Our Verdict

ViewSonic XG2402

Acer Nitro XF252Q Xbmiiprzx

The Acer Nitro XF252Q Xbmiiprzx and the ViewSonic XG2402 are very similar overall. The XF252Q is slightly better for gaming, as it has an optional black frame insertion feature and a higher refresh rate. The XG2402 we tested has better black uniformity, but it doesn't support HDR. Although the XF252Q supports HDR, there is little benefit to it.
