Viewsonic XG272-2K OLED - BlurBusters Verified? BFI?

High Hz on OLED produce excellent strobeless motion blur reduction with fast GtG pixel response. It is easier to tell apart 60Hz vs 120Hz vs 240Hz on OLED than LCD, and more visible to mainstream. Includes WOLED and QD-OLED displays.

Viewsonic XG272-2K OLED - BlurBusters Verified? BFI?

Hi Chief, I just saw this product announcement for a new OLED from Viewsonic. The product page mentions BlurBusters Verified, but on the user guide pdf it mentions that there is BFI settings for "BFI Minimum Hz (+/-, 48~120)/1" and "BFI Strength (+/-, 50~100)/10", which would suggest the product could be Approved rather than Verified. Is that something you're able to comment on at this time?

the first blurbusters verified display is finally coming? that's so exciting! 4ms persistence without having to deal with double images due to inconsistent framerate & strobing is a huge step forward!

Tft central posted an article for this and shared portions of the manual, suggesting the bfi can be used between 48 and 120hz. The dip to 48hz - and absence of the higher grade green badge - suggest to me that between 48hz and xhz, the monitor will double strobe. Could be wrong though, maybe it didn't get the green badge because it can't do bfi at arbitrary refresh rates (ie, it's locked to 48/50/60/96/120, or some similar spread of fixed BFI compatible refreshes), or the "pulse width" (black frame time) isn't adjustable enough.

Would love to know what the single strobe range is - or what kind of performance we could expect in terms of out of the box accuracy to a variety of color spaces, etc. Other things I noted looking over the manual:

Switching to HDR is a manual process on the monitor (the instructions confirm windows has to be set to HDR "on" and then you can change the HDR setting on the monitor to "on" afterwards)

The color space (dci-p3, srgb, Adobe srgb, etc) is not exposed or user selectable. Not sure what will be used in which mode.

No oled care / pixel protection functions for the user to use. Either what's there is automatic or they don't exist.

The way HDR works suggests to me that if you want to use bfi, you'd have to turn vrr off in your driver and in the monitor before you can select it. This is largely nothing new though, as this is how it works on most (all?) other displays with bfi / backlight strobing.

This has NOT been confirmed and the US site for this monitor has no such certification

Is it true? I also have doubts, can I ask it?

You can ask anyone anything.
