Our Verdict
LG 27GR95QE-B
Dell Alienware AW2725DF
The LG 27GR95QE-B and the Dell Alienware AW2725DF are both 27-inch OLED gaming monitors. The Dell has a QD-OLED display, while the LG has a WOLED. The Dell has better gaming performance and image quality, a higher refresh rate, and more vivid HDR colors. However, the LG is still fantastic at gaming and media consumption. Additionally, the Dell's display appears slightly purple in a brighter environment, while the LG's doesn't.
