The Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) has just updated its DisplayHDR and ClearMR certifications, expanding its HDR and motion blur standards to accommodate advances in display technology. Electronic Equipment Security Association said its members will be showcasing new products that meet these new certification levels, ensuring users who buy monitors with 480 Hz update rates and HDR capabilities are getting the best value for their money.
An Intel representative said: “DisplayHDR True Black is one of VESA’s most successful standards, helping to unify the display ecosystem behind a common set of performance metrics to optimize launch display technology and enable products for home theater and gaming enthusiasts. A stunning visual experience. “OLED displays’ ability to achieve 1,000 nits of peak brightness for HDR content represents a major breakthrough for the technology and a key intersection for content creation applications. “
He added: “Since its launch two and a half years ago, adoption of our ClearMR standard has grown faster compared to DisplayHDR during the same period, demonstrating the program’s success in helping consumers compare motion blur usage. One of the true benchmarks for sports performance quality, since ClearMR was first introduced, VESA has been gradually adding new grades with enough differentiation to ensure they are meaningful and visible to highly adaptable gamers.
The VESA DisplayHDR True Black 1000 standard demonstrates the brightness of OLED screens, and the peak brightness of HDR content can now reach 1000 nits. VESA, on the other hand, has released three new grades of clear motion ratio indicators — ClearMR 15000, ClearMR 18000 and ClearMR 21000. Higher numbers indicate a greater proportion of clear pixels, with ClearMR 21000 indicating 195 times more clear pixels than blurred pixels.
We expect Gigabyte, MSI, LGSamsung and others have announced that they will take advantage of these new certification levels of displays International Consumer Electronics Show In 2025, LG announced that it would display a bendable 5K2K OLED gaming monitor. As a result, we expect a number of new OLED gaming monitors with ultra-high refresh rates to be available in the coming weeks, starting on January 8th.
