Dell 240Hz Gaming Monitor 24.5 Inch Full HD Monitor with IPS Technology, Antiglare Screen, Dark Metallic Grey - S2522HG

Works well but hdr settings are odd. Good picture quality if you use better cables than dell provides. Had issues with the low quality dp and hdmi cables dell provided. Buy some Zeskit cables and you’re good to go.

it is really, really fast but it has some yellow tint to it, after some eq with the on-board settings it has become a little bit better

I was able to snag one from the warehouse for $300 it was like new but had one dead pixel in the upper center and also a stuck pixel on left side when black. It does have bad flickering with the freesync/gsync when the fps drops below 75fps. So games that only run at 60fps Ive had to turn it off for those games. Even though it does not have the best HDR it looks good to me even fire looks great. The colors pop for games like Genshin. Blacks do look black even though its not OLED. So if your on a tight budget and want a ultrawide and flickering does not bother you this may be a good buy for you!

i’ve had this monitor for about 4 months now. it’s still working fine and i’ve had no issues with it. pros - pretty good image quality for it only being 1080p on a 27 inch. obliviously if you are big into having this crisp clear image you give some of that up for the size so make note if you want to be able to see tiny details to invest in something with a higher quality. but it gets the job done and still looks pretty good. - the size is something to get adjusted to if upgrading from a smaller monitor. the curve adds to your overall gameplay. i found it to be more immersive and give me a different feel to the games i already play. - the color is good and gives you many options. a lot of the monitor can be adjusted in its settings so any issues you find can already be fixed on your own. -you can easily adjust the height of this. sometimes it can be a bit hard if you want to do a small adjustment but that doesn’t bother me. -no dead pixels or any screen ghosting. i’ve had this monitor left on the same image for hours and have seen no burn in. as well as no random dead pixels anywhere. - very smooth. even just scrolling on any random website looks smooth so with games it makes it feel like you got a new pc too. cons -a lot of the darker tones can be washed out. after messing with the color settings for a while i still haven’t found the perfect mix of brightness that doesn’t sacrifice any darker colors. it doesn’t bother me that much but note that if you want a bright screen know you sacrifice a lot of the darker tones for that. -any smaller words such as typing a paper or any reading is sometimes difficult to see. i wouldn’t recommend this for someone looking to do work for long hours. this is alright if you want to do mainly gaming and occasionally maybe homework but if you need to read small text just stick to working on a laptop. -the monitor doesn’t turn off on its own. (this is more of a personal thing but i wish there was a setting where if there was no input that the monitor could automatically turn off. - can’t really angle it up or down. you can slightly put it at an angle but you can only really move it up and down. - i figured this is a given since it’s a monitor but it doesn’t include speakers. you’ll have to buy your own speakers if you want to do anything without headphones on. overall this monitor gives out more than the price point it’s put at. if you’re looking for an affordable monitor that still offers a good/smooth look and size go with this.

it is really, really fast but it has some yellow tint to it, after some eq with the on-board settings it has become a little bit better

I bought this too replace a cheap AOC monitor and it did not disappoint. It did have one dead pixel but I havent found a 1440p monitor that didnt have at least one dead pixel. The bezel is sturdy and well made I only wish it was possible to adjust the height

Im a software engineer and purchased this for development. My work laptop will do, at most, 3440x1440 120hz. It works great and looks pretty :) For writing code, this monitor works quite well. Id definitely recommend it for purchase.

So this monitor looks great! It plays games really well and has great color/saturation/brightness/etc. HOWEVER, I have some complaints. I ordered this monitor to replace an older Spectre one that was starting to get lines at the bottom. When I ordered it the first time I plugged it in and it looked great. Played some games and had fun with it. My PC fell asleep while I was afk and when I came back to wake it up, boom, the dreaded lines and a dead pixel popped up. This was the SAME DAY I had just gotten it. So I changed the DP cable to see if it was that and nope, it was in fact the monitor. I ordered a replacement and it arrived the next day. Im currently using this new replacement monitor and when I took it out of the box I had a few more issues. I ordered a new DP cable just in case and swapped it out beforehand. When I loaded up a game it started showing a bit of back flashing so I researched and finally saw it could be the NIVIDIA G-Sync. Turned that off and boom no more back flickering. Also would recommend turning down the sharpness as it can make some text look a bit pixeled. All in all its a great monitor for the price and looks awesome for games. If youre using it for 144hz make sure to have a Display Port cable or it will not get the max framerate. Also if you have some back flickering try turning off your NIVIDIA G-Sync. If youre willing to deal with a bit of issues its worth buying.

I really enjoyed the ultrawide experience of this monitor. I really wanted to love it, but coming from a ips panel (lg27gl850-b) everything just felt off. It wasnt as quick to respond which I could get over; I dont play many fps games. The ghosting and the overall black smearing just crippled its experience. Blacks just felt sluggish and degraded the image quality below what I could ignore, an overall beautiful picture ruined with motion. The inky blacks were night and day way better then ips, it just cant hold up to moving the screen quickly. To someone who hasnt felt what monitors can achieve I suppose theyd have a wonderful time playing on this monitor. If you have experience playing pc for a while you will want more then what this monitor can offer. Good luck and im not criticizing anyone who enjoys the experience of this panel its an amazing buy, just not for me.

When I got it, assembling it was super easy, and was able to get it up and running within 10 minutes of it arriving at my door step! Its really fast for games, and does what its intneded, a lkjsdlfgh jashg;
