If your focus is on productivity with consistent color quality across various applications, including digital photo editing, the Dell would serve you well while saving you money. However, if you are interested in an immersive experience with better contrast, brightness, and more vibrant colors for HDR gaming and media consumption, and are also engaging in tasks that require precise color accuracy like print photo editing, the Innocn is a superior choice, though it comes at a higher cost. Keep in mind, for casual gaming, both will suffice, but for more competitive gaming, the Innocn offers a sharper experience due to its higher refresh capabilities. Give Feedback

How the Dell S2722QC (IPS) and the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"The Dell S2722QC offers 4K, USB-C, HDR, and integrated speakers for a uniquely affordable price, but makes some image quality sacrifices to hit its low cost. It’s a good everyday productivity monitor that you should buy for its features, not its performance."
"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."
