Dell S2725QS
Score: 84/100Rankings
The Gigabyte MO32U is a 31.5-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor offering a 165 Hz refresh rate, 0.03 ms response and excellent color accuracy. Its lack of DisplayPort 2.1 and no built-in speakers are trade-offs, making it ideal for high-end gamers and creators who prioritize image quality over legacy connectivity.
The Dell S2725QS is a 27-inch 4K IPS monitor offering vibrant 99% sRGB colors, 120 Hz refresh and HDMI 2.1 for smooth gaming and content creation. Its modest 1500:1 contrast and lack of a USB hub reduce HDR performance and connectivity convenience. Best suited for productivity users and casual gamers who value color accuracy and high refresh rates.
