If competitive gaming is your priority and budget is not an issue, the Corsair Xeneon with its superior refresh rate offers smoother gameplay, though it may not be the best for productivity due to lower text clarity. On the other hand, the Innocn 27M2U, being more affordable, delivers higher resolution ideal for productivity and media consumption, and its high color accuracy is great for tasks like photo editing. For HDR gaming and video editing, the Innocn also fares well with its good peak brightness and color gamut coverage. However, its lower refresh rate may not be optimal for fast-paced gaming experiences. Give Feedback

How the Corsair Xeneon 27QHD240 (W-OLED) and the Innocn 27M2U (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"The Innocn 27MU2 screen isn’t built to Apple standards, but it’s robust enough for desktop use and surprisingly lightweight, considering its image quality. The stand is rock steady and adjustable, plus the screen can be wall mounted. There are plenty of input options plus the ability to display two sources on screen at the same time."
