doubles its refresh rate at lower resolutions
Table of Contents
OLED monitors are becoming the go-to options due to the spectacular visuals they provide compared to TN and IPS panels, and the demand also seems to be ramping up with each passing year. However, during the recent SID Display Week 2025, BOE unveiled an 8K gaming monitor, which brings something new to the playing field, but there is competition, as we’ve already seen ASUS reveal its ProArt PA32KCX monitor.
Graphics in games, movies, and TV shows are continually improving, so to ensure the consumer base can enjoy every second of it, every brand is working toward developing and producing higher-quality panels for TVs and monitors.
BOE 8K 120Hz monitor
BOE is one of the largest producers of panels in the world, and the giant showcased its 31.5” 8K monitor, which sports an LCD panel and supports up to 120Hz. However, you can achieve 240Hz if you lower the resolution to 4K, which is a great addition.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t much information about the hardware, but we expect it’ll feature DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 to handle the bandwidth of such high resolutions. It is expected to go into production later in 2025. Additionally, several TVs were on display, featuring the latest miniLED UB Cell 4.0 ADS Pro panels that deliver the quality of an OLED but are likely to keep costs comparatively low.
BOE didn’t stop there. An 85” 4K panel was also showcased, which uses some new technology. It utilizes an RGB backlight that operates in sequential mode, where the RGB lights are synchronized to follow a specific order, and the color filter is removed.

The benefit of this is that the panel is more efficient, as only a third of the transistors are used, since there is no need for RGB sub-pixels. What this means is that if it is used in 8K panels, it would lower the cost, complexity, and power consumption, which would make mass production easier.
The cherry on top was the stereo 3D monitor, which utilized eye-tracking technology. Any object placed in front of it would be captured and displayed on the screen without lowering the quality, and it also supported vertical parallax. What that means is that the farther away the layers are, the slower they’ll move up and down.
To finish off their display, the representatives said that the base panel was a 16K development. So, it seems that the BOE has a lot of plans in the pipeline, and we’re excited to see what they come up with next.
