05-06-2025I recently built a new gaming PC and wanted a 144hz monitor to replace my (now secondary) 60hz BenQ. After looking at the competition, I found this to be the best option on price alone. One caveat is that I thought this was an IPS monitor when I bought it. It is not, but you wont even notice! Theres a startling lack of glare, and it looks well at most viewing angles. The biggest difference between this and my BenQ, is that after calibration the colors are beautifully rich. I suspect that is also why the monitor tends to be a little darker, as the gamma and brightness lacks.

> 3 dayIt really does what it is for its price. It gives off that faster feel of gaming I was needing while having a bright screen. I had to get used to playing a smaller screen through because I was previously on a 32” tv, but ITV didn’t take long to get used to the size when the gaming was so sharp to play on. Was also really easy to install the stand with the monitor and wires, with the hdmi that came with it to give if that 144hz screen. I do reccommend this monitor if anyone is needing one at a good price range.

> 3 day**Arrival** The monitor arrived to me in perfect condition. There was little to no distress on the box (small dents on the edge of the box) and the contents were not damaged whatsoever **Packaging** The packaging on the monitor was normal standard. The Monitor was laying on foam with the screen face down. **STANDS** The Monitor stand has a very unique design which looks amazing. The shape stands out but not too much. Although what i dont like is the monitor cannot turn clockwise whatsoever which means this monitor cannot stand vertical if you are using the stand dell provides. You are able to tilt and adjust the monitors height **Colors/Brightness/Picture Quality** Compared to the S2417DG the colors are very bright. This monitor is just as bright as the AW2521HF. I am amazed at the colors of this monitor, for the price listed, its the best colors ive ever seen for a monitor for this price. It almost looks like a IPS. **Control Panel** The control panel has many options Really like how you are able to adjust the brightness and and the response time. Overall: I the monitor is 100% the best monitor for this price. You have so much access to adjust your display to your liking ( way more than my 240hz Asus monitor ) The display is so good it looks close to a IPS Monitor! This will be great for PS5 and Xbox since its 144hz and the new gens are going to be 120hz. Do I recommend this monitor? YES 100% Any Flaws? Yes, you cannot rotate your monitor vertically Whatsoever, only tilt and adjust the height Is it worth its price? YES 100% This was not a paid review, i 100% payed for this monitor

Greater than one weekThis monitor is very good for the money. It offers high refresh rate, and great image quality if you spend the time to adjust the settings. The color presets are terrible, but it is absolutely possible to dial in a great image on this monitor. The viewing angles are okay, the color distorts pretty quickly when not looking straight at the screen, but that is to be expected with any panel of this type. For gaming I think this is the best budget pick I have found. The stand is nice and adjustable for both height and angle.

> 3 dayThis monitor is an average gaming monitor but a good bang for your buck. If you turn the response time to “extreme” you will get a ghosting effect. (If you don’t know much about monitors, look up monitor ghosting on YouTube) I had to lower the setting down for my colors to get better in higher FPS games. If I had to redo my purchase, I might’ve saved up my money to get a better quality monitor

> 3 dayThey sorta lied about the 144hz but thats fine because it was still good no dead pixels or anything but there some ghosting so I would be careful but it generates my console gameplay pretty well and no serious issues so far.

> 3 dayI have been searching for good 144hz monitors but on a budget. I really wanted to go with a gaming brand that I was familiar with such as asus, acer, or MSI. I came across this just browsing through amazon and let me tell you, I was not dissapointed. This is the cleanest looking monitor ive ever used.

> 3 dayThis is an excellent gaming monitor for those of us who are also working from home during the pandemic. Colors are great for a TN panel. One of the things I like the most about it is the ability to adjust the height of the stand. I have a sit stand desk at my studio that I often times swing up and down during the day while working. The ergo capabilities of the monitor makes it so much easier on my column to withstand the entire day at home! I would definitely recommend it to anyone in the market for a gaming monitor. At $199 it won’t break your bank, and you’re getting an impressive 144hz refresh rate!
