Review on Dell S2721HGF Ultra-Thin Curved Ultrawide Display: DP Certified, 1080P, G-SYNC Compatible, HDR Enabled by Garrett Walton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great monitor in this price range

I've had this monitor for about 4 months. It still works fine and I haven't had any problems with it. Pros - Pretty good picture quality for a 27-inch 1080p screen. Selflessly, if you want that sharp, crisp image, sacrifice some of that for size. So pay attention if you want to see tiny details to invest in something with higher quality. but it gets the job done and still looks pretty good. Size is something you'll have to adjust to when upgrading from a smaller monitor. Curve adds to your overall gameplay. I found it more addictive and gives me a different feel than the games I already play. - The color is good and gives you many choices. Many of the monitor's settings can be adjusted in its settings, so any problems you find are already self-correcting. - You can easily adjust its height. It can be a little tricky at times when you want to tweak a bit, but that doesn't bother me - there are no dead pixels or ghosting on the screen. I've let this monitor stay on the same image for hours and haven't seen any burned-in or random dead pixels anywhere. - very soft. Even scrolling through a random website feels smooth, making gaming feel like you've got a new computer too. Cons - many darker tones can be washed out. After some fiddling with the color settings, I still haven't found the perfect brightness combination that doesn't sacrifice darker colors. It doesn't bother me too much, but be aware that if you want a bright screen, you know you're sacrificing a lot of dark tones in return. Smaller words like typing or reading are sometimes difficult to see. I would not recommend it to anyone who wants to work long hours. It's fine if you mainly play games and maybe want to do some homework occasionally, but if you need to read small texts, just stay at work on your laptop. The monitor does not turn itself off. (This is more of a personal matter, but I wish there was a setting where the monitor could turn off automatically when there's no input. You can't really tilt it up or down. You can tilt it slightly, but you can actually only move it up and down - thought i would go without saying since it is a monitor but it has no speakers if you want to do something without headphones you have to buy your own speakers In general this monitor does more than its price.
