This was my pandemic monitor for WFH. It's a fantastic display. If you happen to be a Mac user, this is a slam dunk. The U2720 handles Display P3 like a champ. 95% coverage of the P3 gamut. The S2722 doesn't have a wide gamut, so it can't match the presentation of a MacBook Pro, MacBook Air (M1 or later has P3 gamut), etc. The 2720's factory calibration should be better, too. True photo/video work requires something better, but I've been really, really happy with the 2720 as a productivity monitor that's a natural extension of my Mac's built in display. I started the pandemic with a cheaper LG 4k that wasn't as color accurate and lacked P3 gamut (so, probably a lot like the S22). Things sometimes looked "off" when moving them between screens. Swapping the 2720 in "fixed" that, and I never think about the monitor now. I guess that's a strange way to praise the 2720, but it does its job well and never gets in the way.
If you only care about sRGB and value built in speakers, the S2722 is the better value.

Looks like even bezels and more USB ports / display port? Trying to think if it's worth the trouble returning the S2722QC and paying $50 more for this (thinking the screen is better on this ultrasharp, and really liking the extra ports and even all around bezel)
Trying to stack it with the AMEX cash back if you spend over $600
