The Dell S2522HG catches my eye and ticks all the right boxes. However, it seems that it this monitor is still relatively new and I haven't been able to find any kind of reviews on it. Even Amazon has no reviews on this monitor, which is a bit strange. Does anyone have any info or reviews about this monitor and how it performs in comparison to its impressive spec sheet?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Why settle for full retail price when you can wait and get it at a lower price for better value (even better if there's a bundled freebies deal)? 😉

Please also check what your graphic card can support. It has it's limitations.
Also I did contemplate about the 4K monitor S2721Q before, but didn't pull the trigger due to grey boarder issue. It's noted on rting review and many reddit post as well. It's not a deal breaker for some but it's something to consider
edit: fixed a word board to boarder

75Hz or 60Hz.
I wouldn't if you do PC gaming. What's the point of having all that power if your monitor is capped at 75 fps?

Thanks OP. Perfect timing. Was wanting to replace my two 23” 1080p monitors.

Sorry Ryan, I am a newbie too. I would start by google it and see what other tried and check out their specs etc. I am hoping others will chime in to help you as well ^^"

Read reviews on your graphics card (for desktops).
My Sapphire 5600xt can apparently handle 1440 based on detailed reviewed showing framerates, etc.
Given your listing laptops, doing the same for the laptops in question might give some insight, although may be safe to say that if not a gaming laptop, you may be limited to 1080p, but I could be wrong.

From experience? What does that mean? You have used both the 4K Samsung and the monitors that are on sale on this thread?
The Samsung was IPS

This might sound stupid but why not buy like a bigger 4k Samsung/LG tv instead of monitors? The refresh rate? It's about the same price

Just thought I'd post that I ordered the DS model a few months back, 2 of them for dual screen, and the first two monitors I got had a single dead pixel each. I returned both and Dell sent me 2 new ones.
Monitor 3 was perfect but monitor 4 had a yellowish tint to it. I might not have noticed but next to monitor 3 for my work from home setup, I could tell as when I moved Outlook or Windows Explorer from one monitor to the next I could see the colour difference from true white to that yellowish white. Normally I don't care for these things but I couldn't stop noticing it after and given that I was spending closer to 600 ish on them, I wanted them to be working as expected.
I returned monitor 4, and they gave me monitor 5, and monitor 5 had the same yellow issue.
I ended up returning 3, 4 and 5.
I then just spent the extra money and got the ultrasharp 27 inch model for around $488 each after taxes. Pricier but both came perfect out of the box, no pixels, no yellow colour, and 3 year warranty is standard.
Not saying the D or DS model isn't worth it, but just be aware to check for dead pixels and the yellow issue. It's a great price though if you can look past the yellowish issue (if your monitor happens to have it).

Dell easy returns applies to this or not?
Website isn't clear about 15% restocking fee vs Dell easy return which has no stocking fee.
Anyone have any recent experience?

Didn't see VESA on the 4k, dealbreaker for me unfortunately.
EDIT: Nevermind, website says VESA but no details on VESA measurements.

Thanks OP. Been looking for a 27 inch work monitor that can handle 4K well enough. $315 is a sweet price point.
