I choose this monitor because it was reviewed very well and at the $300 sale price it was a no brainer. That being said I am not at all disappointed with my purchase. Great picture and colors with a fast response time.

This is the great monitor at this price range compared to LG 27GL850B, I came from Dell 2716 dgf which is TN panel and now I feel so great and satisfied with the IPS panel of this monitor. You won't regret when you hand on it.

It's the perfect monitor for me with a 27" screen that is rotatable with the stand. I use it for work and for gaming and it satisfies all my needs. The design is phenomenal and the hole in the stand allows for easy cable management.
The only thing I would say is to make sure the device you're connecting to can deliver the full 165 Hz capability. I did not know that the adapter I used to connect my laptop limited the Hz so look into good hubs/ adapters if you want to do the same unless you can directly connect to the monitor.

Screen Issues - Will update after Replacement

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I purchased this and the LG 27'' IPS G-SYNC Monitor to compare side by side. The Dell has a much better build quality and a 3 year warranty (LG has 1 year) so I kept the Dell. Within my first week, I noticed a dead pixel on the screen and am having this persistent white-flickering border that shows up when gaming.
I did basic troubleshooting with Dell tech support and we were unable to fix it. Luckily, they have sent out new monitor. I am hoping this was simply poor QC with a defected monitor. Other than that, the picture is incredibly sharp, beautiful colors, and gaming performance is insane. The buttons for menu control on the back are a bit clunky but once you dial in your settings, you won't need to mess with it more.
I will provide an updated review once the replacement arrives. I'm hoping mine was just the bad apple as most people have only had a positive response so far.

Great monitor, deep contrast. Running 165Hz over display port. GSync works as well. 4 USB ports are a plus. Perfect for gaming. A little pricey then some but worth it.

I replaced my old samsung space saver with this as the power cable on the old one was getting hot and seems like a safety hazard. So far so good. Looks great and picture quality is superb. I game here and there and it does the job well for what i want. Mostly 1440p so the 165hz refresh is more than enough. Also the ability to turn monitor from landscape to portrait is pretty sweet. I never use it but still cool to have the option.

I bought 2 of these for my home
Office set up. I really like the thin bezel and the look of this moniter. Not to crazy looking and a tad bit of styling. Besides the looks it has a really fast refresh rate which is great while playing games. Would definitely recommend this moniter.

I came from a 144Hz TN display, and this is SO much better. I saw multiple reviews that stated the ONLY issue with this monitor, is the contrast ratio. However, I would argue that the blacks are GREAT, perhaps with the exception of professional photo/video editing. Take a look at my screenshots of Phasmophobia (good game to test out dark environments) and see for yourself.

I love this monitor so much, that I have two for myself and 1 for my wife’s gaming computer! Picture looks great, I play FPS and MMO’s at 2k and 165hz and it always looks perfect! Will only upgrade whenever Dell has a 2k 240hz monitor that looks just as great!

This is one of the best monitors I’ve ever used. I went from an extremely beafy BENQ ZOWIE monitor to this and this has a WAY smaller footprint than I expected! Because of my loce for this monitor, I’ve bought a second one for my secondary display. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I have actually used this daily for about the past 8 months and thought i literally had cancer or something because everyday i felt light headed and weird. I bought some gaming glasses that block blue light out and did tons of health related things. I ended up buying a new 4k monitor to see if maybe it would help me at all and BOOM problem solved all my issues went away. i could not believe this. Keep it in mind
Do a bit of research around the web and see for yourself that this monitor now has a historically bad reputation for causing eye strain in certain people and idk why. There is a great many posts all over the internet about this specific model causing headaches, dizziness, eye strain and general problems and i am one of those people.
Now if you are not one of the people affected by this monitor doing whatever its doing to certain others then its an amazing value at the price point and has great features.

When the monitor decides to stay on it looks stunning, resolution is great and HDR is alright (sometimes). But the reason this review is so low, is because G-sync does not work. It will cause the display to flicker out, and it will just stay off unless you change the HDMI back. Really stupid and it makes me switch to my other 1080p monitor for gaming. This doesn't seemingly stand the test of 3 days. And also this monitor gets really hot, my old LG monitor was always cold and I never had an issue with. It was only $200, this was basically $500. I would look elsewhere if you want a monitor. The image is a case where the display turned off despite being in mists of a game and it just not coming back on. It's a real shame.

Hello Jason,
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback. We are glad you like the resolution and looks of your Dell 27” gaming monitor but we are sorry to hear that you are having issues with G-sync and flickering display.
Your monitor has a built-in diagnostic tool that helps you determine if any screen abnormality you experience is an inherent problem with your monitor, or with your computer and video card.
To run the built-in diagnostics:
1. Ensure that the screen is clean (no dust particles on the surface of the screen). 2. Press and hold Button 4 for about 4 seconds until a pop-menu appears. 3. Use Button 1 or Button 2 to select the diagnostic tool and use Button 3 to confirm. A gray test pattern appears at the beginning of the diagnostic program. 4. Carefully inspect the screen for abnormalities. 5. Press Button 1 again to change the test patterns. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to inspect the display in red, green, blue, black, white, and text screens. 7. Press Button 1 to end the diagnostic program.
If you do not detect any screen abnormalities upon using the built-in diagnostic tool, the monitor is functioning properly. Check the video card and computer.
The full article on built-in diagnostics can be found below:
If the issues with your monitor are still not resolved after applying the troubleshooting tips above, we recommend contacting the Dell Support Team at the information provided below for further guidance.
Best, Katarina@Dell

Wow! This thing is first of all insanely gorgeous and built VERY well. Like I said in the title this is no MSI cheaper up gaming monitor, the LEDs actually GLOW and the screen has such good color saturation. The only reason it doesn’t have 5 stars is because…it’s not the best of the best…but it is DEFINITELY good.
