If you prioritize a widescreen and top-tier contrast for an immersive gaming experience, the Acer Predator X45 with its OLED technology excels in HDR gaming and has a very sharp image. However, if you seek value for money with high resolution for detailed work, and good color accuracy for photo editing, the Nubia RedMagic provides a 4K screen that's also suited for HDR content. The Predator has a wider refresh rate range for smoother gameplay, but if budget is a concern and you need a monitor that is better suited for productivity and still performs well in gaming, the Nubia RedMagic is a compelling choice.
