Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Alienware AW2725D display is another great addition to the Alienware monitor line up. With a 2K QHD display running at 280 hz refresh rate it does not sacrifice performance for quality in any way. After playing multiple FPS games, and doing lot of production work including video editing, color correction, and photo editing I realized this monitor far exceeds the expectations I had for it at first. The design is sleek and built well. It doesn’t feel like the aesthetic of the screen was an after thought in any way. Talking about the Input/Output this monitor boasts multiple USB outlets for data transfer and power output. Naturally a solution to help declutter anyone’s desk setup at home. The data rates are stable and I didn’t experience any input loss when testing it. Don’t be surprised though when I tell you this monitor can draw plenty of power. This monitor draws 25 watts operating nominally but if you are pushing every feature and IO at full brightness it can draw up to 120 watts. Overall this monitor functionally works great for gaming and creative professionals alike!

This Alienware QD-OLED Monitor with 280Hz refresh rate is amazing. It comes with many features, plenty of video input ports and included video cables that makes it very appealing gaming and video editing monitor. The first and most important part to mention is the colors that display very vibrant with no glare to speak of. The refresh rate is impressive, no artifact or shadows that my eyes can tell while playing FPS games. There is no glare to speak off even on bright since I have my set up close to a window. As for the features, it comes with several presets for gaming mode which automatically adjust brightness and contrast which make for easy changes. It also has two USB ports, one USB-C and one regular(A) which I use to charge my head set and watch. These are USB 3 ports. This monitor does not have speaker so it is not a stand alone gaming monitor, but this is not a negative. The design is nothing special though it has a nice curved design in for the stand and the back of the monitor. This, however, makes it look bulky when looking from the back. There are too many settings from factory to include in this review but it makes for a well worth it monitor for great gaming experience or video editing.

I am a big fan of OLED screens, both for media content, basic computing, and games. I have a larger 4K Alienware OLED screen, which is excellent but quite cumbersome on a smaller desk. I find the image quality of this unit to be identical to the quite expensive 4K 32 inch Alienware unit. The specifications are quite similar. The screen is factory calibrated and I have seen no issues with refresh rate or tearing. The unit comes with an above average stand and a pleasant dark blue Alienware color with minimal vessels. There is a built-in USB-C hub as well as two HDMI and one display port input. The 27 inch size and the 1440 vertical resolution allow almost any game to be played at high refresh rates with my Uppermid range gaming laptop. In a 27 inch monitor, the lack of curvature is in my opinion of benefit. The screen coating is also matte Which is different than many similar monitors and is excellent in a room with glare from windows or poorly positioned lighting. The onscreen display appears quite functional and I am hoping there will be similar multi gear support and firmware upgrades as has been the case for the older 4K 32 inch unit I own.

The monitor was well packaged and arrived undamaged. It was easy to unpack and set up. It comes with an HDMI and Display Port cable, so no hunting for a cable to get working. The first notable feature is the screen brightness and color. The QD-OLED screen is great with vivid colors and very good contrast. The native resolution is one step above FHD, being 1440 instead of "just" 1080. Another noticeable item is the lack of lag. It makes using a mouse easy to place correctly. A welcome feature is the USB ports built into the monitor. It comes with a USB-A to USB-B cable to feed it from the computer, which allows connecting three USB-A and one USB-C device directly to the monitor. The height of the display is adjustable. While it is fairly energy efficient, it is not ENERGY STAR Certified. It does support the HDR color gamut. My only complaint (and very minor) is that it only supports Display Port 1.4 and not 2.1. For my use it's not critical, but might be for others. Overall a very nice display.

This is coming from a first time owner of a new Alienware product... I have never hads anything Alienware and have always wanted to get one of they're gaming PC's but omg the price sticker can give you shell shock so to speak so when I saw this I jumped on it as fast as I could to get it . So far this monitor has out performed the other 27 inch that I have and is almost 10 years old which was also a brand that I have sttuck by for years. For being a flat screen monitor I'm surprised of how well the picture clarity is but being a QD-Oled it does make a differance it's like watching a OLED TV for picture and pairing it up which the newest CPU /Graphics cards that are out now makes it one of the best I have seen for gaming on a small monitoralong with the 0.03-ms refresh and the 280 Hz there's little to no tearing in the games I personally play. The big thing for me with this monitor is the fact of the refreshspeed and also being both Freesync/G-sync for those who use Radeeon or Nvidiaputting it togetherrr is about the same as many monitors out there easy to set up. The only con is the fact it's a flat screen so it mean's that I have to get used to a flat screen again lol I have gotten to used to a curved type with that being said yes I'm picky when it comes to that but that's meand yes it works with my set up and will being an asset to the games I play. It's a 100% get for either gaming or for a work station in my opinion

This is great gaming monitor. The QD-OLED screen is capable of deer stunning brightness and absolute pitch black. This is a high quality, high value *gaming* monitor with amazing performance in games. Input lag is nonexistent with the 280Hz refresh rate. Compared to even very fast IPS displays at the same refresh rate, this monitor is clearly faster. Battlefield 6 is beautiful and crisp with HDR enabled or not. There is so much brightness available you can nearly blind yourself in HDR or SDR. This monitor is amazing in bright light, with so much contrast it stands out and is easy to see and read. In the dark I found it nearly overpowering even at 15% brightness for use outside of games. The amount of blue in the output seems to give whites a blue-ish/light green-ish hint that I did not find pleasing. I experienced much faster eye fatigue when using the QD-OLED display than I do on my slower IPS panel. The faster refresh rate should make it even smoother and easier to look at, I thought, but that has not been the case for me. The stunning blacks make gaming and graphics extremely sharp and well defined, to a level that game devs should think about tuning games graphics more toward these insane contrast levels. I did find that watching even native resolution high quality streams that this Alienware monitor really highlights how bad streams actually look. The horrible compression artifacts in dark scenes and areas are done no favors by this monitor. This is the absolute best gaming monitor I’ve ever used, but for a daily driver, it is too much for me. I would conditionally recommend it for simply the best gaming graphics I’ve ever seen.

I have been using a 4k gaming monitor since 2018 and thought I had a good screen until I plugged in the Alienware AW2725D. This monitor has changed my nightly gaming experience and it will hard to ever go back. Read on for my full thoughts. Unboxing: pretty straightforward essentially all I had to do is open the box remove protective cardboard, and Styrofoam screw the base on, and I was up. Set up was just as easy I plugged it in and I used a HDMI cord, one of which was included and plugged it into my PlayStation five. The monitor also came with a DVI cable included, and I will use that for my desktop computer. Out of this process, I was surprised to find that the HDMI cable and the DVI cable were included. This is not a normal thing. It seems like anymore, so not having to rummage through my thing or use my old issue my cable which needed to be replaced was quite convenient The screen quality: this Alienware is equipped with a 27 inch QD – OLED screen. This is a flagship high-quality screen, and as I stated it has changed my experience when it comes to gaming. The monitors are equipped with a high refresh rate 280 Hz colors are dictated by HDR, and the contrast is just superb. I typically play Call of Duty or battlefield lately. I’ve been playing battlefield and let me tell you everything is crisp clear and you’re definitely in the game. Of course I’ve adjusted my PlayStation for brightness and contrast, but I have to say this monitor really allows me to see what’s going on in the game. There’s no questions on if someone’s there in a dark scene. I have also noticed I do not get any type of motion sickness. I typically don’t, but if I played after a really long time or you know, I have a lot of eye strain you know I’ll start feeling not good but here the screen is just so clean and vibrant that it allows me to play for longer. Bonus: on the bottom edge of the monitor there is a USB a and USB-C type ports. This is the best feature I’ve ever seen on a monitor. They are actually powered. You don’t need any additional cables to power them. We can it’s powered right off its own power source, but I can charge my PlayStation headphones or controller. I already have a dock for my controller, so I’m actually typically charging my headset when I’m not playing it will continue to charge even when the monitor has went to standby mode or while gaming. I’ll actually connect it to my iPhone. My favorite thing about this monitor is the color of the physical monitor instead of being black, it is a very dark blue. It goes along with the Alienware theme and is a nice touch. It’s also not vibrantly blue so it won’t stick out in your room but when you said I’m close to it you’ll notice that it’s not exactly black. I really don’t have any negative comments about this monitor, and I really had to think hard to come up with one. The only thing that comes to mind is that there’s no internal speakers however this is quite normal for a monitor. Overall, I am highly impressed with this monitor. If you’re someone that gets motion sickness easily this is a no-brainer. You need to buy this monitor either for playing video games on your PlayStation or Xbox or on your PC. This is this is the way to go.

Hello friends and welcome to my review of the new Alienware AW2725D 27 inch QD-OLED. That is a mouth-full so from now on I will call it just the monitor. First of all Alienware really needs to redo the packaging for this monitor. When it arrived I set it down on the floor and cut the tape on the box to open it, and it just fell open in both directions. The monitor flopped around as did the the stand, nothing was damaged. So I guess the packaging did it's job? Now, on to my review. After setting up the monitor and getting it synced with my other monitor. Right away I noticed the difference in the two displays. My other display is a 27 inch Samsung 4K and actually really nice. However, sitting next to the new alienware QD-OLED it starts to look old or almost a bit darker. If I am using both monitors for a static screen where both are white back grounds. I can see clearly that the white on the new alienware unit is brighter in all light conditions. Also strangely enough it does also appear to be smoother looking too. The display is so crisp that appears to me to basically look more realistic. This all new QD-OLED is also very clean looking when analyzing colors . I know that the folks over at Alienware are big gamers too so their attention to the color pallete shines in this new monitor. The next thing that really stood out to me is the speed of this screen. It becomes clear after just a few minutes of use that this monitor is on a new level. The smooth almost effortless ability of this screen to eat everything you throw at it is amazing. Clarity and detail rule the day on this monitor. I have been watching 4K content and the detail I can see is amazing. Real content that shows things such as grass, the grass looks so real that it seems as if you can feel it thru the screen. I am very impressed with the lack of any latency what so ever. I personally think that this monitor is actually better than the video and games we play on it. This is a impressive unit I must say, and I would recommend it to anybody looking to get one of the best monitors money can buy!

I bought my first OLED TV (a 77” Samsung, one of the higher end models) a year and a half ago. I have always been a Sony guy, but I found their OLED TVs to be too expensive for my taste, so I acquiesced and got the Samsung. Needless to say, I wish it was a Sony, but the picture is so good that even my high end LED Sony TVs annoy me now because I get bothered by the lack of true blacks and nitpick about my perceived flaws (real or not). I spend most of my time gaming on an 85” Sony, but it’s only a mid grade TV and it has been okay for me. I only game at my computer sporadically (I have a Ryzen 9 with a 5070) because my monitor is a 32” curved no name brand that I bought during pandemic. Enter Alienware OLED. I was concerned that it would be too small but at my desk’s viewing distance, 27” is perfect. The size didn’t even matter once I booted it up. It’s kind of like how the first time I saw HD TV in around 2005 and that whole era through 2007 where the channels started popping up in HD and everything looked like it had another dimension to it. I’d say that the leap is bigger moving to an OLED computer desk monitor than it was moving to OLED main TV. It feels like everything I’m looking at has a new depth to it. The colors are deeper, the motion feels clearer.. everything looks awesome and it’s not just resolution. OLED in your face produces something special. I’ll never go back to LCD, to the chagrin of my wallet. Highly recommended.

This is the 1440p OLED monitor I've been waiting for! Inky blacks, pop-off-the-screen slightly over-saturated colors, and just an overall drop-dead-gorgeous image no matter what you're doing! I'm running this monitor on a RTX 4090 via display-port cable, but I did also try it via ultra-high-quality HDMI cable. I personally did not notice any difference in image quality, but then again my eyes aren't the best anymore. Because of the high refresh rate capabilities of this monitor (280hz), even at the highest frame rate I've yet to see any ghosting or motion blur in the latest AAA games, not to mention that it looks equally as awesome when being used for work, whether you're doing CAD design, video production, spreadsheets or just typing up some documents for a class that you're attending. Watching movies on this monitor is equally as enjoyable - because of the OLED panel the colors just POP off the screen. I additionally tried this monitor as a secondary on my Alienware M18 R2 with an RTX 4080 - zero issues there as well. Simply a fantastic monitor all the way around!
