Cheaper on numerous other sites. Simple google search brings them up
This is the newly released model IPS model (AW2521HF) not the older TN version (AW2518HF). There are no sites brought up from a Google search which currently have a lower price for the AW2521HF.
If you have an account it goes to 369 or such. But I cant justify this price since I can get the TN panel mode for 269 at microcenter. After checking reviews, people say the AW2518H TN panel has pretty good colors regardless for a TN panel and they even compare to IPS. And viewing angles are not terrible since I will only by using 1 monitor and looking at it straight. I am planning on getting the TN model and if I am not satisfied ordering this and returning that one.
You're right, the TN panel does have pretty good color after a little adjustment. I got it (AW2518HF, freesync model) for my son more than a year ago and he loves it.
I have the TN version as well as the 27in 144hz that was popular a while back. one nice thing about dell is their borderless design. I did not think I cared about it until I got a NX edg27 ips 144hz with gigantic bezels
I doubt any TN panel can come close to an IPS panel, you can't just crank up saturation and contrast in OSD and call it an IPS competitor. If it were down to me I'd definitely cough up 100 more for IPS
