Review on πŸ–₯️ Dell S2417DG Monitor: Enhanced 24 Inch Display with 60Hz Response Rate by Darius Soller

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic monitor at a fantastic price

I will be reviewing this monitor based on the price I paid, not the current price, so take this review with a grain of salt. Before judging this monitor, I first used a calibration I found online, which you should do as well. Link in the comments. Colors were washed out before calibration, but still better than my old monitor. With the calibration, I can't even tell it's a TN panel. Color reproduction is fantastic and viewing angles (to the sides) are on par with many IPS panels. It's worst when you look down at an angle, but that's not very noticeable either. I can see the image clearly from almost anywhere in my dorm room without much distortion. I've never seen a TN panel with such good viewing angles or color reproduction, I would easily mistake it for an IPS panel. Color reproduction and viewing angles will never match a BEST IPS panel, but they can rival most GOOD IPS panels without the disadvantages of IPS panels, namely backlight blurring, higher cost and generally lower refresh rates. I chose the 24" model because I think it's the perfect size and also because it's a lot cheaper. The stand is very smart, you don't even have to loosen the mounting screws to install it, it just snaps in place and can be installed and removed in seconds. It has all the adjustments I need while looking stylish. The monitor has all the features I was looking for and even some. It looks great looking. and it could look good almost anywhere. I appreciate the lack of a "gaming" aesthetic as it gives the monitor or any peripheral a versatility that allows it to function and look good in any role. There is one G-sync sticker but easy to remove All in all a fantastic monitor I would be willing to pay full list price but knowing it's going on sale I'd wait to see it again he goes on sale. I bought this item when it was on sale for 409.99, at that price it was a phenomenal purchase but four days later the price dropped to 359.99; $60 less than what I paid. After several calls, I managed to get a 20% discount off the price I paid to offset the discount. There is no longer price protection for purchases from Revain, except for TVs that are not, according to YMMV. With the $81.99 refund, the cost I paid was $328. For the price, this monitor can't be beat. Other monitors in this price range make compromises: either lower resolution, lower frame rate, inferior panel quality, no G-Sync or lack of amenities like USB ports, dual input ports (HDMI and DP). Do your research though, figure out what features you want/need and make a decision based on that.
