If you're a competitive gamer valuing high refresh rates and seamless gameplay, the Corsair 45WQHD240 (W-OLED) would likely suit you, especially with its larger screen for immersive experiences and strong performance with fast-moving visuals. However, if your primary concern is digital photo editing or print photo editing with precise color accuracy, the LG 32EP950 (Inkjet OLED) with its superior color reproduction might be worth the higher cost. The LG also has a higher screen resolution, which would benefit media consumption and productivity with clearer images and more workspace. Conversely, the Corsair's larger size may pose a drawback for text clarity and image sharpness compared to the higher pixel density of the LG. Give Feedback

Simon Baker | May 2021
"This screen is aimed at professional users, content creation and HDR video production. The OLED panel offers really great picture quality with bright, vivid colours, true deep blacks and infinite contrast ratio for SDR and HDR. The semi-glossy screen coating does add to the picture quality and feel of the screen as well."
