Our Verdict
LG 32GS95UE-B
LG 27G850A-B
The LG 32GS95UE-B and the LG 27G850A-B are both 4k, 240Hz gaming monitors with Dual-Mode features that switches them to a 1080p resolution and 480Hz refresh rate. The main difference between them is their panel types, as the 32GS95UE-B has much better picture quality with deeper blacks and brighter highlights. The 32GS95UE-B also delivers better motion handling thanks to its near-infinite response time. However, the 27G850A-B 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 32GS95UE-B.
