Dell S-Series 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Gaming Monitor

Built my first ever gaming desktop from the ground up and needed something that would do my 1080ti justice. The display is beautiful and the monitor was easy to assemble. Definitely has a low profile and i am currently running the computer and 5 gaming consoles through it (ps4, ps3, wii u, switch, and xbox 360), all of which look amazing. The speaker jack is definitely convenient for this as well, because it allows this monitor to act as my all in one gaming setup. Additionally, it is very good about detecting when i am switching between the different inputs to get to the right one, whether it be the computer or hdmi hub. My one complaint is that accessing and changing the settings on the monitor was a little confusing. Part of this is because all of the controls are done through buttons on the bottom of the monitor that line up a little funny with the options that pop up on the screen above them, and part are just because the menu is a bit confusing. It would definitely benefit from something like a remote.

Going in i didn’t associate dell with high build quality but was happy to find myself mistaken. Although i’m taking advantage of the vesa mount compatibility, the included stand is built well and offers great range of motion. Some reviews are critical of the small function buttons but i prefer the unobtrusive design. If you need a power button that also functions as a night light, look elsewhere. If the buttons are too dainty for your bear paws, basic osd settings (brightness, contrast, presets, etc. ) are changeable through the optional dell display manager software. The four usb peripheral ports are appreciated and the stand’s included glory hole makes for easy cable management. The headphone and audio out jacks are a nice bonus as this monitor isn’t defiled with the 2 watt tin cans other monitors laughably call ‘speakers’. For a tn panel the colors are great. I have it mounted next to a huion pen display with an ips panel and the colors, on close inspection, are only marginally better on the ips.

Edit: bought 3 of these for triple monitor gaming. They were on sale at $299 recently at both best buy and amazon. They work great for that as the bezels are small. Colors look the same at the small angle i have them on. And now nvidia cards work great on it now that it’s g-sync compatible. Now i don’t feel bad thinking i missed out by not going for g-sync model. Note: this monitor only comes with an hdmi cable. Make sure to plug it into that one and not the hdmi 1.

This monitor has performed admirably for me thus far. 1440p, 155hz, wonderful response time. Color reproduction is admirable compared to my old benq xl2411 (also a tn display) and the new driver update from nvidia makes this display g-sync compatible as well. Which it works well with, after many hours of testing.

Edit: an update, i liked my first monitor so much that i just bought another one. I can’t believe how bad my old monitor, the acer xg270hu, was compared to this one. These are the best monitors i’ve used in terms of eye strain and usability while still producing pleasing colors. The high resolution, high refresh rate, and semi-gloss coating along with tn like symptoms that are on the minimum (and i personally don’t notice after adjusting it), mixed with a great price make this impossible to beat. Semi gloss is very pleasing to look at. I am happier with this monitor than monitors costing over twice as much. It’s perfect for me, personally, and my own use cases, hopefully my review helps someone get a great experience from theirs too. That all being said, i’m seriously considering purchasing two more for my work office space. I think they’re that goodabout me: i use this product for gaming and for work. Long story short, with some tweaks (my settings are at the bottom), this monitor looks fantastic and i would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality monitor for gaming or work. When i hooked this monitor up, i was initially disappointed. Colors looked just as washed out, if not more-so, than my current tn monitor (acer xg270hu). I’d read a lot of reviews praising this monitor but was let down by the out-of-box settings. However, after spending some time tweaking the monitor, i’ve gotten the colors to ‘pop’ and am completely happy with it.
