ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG
LG 27GX704A-B
The LG 27GX704A-B and the ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG are competing 1440p, 240Hz gaming monitors. While they both have glossy coatings, the screen finish on the LG is less hazy, resulting in clearer images. There are some differences in picture quality, as the ASUS is brighter in SDR, but the LG is more accurate. The LG also has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth to take full advantage of gaming consoles, which the ASUS lacks.

Hi, yeah generally speaking, glossy coatings result in clearer images than matte coatings, which in turn have less direct reflections. At the end of the day, it’s a personal preference, but it’s good to know which you prefer.
Between these two, the coating on the LG is actually less hazy than the coating of the ASUS. Besides that, they’re very similar, and you can’t go wrong with either. You may also want to consider that the LG has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, which the ASUS doesn’t have.
Which one do you recommend? I’m looking for my first OLED monitor. The QD-OLED panel on other ones seem to scratch easily and the WOLED has a better resistance (?) Some people say that Glossy is clearer than Matte coating (Which I find weird) If you have to keep one that will stick with you for some years which one will it be?
My other option is the Gigabyte MO27Q28G (Matte) it is newer but I don´t want that coating and some of the features are looking less from these two…

Thank you for everything :D !!!
