If color accuracy and photo editing are top priorities, consider the Asus PA27DCE, which offers superior color fidelity and is well-suited for tasks like digital photo and print photo editing. Its higher screen resolution will also benefit detail-oriented work. However, if you are an avid gamer looking for a more immersive experience with fast refresh rates, the LG 45GR95QE with its wider aspect ratio might be the better choice, despite its slightly lower resolution. Both have OLED panels that provide infinite contrast and striking HDR performance, but the Asus might not cater as well to the needs of high-refresh-rate gaming as the LG does. Give Feedback

Phil Hayton | August 2023
"The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a brilliant ultrawide gaming monitor that'll dominate your desk, and its 800R curve serves to trick the senses. It's ridiculously pricey, and 4K fans may notice the difference with this 4K panel, but its OLED capabilities and arsenal of features almost justify its price tag. Just make sure you've got decent PC specs and plenty of space for this brute before parting with any cash."
