Dell 144Hz Gaming Monitor FHD 24 Inch Monitor - 1ms Response Time, LED Edgelight System, AMD FreeSync Premium, VESA, Gray - S2421HGF

I recently built a new gaming PC and wanted a 144hz monitor to replace my (now secondary) 60hz BenQ. After looking at the competition, I found this to be the best option on price alone. One caveat is that I thought this was an IPS monitor when I bought it. It is not, but you wont even notice! Theres a startling lack of glare, and it looks well at most viewing angles. The biggest difference between this and my BenQ, is that after calibration the colors are beautifully rich. I suspect that is also why the monitor tends to be a little darker, as the gamma and brightness lacks.

This monitor is an average gaming monitor but a good bang for your buck. If you turn the response time to “extreme” you will get a ghosting effect. (If you don’t know much about monitors, look up monitor ghosting on YouTube) I had to lower the setting down for my colors to get better in higher FPS games. If I had to redo my purchase, I might’ve saved up my money to get a better quality monitor

Got this for my setup as I was running dual 22 inch 1080p 60hz and upgraded my GPU and needed a monitor that would work great for the card. (a RTX 3060TI) Have had zero issues. Comes with a nice stand to mount it too as well. I did not use the stand as the monitor is vesa mountable which I prefer in a monitor. To me the price is a bit much when its not on sale. I did get this on black Friday on sale and i wish i had gotten another for my other gaming computer.

I expected reasonably good picture quality but it turned out mediocre at best. I used to develop LCD display several years ago so I am versed in what to look for. From what I see, I guess LCD panel doesnt do a good job to prevent so called light leakage to improve contrast. Viewing angle is clearly narrow. If you move your head around a bit, you will experience brightness reduction as well as contrast. More than that, when you see four corner of display, you will see somewhat gray background, picture quality degradation. Color gamut is clearly worse. Spec says 72%. No wonder skin tone is terrible. Lower than $200, it is ok buy but I wouldnt recommend to anyone expecting a gaming monitor.

ill give it a 4 out of 5 because it was not 144hz it only went up to 120 but the assembly was easy would not recommend it if you want a 144hz monitor

Great monitor and everything but the speakers just don’t work. I honestly don’t care to much because I was planing on buying desktop speakers anyways but I like stuff to work when I buy it...

Everything about this monitor is great, except that it was not ever G-sync compatible and instead only Free Sync. The quality is good and the framerate from 60hz to 144hz is significant. The brightness and color needed adjusting.

This was a good purchase for a nice 144 hz monitor. The color needed some adjusting but it wasnt anything that couldnt be fixed with NVidia control panel.

Was looking for a good birthday present for a family member. I really wanted to get him a nice monitor that didn’t completely break the bank. The frames, colors, and size are all very great on this monitor to the point where I even thought about buying myself one of these bad boys. Needless to say he loved it.

Picture is absolute garbage. They sent no book or instructions for updates in the box. Size is good but for gaming it’s absolutely a lie or WalMart Quality knock offs. I tried to return and they sent a label…. Nope never came. No they say it’s past return date. 222 bucks don’t buy it you will regret. Done with Dell. Customer service was worst. I feel bad for my kid because he wanted this for his birthday. I guess my fault for not researching enough.
