If you prioritize a premium gaming experience with exceptional contrast and responsiveness, the Dell Alienware AW3423DW (QD-OLED) is a high-quality choice. It stands out in dark room performance and ultra-wide immersive gaming due to its OLED panel. However, it's less suited for productivity tasks with its curved screen and ultra-wide format. On the other hand, the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) offers a higher screen resolution which is great for productivity and sharp image detail, making it versatile for both media consumption and gaming at a lower cost, but it will not match the contrast performance of the Dell's OLED. If budget is a concern and you need a more general-purpose monitor, the Innocn might be the better option. Give Feedback

"Whlie not perfect, the Innocn 32M2V is an excellent HDR gaming monitor if you want a 32″ 4K high refresh rate display – just make sure you’re familiar with all its flaws. If you’ve been waiting for a 32″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with proper HDR support, the Innocn 32M2V is the first model available at a reasonable price."
