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

It works as described.

Arrived late. Missing power cord. Otherwise a nice monitor.

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.

I use it for work and not gaming so I cannot comment on gaming. I have had the monitor for several months and no issues besides not being able to find the power button at first! Very good picture and would reccomend!

replaced a dell 1080p 15 years old still worked fine but needed better resolution for some 5mp cameras outstanding difference

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.

Was super excited to get this monitor, upon receiving it and plugging it in for the first time a quarter of the screen doesn’t work with lines all over the place.

First off - this monitor is amazing. BUT when I plugged it in via HDMI from my Lenovo Thinkpad the resolution was unbearable. This is the same problem with any UWS HD monitor especially if you are using it for work (which I am). I searched countless articles and videos on how to resolve and nothing worked but I figured out the solution so Im saving others my pain. First my laptop is corp issued, under powered and locked down to the point that I cant download .exe drivers. To fix the problem I bought a Startech.com Display port adaptor which has a small GPU installed in it to increase the resolution (about $100 on Amazon). Out of the box the Startech solved the problem but I did have to install the Display port driver from Displayport.com, and thankfully display port offers 3 different formats for the driver including .MSI which bypassed my .exe block on my corp computer. The monitor works perfectly and is totally game changing. So if you are stuck trying to drive it with an old or underpowered laptop get yourself the adaptor - was literally plug and play out of the box with the driver install and the monitor is perfect.

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 had one monitor already for gaming use, but instead I used it more for video editing and music creation, in fact, I liked it so much that I decided to buy another to have dual monitoring capabilities.
