Choosing between the Dell U2723QE and Lenovo G24-20 depends on what you value most. The Dell offers a higher resolution which is better for productivity and photo editing, creating sharper images and with its larger screen, it's well-suited for multitasking. However, for those who prioritize gaming, the Lenovo with its higher refresh rate will provide smoother gameplay, which is especially beneficial for competitive games. If budget is a concern, the Lenovo is the less expensive option, but it also has a lower resolution which might not be as good for tasks that involve fine details. The decision boils down to whether you prioritize work and image quality (Dell) or gaming performance and cost savings (Lenovo). Give Feedback
