If you prioritize a larger, sharper screen for productivity and high-quality HDR gaming and media, the Innocn 32M2V could be the better choice despite its higher price. However, the KTC M27T20 offers higher contrast and excellent performance for competitive gaming at a lower cost, along with very good media consumption capabilities, but at a lower resolution and smaller screen size. If budget and competitive gaming are key considerations, the KTC M27T20 would be a more cost-effective option while still providing a strong gaming experience. Give Feedback

"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."

"The KTC M27T20 brings mini-LED and HDR1000 features to much more affordable price levels than before. It cuts some corners, however, and the settings require a lot of tuning for optimal colors and black levels."
