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

I am not an expert on monitors and stuff bc I’m pretty new to it all but I really love this monitor the picture quality is great and I haven’t had any problems with it for the past month I’ve had it. My games look great on the screen and it is super bright! I love it and overall think it’s a great monitor especially for the price!!! :)

I bought a BenQ XL2411P for Christmas here on Amazon, it arrived in two days, needless to say I couldnt wait until Dec 25th so I opened it and tried it out. I honestly dont understand the hype. The Ghosting was so bad (that is an understatement) I tried to find a solution online and all I can read on the forums were to turn on blurr correction, configure it etc. I spent an entire day trying to fix the ghosting issue. I gave up and sent it back. After looking for monitors an entire day I had two more on the list this DELL S2421HGF and a ViewSonic Gaming monitor that was twice the price. Well being that this one was $199 I went ahead and clicked on buy. The monitor arrived 2 days later. The colors are not as great as a VA or an IPS, but I am so impressed at the almost no visible Ghosting this monitor is capable of. I am never going with another cheap brand ever again. Dont buy into the hype. Honestly Im starting to wonder if those reviews are real since I cant comprehend how someone could settle for such bad ghosting. Purchase the true and tried brands that have succeeded here in the U.S (Dell, ViewSonic, Samsung, LG etc.) You will not be disappointed with this monitor if youre on a budget. This Dell S2421HGF beats my old Viotek 1440p 144hz VA display, it destroys the overhyped BenQ XL2411P that has so bad Ghosting that it feels like every game is on Nitrous from Need for Speed. If you want smooth gameplay this is it.

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.

This monitor is capable of 120hz on PS5 while playing Destiny 2. The monitor will say 60hz until you play a game that makes the PS5 rise to 120fps which will automatically raise the monitor to 120hz. If youre not paying a game greater than 60fps the ps5 will keep the fps at 120. My main game is Apex Legends. The 1ms response time on Extreme doesnt cause any ghosting as far as I can see and aiming feels great. I also use this monitor for financial work on my laptop. A new spreadsheet displays column A - AC without scrolling. Settings had to be turned down a lot to rid of any fuzzyness, but the screen stores settings based on each HDMI port. The two HDMI ports is the most underrated feature. I can keep my work laptop connected w/o disconnecting my PS5. Lowering the brightness(25%) and raising the contrast(85%%) was the main adjustment I had to make for laptop use. Theres little to no motion blur on the cursor as opposed to my laptop screen. The 120 hz doesnt seem to make a difference while working in excel & pdfs.

Honestly there’s nothing about this monitor that I don’t like. The price is appropriate, the quality is nice, 2 day shipping with prime, and it’s great for budget purchases! If there’s anything to complain about it’ll probably be that there’s no sound from the monitor but there’s a headphone input along the back so if you’re looking for a decent monitor for under $200 please look no further than this!

This monitor performs exactly as I intended it to. If you need a sharp image, good refresh rate, g-synch, with a brand you can trust, this is it. I had no problems unpacking it, setting up the stand that came with the monitor, or using the controls on this monitor. Everything about it was simple and easy to use. For me, a feature I ended up really liking but didnt anticipate was the automatic screen switch. It recognizes if my laptop or xbox is on and automatically switches. It is smart enough though, to not switch back and forth when both are on. This monitor is good value, performs as expected, and was easy to set up. 5/5

I have 2 of the 24” versions of these monitors, and I’ve been using them for about 2.5 years now and they’re great. I actually just came back to the page for it to get mounting details because I’m about to mount them on the wall for the first time. 2.5 years later and they’re still my main monitors and still work great like the day I got them.

this is a great monitor if you can get it for 150 like I did, I had been using a 60 hz monitor for a while and the difference is bigger than you would think defiantly recommend

Has some good features like analyzing FPS. Meant for gaming more or less. The only thing I have a complaint about is speakers. In my audio settings it says it can play audio but doesnt actually play audio.

id say this is one of the better TN panels Ive worked on, colors are slightly washed out from the factory, but going into windows color calibration helped fix the issue. Have an IPS panel next to it so I can tell the slight color differences but if you only have one monitor, you would probably never notice. good to note that it comes with a very sturdy stand and that it is indeed VESA mountable (unlike the reviews and answers say)
