If color accuracy is crucial for tasks like photo editing, the Asus PA329C will serve you well with its wide color gamut and high AdobeRGB coverage. However, if you prioritize a better balance between productivity, gaming, and media consumption, along with a higher brightness for HDR content, the Innocn 32M2V offers very good value, especially as it is often significantly less expensive. It also has a higher refresh rate, which is beneficial for smoother gameplay. The Asus might be the better choice for professional print photo editing, but for a mixed-use case with an eye on budget, the Innocn provides a compelling package. Give Feedback

"Even at 32 inches, it’s just five inches larger than most professional display monitors, the ASUS ProArt Display PA329CV monitor seems a lot bigger. The color accuracy on the unit I received was excellent, and viewing high-resolution image files on it was pleasing to the eyes. It’s Calman verified, so you can be assured of Hollywood studio-quality color straight out of the box. With multiple USB ports on the monitor and HDMI and USB-C connectivity options, it stands up to the well-established Benq PhotoVue series of monitors."

"Whlie not perfect, the Innocn 32M2V is an excellent HDR gaming monitor if you want a 32″ 4K high refresh rate display – just make sure you’re familiar with all its flaws. If you’ve been waiting for a 32″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with proper HDR support, the Innocn 32M2V is the first model available at a reasonable price."
