Our Verdict
Samsung CHG70
Gigabyte AORUS AD27QD
The Samsung CHG70 and the Gigabyte AORUS AD27QD use different panels, and each is better for certain uses. The CHG70 uses a VA panel, which is better suited for dark room viewing, but the image degrades when viewed at an angle. The AD27QD, on the other hand, uses an IPS panel, and the image remains accurate when viewed at an angle. That said, it produces grayish blacks and generally doesn't look as good in a dark room.
