Our Verdict
Dell Alienware AW2723DF
Samsung Odyssey G70D S32DG70
The Dell Alienware AW2723DF and the Samsung Odyssey G70D S32DG70 are different types of 27-inch gaming monitors. The Dell is the better choice for playing PC games at high refresh rates because of its 280Hz refresh rate, and it's better for well-lit rooms as it gets brighter. However, the Samsung monitor is better for console gaming because it supports HDMI 2.1 bandwidth to take full advantage of gaming consoles and has a higher resolution for more detailed images. Fast-moving content also looks better on the Samsung.
