Flanders Scientific XMP310 is a 31.5″ reference monitor for HDR and SDR workflows. It features a QD-OLED panel with a UHD resolution and a peak brightness of 1000 nits. The XMP310 sports 12 BNC connectors for input/output, 3-pin XLR for DC power, and a fanless aluminum chassis design. It is available now for an introductory price of $9,995. Flanders Scientific Inc (FSI) is a US-based company producing high-end monitors for quite a long time and is well-known in the post-production world. We wrote about their BM241 monitor back in 2021, for instance. Their latest HDR and SDR reference monitor uses the QD-OLED technology and features a 31.5” UHD panel. Let’s take a look at it. FSI XMP series with QD-OLED panels With the XMP series of monitors, FSI for the first time brought QD-OLED (quantum-dot OLED) technology into the field of professional reference monitors. The advantage of the technology, as FSI puts it, is that it is truly RGB additive for white, so it avoids color volume limitations of other OLED panels. FSI XMP monitors – QD-OLED advantage.

Flanders scientific claims this improves highlight detail by reducing backlight zone flaring, and minimizes halation and color shifts. Last year, the company was awarded the HPA Engineering Excellence award for their 55” XMP550 monitor, and shortly after...
