If you prioritize digital and print photo editing with superior color accuracy, the Asus PA32DC with its high color gamut coverage and great contrast might be your preference, despite its higher price and lower refresh rate which makes it less suitable for gaming. On the other hand, if you enjoy immersive gaming and want a much wider, curved display with a higher refresh rate and better gaming features, the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 may be more appealing for you, also offering a good color gamut for productivity, but at a reduced cost compared to the Asus. Both monitors have OLED technology which means you will get deep blacks and vibrant colors regardless of your choice. Give Feedback
