The LG 27GR95QE offers superior HDR gaming and media consumption with its higher SDR and HDR peak brightness, making it an excellent choice for dark room viewing. It also has better color volume and image clarity, ensuring vibrant and accurate colors across various content. However, it falls short in casual gaming due to its lack of VRR support and higher chance of permanent burn-in, which could be a concern if you plan to display static elements for extended periods. On the other hand, the LG 27GR95QL is more versatile for gaming, with a wider VRR range that enhances the gaming experience by reducing screen tearing. It's also more suitable for well-lit rooms with its higher peak brightness in SDR, although its HDR peak brightness is unknown. The 27GR95QL has a faster total response time, resulting in less motion blur, which is crucial for competitive gaming. However, it has a lower color volume and slightly lower image clarity compared to the 27GR95QE. In summary, choose the LG 27GR95QE for an exceptional HDR experience in a controlled lighting environment, but be mindful of the burn-in risk. Opt for the LG 27GR95QL if you prioritize gaming versatility, especially in a brighter room, and are less concerned with the ultimate HDR performance. Give Feedback

PC Gamer

Jorge Jimenez | March 2023
"The LG 27GR95QE-B is a stellar display that makes 1440p again the PC gaming sweet spot due to its high 240Hz refresh rate and fantastic latency. However, its low overall brightness and lack of onboard settings keep it from being great."
