To release something like this without using the best technology in the house would not make sense, so a 4K (3840×2160 pixels) IPS panel is chosen, the Koreans claim to cover more than 95% of the DCI-P3 color space. Curiously, this is the standard that Apple is getting into all their mobile screens, and also wants to peripherals from their computers.
