AOC 24G2 vs ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP: Comparison
What is the difference between AOC 24G2 and ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP?
On refresh rate the spread is 58%, AOC 24G2 144 Hz against ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP 60 Hz, so AOC 24G2 takes it. AOC 24G2 also leads on max refresh rate, 144 Hz on the AOC 24G2 versus 60 Hz on the ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP. Add screen size to that, 23.8 in on the AOC 24G2 versus 15.6 in on the ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP, and the pattern holds.
Who each one is for
The AOC 24G2 is the one to take for extremely budget-conscious gamers wanting a fully adjustable ergonomic stand, though it is not the pick for buyers wanting wide-gamut color coverage or HDR support and competitive players wanting higher refresh rates than 144Hz. It is equally the pick for first-time gaming monitor buyers looking for a well-reviewed, dependable budget option. The ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP suits content creators needing a tripod-mountable secondary display and ASUS loyalists who want extra flexibility over the base ZenScreen, though it is the wrong buy for gamers or anyone latency-sensitive who'll just use it wired anyway and iPhone users, since Miracast doesn't work with iOS. It also earns its place with presenters who want to cast from a phone or laptop wirelessly.

ASUS ZenScreen Go MB16AWP

A solid pick if wireless mirroring or tripod mounting actually matters to your workflow, otherwise the plain MB16AC is the better value.
