This monitor has gone front page everytime. I thought it would have gained more traction by now.
Is there something I should have done different so the masses notice it?

Now available at Best buy too.

Tough to say. Sometimes it takes time. Right now, with people returning to the office, large monitors aren't as in demand. And even if they need monitors for WFH, they may not need a gaming one, so pricing for a 27" would be closer to $150-$200 per monitor. With inflation, other financial issues, people have less money for discretionary purchases. Thanks for posting.

As you said, it's been this offer several times and it might not be considered a great deal anymore. That said, thanks for posting the deal. I appreciate and thank you for the time and effort you took.

Ironically my Dell monitor died and I'm looking for a other one. It just turned off and never turned on or detected from computer despite different cables.

I did buy other 144hz 1440p 27 monitor around 180. So looking for less than 200 again. It's a 3rd monitor so I can wait to replace.

So you hit it on the dot.

I have this monitor and I have no complaints. I'm curious if there will be an update to this monitor (soon)? That was a question, not a statement.
Just curious since I believe this monitor has been out for a few years now.
And I need a second monitor.

This looks to be a fantastic WFH monitor. I'm using some older P2715's and when coupled with the M1 Pro the refresh rates just bug. I like the 27" real estate but like the higher refresh rate and for $299 this seems like a great deal. I don't monitor shop often but from what i've seen out there in the marketplace and online, not much else comes close to this in terms of features.

The model is S2721, so it's only been out for over a year (all other assumptions removed). But it is a 2021 model.

While it is good monitor the price seems more and more not desireable at this point...similar ips monitors often goining much less close to 200 and after I got HP X27Q from treasure box I can't justify to spend this much for 2k ips monitor. I am now in for cheap office monitors to change aging office vga monitors. 27inch 2k ips 60hz monitors for cheaper?

The thumbnail image makes this monitor looks like a 4:3. I wish I can still find those around. LG came out with a double monitor--DualUp (stacked on top) but it's still way too expensive for my needs. https://www.theverge.com/2021/12/...nced-specs

Good monitor, both freesync and gsync work well. I do get random flashings if I use 10-bit color option along with 144 or 165 hz. Switching to 8-bit color depth solved the issue completely. It could be the DP cable that came with the monitor, and I haven't tried another/better cable yet. I don't think this is a true 10bit panel anyway(?)

Great deal! I got the Monoprice Dark Matter, but would have preferred the Dell over the Monoprice.
