If you prioritize high resolution and sharp text for productivity or detailed media consumption, the Innocn 27M2U with its 4K resolution might suit you well, especially if you're on a budget. However, if you're looking for an immersive gaming experience with superior contrast and wide viewing angles, the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 with its larger, curved screen and higher refresh rate would be excellent, albeit at a higher cost. The Odyssey also offers a vast color gamut for tasks that require color accuracy. Keep in mind that the Innocn's traditional aspect ratio is more versatile for general use, while the Samsung's ultra-wide format is specialized, particularly leaning towards gaming and expansive multimedia setups.

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."
