If budget is a priority and your primary activities include causal gaming and digital photo editing, the Lenovo G24-20 (IPS) is a more economical choice and offers a good experience for these tasks. On the other hand, if you're a serious gamer looking for the highest performance in competitive gaming, or you're enthusiastic about HDR gaming and media with deeper blacks and more vibrant colors, the LG 45GS95QE (W-OLED) is better suited for those needs, though it comes at a higher cost. The LG's wider, curved screen and superior color depth enhance immersion and viewing experience, which is great for productivity and media consumption, despite the higher price tag. Give Feedback
