Dell - S2721DGF 27" Gaming IPS QHD FreeSync and G-SYNC compatible monitor with HDR (DisplayPort, HDMI) - Accent Grey

By far one of the best monitors for the money. I was able to get it on sale for around $275, but even at it’s regular price, it’s still a great monitor. The brightness is one of the things that stood out. I don’t use it in a very lit room but I did try it at it’s max brightness and had to turn it down immediately. As for the color, I was able to download a monitor profile for windows for this specific monitor to be calibrated correctly. Though it was accurate, I prefer my display to be more vivid. The main reason I got this was for gaming. I using a 34in 144hz ultrawide (also 1440p) but learned that it was a little too distracting for my taste. This replaced that and it works way better for the games I play. There are tons of customizable things in the menu and it is fairly easy to navigate.

I purchased this monitor about 1.5 years ago when i was in dire need and I cannot be happier with this purchase. The monitor i was using (Spectre brand) died when i needed to design a website for my web design class. The Dell s2721dgf seemed like an excellent choice because i trust the brand and the specs are what i look for in a monitor, crisp and clean visuals with the highest resolution possible. To top it all off this Dell monitor has a refresh rate of 165Hz so took the plunge and spent my money on this monitor online for same day pickup in store. The Bestbuy is near my home so the experience was quick and easy. I unboxed the monitor immediately as i arrived at my apartment. And i was immediately impressed on the build quality of the monitor. The whole of it feels as premium as it looked online. the display barely has any bezel and the bit it does have, disappears behind the beautiful display. I was able to finish my assignment and later pass the class. i still use the monitor to design, play video games, watch 4k video, etc. And i recently fixed the hdmi port for my old monitor and now have a dual monitor set-up.

Not only is this a dantasric product but the customer service was very curitous, respectful and patient as they lookes to resolve an inventory issue concering this display model item I purchased. The Dell S2721DGF is a beautiful 1440p 165hz monitor with all freesync technology compatibility and looks great on both display port and hdmi. Highly suggested. 8.5/10.

After getting an Xbox Series X, I decided to upgrade from the little 1080p tv I was using and ended up here. I have absolutely no complaints about this monitor. The stand/base is very solid and doesn't feel like moving it will break. The colors look great and frames are more than enough for the Series X. The blue hue on the back is a nice touch for gaming with the lights off, so as to not be completely in the dark. I also like the little hole on the neck for cable management. Setting it up was easy. I recommended it to my friend and he grabbed one as well. 10/10. (Side note: Before buying a monitor, you should know that IPS panels in general don't handle darker areas as well as VA panels. That's not something specific to this monitor, but to all IPS in general. Fast paced Multiplayer games you want an IPS, Single player slower games then try for a VA.)

Been abusing these for sim racing more than a few years now. Several 24hr races and lot's of screen time. Zero dead pix/zero issues. My only gripe is screen color was not calibrated from the factory between screens (I am running triple screens). Not a big deal...but took a bit to get it right. 4.5 stars.

Anytime a new revision comes out for Dell's DGF line I try to pick it up. This is the 2021 model and it packs all the features you could hope for. I use this monitor to play both console games and pc games. It hits the sweet spot when it comes to size and refresh rate. For me, 27in 144hz is the gold standard. And since this monitor also supports G-Sync and FreeSync plus over clocking for 165hz refresh speeds you cannot go wrong. The picture quality is amazing, and it has great contrast and brightness no matter what your gaming environment looks like.

This has been the best monitor since I got it, better than any other brand around its price point. The price can't be for its performance in gaming for both consoles and PCs.

This is my 1st monitor that's greater than 1080p and 60hz. That improvement alone is worth it. Color is great, once you get it adjusted right. Took some time to adjust colors and no complaints now. Went with this monitor after doing research and found it to have the best reviews for the price range. After reading reviews i knew it was going to need color adjustment. (Right monitor in pic)
