If you're on a budget and mainly play casual games, the Dell S2522HG with its high refresh rate and good performance in fast-paced games would be cost-effective. However, for a more immersive experience, especially in 4K resolution, and superior multitasking capabilities due to a larger screen, the Innocn 32M2V excels, making it better for HDR gaming, media consumption, and photo editing with its better color accuracy and brightness. The higher price of the Innocn also brings advanced features like a wider color gamut and higher resolution which are beneficial for productivity and creative work. Give Feedback

How the Dell S2522HG (IPS) and the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"The Dell S2522HG changes the game. This 24.5-inch 1080p gaming monitor has a 240Hz refresh rate, yet it’s commonly sold for $249.99. That’s just tens of dollars more than an average 1080p 144Hz gaming monitor. The S2522HG cuts a few corners in its pursuit of pricing, but it’s a great choice for competitive gamers on a budget."
"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."
