Our Verdict
ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG
ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG32UCWMG
The ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG32UCWMG and the ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG are both OLED gaming monitors, with a few differences. The XG32UCWMG has a higher 4k resolution for sharper images, and it has a feature that increases its refresh rate to 480Hz with a lower 1080p resolution. The XG32UCWMG is also better for console gaming as it supports HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, which the XG27AQDMG doesn't. While both of their coatings are considered glossy, the TrueBlack glossy coating of the XG32UCWMG has an even clearer image. They handle reflections similarly, too, but the XG27AQDMG gets brighter in SDR, making it the better choice for well-lit rooms.
