Review on Dell S2817Q 4K HD LCD Monitor - High-Resolution Display (3840x2160p) - FBA_S2817Q by Francisco Woodall

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Dell's warranty period begins well in advance of the original Revain purchase date.

Bought this monitor on 11/1/2018. A few days ago (October 19, 2019) I noticed a periodic flickering on a black screen that lasted a second. I then visited their forums to see what other users are doing to resolve the issue; none of them worked for me. Dell's own diagnostic tests didn't do this either, as their instructions weren't applicable to the setup buttons on my particular monitor. Here's where it gets even more frustrating: After entering the service tag, Dell says my warranty expired on October 15, 2019. Note that my original Revain purchase was on November 1st, 2018. While on the phone with monitor support, I asked Dell how long their warranty was, they told me it had been a year --- FROM WHEN AMAZON PURCHASED THE MONITOR, not from when the end user made the purchase had. In other words, a royal apology.
