This monitor has been going on sale at this price every few weeks, but it's still a good deal, especially with the AMEX bonus. Certain cash back sites will also offer up to 10% cash back at Dell, further lowering effective price per unit.

I have been using this for a while, and all around a great monitor. You can possibly find similar monitors (144 or 165 hz, 1440p ips) for a little cheaper ($200+) but you give up some properties like color accuracy, rotating/adjustable stand or the additional 4 usb 3.0 ports which are great additions but in a sense, you are paying additional for these if you choose this monitor. Note: if you have nvidia 10xx gtx cards, you may need to update the gpu firmware for displayport 1.4 to avoid some weird issues.

I'll leave this here for you to choose: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/to...shold=0.10
TLDR: if you don't care about ergonomics, gigabyte is better & cheaper

"Dang, I just bought Swiss cheese from Target - how does it compare to Meijer?" See how next to impossible that is to answer without more info?

Those 28" 4K are likely 60Hz and not high refresh rate made for gaming. Also, if u do game on 4K, you'd need a beefy graphics card to push all those pixels at a decent frame rate. 1440p like this Dell is the happy medium for gamers and ppl WFH

https://www.rtings.com/monitor/to...shold=0.10
GET THE SAMSUNG FOR $50 LESS INSTEAD FOR THESE REASONS...
click this link above and observe
-local dimming comparison
-**BLACK UNIFORMITY COMPARISON** (the dell looks horrible)
-response time @60hz
-input lag
-*PS5 compatabilty (observe the functionality, more importantly- the Samsung actually gives you a black screen, the Dell is garbage foggy grey light)
-XBOX Series compatability
-save $50!
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sams...Id=6471364
-clear winner for console gaming


REASONS for DELL
-pixel response time at max refresh rate is a TINY bit better...
-If you are a diehard competitive online fps player trying to make a career out of it, the Dell will be UNOTICABLY better, a difference of 1.8ms subtract the samsung's better input lag, about 1 ms in feeling (again only on pc at max refresh rate)

for the consideration of the casuals who just want a monitor to play some games on PLEASE do not insert bias on the pixel response time difference and give this a thumbs down.(please give a reason so people can get a clear picture)
The Dell has been my #1 monitor I've referred people to, but it has NO ability to give you a half decent dark scene. God forbid any one out there wants to watch a movie on this, or play Resident Evil or something, seriously!
