If you prioritize a higher peak brightness and plan to use your monitor for HDR gaming and media consumption, the Innocn 27M2U will deliver an excellent experience at a midrange price. However, the Innocn 32M2V offers a larger screen and better suitability for productive tasks like digital photo editing. While it costs more, the 32M2V also features variable refresh rate capabilities, which can enhance gaming by reducing screen tearing. Choose the 27M2U for cost-effectiveness with great HDR, or opt for the 32M2V if you need a bigger screen and engage in tasks that benefit from a more precise color display and smoother gaming performance.

How the Innocn 27M2U (IPS MiniLED) and the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"The Innocn 27MU2 screen isn’t built to Apple standards, but it’s robust enough for desktop use and surprisingly lightweight, considering its image quality. The stand is rock steady and adjustable, plus the screen can be wall mounted. There are plenty of input options plus the ability to display two sources on screen at the same time."
"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."
