Six new AGON monitors are expected to be released in 2026, with an anticipated announcement at CES 2026. The lineup may include five 27-inch models and a 21.1-inch TN panel, as per information from an ITHome leak. AOC is reportedly working on a 165Hz 5K panel that can also run at 330Hz in dual mode at 1440p resolution.

One of the most noteworthy monitors from this leak is the 27-inch QHD model that supports 500 Hz in 1440p and 1000 Hz in 1080p (also in double mode) by default.
It would be the initial monitor of its kind, surpassing the speed of numerous 720 Hz monitors like those from ASUS and Acer. Additionally, it would exceed the resolution of these monitors as they are restricted to 720p.
Two models from HKC and KOORUI also offer 750 Hz support.
Dual mode monitors typically utilize half of the native resolution for double mode settings, which means the resolution may be 720p instead of 1080p. This should be confirmed through the official announcement.
Below is the translated version of the list that was leaked on ITHome.
1. A 27-inch monitor with 5K resolution and a refresh rate of 165 Hz or a QHD resolution with 330 Hz in dual mode; 2. A 27-inch monitor with UHD resolution and a refresh rate of 160 Hz in dual mode featuring AI; 3. A 27-inch monitor with QHD resolution and a refresh rate of 500 Hz or FHD resolution with 1000 Hz in dual mode; 4. A 27-inch monitor with QHD resolution and a refresh rate of 420 Hz utilizing circular polarization; 5. A 27-inch monitor with QHD resolution and a refresh rate of 360 Hz incorporating PULSAR technology and an “effect of 1000 Hz”; 6. A 24.1-inch and a 400-inch TN panel monitor with an undisclosed refresh rate.
General attributes
The new models will feature AGON’s latest design improvements, introduce a new on-screen display menu, and offer support for customizable buttons. The gaming AI feature will automatically enhance the game graphics according to the specific game genre.
And this is a pattern that is expected to grow in the upcoming years.
The monitor labeled PULSAR that achieves a refresh rate of 1000 Hz is likely the AG276QSG monitor, which was introduced in September 2024.
