I bought this Dell and the LG 27GN850 which is very similar, but didn't keep either because I couldn't stand the very intrusive IPS glow, the noticeable backlight bleed and their very poor black levels when used in a dimly-lit room. Black looks dark gray with these IPS panels if your ambient environment is not very bright and I can't stand that, it ruins the immersion when watching movies or playing dark games like Batman Arkham series. I've bought the Samsung G7 now which is a very fast VA panel with excellent response time, proper inky blacks and great colour fidelity and I'm much happier with it. The picture is almost perfect, but I wish they had made a flat(ter) version because I'm not really fond of the 1000R curved design, it's a very pronounced curve which is just unnecessary for a 27" 16:9 aspect panel, IMO. It seems we won't have a perfect design that's good at everything until OLED comes in monitor sizes (LG's 48" TV is great, but it's still way too large to be used as a PC monitor on a desk)

Hardware Unboxed: "Small update to this one, as it turns out if you use the Extreme overdrive mode with adaptive sync (FreeSync, G-Sync) disabled, you will get WAY WORSE results. We always test with adaptive sync enabled and it looks like when you enable this feature, it will switch to using a more modest set of overdrive settings. That might be important for you if you plan on using this monitor without adaptive sync (use the Super Fast or Fast mode) --- Based on my testing with an Nvidia GPU it needs both the AMD FreeSync Premium Pro setting enabled, AND G-Sync to be enabled in the Nvidia Control Panel. However, it also looks like if you override the G-Sync setting on an individual game basis (while keeping the global setting enabled) that it will retain the 'better' overdrive settings" My question is: do you think using a Radeon GPU would bypass the issue with the overdrive modes, as it seems to be G-Sync related?

9:10 wouldn't you need to measure the response times to determine whether there is no effect when changing modes? I know HUB screwed up by not testing with freesync disabled but with their testing with it enabled it showed a decrease from 5.3 to 3.9ms, that would mean that the overdrive modes are doing something it's just more conservative, if anything I would think that not including monitor settings for modes with unusable overshoot is a good thing.

I purchased the monitor based on your review since it was on a flash-sale. Long story short, the one that arrived was the S2721DGFA (emphasis on A, manufacture date nov 2020) like 3 months ago and some days ago I noticed it developed a stuck pixel (green) today Dell sent me what looked like a refurbished S2721DGF (no A, as in, not the Eu version, I assume. Manufacture date Agu 2020 but with a sticker REV01) as a replacement. Initially, the A version had a very strong yellow tint to it, I had to adjust. The REV01 looks almost perfect out of the box color wise, I don't think I even need to take it out of standard mode and go into RGB (custom) but it has backlight bleeding and the black is not exactly uniform, the bottom right corner being the most noticeable. It's quite weird that the A, which was manufactured AFTER the REVO1 was suffering from a yellow tint.. but I digress.. Any advice of what I should do, should I bother asking for another RMA or perhaps attempt to demand the RVO2? I heard from some people on reddit that said revisions has good uniformity. As for the freesync issue, do you think it's worth going to a monitor that uses faster overdrives properly just for that reason alone? (I Mostly play MMORPG's)I am really sorry, this is a bit too much but I would really appreciate it if you could answer. Thanks!

Just a note: do not use Spyder hardware to check black lebels, they aren't good at measuring contrast at all. That's why you got a result of barely 600:1 contrast ratio when in reality it is around 850-900:1.
@techlessYT

Great to see you still hanging around here Hanon! The Spyder 5 surely isn't the best device. But take a look at my Asus VG249Q review for instance: I measured 1068:1 with the same Spyder. So the Spyder would easily be capable to measure something around 850-900:1 if my copy of the Dell would reach such contrast ratios. I often measure lower contrast ratios than others as I stick to a brightness of 140nits and do a pre calibration to roughly D65 first - I believe that improves comparability between different monitors. Of course many monitors will measure higher contrast ratios at max brightness and out-of-the-box white points that may be totally off. Anyways I'm thinking about upgrading my colorimeter :-)

@@knl654 ah interesting, over here in Germany the proart currently costs about the same as the dell. You seem to have to make a similar decision to mine. I'm also on the hunt for a 27 inch monitor that's 1440p, more than 100Hz and (somewhat) color accurate. As far as my research of the last few days has shown, this Dell and the MSI MAG274QRFDE-QD are both good choices. Or at least as good as it gets right now in this price region. I want to buy two monitors to replace my current dual monitor setup, so they have to be somewhat affordable. As for the ICC profile topic, I recommend you to check out the videos of this "techless" channel on ICC profiles. ICC profiles are at least worth a try I'd say if you need a color accurate monitor, but you seem to need to be cautious about which profile you can trust (one of techless's videos is on this topic). For gaming I suppose you don't need an ICC profile, for work it depends on your programs and if you need color accurary. (Although all 27 inch high refresh rate 1440p monitors below 400 dollars or euros don't seem to be the best choice for high-grade professional photo editing where the most exact color accuracy is needed, as far as I have found out) I'm not an expert at all though, I'm just in the same situation of searching a new monitor :)

@@justus9694 it's like 70$ more than dell, but i kind of liked to that refresh rate on dell where as ProArt only has 75hz but, i am not a hardcore gamer 60 is enough for me but the ProArt model is kind of really old from 3 years i guess, but i will wait until all the part arrives, someone told me to buy samsung s80a but it's VA panel and not recommended for creatives, so i dropped that Idea, well we will see when the time arrives something good will be released, and thanks for all the info on monitor and good night.

Is there a similar monitor with good contrast then? 144hz is fine. Just need a good that will take advantage of my Series X and do some photo and video editing on the side. HDR would be great as well.

Hi everyone, what would you say is the better monitor overall. HP Omen 27i or Dell S2721DGF?

Hmmm do you think the MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD is better for content creation/gaming than the dell? It also seems that not matter what wide gamut monitor you get these days it would be good to have a calibration device.

I'm a bit hesitant commenting on monitors that I haven't tested. But the MSI certainly looks pretty great based on HUB's testing. It may have the edge when it comes to content creation thanks to the higher contrast ratio. A colorimeter is pretty important when you're a bit more serious about content creation. Without that it's almost impossible to get accurate colors.

Does the ICC profile require any precalibration? Or should it be left in a specific mode (like standard mode)? I noticed your profile does nothing to change the monitor's settings itself so it's apparent the profile is not associated with it. Newbie at this.

I have owned both monitors and kept the Omen 27i. The Dell had a few dead pixes I couldn't live with. They use the same panel so I honestly couldn't tell a difference in speed or image quality.

It's very similar to the MSI MAG274QRF-QD, same gamut coverage, same refresh rate, same response time etc. Does it have an sRGB clamp? The MSI does not, and that is a shame, but otherwise, the MSI seems to be a little superior for lighting uniformity and results after calibration, at least on mine. Average DeltaE is 0.25 after calibration with DisplayCAL and Xrite i1Display Pro, and max is 1.79 on black due to IPS glow of course, which is the main gripe with IPS panels. Good monitor though, if it has an sRGB clamp, I might have chosen this one instead. But it's no big deal, as long as creation apps use profiles, colors are spot on in Photoshop, XNView etc. Nice review!

@@nobody9636 I use the User mode, so I can tune RGB parameters and brightness and contrast. Then I calibrate with DisplayCAL, a free tool far superior to Xrite's proprietary software, though less intuitive of course, but that's what makes it so powerful. MSI released a firmware update a few months ago, of which I was not aware, and lo and behold! There is now a sRGB clamp, and and Adobe mode AND a DCI P3 mode too! This makes it an almost perfect monitor for me.

Thanks man, after a long and tiresome search for a good monitor, I decided on this one and I love it. Got lucky in the panel lottery - no backlight bleed, minimal glow, and color was great out of the box. Actually surprised that the blacks are not even close to as bad as I was expecting. I still think my 15in 1080p laptop display looks a bit better but the dell was worth the 300 bucks.

sbout the contrast and black levels.. is there a nano ips monitor with much better levels in the same price range? if not, i dont see a big downside, if the only way to counter both problems at the same time, is to pay up and get higher tier panels. in many regards, i see monitors in the same way as tires.. no matter what, you cant get a 10/10 in everything, having one good thing, often means, some other part suffers for that and those monitors, that can get 10,9,9,8 without having a 7 in one regard, are expensive and out for most people

Awesome video as I just got mine today! I got a quick question for you or anyone else that can reply: it seems that my S2721DG came with a screen protector, a film (like those opaque ones we used to use in smartphones) but I'm not sure if that's really a protector and can be removed or if it's the 3H screen coating mentioned in the manual. Does anyone know?

Hello there. I bought this monitor and I have connected this to an old laptop with GT750M Nvidia card with HDMI. I get the option to select 1440p resolution with 60Hz. But for higher refresh rate, I have to select 1080p resolution and its only limited to 120Hz. I do not get any other higher refresh rates (>60Hz) at any resolution. There is no option to select. In advanced display settings, under 'list all modes' option, there is no high refresh rate option except for 1080p. Do you know whether this is my laptop that is causing this problem? or this monitor is defective?
@justus9694

It's a late reply, but this is most likely caused by your GPU and its HDMI standard. The GT750M has HDMI 1.4a output, which is able to transport 4K @ up to 30Hz or Full HD @ 120Hz. I haven't found any information on 1440p, but the 60Hz you reached make sense.
