If budget isn’t a concern and you prioritize a larger screen with exceptional color accuracy for professional photo and video editing, the Asus PA32UCG-K with its MiniLED technology and high brightness is well-suited for these tasks, especially with its strong performance in HDR content. Conversely, if you’re focused on competitive gaming and want to save money, the LG 27GR95QL offers a higher refresh rate with OLED technology, providing fast response times and excellent contrast, but it falls short in maximum brightness and may not be the best for color-critical work. Both monitors display deep blacks and vibrant colors, but the Asus excels in productivity and media consumption while the LG shines in gaming performance. Give Feedback

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."
