Our Verdict
ViewSonic Elite XG270
LG 27GN750-B
The ViewSonic Elite XG270 is slightly better than the LG 27GN750-B. It has better ergonomics, a better response time at 60Hz and it has a black frame insertion feature. The ViewSonic also displays a wide color gamut and it has better reflection handling. Instead, the LG has a better response time at its max refresh rate, much better black uniformity, and it has a lower input lag at 60Hz.
