I use it daily. regular dev work with no issues. I think some people can be sensitive to the flicker and text clarity, so check it out at a store nearby if you can.

For me, the wording on the Amex offer is "Earn a one-time $100 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $500 in one or more purchases online at dell.com by 1/31/2026. See terms."
So separate charges should still work

Community Reviews

The AW3423DWF stands out as a 34 inch QD OLED ultrawide that feels excellent for gaming, with 165 hertz, deep blacks, strong contrast, and bright movie playback. It also works well for everyday work and even development, and the firmware can now be updated through the monitor connection. The main tradeoffs are OLED text fringing, occasional flicker sensitivity, pixel refresh prompts, and some burn in risk over long use. At $450, it reads as a very strong value if you can live with the OLED quirks.

My Amex card is running it's own rewards for dell.com giving extra miles and $100 back on purchases over $500. The 10% discount brought my cart down to ~$480. I tossed in a KB+M to get it over $500, unfortunately, it split up the charges when it actually hit the card, so I don't believe it would have given me the $100 credit. I cancelled as I wasn't that committed to the monitor to begin with.
You could get the $799 model (AW3425DW) and get the $100 Amex credit, bringing your total to $699 but the shared Alienware 10% coupon does not work on that model.
Mine showed split charges at first, then combined them and I got a notification from Amex that the offer was fulfilled

YMMV but Amazon is offering 10% back using their Prime Visa on the same monitor. $500 is the price in cart but considering 10% ($50) back, that's $450.

I also pulled the trigger during BF, went from a Dell 32 inch Curved 4k Monitor to this, and wowowowow wwwwweeeeee! Looks amazing for games plus, 165hz you cant beat it. Go for it at this price its worth it. For those who come after!

No speakers - no deal. I mean, it's so convenient not to have the wasted space of speakers; they should be built in. Was going to pull the trigger I am sick of my 35" x2 VA screens - way too dim. moving on.

Brother, in no way, shape, or form should speakers ever be considered when looking at OLED monitors for an office/computer/gaming room. You should be using either headphones or a speaker setup. Unless you absolutely do not care about how crappy the audio you're listening to is. However, I'm not sure where you're getting this info from, as this monitor does indeed have speakers. It does! I have owned it for 2 years. Here's proof [imgur.com] Wink

How's QD-OLED for productivity?
i have been using the samsung g8, similar to this model. its been a little over month. use autocad, outlook, web, excel. it seems amazing. i guess windows 11 cleartype has improved greatly for OLEDs so the text looks great.

i came from a same resolution ips monitor. i definitely like the OLED more.

the only thing that bugs me. im getting used to it little by little. is the pixel shift. not sure if the alienware has that. but every few minutes the pixels shift a bit.

Mine shows as split charges on my Amex, and on my email for dell it all in the same transaction but says it will change split since it's different deliveries. dumb for them to do that and too late for me to cancel, makes me wonder if I will still receive cb.

yea...I see I'm getting an extra bonus, but I only see it when I hover over the payment or maybe the confirmation section. I went ahead and ordered it.

Got the monitor today. It's outstanding. Text fringe "maybe" on desktop icons? But otherwise rendered text on webpage, applications, or anywhere else is absolutely perfect. The inky blacks are amazing and color just pops everywhere with HDR. For $450 you can't go wrong. I'm coming from a 2016 ASUS PG348Q 34" that was sort of on the fritz with port failures when the monitor was off/cold and a dead pixel or two that came and went. Upgrade in every way. The 1800R is not as bad as I thought it would be coming from 3800R. Tempted to buy another for above it or side by side...
