If excellent contrast and color accuracy for professional photo editing and vivid HDR gaming are top priorities and you're comfortable with a higher price tag, the Asus PA27DCE (W-OLED) is a strong option. On the other hand, if you're looking for a more affordable monitor that still delivers good color precision and better brightness, with added benefits for both casual and competitive gaming thanks to a higher refresh rate and variable refresh rate support, the Nubia RedMagic GM001J (IPS MiniLED) would be a wise choice. The Nubia also provides more versatility for media consumption and productivity tasks at a lower cost. Give Feedback
