You may not know BOE, but you may use its products. It is the Chinese display giant that offers its displays to many well-known brands like Huawei, Asus, and Apple. Competitor of Samsung Display, BOE manufactures LCD, LED or Oled screens and relies on the technological excellence of its panels.
It is on this last subject that the giant wanted to put a spotlight with the presentation of a screen for players.

The connection will go through DisplayPort with an 8-bit display.
