If you're focused on digital photo editing and need higher screen resolution, the KTC H27T22, with its larger screen and greater resolution, is a good match, although it's pricier. For a budget-friendly option that's still suitable for casual gaming, the Lenovo G24-20 maintains a good size and performance despite its lower resolution and smaller screen. Neither monitor is ideal for HDR gaming or media consumption, but the KTC has a slightly better color gamut coverage. If competitive gaming is a priority, both monitors have good refresh rates and response times, making either a considerable option. Choose the KTC for photo editing and overall better image clarity or the Lenovo for a cost-effective solution with satisfactory gaming and productivity performance. Give Feedback
