If you prioritize exceptional image quality for activities like HDR gaming, media consumption, and professional photo editing, the Asus PA32UCG-K with MiniLED technology offers top-notch brightness and color performance, making it an excellent choice despite its premium price. However, if budget is a concern and your focus is on productivity with good image quality, the Dell U2723QE still delivers a sharp, clear picture at a lower price, but it won't match the Asus in HDR performance or gaming capabilities.

Mark Pickavance | May 2021
"Combining features that designers and content makers need, the Asus ProArt PA32UCG-K Display represents the true cost of accurate colour. It’s expensive, heavy and has weird OSD controls, but the screen is glorious when working with HDR video or game graphics."
