If budget is a major concern and you want a monitor that is excellent for gaming with a high contrast and large color gamut, the Pixio PX277 OLED Max is a cost-effective choice. However, it may not be the best for productivity due to its relatively lower text clarity and image clarity. Conversely, the ViewSonic VX2776 2K OLED, while more expensive, offers superior text clarity and image clarity, making it a better option for productivity and digital photo editing, but it has a lower peak brightness which may not be ideal for well-lit environments. Both have similar screen resolution and sizes, are suitable for HDR media, and have high refresh rates, making them good for a blend of gaming and media consumption. Give Feedback
