The Innocn 27M2U with MiniLED is a strong choice for HDR gaming and media consumption, offering impressive brightness and color performance, which will make for vivid images and video. It's also suited to tasks like digital photo and HDR video editing due to its color accuracy. However, its refresh rate isn't ideal for competitive gaming. On the other hand, the LG 32UN650 is a larger screen which may enhance productivity and media experiences but falls short in HDR performance and refresh rate for gaming. Both have an excellent resolution and text clarity for general use. Choose the Innocn for superior visual quality and editing work, or the LG for a larger display with less focus on gaming or HDR content. Give Feedback

Forbes
Mark Sparrow | November 2022
"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."
