If the absolute best in class color, contrast, and media consumption experience is your priority and you're willing to invest more, the Gigabyte CO49DQ with its larger, ultrawide screen and QD-OLED technology stands out, especially for immersive gaming and watching movies. However, if you're looking for great performance at a more accessible price, value high resolution for productivity, and do photo editing that requires precise color accuracy, the Innocn 27M2V offers very good capabilities in a standard widescreen format, making it a more versatile option for a mix of gaming, work, and content creation.

Display Ninja
Rob Shafer | January 2024
"Thanks to the wide color gamut, games and videos will look even more vibrant than the standard wide gamut displays (such as LG’s Nano IPS with 98% DCI-P3 and ~90% Adobe RGB, for instance), especially when it comes to blue, cyan and green shades. All in all, if you want a 27″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with a mini LED FALD backlight, the Innocn 27M2V is currently the best model available."
