If you're a competitive gamer looking for a smooth experience without spending a lot, the Innocn 27G1S (VA) with its high refresh rate and good response time is a solid choice, but it's not suitable for HDR gaming or media. On the other hand, if you're a professional in digital media or a dedicated HDR content enthusiast willing to invest in top-notch image quality, color accuracy, and contrast, the LG 32EP950 (OLED) would be a superior option for productivity and media consumption, though its lower refresh rate and response time make it less suited for fast-paced gaming.

Notebook Check

Allen Ngo | June 2023
"The monitor is a sweet spot for gamers who want something faster than 165 Hz while keeping the benefits of fast response times and relative affordability. The VA panel is now more competitive against many IPS options."

TFT Central

Simon Baker | May 2021
"This screen is aimed at professional users, content creation and HDR video production. The OLED panel offers really great picture quality with bright, vivid colours, true deep blacks and infinite contrast ratio for SDR and HDR. The semi-glossy screen coating does add to the picture quality and feel of the screen as well."
