Corsair has started taking pre-orders for the XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240, nearly four months on from unveiling the monitor during Gamescom 2022. Corsair has only opened pre-orders in the US for the time being, but the monitor will be available later today in other markets like Europe and the UK. Presumably, Corsair will offer the XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 in other markets too.
As we discussed in August, Corsair advertises the XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 as the first 45-inch, 21:9 and bendable OLED display. Effectively, Corsair has taken the LG W-OLED panel from the UltraGear 45GR95QE and adapted it to create a curved monitor on demand. In summary, the XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 offers the following specifications:

The XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 costs US$1,999.99 in the US before taxes; Corsair offers free shipping. Conversely, the monitor will retail in the UK for £2,099.99, or £1,679.99 excluding VAT. Corsair has not announced Eurozone pricing yet, although we would not be surprised if it launched there for nearer €2,399. While Corsair stresses that it has a limited quantity of XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 units, it has not confirmed how many monitors it has or plans to produce.
