Dell - SE2426HS 24" IPS LCD FHD 144Hz FreeSync Height Adjustable Monitor (HDMI, USB) - Black

I have limited desk space so did not need or could not use the newer, 27 in. plus monitors that are available. I needed something more compact, that was adjustable. I was under the impression that what I needed wasn't made any more, so was thrilled to find this 24" ADJUSTABLE monitor made by Dell, who I feel is a very good and reliable brand. I am extremely pleased with my purchase. This monitor is very nice, very comfortable, and the picture is great.

Very good as a secondary screen. Picture quality is good

Great value for the price, especially since I go it on sale for 40 dollars off. Works great looks great, set up was easy and its very adjustable. Very convenient when you have a multipurpose desk like I do.

Love my new monitors. My office is alive with sights and sounds now!

I am extremely impressed by this monitor. For the asking price ($120 at the time of writing), you get a monitor with some fantastic specifications that aren't just for show. There's one minor quirk I think anyone purchasing this should know, but it's something that's pretty easy to work around, if it's a problem at all. To begin with, this monitor has, to my eye, some excellent colors. I don't know about the actual numbers for color accuracy that you get using software, but to my eye, this looks fantastic. Colors are bright and vibrant, and blacks get quite dark for being a standard IPS LCD. It's no OLED, of course, but it still manages to look great regardless. Using it for some art, web browsing, and basic productivity tasks, there was no point where the colors were noticeably off or wrong. The monitor gets quite bright, too. Bright enough that you definitely shouldn't have any issues in any lighting. Out of the box, it starts at 75% of its maximum brightness, and personally, I found that I like it at about 85%, but it's good all the way up and down the gamut. It will give you a warning when you try to put the brightness above 75%, telling you that it will consume more power, which is good to know. The responsiveness of this monitor is excellent. It's listed as 1ms, and it feels like 1ms, which is to say that it's imperceptible. I expected it to be much higher, since this isn't meant to be some high-end gaming monitor or anything, but no. I feel that I could game on this if I wanted to, and not notice ghosting or extra latency from my input to the monitor. The high refresh rate also rivals many high-end gaming monitors at 144hz. If your cable and your computer are capable of outputting those frames, it is smooth as butter, with no noticeable ghosting. Even doing the little UFO test, it looks fantastic. Again, this is a feature I'd expect to see on a high end gaming monitor, not something you can pick up for $120. There's a couple of caveats, though they're minor. The first is that it's only 1080p. Of course, that's listed everywhere, both on the box and on the website, but it is worth noting that if you wanted to use this for video editing, artwork, or gaming, you'll have some limitations due to the resolution. It looks great for 1080p, but it can never be as crisp as a 1440p or 4K monitor. The second thing is that there are 2 inputs, and both are HDMI. Most computers, consoles, and whatever other input you can think of have HDMI on them somewhere, so it shouldn't be an issue for most, but I do think it's noteworthy, as it's pretty unusual. I don't think I've ever seen a monitor before this one that didn't have more than one kind of connector, except for an ancient VGA monitor I had back in the 00s. Whatever the case may be, I have nothing negative to say about this monitor whatsoever. It looks great, it has a high refresh rate and low input latency, and I can see this being useful as a budget gaming monitor, or a very high end productivity monitor. Would absolutely recommend if you're in the market for a 1080p monitor.
