After I decided to return my LG 27UP850 monitors due to issues mentioned in this thread, I'm torn between BENQ PD2705U and HUAWEI MateView 28, I need 2 monitors for my home office. I know it is a different category but ...
The BENQ will possibly be more color accurate and covers 99% sRGB space, no DCI-P3 coverage mentioned by BENQ, price is 600 EUR.
The Mateview is more appealing visually, has 3:2 aspect ratio and covers 98% of the DCI-P3 space, price is 500 EUR.
I'm counting with getting SpyderX for calibration as I doubt the colors will match on a pair of monitors.

Price and looks aside, would you go for the BENQ despite the lack of DCI-P3 coverage? and how important is it really? I have the LG 27UP850 where vendor claims 95% DCI-P3 coverage, colors are ok to my eyes but I don't have any new monitor to compare quality side by side. If there is any other 27" 4K with USB-C PD you would recommend in this price range, please let me know. BTW. I didn't count with the Dell U2723QE as it is overpriced in EU, 800 EUR per monitor is too much and it has mixed reviews.

Much appreciated
 
LG 32UL950 ? Generally sells for 1200 EUR, but I got mine for 850 during a sale at Amazon.
Unfortunately I cracked the screen during moving, but for the few months I had it I was pleased with it.

thanks, I'm planning to get two 27" monitors, the UL950 is just 32".
 
DELL UP2720Q, note the UP as many confuse this with U2720...
This one has an integrated hardware spectrometer for calibration.
