Which should you buy, AOC 27G4X or Lepow C2?

The AOC 27G4X suits extreme budget-conscious gamers and first-time QHD high-refresh upgraders, though it is the wrong buy for buyers wanting real HDR contrast and anyone wanting a fully adjustable stand. Buy the Lepow C2 for buyers who want a stand built into the monitor itself and anyone burned by flimsy folio-case stands before, though it is not built for buyers wanting a built-in battery and colour-critical creative professionals. Our rating of the AOC 27G4X (7.6/10): an aggressively priced high-refresh QHD monitor that delivers solid core gaming performance without extra frills. Our rating of the Lepow C2 (7/10): A reliable budget portable monitor whose built-in kickstand is a genuinely useful, simple design win.
