If you're a serious gamer, particularly if you enjoy immersive experiences with ultra-wide panoramic views, the Acer Predator X45 might be a compelling choice with its wider screen, excellent refresh rate, and deepest contrasts thanks to its OLED technology. However, for precise photo editing, general productivity, and sharp 4K content viewing, the Innocn 27M2V offers superior text clarity and image sharpness due to its higher resolution on a smaller screen, which also makes it more suitable for a variety of tasks at a lower price. Keep in mind the Acer has a curved display that enhances gaming and movie watching, while the Innocn provides more accurate colors for professional photo and video editing. Give Feedback

Display Ninja

Rob Shafer | January 2024
"Thanks to the wide color gamut, games and videos will look even more vibrant than the standard wide gamut displays (such as LG’s Nano IPS with 98% DCI-P3 and ~90% Adobe RGB, for instance), especially when it comes to blue, cyan and green shades. All in all, if you want a 27″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with a mini LED FALD backlight, the Innocn 27M2V is currently the best model available."
