Review on πŸ’» Dell S3221QS Ultra Thin 4K Display with DisplayPort Certification, Flicker-Free Technology, Tilt Adjustment, Anti-Glare Screen, and High Dynamic Range by Francis Skinner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It is not compatible with HDR10

Pros: - VESA compatible. I was able to connect it to my multi-screen stand. - Decent speaker. I'm surprised it has reasonably good low frequency response. - Dual HDMI input. - Picture in Picture and Picture by Picture (PbP). Cons: - This is not an HDR10 monitor. The black/darkness is terrible - the contrast is weaker than I expected. Even though I set the contrast to 100%, my laptop screen (4k) has better contrast than the monitor (which was connected to the laptop as a second screen). 3000:1 contrast ratio and 300 cd/m2 brightness. It is based on an older screen technology (the specifications in the user manual say it is an active matrix TFT liquid crystal screen). I think Dell is misleading when it is advertised as LED (as shown on Revain). Yes, it uses LED lighting around the edges, but it's not a true LED screen. Update: I'm increasing the asterisk because the brightness issue is actually related to my computer, not the monitor.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • modernity
