Our Verdict
ViewSonic XG2402
Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx
Although they use different panel types, the Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx is a bit better than the ViewSonic XG2402. The VG271 has an IPS panel, which has much better viewing angles. The Acer also supports HDR, and has better gray uniformity. The ViewSonic, on the other hand, has a much better stand and a faster response time, although, unlike the Acer, the XG2402 doesn't have an optional black frame insertion feature.
