Our Verdict
LG 34GS95QE-B
Dell Alienware AW3425DW
The LG 34GS95QE-B and the Dell Alienware AW3425DW are both ultrawide gaming monitors with different types of OLED panels. The Dell has a QD-OLED panel that allows it to get brighter with small highlights and display more vivid colors. The Dell also has a glossy coating that results in clearer images, but more mirror-like reflections than the matte coating of the LG. The main advantage of using the LG in a bright room is the fact that its black levels don't rise much, whereas blacks look purple in bright rooms on the Dell.
