For $379.99 with Amazon's return policy, this is a no-brainer if an ultrawide VA panel fits your use case. 7.8/10 overall, 8.2/10 for gaming, and 7.6/10 for office use from RTINGS:

"The Dell S3422DWG is a very good 34 inch 1440p ultrawide monitor with a VA panel. It has good contrast and great black uniformity, so it looks great in a dark room. It's not too shabby in a bright room, either, as it has good reflection handling and great peak brightness in SDR. It's mainly marketed as a gaming monitor. It delivers a great gaming experience with a good response time at the max refresh rate, excellent low input lag, and support for FreeSync variable refresh rate technology. Although it's not officially G-SYNC compatible, it's also possible to still use G-SYNC over DisplayPort, but unfortunately, it doesn't work properly if your frame rate drops below 60fps. Sadly, like most VA panels, the image degrades at an angle, so it's not the best for co-op gaming…
The Dell S3422DWG 34 supports most formats supported by the . Since the don't support ultrawide aspect ratios, you have to set the Aspect Ratio setting to 'Auto Resize', otherwise the image will be stretched to fill the space. This results in black bars on either side, but the image is displayed correctly. Even though the native resolution of this monitor is below 4k, it can accept a 4k signal and downscale it to 1440p, resulting in a slightly sharper image than a native 1440p signal. Due to the bandwidth limits of the HDMI ports, though, it's limited to 60Hz if you decide to send a 4k signal."

VRR functions with Xbox Series S/X, but not PS5. It's not G-Sync certified, but G-Sync works via DisplayPort if fps is 60 or above. Ports: 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.0, 1x 3.5mm Audio Out, 4x USB-A, and the required 1x USB-B upstream port. It has Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture, and you can probably use PBP to ease screen snapping or screen sharing.

RTINGS lists the S3422DWG as their current pick for "Best Lower Mid-Range HDR Gaming Monitor": https://www.rtings.com/monitor/re...hdr-gaming

I almost bought the S3422DWG for $379.99 from Dell in November 2022, but I ended up getting a super ultrawide instead, as that was a better fit for my use case.
Not quite yet. But hopefully in a couple years!

Completely ignorant about this. Can I connect my laptop to the monitor via HDMI? If so, can someone suggest me a keyboard to go along with it?

Because you have not learned how to have money work hard for yourself instead of you working hard for the money.

I own a few of these; good value for a UW 34" 1440p @ 144hz monitor. It's been $380 before (Dell BF comes to mind). 3 year manufacturer warranty, I believe. I've got two placed vertically side by side with my setup.

Yes, it has an hdmi port. I have a monitor that is connected both to my deaktop and laptop. Whichever is active, it'll switch to that one. Keyboard? Well there's a wide range of keyboards. Gaming, office, etc. There isn't a specific keyboard that would be best for this specific monitor….

Yeah if your laptop has a hdmi port then it should connect. All monitors that are modern have hdmi ports.
If you're gaming I'd recommended a wireless keyboard so your laptop doesn't have to be necessarily close to you when setting up
