    Great specs and price. Picture quality was also good but suffers from very bad color banding. The dark scenes are specially bad and are not watchable. Good for gaming but cannot be used for watching videos.

      Glad you're enjoying the specs and price. However, we regret to learn about the bad color banding you're experience. We understand the importance of color while streaming movies/television or playing games. We'd like to offer you assistance.

      * Use the OSD (On Screen Display)- Others and reset the S2716DG to Factory Defaults (page 34)

      * Then, post pictures of your S2716DG running its "stand alone" BID (Built-in Diagnostics) which is detailed on page 40. Based on those BID pictures, I will tell if the S2716DG passes or fails our manufacturer expectation for overall uniformity.

      We encourage you - at your convenience - to call tech support at 1 (800) 999-3355 and thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Dell

    Was not impressed with the monitor. I had it for 4 days and took it back. I was using an Xbox one x so it maybe a different experience using a PC to game on. There are much better options at a cheaper price if using an Xbox one x.

    Decided to upgrade from my Dell Ultrasharp U2414H. It was an IpS panel at 8ms and 60hertz refresh. One thing I will say is that if you’re going from IPS to TN panel, expect a quality difference. Blacks aren’t as good and highly noticeable. Everything seemed washed out and kinda amber tinted. Even with the 165 hertz, I couldn’t ignore the color quality drop so I returned these. Quality was too important to drop for the expensive price you pay. Recommend looking at YouTube or other social media for reviews on what’s out there.

    Terrible color banding ruins the whole thing

    Awful, awful color banding issue. The 1440p/144hz/G-Sync does nothing to resolve how distracting the color banding is. I've never seen banding this bad, even with monitors 1/8th of the price of this. Very disappointed in this monitor and am very baffled at the good reviews considering that this appears to be a huge issue with these panels after doing some research online. Will have to return this in the morning.

    The monitor has incredible specs for the price, however the color banding is horrendous. This problem is found on every version of this monitor. If it doesn’t bother you than go ahead, but if you plan to do anything besides play competitive games do not buy this model.

      Varun,

      We're sorry to hear about the color banding issues that you're experiencing. One thing we would recommend is running the Monitor Self-Test to make sure that everything with your monitor is set up properly. You can also try to reset your monitor to factory settings to see if this helps the color banding issue that you're having.

      If you'd like to reach out to our Technical Support Team you can reach them here: http://dell.to/2sH7Qlm.

      Best,

    My middle son loves his computers. He bought this monitor for his computer and from the beginning the screen has been flickering. Not sure if it is just this monitor or if it's all the Dell 24'' LEDS.

    Garbage Setup

    Wouldn’t work with DisplayPort out of the box. Had to unplug everything and hold the power button for 30 seconds. Once I did that it worked; or so I thought. After restarting my computer I had to go through that process again. And I can’t even use a second monitor with it. Colors are washed out anyway. I was giving Dell another shot with this as they have terrible screen firmware on their computers. I should have known better. Spend your money on something else.

    Purchased this as an open box buy listed in excellent condition. Had to bring it back the next day due to the original owner having fried the screen. There we're even singe marks on the screen.
