Original Coupon Deal

I can't confirm this for certain as the product seems relatively 'new' and the reviews are light on detail and only seem to start around April 2020 but this monitor appears to be a 'new' version of the well-known and liked U2719D/U2719DC

Here's a tech spec comparison with the U2719DC:
https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/comparison/4c08117b…

Pic of my shopping cart with the two coupons applied:
https://imgur.com/a/r071BBk

Connectivity on the U2721DE appears to be quite good (and improved? over the U2719D/DC):
-DisplayPort (HDCP)
-HDMI (HDCP)
-USB-C upstream/DisplayPort (power up to 65W)
-DisplayPort output (MST)
-2 x USB 3.0 downstream with Battery Charging 1.2
-2 x USB 3.0 downstream
-Audio line-out (mini-jack)
-Ethernet (which i'm assuming it passes over USB-C to the connected device like laptop, a nice feature I thought)

Suitable for home office but refresh rate (60Hz) probably not going to suit gamers.

Shopback currently has 10% off on Dell so don't forget to click through from Shopback to bring the total down to $580.

Personally I was looking for q QHD IPS 27" for home office. I started at the U2719DC (which is out of stock at Dell), then I stumbled on good comments here and on other sites about the HP 27n G2 (but the HP lacks USB-C power delivery which I wanted for my laptop). Both of these screens are $630 and $600 cheapest on staticice in NSW. When I found the U2721DE for $580 (after coupons and Shopback) I was happy to buy. I considered something with similar specs but cheaper from the likes of AOC but coming from a U2415 currently I was worried I wouldn't 'like' the AOC.

EDIT: 3:50pm 27/6 - removed Shopback references due to comments in chat; seems like Shopback not possible unless the codes are from the Shopback site. Sorry for the bum steer!

        I scored an extra $70 cash back on this. The employee benefits program through my work (Reward Gateway) has increased it to 12% for all Dell purchases. Although I wasn’t expecting it to happen because I was using the coupons above, I’ve just checked my balance and it’s come through anyway. Sweet!

        • Meovel on 28/06/2020 - 13:32

          It's just "tracked" right? Pending not confirmed and available to withdraw.
          Afaik the T&C for rewards are "not work with coupon unless otherwise stated in the offer".

          • Chazzozz on 28/06/2020 - 13:38

            @Meovel: Hmmm…good point. I’m just looking in the phone app and it’s showing ‘Balance - available now’ so I’m assuming it’s all good. I guess I’ll know when it’s reconciled at the end of the month. I’ll also take a look on the web site later when I’m using a computer, in case it shows anything different.

            • Meovel on 28/06/2020 - 13:47

              @Chazzozz: Mind sharing which page of the app shows this info? I played around didn't seem to find one showing Balance - available now :)

            • Meovel on 28/06/2020 - 13:49

              @Chazzozz: Is it under "My Account - Your confirmed balance - Available to withdraw right now"?

              • Chazzozz on 28/06/2020 - 15:53

                @Meovel: Yes, that's the one. I'm looking at it in the Smart Spending phone app. I haven't looked in the full web site yet, so I can't confirm if it's still pending or genuinely available.

                • Meovel on 28/06/2020 - 15:56

                  @Chazzozz: If it's in "Your confirmed balance" section then should be available, all mine were in "Your total balance" which is pending.
                  I'm amazed if it directly goes into your confirmed balance, haven't seen cashback without need for merchant approval. Would be too good to be true :)

        Should I worry about getting a high refresh rate monitor if I only play single player? Is it just about getting an advantage over other players?

        • ATangk on 27/06/2020 - 16:05
          +1

          It depends on the kind of game too. FPS games and other games with fast moving content (e.g. racing games) will benefit with high refresh rate (if your graphics card can handle it), reducing the motion blur in your games. LTT had a video on 60 vs 144 vs 240hz, and it definitely makes a difference. As to how much of a difference will depend on how casual/serious you game.

          • Diji1 on 27/06/2020 - 18:38

            @ATangk: Doesn't aid driving games much since they don't have much fast moving content. Or at least realistic driving games anyway.

        • Diji1 on 27/06/2020 - 18:39

          If you play games such as Tetris or Nex Machina it makes a large difference.

      Just trying to point out that is a lot of money for a 27" 60hz monitor in 2020. It is nothing to do with either you are a gamer or not. Please go ahead and buy it if it is right for you.

      • JAKEBAB on 27/06/2020 - 15:36

        It's a lot of money for a 1440p monitor in 2020 considering they've been around just as long as 1080p monitors.

      • dude04 on 27/06/2020 - 15:41
        +2

        Not being smart: but would love to see your suggestion of something similar (QHD, IPS, office-rather-than-gaming suited ie. Colour and contrast over gaming performance for similar or less money that is higher refresh?)

        Genuine question as i had this running through my head pre purchase but i assumed that everything with high refresh rate was geared toward gaming and not colour, contrast, ease on eyes etc, the typical office monitor traits.

        Not too late to cancel my order…

        • ju2au on 27/06/2020 - 15:48

          I brought this Kogan 27" monitor and it was delivered to me yesterday:
          https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-27-qhd-ips-usb-c-freesync…

          Costs $399 and general specs are very similar to the Dell. Also has extra features such as 75Hz and FreeSync. Obviously, the biggest drawback is that it's Kogan branded rather than Dell but all the features seems to work as advertised and I can't find any dead pixels.

          • congo on 27/06/2020 - 16:04

            @ju2au: How is it?

            • ju2au on 27/06/2020 - 16:10

              @congo: @congo Everything seems good. Biggest drawback is that the button controls are at the back of the monitor in the bottom right corner so adjust settings is rather fiddly.

            +6

            @ju2au: There's a lot more to a good quality picture than the spec list. Dell Ultrasharps are excellent in important stuff like colour accuracy that don't fit conveniently into a number in the ad.

            That's without factoring in the reliability.

        • ln28909 on 27/06/2020 - 16:15

          got this AOC Q27T1 for $364, QHD, IPS, Office, 350nits, 90% Adobe RGB, 75Hz

          Ports and adjustable mount doesn't add so much value in my opinion but make the price tag sky rocket

          • syousef on 27/06/2020 - 19:11

            @ln28909: Adjustable mount is worth it. Not so much a built in USB hub. Speakers - even little tinny ones as long as you can also hook up bigger ones are also a good thing to have. The thing that puts me off this particular monitor though is the 8 bit panel. it's a good 8 bit panel but still 8 bit.

          There really isn't, because some people love to focus on just the refresh rate while neglecting literally everything else (panel uniformity, response times, colour accuracy, colour spaces supported, connectivity features) as if it's the only thing that matters.

          Quality control can be fairly horrible on some gaming monitors. Some gamers are so hell-bent on getting a high-refresh rate monitor, even at the cost of everything else. People need to understand that refresh rate is part of the equation when considering a monitor — not the only holy criterion.

          • quanticism on 27/06/2020 - 19:57

            @fezzo: Is there a detailed comparison of this with a similarly priced "gaming" monitor that offers 144Hz, IPS, freesync and low response time (and input lag) so we can see exactly what was neglected? How much of a difference is there with color accuracy?

            • fezzo on 28/06/2020 - 01:49

              @quanticism: Check out the review of this monitor on RTINGS. You can compare it directly with other monitors on their site. Pretty useful resource.

        • ATangk on 27/06/2020 - 20:41

          If you really wanted colour you should be looking at VESA HDR600 monitors. HDR400 is almost useless certification, and HDR1000 is $$$$$.

          There were a few recent deals on this Dell S2719DC thats similar to this one, although probably less ports and lacks adjustability.

      • Circly on 27/06/2020 - 16:18
        +2

        I have a u2715H from a couple of years ago which I got for a similar price.

        Absolutely worth the price. This one has usb c, more connectivity and better panel on top. I think it's worth it. Not sure what alternatives there are for similar specs.

      • entropysbane on 28/06/2020 - 10:17

        Well, it is an ultraclear IPS model individually tested and colour calibrated. Consequently the screen is higher spec than most consumer and business class monitors, plus has a built in USB-c dock that powers a laptop with a single cable. Those features cost, and a lot of laptops would have trouble pushing more than 60Hz over USB-c.
        It isn’t intended as a gaming monitor, but is certainly up there for a media business or hobbyist.

    • boretentsu on 27/06/2020 - 19:17

      Hi please do elaborate; for my sake and others.

      I reviewed the T&C's before my purchase and couldn't find how this would be excluded. I hope I'm not wrong :(

      Here they are:
      Notes
      Excludes taxes, fees or additional extras

      Terms & Conditions
      ShopBack must be the last link you clicked in order to get Cashback. If other website links are clicked after clicking through ShopBack, Cashback will not be tracked (E.g. coupon websites and deal websites)

      Accounts that engage in fraudulent orders/activities to game/cheat the Cashback system will be banned and Cashback forfeited

      • SydEP on 27/06/2020 - 15:37

        You're looking at other T&Cs. Look under 'To ensure your cashback is tracked' - DONT's point 1:
        Promo codes or voucher codes not approved by ShopBack
        Gift card purchases unless otherwise stated
        Returns, exchanges & cancellations
        Purchases through the Dell mobile app and Dell Outlet purchases

        $645 is still a good price!

      • ln28909 on 27/06/2020 - 15:38

        on the Apps, it says

        Don't
        Promo codes or voucher codes not approved by Shopback

        so I think that the cashback may track but won't be approved

        Also, this one is not as good as the S2719DC right?

    I would prefer this U2721DE to that 4K one. QHD is good enough for a 27" monitor, while not putting too much pressure on computer.
    USB-C is great - now my desk has only two cables.

        4K at 100% scaling on a 27" is too small to read anything. Windows defaults to 150% scaling which is good.

    • darkyjaz95 on 27/06/2020 - 20:11

      Do you see darkness around the corners of the monitor. It's an issue on U2719DC.

      • Averell on 27/06/2020 - 22:45

        No, but brightness at the centre of the monitor. When the room is dark, screen's brightness is at 0, and the screen has a grey/black background, I could see that the centre area is noticeably brighter than the rest of the screen. It looks like having a bright LED behind it.
        I didn't have that issue with my U2417H

        It's one power cable for the monitor, and one USB-C cable which handles both video signal as well as power supply for the laptop.
        Technically with this monitor you don't need a separate docking station (one of the things Dell is selling for around $400) anymore.

      Really depends what you're buying it for and what your use case is, usb-c, pivot, height adjustable stand, dell premium warranty will be worth it for some over say free-sync.

        But the LG he's referring to the LG 27GL850 does have USB-C, does have pivot and is height adjustable. I've got one sitting on my desk now.

          I was clearly commenting on the Kogan that Simonlee references, specifically links to and comments on being half the price, not some non-descript LG/Asus which may or may not be around the $600 mark.

          Does the LG also charge the laptop via usb-c?

        yes, the features you mentioned are good. But not worth extra $300, in my opinion $150 tops. If this Dell was around $450, it would be a good deal.

        For $600+, I would be looking at IPS, 2K, 27'/32', 120hz+, plus some small features like usb-c, height adj, pivot etc.

    Does it support daisy chain?

    • Meovel on 27/06/2020 - 22:13

      Ok the video suggests support daisy chain.
      According to the referenced displayspec, U2721DE with HDCP 1.4 while U2919DC with HDCP 2.2?

    Would this be ok for casual gaming?
