For a sharper image and higher resolution for detailed work or high-definition gaming, the Asus VG28UQL1A with its 4K resolution is a solid choice. The smaller size and higher pixels per inch will lead to clearer text and images. However, if you prefer an immersive experience with a wider field of view for multitasking or enjoy the cinematic aspect ratio for movies, the LG 34WQ75C, with its ultrawide screen, could be more appealing. As for gaming, Asus offers a higher refresh rate and lower total response time, making it better suited for fast-paced games, whereas LG's lower refresh rate and longer response time may not be ideal for competitive gaming. Neither is well-suited for HDR gaming or media, but both are capable of decent color reproduction for general use or casual photo editing. If you require USB power delivery or more USB ports for connectivity, the LG provides these extras. Consider your primary activities: sharpness and gaming performance favor the Asus, while immersive experiences and connectivity options lean towards the LG. Give Feedback

Matthew Smith | March 2022
"The Asus TUF Gaming VG28UQL1A is, in many ways, a great 4K gaming monitor. It has a sharp, accurate image with good contrast and excellent motion clarity. Luminance uniformity is its only weakness. The monitor’s $799 MSRP is relatively affordable for a 4K HDMI 2.1 monitor, as well."
