    I own 2 of these and the are hands down the best gaming monitors. They are fast and crisp. Now they're certainly not the cheapest but if you can get them on sale for $899 you can't go wrong.

    Got it on sale for myself for christmas and I love it. Going from a 27" lcd to a 32" hdr oled is such a massive upgrade! If you plan to play 4k games on pc though just know it will need a pretty decent gpu

    This monitor is everything i wanted in a monitor! 32" 4K OLED goodness! I really appreciate the curve as it's very slight and sleek. The glossy finish on this display is superb to matte display competitors. Truly stunning, it will leave you speechless! Watching 4k movies on this is a beauty!

    The Alienware AW3225QF is brilliantly sharp and has an excellent color gamut. I replaced two aging Dell 19" monitors with this unit and have been extremely happy with the experience.

    Gorgeous, lush, & performant OLED gaming monitor

    ** Summary ** The 32” Alienware AW3225QF is hands down the best gaming monitor I’ve ever experienced. My previous main display was a 27” Sony 4K HDR with a 144Hz refresh rate, and this Alienware blows it away in every category – size, design, picture quality, brightness, backlighting evenness, and of course, that 240Hz refresh rate. I was able to quickly adjust to the larger 32” size, and I found it perfect for everything I do with a computer – gaming, browsing the Internet, reading articles, streaming music videos and TV shows, photo and video editing, and word doc and spreadsheet work. In other words, it’s wonderful and a fantastic product. _____ *Pros: -Cool-looking curved design with subdued LED lighting on the back. -Easy to use joystick for OSD navigation. -Excellent calibration out-of-the-box. -Ultra clear, crisp, and bright display. -240Hz refresh rate. -Both the DisplayPort and HDMI ports support 4K at 240Hz. -The eARC HDMI port supports Dolby Atmos sound. -Tool-free assembly. -3-year OLED burn-in warranty. _____ *Neutral: -No built-in speakers or audio-out jack. -Max SDR brightness of 240 nits. _____ *Cons: -None *** Design, Build Quality, & Utility *** The moment I laid my eyes on the gigantic box, which is almost as big as my 100lb Goldador’s dog bed, I knew there was a very special monitor inside. The Calibration Factory Report worksheet inside built up my hype and expectations for quality as I removed the monitor pieces one by one and began the assembly. The installation didn’t require a single tool, and the parts slid and snapped together perfectly. Everything I needed to start using it was in the box – the power cable, DisplayPort cable, HDMI cable, and even a USB-B cable. All the pieces felt solid, durable, and high quality, and the assembled product looked fantastic with its black and white design that gave it a striking and classy look. There is some LED backlighting on the backside of the panel, but it’s nothing over the top or garish, which was to my liking. In a pitch-black room, it’s enough to provide some lighting so you don’t bump into things accidentally. The height, tilt, and swivel can be adjusted, and in everyday usage, the monitor stand was very stable and wobble-free on my desk. There are plenty of ports provided (1x DisplayPort, 2x HDMI, 1x USB-C, 3x USB-A, 1x USB-B), and thanks to the hole cutout on the monitor stand, all the cables can be neatly routed and organized. What’s cool about the AW3225QF is that the DisplayPort and both HDMI ports all support the max 4K resolution with 240Hz refresh rate – some other monitors only support the full spec on the DisplayPort and not on the HDMI. The USB-C port is nice to have, but it, unfortunately, does not support video-in. You can use it, though, to charge a smartphone. Thankfully, there were no dead pixels or backlighting issues with my unit – the calibration was right-on out of the box, and everything looked perfect and peachy no matter what type of content I threw at it. The standout feature of the Alienware AW3225QF is its 240Hz, 4K OLED display, and it is truly lush, sharp, and bright, all of which should make you feel very happy and content for all the coin you had to drop on this high-tech monitor. The OLED makes the contrast and the blacks amazing, with the dark areas appearing perfectly dark, which aids in the perception of depth and realism when watching movies or playing games. With a pixel density of 137 pixels per inch, everything looks sharp and very crispy, and it will benefit not just gamers but also people who will use this monitor for other common scenarios, such as photo and video editing, document and spreadsheet creation, streaming video content, and just browsing and reading stuff online. The AW3225QF does everything well, it’s quite a looker, and it’s a prime example of a well-crafted machine with excellent build materials and quality components that back up all of the marketing claims. *** Gaming Performance *** The Alienware AW3225QF was an absolute joy to play games on. Thanks to my 9-year-old daughter, I’m perpetually behind and catching up on my gaming backlog, but all the games I found time to play – Baldur’s Gate 3, Resident Evil 4 Remake, Horizon Forbidden West, Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and Left 4 Dead 2 - all looked gorgeous and fantastic. The game characters and environments pop and stand out more, thanks to the lush OLED display as well as phenomenal color calibration from Alienware. Even when things get very hectic with hundreds of enemies coming at you (like in Left 4 Dead 2), the AW3225QF handled motion clarity very well, retaining texture detail and allowing easy identification of objects and enemies despite fast-scrolling with abrupt camera movements. Also helping with the smoothness is support for Nvidia G-Sync, VESA AdaptiveSync 240 certification, as well as AMD FreeSync. Coming from a 27” monitor, the 32” widescreen noticeably felt like an upgrade, feeling like a small television, with added immersion thanks to the curve. The 1700R curvature is subtle and not too extreme, which is just fine with me. *** Is it worth the coin? *** Absolutely. If you’ve always wanted a high refresh rate, 4K display for years but passed on it due to high prices (>$2,000), then the AW3225QF at $1,200 makes it affordable for the masses. The industrial design and color scheme look cool, the build materials and quality are excellent, and that OLED display is truly a stunner, offering deep blacks, lush colors, and a high refresh rate that can handle fast motion very well. It comes with a 3-year OLED burn-in warranty, which is very reassuring. It’s a complete Win. 5 Stars.

    I purchased this $1300 monitor from Best Buy as an open box - excellent item and even paid for expedited shipping. It arrived a day later than it would have had I used standard shipping. The box was in terrible shape (and a bit of foreshadowing, there was a decent sized dent on the bottom of the box which indicated substantial force was applied onto the monitor screen itself. More on that soon!). Next, it was missing the back plate cover, which covers all visible cables. Also, it was missing the display port cable, and the power cable also… Sorry for saying “cable” so many times. Cable. There was food or some kind of gunky debris all over the screen, and the internals were covered in an inordinate amount of dust and hair. So, I cleaned it up and used my own cables to power up the device and connect it to my PC. I figured that for a couple hundred dollars off this was sort of to be expected, but at this point I was already starting to feel like I’d gotten a pretty crummy deal. Now, onto the monitor itself - It honestly worked really well, and the display was beautiful. I have owned Dell products, and absolutely loved them. Specifically, their high-end monitors. However, after two days I noticed a tremendously obvious and discolored line running vertically from the top of the monitor to the bottom (image attached). Placing my Sherlock Holmes cap on, I put the monitor back in the box the way that it was shipped. Big surprise, the vertically-discolored line running top-to-bottom of the screen measured up perfectly to the exterior dent on the box. Anyways, I tried running tests through the monitor itself, and even unplugged the display port cable to make sure it wasn’t my PC. It wasn’t. I worked on it for a couple hours, to no avail. So, I created a return with Best Buy, no big deal. I then decided to buy one brand new, but Best Buy would not price match with Dell ($200.00 less) as they are not a verified competitor? Which, admittedly, I could have researched beforehand but the fact alone is quite absurd. And Best Buy would not let me purchase a plus membership moments after I placed the order for the new monitor. The customer service agent claimed that I could be purchasing the membership in order to take advantage of Best Buy, and that the membership would have to be bought alongside any purchases in order to be honored. The new monitor (which I had bought minutes prior…) is literally being packaged for shipment AT A BEST BUY WAREHOUSE. I do not have it in my possession. That was a bit of a head scratcher, as well. I have bought and returned at least a dozen high dollar items from Best Buy and can safely say that their quality control is atrocious. Additionally, their customer service team basically just looks at information that we the customers are fully capable of viewing ourselves. So I just went to Dell.com and bought one brand new for $200 less and with a 3-yr warranty. Think I might be done buying from Best Buy :(
