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

Bought this monitor for my husband because of the good reviews but his experience with it was very bad. Heres his review Issues: 1. All the built in presets look washed out. Seriously? This was Dells chance to impress but all settings are horrible. Did some googling and cant find a good custom setting that suits my taste. With all the great reviews saying the picture quality is great... Im left to wonder HOW?? Maybe I got a dud. 2. Pixelating display for some games. There is visible pixelation when you focus on certain objects on the screen, the pixelation goes away once you stop moving. I dont know if this is another form of ghosting, I didnt feel like I wanted to waste my time finding a solution for it. None of these issues appeared in older less expensive monitor that Ive used 3. I know its a TN panel but even the slightest vertical head movement would result in contrast change, pair that with the washed color... its really not acceptable for the price you are paying Returned. Sad, I wanted to like it and Ive been using Dell products for a long time and this one was a big disappointment. Bought an ASUS VG259Q... the difference was night and day for an extra 50$. None of the problems above, not all presets was to my liking but none of them appeared washed. Glad I returned this Dell and went with the other brand.

Love this thing. Mainly play apex and cod. Blows my more expensive acer away! Highly recommended

I got this for my PS5 and I love it. It supports 120hz on the games that support it. No this monitor does not support 4K, but that’s fine because not many games will support 120hz AND 4K on the PS5.

Its a fair monitor but the picture quality isnt that good. I dont think its 1080p, looks like 720p as far as picture quality goes.

Great Monitor, no mention of HDR but that did slip my mind while shopping for this monitor, I searched for AMD Freesync and found this monitor. 144hz is plug and play, there are a couple of game modes, you can pick between but im really not clear what it does, I set it to faster which is the middle between the three options. I was happy with the monitor after that so I didnt look further into the settings. Monitor turns on automatically when I power on the machine which is a nice feature, This monitor comes with a stand an HDMI and Power cord. I didnt use the stand that is came with, Instead I removed the m4 screws that were already installed on the monitor and Vesa mounted it on my desk. I am using the 24 inch version and when I saw how good this was I kinda wished a got a bigger size screen, lol.

This is my first time buying a PC Monitor and Im absolutely in love. The adjustable height and tilt features are outstanding. The picture quality is smooth and it runs quite well! Im super happy with this purchase and Ill be buying a second one as soon as I can.

I know many of us are still attempting to get the PS5. If and when you get your hands on one, this monitor works perfect for any gamers setup while being budget friendly! Easy setup, took about 2 minutes to put together. Works very well for my PS5 and laptop. If the game can run at 120hz, it will. Defintely recommend!

To be clear, this is a review of the 24 model, not the 27. Ive only had it for a couple days, so Ill have to wait and see whether my long-term experience matches my initial impressions, but so far it has met all my expectations. Easy to assemble and hook up, with no stuck pixels or other cosmetic issues. It only comes with an HDMI cable so I had to buy a DisplayPort cable separately but thats not a big deal. Also, I was pleased to discover that it does indeed support G-Sync. The store page listings gave me the impression that the 24 and 27 models both support FreeSync but only the bigger one had G-Sync, so when I ordered the smaller one I expected to have to figure out how to make FreeSync work with my PCs Nvidia card. But the actual packaging (and a sticker on the stand base) make it clear that the 24 one absolutely does support G-Sync too, and once I had it connected it was easy to enable it from the Nvidia control panel. Im upgrading from a basic 60 hz office-style monitor, so Ive immediately noticed a big difference when gaming. My PC isnt particularly powerful, so most games cant stay above 100 fps without turning down the graphics settings, but even running at 80-90 fps, everything feel noticeably smoother. The 1 ms response time also makes a big difference there - my old monitor had an input lag of something like 8 ms. And G-Sync seems to be doing its job as far as avoiding tearing or stuttering, and even when I keep the graphics settings high and allow the framerate to fluctuate, it still feels smooth. The overall image also looks brighter, clearer and sharper, with noticeably more vibrant colors. Thats especially true when gaming but it even applies just to web browsing. As gaming monitors go, this one is pretty much the most affordable option without sacrificing quality, so its probably outclassed by most other gaming screens, but if youre upgrading from a generic 60 hz monitor its a substantial improvement. My only complaint is that, for whatever reason, the default gamma setting is way, way too high, so when I first plugged it in the whole thing looked really washed out, with colors that were actually less bright than on my old monitor. At first I thought it was a contrast problem so I tried to fiddle with the monitors own contrast and brightness settings but that didnt work. But then I went into the Nvidia control panel and turned the gamma down by about 30% and voila - instant fix.

So at first I was a little hesitant about buying the monitor because of people saying it dosent work for ps5.I’ve been looking for a monitor that will be able to support the 120FPS.THIS IS THE ONE DONT LISTEN TO OTHER PEOPLE.Let me explain...the ps5 requires 2.1 for 4K at 120HZ. But it still supports 1.4 because the quality is at 1080p HD. So in short monitor with a 1.4 at 1080p HD at 144HZ will work with the ps5 unlesss you want to get 4K at 120hz you would have to find a 2.1 port .

I’m using this monitor for gaming and it’s been great. The menu is extremely easy to navigate, chords are easily plugged in and organized, and the design of the monitor itself is very sleek. The panel also looks amazing. My one complaint is that I found this monitor from the 27” version, which is curved. This series of monitors aren’t all the same- my 24” one is NOT curved, which was upsetting. They need to fix how they’re advertising their monitors because it was really confusing once I opened it up from its box.
