If you prioritize a premium gaming experience with deep blacks and high contrast, particularly in a widescreen format, the Dell Alienware with its QD-OLED panel is an excellent option for immersive gaming and vibrant media consumption. However, if you need a monitor for tasks that require accurate colors such as digital photo and HDR video editing, the Nubia RedMagic's IPS MiniLED offers very good color accuracy across different color spaces, making it suitable for both professional creative work and a great 4K gaming experience. The Nubia is also less expensive, providing a balanced mix of features for various uses at a more affordable price point. Give Feedback

PC Gamer
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."
