If you prioritize a wider, immersive display for gaming and general use and want to save some money, the Dell Alienware AW3423DWF with its ultrawide aspect would be suitable. However, if you're looking for higher clarity and resolution for tasks such as digital photo editing or watching high-resolution content and don't mind spending more, the Gigabyte FO32U2P might be the better option for its sharper 4K screen despite being smaller in size. Both monitors offer the quality of an OLED screen which is excellent for deep blacks and vibrant colors, but the tradeoff lies in the screen's resolution, size, and your budget. Give Feedback

Jeremy Laird | May 2023
"It may seem like a minor tweak, but the addition of a glossy anti-glare coating makes all the difference. It really lets the OLED panel rip. That this revised "F" model is also cheaper than the OG Alienware OLED and the similarly glossy Philips competition seals the deal. This is our new favourite among the OLED monitor massive."
