I have the 27" inch version. Dell actually has a software you download from their website where you don't use the back buttons for screen settings at all. In case someone didn't know. Way easier than even the joystick on the back(which I also enjoyed), but the software made fine tuning everything extremely easy. Just Google Dell (insert model number) monitor software. Straight from Dell website, not 3rd party.

This was the lowest price for the DGM last year for BF at Best Buy. I ended up returning this when the 3220DGF dropped down to $300 as well but I really liked the physical control for monitor settings as it was a small joystick on the back versus a row of 6 buttons on the DGF.

I have the DGF, curious why you returned the DGM

If it's within 30 days... No issues. A day longer and tough luck.

DP1.2 can't push 165Hz @10 bit 1440p. I really wonder why manufacturers still use the outdated DP1.2 on higher refresh rate monitors and make you choose 8 bit color for higher refresh rates.

Pretty subjective. I have a Hisense U8G that is certainly a flagship Hisense, but when comparing prices with it's direct competition in Samsung, Sony, LG, and to a lesser degree Vizio, it certainly falls into the mid-range TV prices. I personally paid $650 for the 55" I have, and I would choose to take advantage of HDMI 2.1 and the PS5's capabilities to play 4k@120hz, of course with variable refresh rate and auto low latency mode, than to use a 2k monitor that is able to run at 165hz which the PS5 doesn't support to my knowledge, at any resolution. (I have a Series X so it's possible there are PS5 features I'm not familiar with so correct me if I'm wrong technically.) So it's subjective in terms of what you consider to be mid-range TV prices, as well as size differences at the same price point between monitors and TVs, MSRP vs on sale, and of course how you prioritize resolution, frame rates, screen size, contrast, and potentially latency. The PS5 also has a much smaller list of games that actually support 4k@120hz than the Xbox last I checked, so that may also be a factor.

Point is, I certainly would not default to this monitor over a wide range of TV possibilities, especially given the original retail price on this monitor of $500. There are certainly arguments to be made for going in either direction, especially as this year goes on and mini-LED tech becomes pretty standard for mid-range and up TVs. In particular, I would take a look at something like the new gaming oriented Vizio M-Series coming out this year, or higher-ranged models from last year or even 2020 going on clearance.

Then you must not notice the ghosting issues and contrast issues that are known with the U8G. Lag on the monitor is going to be 5x better than the lag on your U8G. I would choose that even with the lower 1080p quality for any games in which lag is crucial.

For starters I got the DGM for $330 before it went down to $300 and it came used (ripped box/box handle, not sealed by BB, opened packaging) but looking at reviews the overall build quality and degree to which you could tilt the monitor was better with the DGF, the DGM was slightly better for gaming. They're both great monitors but it is way easier to adjust settings on the DGM with the joystick controller than pushing 6-7 buttons and remembering which button does what and taking care not to hit the power.

It doesn't support it, but a lot of 1440p monitors will run downscaled when PS5 is set to 4k. I have not tested this exact monitor and it's not on any of the lists that I have come across, so I would definitely research it more. The Ultragear 32GN650-B we have works great with the PS5 and frequently goes on sale. The tiny list of PS5 games that support 120Hz is almost more concerning.
