If you prioritize high-resolution work and entertainment, the Innocn 32M2V with its 4K display and superior brightness for HDR gaming and media is a solid choice, though it's more expensive. It also offers better color accuracy for tasks like photo editing. However, for a wider field of view in games and an immersive experience in movies, the LG 34GN850B's ultra-wide screen is valuable, and it's more affordable. The LG is also better suited for fast-paced gaming due to its quicker response time. Neither monitor excels in every aspect, so consider what's most important for your use. Give Feedback

How the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) and the LG 34GN850B (IPS) compare to other monitors
"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."
"Mid-range 3440 x 1440 144Hz VA monitors are ~$500 to $600 these days. You are getting a much better product for the higher price of the LG, with faster response times and better colors (outside of the contrast ratio), but this is definitely a monitor that is reserved for those that want the best of the best and are willing to pay for it."
