Our Verdict
Acer Nitro XV275K P3biipruzx
MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M
The MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M and the Acer Nitro XV275K P3biipruzx are both 4k Mini LED displays. One main difference is that the MSI has a dual mode to boost its 160Hz refresh rate to 320Hz with a lower 1080p resolution, which the Acer doesn't have. However, the Acer has a few advantages in picture quality because its local dimming feature is more effective at improving picture quality, and it's a lot more accurate before calibration. The Acer even has superior reflection handling, so it's better to use in a well-lit room.
