Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall Experience This monitor is built for people who want better-than-basic performance without paying gaming monitor prices. The combination of IPS color accuracy, 144Hz refresh rate, and 1ms MPRT gives it a noticeably smoother feel than typical 60–75Hz office displays. Text is crisp, motion is fluid, and colors stay consistent across wide viewing angles. Display Quality • 27" IPS panel provides wide 178° viewing angles and more accurate color than VA or TN panels in this price range. • FHD (1920×1080) on a 27" screen is serviceable for productivity and entertainment, though pixel density is modest. For spreadsheets or design work, you’ll see more visible pixel structure than on a 1440p panel. • Brightness and contrast are typical for budget IPS—good for office lighting, not ideal for HDR or cinematic color depth. • Anti glare coating helps reduce reflections, making it comfortable in bright rooms. Motion & Gaming Performance This is where the SE2726HS punches above its weight: • 144Hz refresh rate makes scrolling, gaming, and general UI movement feel dramatically smoother. • 1ms MPRT reduces motion blur during fast action. • AMD FreeSync minimizes screen tearing when paired with compatible GPUs. • Input lag is low enough for casual to mid level gaming. If you’re not a competitive esports player, this monitor delivers more than enough speed. Eye Comfort Dell includes TÜV Rheinland 3 Star eye comfort certification, meaning: • Reduced blue light • Flicker free backlighting • Better long session comfort For long workdays, this is a meaningful advantage over cheaper panels. Connectivity & Build • HDMI + DisplayPort (varies by retailer listing) • Tilt only stand — stable but not height adjustable • Thin bezels make it suitable for dual monitor setups • Dell’s build quality is reliably solid in this class Ideal For • Home office users wanting smoother motion and better color than bargain monitors • Students and general consumers • Casual gamers who want 144Hz without overspending • Multi monitor productivity setups Not Ideal For • Professional color critical work • Users who prefer 1440p or 4K sharpness • Those needing height/rotation adjustments without a VESA arm Final Verdict The Dell SE2726HS is one of the best-value 27" 144Hz IPS monitors available today. It’s not a high resolution panel, but for everyday productivity, smooth motion, and casual gaming, it delivers a polished, comfortable experience at a very accessible price. If you want a monitor that feels significantly smoother than standard office displays without spending gaming monitor money, this is an excellent pick.

Solid business/work monitor at a reasonable price. In the box is the monitor, power cable, HDMI cable, stand, screws, and even a screwdriver. It took about 5 minutes to get setup and working with my computer. The monitor itself is very light and the stand is heavy enough to stay in place while making adjustments. The screen on this monitor is very clear and is large enough to have a few different windows open without any issues. I will say this is not a 4k UHD crystal clear perfect color monitor and as such I would not want to use it for gaming or photoshop. It is however a very clear easy to read business monitor that is not hard on my eyes. I spend hours working in excel, word, outlook, and internet apps that are mostly for reading. This screen has yet to cause me any eye strain or headaches like some of the other monitors I have used. So overall this is a perfect monitor for my work needs! I did have a downside and I'm not sure if its my work computer as it is older, but anytime I tried to adjust the refresh rate the monitor started to artifact. I tried anything from 120hz down to 60hz and it was really bad. I was able to set my windows machine to 50hz and that solved the issues, but still leaves me wondering why it had such an issue at a higher refresh rate. Even at the lower end the monitor still works great for my needs. The other reason I love this monitor is the stand. Most monitors come with a basic stand that has little to no adjustments. This Dell monitor comes with a stand that allows the monitor to adjust for height, side to side, and tilt. Even the bottom of the monitor stand is a disk that allows for the whole thing to be spun left and right. I was thoroughly impressed with the stand as I'm able to adjust it to my needs without having to buy an additional mount. I would not hesistate to buy a second one if needed as the price is solid and the monitor and mount are perfect. 27inch seems to be the sweet spot of large enough to use for work, but not so large it takes up a lot of desk space or that I'm sitting two close that I'm constantly moving my eyes around to see everything. It's not so small that I have to do a lot of scrolling on screens to see information like on my 22inch screen or laptop screen.

Very crisp display. Great size! Not too heavy either.

This 27 inch monitor from Dell is one of the best displays I have ever gotten from the company. It has an outstanding image with excellent color production and a completely flicker free image. During game play or watching movies there is no blur thanks to the rather high refresh rate. The narrow bezels add to the enjoyment of whatever you are viewing and particularly makes movie watching more enjoyable as there is no distraction to what you are watching. The built in stand is easy to adjust to optimize the display to your viewing pleasure, It provides just the right amount of "heft" to hold the display in place on you desk or table when you are adjusting the viewing angle to suit you. It has both HDMI and display port to connect to your computer which provides options for how you want to use the display eiither depending on preference or equipment. Personally I Penerslly prefer HDMI but to each their own. I do like having the option for either as it's always best to have somerthing and not need it than to need something and not hate it. Overall I feel this is an excellent display from Dell.

The Dell SE2726HS is an excellent monitor for business or even light gaming use. I have advocated for years that 60hz monitors are terrible to look at for long periods, so it's nice to see companies like Dell bringing high refresh rates to monitors that aren't blatantly marketed toward gamers. As an IPS display, this has a great response time in addition to the high refresh rate, so there's very little motion blur or ghosting in dark areas. For such an inexpensive display, the height adjustable stand is surprisingly sturdy, and has a rotating base. I also really appreciate that it's got the power supply built in, so you just have to plug in a regular PC power cord instead of having a separate brick to hide away under your desk. I was able to get it up and running in no time thanks to the easy assembly and included screwdriver tool. On an HDMI 2.0 port, I think the highest refresh rate you can set is 120hz, and on HDMI 2.1 you can do the full 144hz - or at least, I was able to get 144hz on a brand new laptop but it topped out at 120hz on the first, lower end computer I connected to. It does default to 60hz when you connect it, so be aware that you probably have to go adjust the refresh rate in your Display settings after hooking it up. At either 120 or 144 hz, mouse input feels buttery smooth. Since it also supports FreeSync, it worked natively with my AMD laptop's graphics to have VRR right away, giving that little bit of extra smoothness in games that you'd expect. Overall, this is a great monitor with understated style that works well if you're just looking to reduce eye strain while working or if you plan to use it for gaming.

The **Dell SE2726HS 27" IPS LCD FHD 144Hz FreeSync Monitor** is a great all-around monitor that I have used heavily both for work and casual game play. I find the monitor to be the right size for my work space as 27 inches isn't too big or small. The thin bezels are nice as they minimise distractions created by the monitor's frame while focusing on what's happening on the monitor itself. The 144 Hz refresh rate is a great improvement from monitors with only 60 Hz. Scrolling through documents and Web pages appears smoother; motions in games or on videos look smoother (no tearing). I do not play competitively but I can tell there is a noticeable difference in performance. Colour accuracy and viewing angles are excellent thanks to the IPS technology. I can easily move around or look at the screen from different angles without a large drop in the colours on the display (great for sharing the screen with other people). The brightness of the display is great for a typical indoor environment and the anti-glare surface helps to reduce glare. The eye comfort features of this monitor are another positive attribute. After using the monitor for long periods of time, it seems that the reduced blue light and the flicker-free display do help to reduce eye fatigue. In conclusion, I have found this to be an excellent and basic monitor for everyday use, media consumption, and light gaming. There are no bells and whistles that you would find on higher end products; just a dependable and consistent monitor.
