If you prioritize gaming, specifically with fast-paced content, the MSI MAG 271QPX with its OLED technology provides exceptional contrast and response times, ideal for a smooth experience, but its lower resolution could limit workspace for productivity tasks. Conversely, the Nubia RedMagic offers a higher resolution, which sharpens text and images for office work and media consumption, yet its lower response times might not be as suitable for competitive gaming. If HDR content is frequent in your usage, both cater well to that, but keep in mind the MSI's superior color performance for photo editing. The MSI is better for competitive gaming, while the Nubia balances gaming with productivity and media tasks. Give Feedback
