Review: A Fantastic Nano IPS 165hz Monitor for Both Working and Gaming - This monitor is an excellent buy for anyone looking for a high refresh gaming monitor that's also outstanding as a work monitor. I upgraded from an AOC 24G2U (1080p IPS 144Hz) and the difference between 1080p and 1440p was surprisingly noticeable, as was 144Hz to 165Hz. At 27", the pixels per inch are incredibly high, and so the picture quality is very sharp. The slightly higher refresh also makes gameplay feel a lot smoother compared to my previous monitor, even if actual performance sits around the same frames per second - that's also a compliment to Dell's overdrive settings. Gaming on this monitor feels very smooth, and if you're lucky enough to be running a relatively high-end graphics card, then this resolutions feels like the sweet-spot for great visuals and high frame rate performance, which I found excellent in first-person shooter titles such as Call of Duty: Warzone. Colour performance is also great, and my monitor has no dead pixels and very little IPS glow, which I know is something that can bother some people. There is a little IPS glow in the lower corners, but if you don't plan to play in a dark room, you won't notice this at all. Lots of reviews out there comment on how the contrast ratio is also low on this monitor, but again, I've not noticed any significant issues. The on-screen display and menu navigation is made easy with a joy-stick like button on the back right of the monitor, and several buttons below to access other settings. There are two USB's and a 3.5 audio input on the underside left of the monitor, and more USB's on the rear - useful for any accessories or quick charging access. Personally, I think this is a great monitor that ties a professional aesthetic with high-end gaming performance, and when compared to the competition around the same price (currently this monitor is £319.99 in the UK), then it's the best option.
Review: Great picture quality, good all rounder for gaming and productivity / work use - I bought this monitor as it has an IPS type LCD panel which does not suffer from poor viewing angles and colour reproduction as I wanted it for photo / video editing besides gaming. It would also be used for productivity applications when working from home therefore image quality is important for me. It does not disappoint in any way; there is no backlight bleed whatsoever and colours are bold and contrast is good. Even the IPS glow effect is minimised and not noticeable. Bad points is there is no sRGB mode and I found the best picture quality was to set preset to game RPG mode and set hue to 46% otherwise the image has too much red in it. Also the HDR performance is pretty poor as it makes everything look washed out. But I'm not bothered about that as I don't watch movies on it and gaming performance in non HDR mode is pretty much perfect. Also this is a 165hz monitor; some negative reviews said that it isn't and it's a scam showing a photo of the model number and ratings plate. The 50/60Hz on the rear refers to the mains supply frequency not the scan rate of the monitor. Reviews of other monitors suggest that the mains frequency is often confused with the scan frequency. I can confirm it performs perfectly at scan rates of 120 and 144hz. It is definitely worth paying that bit extra for the IPS panel versus the cheaper TN based panels. The monitor is something you spend a long time looking at and skimping on a quality display wouldn't do your eyes any favours. I came from NEC and Eizo monitors which are always good quality. This does not disappoint even though it has minor flaws.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the stand supposed to fit flush on the back of the monitor or is the top slightly proud/raised? I can't fit mine flush.**
A: My stand is adjustable. The top of the monitor and the top of the stand can be adjusted so they are at the same height ( flush). Does that answer the question?

**Q: Is the square plate that fits in to the back of the monitor supposed to fit flush? The square plastic at the top of the stand at the back..**
A: Hope the video helps. I think you mean the big square in the centre of the back of the monitor, that is meant to be flush.

**Q: The delivery time for the product mentions 'January 10 - 11', is that really accurate?**
A: Quite accurate. Also, since it'll be delivered in a massive box, the delivery drivers will likely try to deliver it to you as soon as possible.

**Q: G-sync or freesync?**
A: This comes with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and compatible with NVIDIA G-SYNC.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dell S2721DGDFA
*by B***S on 5 April 2021*

I was looking to replace a 1080 monitor. So did some research and ended up deciding between this Dell and the LG gl850. I went for the Dell. What I like is. No large power brick for the Dell unlike the LG although the Dell has an energy rating of G. The Dell swivels tilts and can be placed into portrait position too. I quite like the blue rear light on the unit but have now turned it off.. My model on the back says DEC2020 so it's a recent make. The units osd is at the rear, as a little joystick and really easy to navigate the settings with. I wasn't bothered about audio I have headphones connected to my pc, so cannot confirm if they are any good. The picture quality is very good. I don't tend to play fast shooters, but I do have Sniper elite, which looks wonderful. I tend to play ETS2 and racing games which look very nice. Films look great.. There was no issues with any screen or build defects. The monitor arrived in just it's sealed box, but that is solid and the monitor was very easy to assemble onto its stand. Instructions are minimal so I went onto the Dell UK site for more in depth manual and firmware which was also easy to find. I thought the 3 year Dell guarantee was good. I was offered a further cover protection for the unit for £28 at the checkout. Various reviews say it need calibrating to achieve it's potential, although out of the box I found it ok. I'm a little colour blind anyway. I continue to tinker with the settings finding balances for my gaming experience.. The only think I unlike is the on off switch which is positioned bottom right of unit and is a very tiny, it does light up though. but that is a very minor thing (not an issue) I am happy with my purchase and believe I made the right choice for what I wanted. There are professional reviews out there for this product plus calibration ICC files so take a look. I am running i7700 and gtx1070.. The card I will update at some point in the future. I won't be updating this monitor for quite some time...
