Our Verdict

MSI Optix G27C4

Lepow Z1

The MSI Optix G27C4 and the Lepow Z1 are vastly different displays, each with a different target audience. The Lepow is designed with portability in mind, whereas the MSI is a desktop gaming monitor that outperforms the Lepow in almost every way. The Lepow supports HDR, but this doesn't add anything, as it can't display a gamut wider than SDR and isn't bright enough for HDR.
