If you prioritize HDR video editing and require a monitor with a higher HDR peak brightness, the Innocn 27M2V is a good choice despite being more expensive. However, for a slightly lower price, the Nubia RedMagic GM001J offers comparable features for gaming and general media consumption, with a better contrast rating which is crucial for darker scene details. Both monitors have excellent color coverage for photo editing and are similarly equipped for gaming, productivity, and media consumption, but if budget is a concern, the Nubia may give you a similar performance for less money.

How the Innocn 27M2V (IPS MiniLED) and the Nubia RedMagic GM001J (IPS MiniLED) 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."
"The Redmagic GM001J is one of the best mini LED gaming monitors currently available thanks to its exceptional color gamut, fast response time and 1152-zone FALD."
