If budget is a concern and you mainly engage in casual gaming or productivity tasks, the AOC 24G2SPU will serve you well, especially due to its high refresh rate and solid response time. However, if you're a more serious gamer, particularly in competitive gaming, or you want an immersive experience for HDR gaming and media consumption with exceptional color and contrast, the Dell Alienware AW3423DWF is worth the higher cost. Its OLED technology offers superior image clarity, contrast, and HDR performance. Keep in mind that for tasks like digital photo editing, both monitors perform well, but the Dell has a slight edge with better color coverage. Give Feedback

Jeremy Laird | May 2023
"It may seem like a minor tweak, but the addition of a glossy anti-glare coating makes all the difference. It really lets the OLED panel rip. That this revised "F" model is also cheaper than the OG Alienware OLED and the similarly glossy Philips competition seals the deal. This is our new favourite among the OLED monitor massive."
