If you prioritize sharp image quality and are focused on tasks like digital photo editing or want a great overall use monitor, the Innocn 27M2V with its higher resolution and strong color performance might be the better choice. However, if competitive gaming is your main concern and you're looking for the fastest response time to give you an edge, you might lean towards the LG 27GR95QL, which has a higher refresh rate and incredible contrast courtesy of its OLED panel, albeit at a lower resolution and potentially lower peak brightness for HDR content. Keep in mind that while the LG excels in gaming, its text clarity and productivity performance may not match the Innocn. Give Feedback

How the Innocn 27M2V (IPS MiniLED) and the LG 27GR95QL (W-OLED) compare to other monitors
"Thanks to the wide color gamut, games and videos will look even more vibrant than the standard wide gamut displays (such as LG’s Nano IPS with 98% DCI-P3 and ~90% Adobe RGB, for instance), especially when it comes to blue, cyan and green shades. All in all, if you want a 27″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with a mini LED FALD backlight, the Innocn 27M2V is currently the best model available."
