If you prioritize a wider screen and ultrawide gaming or multitasking experience, the LG model's ultrawide aspect ratio will serve you well, although it's not as bright in HDR content and has a lower text quality, which might not be ideal for general productivity tasks. On the other hand, the Pixio model offers excellent HDR brightness and better color accuracy for activities like photo editing, but its narrower aspect ratio isn't as immersive for multitasking or cinematic experiences. Keep in mind, if budget is a concern, the Pixio offers many top-tier features at a more accessible price point, while the LG demands a premium for its specific set of features. Give Feedback

Phil Hayton | August 2023
"The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a brilliant ultrawide gaming monitor that'll dominate your desk, and its 800R curve serves to trick the senses. It's ridiculously pricey, and 4K fans may notice the difference with this 4K panel, but its OLED capabilities and arsenal of features almost justify its price tag. Just make sure you've got decent PC specs and plenty of space for this brute before parting with any cash."
