If you prioritize a wider screen for immersive casual gaming and a more traditional aspect ratio which benefits media consumption, the LG 34WQ75C could be the better choice, albeit with a standard performance in color accuracy and viewing angles typical of IPS panels. On the other hand, if your focus is more on productivity with split-screen capability and precise color reproduction for digital photo editing, the LG DualUp 28MQ780 offers a unique aspect ratio and higher pixels per inch, which can enhance text and image clarity. Keep in mind, neither monitor is ideal for competitive gaming due to their lower refresh rates and neither is suited for HDR gaming or media consumption. Give Feedback
