The Lenovo G24-20 is a solid choice for casual gaming with a good refresh rate, while also offering satisfactory performance for general productivity. Being budget-friendly, it's a good fit if cost is a major concern. However, it has limited color accuracy so it's not ideal for tasks that require precise color representation. On the other hand, the LG DualUp offers a unique screen size and resolution which can enhance productivity and offer more screen real estate, alongside superior color accuracy making it suitable for digital photo editing. Though it's more expensive, it's not the best for gaming due to a lower refresh rate and may not fully support HDR content. Give Feedback
