Our Verdict
LG 32GS95UE-B
Dell Alienware AW2725QF
The LG 32GS95UE-B and the Dell Alienware AW2725QF are both 4k gaming monitors with dual-mode features that switch them to a 1080p resolution and higher refresh rates. However, the LG has a higher refresh rate with 1080p and 4k signals. Another main difference between them is their panel types, as the LG has much better picture quality with deeper blacks and brighter highlights. The LG also delivers better motion handling thanks to its near-infinite response time. However, the Dell is the more versatile choice if you want something for work, as it has sharper text clarity, gets brighter, and doesn't risk burn-in with constant exposure to static elements like the OLED panel of the LG.
