According to reports, the panel used in the display may be AUO’s 240Hz TN screen or AUO’s new 360Hz gaming screen. However, according to past product calculations, if the AUO 360Hz panel is used to manufacture the display, it is almost impossible for the price to be within 1,000 yuan.

At present, Xiaomi has launched five monitors – the 34-inch Mi Curved Display is priced at 2199 yuan ($323). There is also a 23.8-inch Mi Display priced at 679 yuan (~$99), a 27-inch 165Hz version of the Mi Display is priced at 2199 yuan ($323), and the Mi Display 1A 23.8-inch is priced at 699 yuan ($102). Xiaomi also has a display under the Redmi brand dubbed Redmi display 1A 23.8 inches priced at 599 yuan ($88).

According to data from OVI, the display with the highest refresh rate on the online retail platform is 280Hz. At present, there is an upward trend of monitors with 144Hz, 165Hz, 240Hz and 280Hz refresh rates and sales volume is also increasing steadily.
