> 3 dayThis monitor overall is amazing. My monitor did not show up with any issues, no dead pixels and was not dead on arrival. The monitor makes all games very smooth and the picture quality is amazing. If you are considering buying the monitor I would buy it. Pros: Good picture quality 144HZ Height Adjustable and forward and back tilt Great price for the performance Comes with needed cable to run 144hz Multiple ports Cons: Only the base of the monitor stand is metal, though still sturdy May need to adjust the colors No pivot, though you cant get everything for the price Overall 10/10

> 3 dayIt only lasted a year and when I contacted Dell I sent them a picture of what was happening with it and they said it was physically damaged which wasnt true one night it was fine turned it on next night it wasnt no one else was around it I assume this is a tactic they use to keep from standing behind the product

> 3 dayWas looking for a good birthday present for a family member. I really wanted to get him a nice monitor that didn’t completely break the bank. The frames, colors, and size are all very great on this monitor to the point where I even thought about buying myself one of these bad boys. Needless to say he loved it.

> 3 dayS2421HGF So when I ordered this product, I was under the impression that it was a freesync monitor. The listing mentioned that almost everywhere. Upon receiving the monitor, I noticed on the box that it is a Gsync monitor. No where on the box does it mention anything about freesync. This really isnt an issue for me but it is a little frustrating being mislead. Now onto the good parts of the monitor... PS5 120HZ Compatible via HDMI. This is a big deal for me since my last monitor supported 240hz only via display port. So if youre looking to buy this monitor for the PS5 or even XBX (not sure about Xbox but it should run) then get it. Next up I want to talk about the menu HUD. It is really intuitive, fast, and has a joystick for easy navigating the menu. This is a huge plus for people who like to change their settings frequently. Display quality is okay. Its a gaming monitor after all. The panel is a TN panel from the looks of it so if you were expecting a IPS panel look somewhere else. This isnt a huge deal for me because I bought this monitor specifically for gaming. If you look at the monitor from an angle, it is obviously not going to look as good if you were looking at it straight on. The brightness is quite good. I am currently using it in my room with 3 lights on and it doesnt seem to affect it at all. Most monitors nowadays have good brightness. So my final verdict: This monitor is good but just so you know this is a gsync monitor as far as I can tell. It games really well. Smooth and fast response time that is PS5 ready. Has a good okay quality display with a TN panel that performs well in a bright room.

> 3 dayTo be clear, this is a review of the 24 model, not the 27. Ive only had it for a couple days, so Ill have to wait and see whether my long-term experience matches my initial impressions, but so far it has met all my expectations. Easy to assemble and hook up, with no stuck pixels or other cosmetic issues. It only comes with an HDMI cable so I had to buy a DisplayPort cable separately but thats not a big deal. Also, I was pleased to discover that it does indeed support G-Sync. The store page listings gave me the impression that the 24 and 27 models both support FreeSync but only the bigger one had G-Sync, so when I ordered the smaller one I expected to have to figure out how to make FreeSync work with my PCs Nvidia card. But the actual packaging (and a sticker on the stand base) make it clear that the 24 one absolutely does support G-Sync too, and once I had it connected it was easy to enable it from the Nvidia control panel. Im upgrading from a basic 60 hz office-style monitor, so Ive immediately noticed a big difference when gaming. My PC isnt particularly powerful, so most games cant stay above 100 fps without turning down the graphics settings, but even running at 80-90 fps, everything feel noticeably smoother. The 1 ms response time also makes a big difference there - my old monitor had an input lag of something like 8 ms. And G-Sync seems to be doing its job as far as avoiding tearing or stuttering, and even when I keep the graphics settings high and allow the framerate to fluctuate, it still feels smooth. The overall image also looks brighter, clearer and sharper, with noticeably more vibrant colors. Thats especially true when gaming but it even applies just to web browsing. As gaming monitors go, this one is pretty much the most affordable option without sacrificing quality, so its probably outclassed by most other gaming screens, but if youre upgrading from a generic 60 hz monitor its a substantial improvement. My only complaint is that, for whatever reason, the default gamma setting is way, way too high, so when I first plugged it in the whole thing looked really washed out, with colors that were actually less bright than on my old monitor. At first I thought it was a contrast problem so I tried to fiddle with the monitors own contrast and brightness settings but that didnt work. But then I went into the Nvidia control panel and turned the gamma down by about 30% and voila - instant fix.

> 3 daydarker colors, specifically black, could be much sharper, but its generally great for most cases. perfect for gaming, but if youre a visual artist (3D or 2D) although the workflow is MUCH smoother, a few extra dollars could to a more color-friendly monitor

> 3 dayThis monitor is capable of 120hz on PS5 while playing Destiny 2. The monitor will say 60hz until you play a game that makes the PS5 rise to 120fps which will automatically raise the monitor to 120hz. If youre not paying a game greater than 60fps the ps5 will keep the fps at 120. My main game is Apex Legends. The 1ms response time on Extreme doesnt cause any ghosting as far as I can see and aiming feels great. I also use this monitor for financial work on my laptop. A new spreadsheet displays column A - AC without scrolling. Settings had to be turned down a lot to rid of any fuzzyness, but the screen stores settings based on each HDMI port. The two HDMI ports is the most underrated feature. I can keep my work laptop connected w/o disconnecting my PS5. Lowering the brightness(25%) and raising the contrast(85%%) was the main adjustment I had to make for laptop use. Theres little to no motion blur on the cursor as opposed to my laptop screen. The 120 hz doesnt seem to make a difference while working in excel & pdfs.

> 3 dayI love this product. It is highly adjustable, and fits the bill for most any PC. Just make sure you are actually running 144hz, in windows settings. Other than that I have little to no complaints. Definitely one of my better choices to buy this.
