If cost is a concern and you engage mostly in casual gaming and media consumption, the Gigabyte M32UC (VA) is a solid choice with a good refresh rate and fair color depth. However, the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) excels in productivity and digital photo editing due to its superior color accuracy and larger HDR peak brightness. While it's more expensive, the Innocn is also suitable for professional tasks involving print photo editing and has an edge in image clarity. If professional color work is a priority for you and you're willing to invest more, the Innocn 32M2V might be the better option. Give Feedback

"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."
