If you prioritize a larger screen and superior contrast for an immersive gaming experience, the AOC AG456UCZD with its OLED technology is suitable, especially for dark environments. However, the Innocn 27M2U offers higher resolution, which is better for detailed tasks and productivity, with excellent colors for photo and video editing. The Innocn is more affordable, making it a strong choice for daily use and professional work. For competitive gamers, the lower response time and OLED's clear motion may benefit the AOC. In contrast, the Innocn's better text clarity and image sharpness are advantages for media consumption and work. Give Feedback

Forbes
Mark Sparrow | November 2022
"The Innocn 27MU2 screen isn’t built to Apple standards, but it’s robust enough for desktop use and surprisingly lightweight, considering its image quality. The stand is rock steady and adjustable, plus the screen can be wall mounted. There are plenty of input options plus the ability to display two sources on screen at the same time."
