        Not all clicks are buyers. I've clicked though multiple times wondering if I should buy

        • MiscOzB on 02/08/2020 - 18:07

          True, as have I.

        • tkotk on 02/08/2020 - 18:20

          I clicked about 8 times. That was about enough to convince myself to buy.

    • gizmomelb on 02/08/2020 - 19:06

      it's Dell.. of course they have thousands of these things in warehouses because their main customers are corporates who buy multiple hundreds, to thousands of PCs and monitors at a time. The medium business I work for recently bought 300 x PCs, 600 x monitors, 100 laptops, 300 x UPS and 300 printers as well.

      • pull the lever on 02/08/2020 - 19:16

        True, but they may not be anticipating this many orders for a monitor most suited towards gaming.

    I guess I'll be selling my stupid viewsonic now

    • xristo on 02/08/2020 - 19:05

      Haha same here. Bought the viewsonic last month and hoping to sell it as I now have this dell on the way. Viewsonic one is ok, hoping this is much better

      Dont sell it til Monday is over. Sydneys ETA is 6th of August. Queensland and Melb/SA have their ETA on 11th.

      Price 3 days ago was 1.2k now $629 and stacking discount codes. I bought 1 too because im curious if itll actually go thru because i also wanted an LG850 while i have a viewsonic IPS 144hz. This price is too good to be true but I hope to god it goes through.

      • FireRunner on 02/08/2020 - 19:19

        Yeah, wasn't planning to sell until it arrived

    Wow 453 upvotes…I wonder how many bought? I tried an $85 coupon I received after I purchased a G3 from Dell a couple of months ago and it stacked!!! So I paid $422.93 all up!! I couldn't resist and bought! Thanks OP :)

  • cwangv on 02/08/2020 - 18:46

    Thanks, OP
    I bought one.
    One reason I pulled the trigger is that they included this:

    "Bundled Services: 3-Years Advanced Exchange Service and Premium Panel Guarantee" - this is a $49 option as listed.

    • 8azinga on 02/08/2020 - 18:57

      Where did you get it as a $49 option. Its always been included in the price AFAIK

      • cwangv on 02/08/2020 - 19:00
        +1

        it is listed after the visible warranty options. You need to click to expand it. On the main page, it states it only has basic warranty.

        revision- my mistake. It comes with 3-year replacement warranty. I mistook the 3-year Pro service as included in the price.

    • HeyHeyHeyIsItADeal on 02/08/2020 - 19:13

      This can go up to 165hz if you game it'll be good but if you just do basic work from home you're literally throwing your money just because FOMO. This has good ergo but if you're willing to shell out $500 now instead of more later on you save money in the long run.

      • mthwstwrt on 02/08/2020 - 19:21

        You're the best.

        I'm happy with 75hz for now, I'm really wanting curved next!!

        Fomo definitely getting me

          Personally I love 144Hz+ for general usage. Mouse movement is smooth, document scrolling is much smoother and it just feels easier on the eyes. Going back to 60Hz after using a 144Hz feels really bad. Also I'd recommend a flat panel over curved as it's better for text (curved is really a gimmick for non-ultra wide displays).

    • netsurfer on 02/08/2020 - 21:07

      If you want a reason not to buy the Dell because you already have that monitor, it would be this:

      You have a 31 inch monitor, this is 27 inch.

  • MaccDogg on 02/08/2020 - 20:39

    How does this compare to the lg 27gl850

    • gentlekoala5906 on 02/08/2020 - 20:54

      No one knows yet, it only launched a few days ago. There are unconfirmed claims online that it uses the same panel, but who knows what post processing they do.

      I've always been a fan of Dell monitors so decided to roll the dice. Hopefully it's a good monitor and hardware unboxed do a review

      • netsurfer on 02/08/2020 - 22:53

        The Dell monitor's button / joystick setup is like the Asus XG279Q (which has AUO). Generally, I don't like buttons at the back. I guess at least with the joystick, while not ideal, it is slightly easier to navigate than just buttons. In a dual monitor setup, if one of these is placed on the left, it could be a bit annoying).

        LG copying that panel design - as much as I hope that's the case, seems unlikely. Hope I am wrong and it's just Dell really likes that design.

        It's really annoying there are two sets of detailed specs being mentioned online.

    • netsurfer on 02/08/2020 - 21:37
      +3

      Specs wise, the Dell is better. Even if it ended up being the same panel, it probably has a newer firmware as it has:

      • AMD FreeSync Premium Pro (basically Freesync with HDR support).
      • The 165Hz (even if it is most likely overclock) on DisplayPort is not locked.
      • HDR-400 certified (though it only just manages to pass).

      LG could release a firmware to add some or all of those, but knowing LG, it won't do that.

      For the Dell monitor, the best case scenario is that this has the next iteration of the LG panel (with slight specs improvement) rather than just a firmware hack. It could be an AUO panel. Nothing is confirmed at the moment. The buttons placement for the Dell is similar to a monitor that uses an AUO panel though.

      However, honestly, those are all gimmicky features as based on the monitor specs, it is not a proper HDR anyway. The 400 cd/m2 could be just max brightness (as that's a requirement to pass HDR400 so this Dell barely passes it). Anyway, it is still far from ideal for HDR.

    Cheers

    • knight321 on 03/08/2020 - 00:43

      This monitor has both FreeSync and G-Sync compatibility so you're set for both :)

    • netsurfer on 03/08/2020 - 00:44
      +1

      It's G-Sync compatible (well, nVidia now adopts freesync so any freesync monitor is "compatible"). However, if you want HDR with adaptive sync on nVidia, you want G-Sync Ultimate. However, this monitor, specs wise, isn't really proper HDR.

      • Lightnight212 on 03/08/2020 - 00:59

        So is 'G-Sync Ultimate' effectively what I would find in gsync specific monitors? I thought I read there being a difference between g-sync compatible and it actually having a g-sync module or something?
        I guess I would be wanting HDR

        • netsurfer on 03/08/2020 - 10:17

          If you want adaptive sync with HDR on a high end nVidia card, then for now you want G-Sync Ultimate. nVidia could later introduce G-Sync Ultimate compatible or G-Sync HDR compatible. So, nVidia can introduce a driver update to support it, but it is unlikely to happen any time soon.

          Problem is, for G-Sync Ultimate, the monitor needs to reach 1000 nits. That would obviously qualify for real HDR. However, those monitors either won't be cheap or could be VA based monitors. Depends on what you feel about VA monitors. IPS would at least require local dimming and a much more powerful backlight than this (no, nano IPS alone isn't going to magically fix a technology limitation).

          We've seen people with nVidia cards getting this monitor. How important is HDR when you play a game which needs high framerate? For games which you really want to enjoy HDR, do you really need perfect framerate sync? Also, importantly, if HDR is a big deal to you, this is NOT the monitor to get. HDR400 is only sufficient to trick your brain if you have subpar SDR monitors currently. If you have decent monitors already, HDR400 won't wow you at all. If you already have an OLED panel based phone with HDR, I really doubt this monitor's HDR will wow you.

    Cheers doweyy, grabbed this deal yesterday, thanks for posting this.

  • DarkOz on 03/08/2020 - 07:43

    I don't think it's a pricing error. This is literally 20% off the RRP $629 for $507.

    I treat this as a similar great deal to the Dell G7 laptop with 10750H and RTX 2070 Max-P $2,500 with a further 20% off.

    The only way both deals will disappoint us is if:
    1. The RTX 2070 is actually Max-Q instead of Max-P. But Dell confirmed it in the Ebay page as Max-P.
    2. The monitor doesn't perform anywhere close to the LG panel.

    I just realised I bought both with a credit card that gives 1 year extended warranty. That's an additional saving of around $150?

    • Seph on 03/08/2020 - 08:52

      The pricing error some are suggesting is the initial RRP of $629. It’s listed as $1.2k on the NZ Dell site. I guess we’ll find out today.

I did call dell this morning to check if there are any issues and the agent advised that nothing seems to be wrong and it should be confirmed as well within today.

          Just strange that I made 3 consecutive orders but 1 of them didn't seem to get the confirmation status.

      Strange that you’d get that if you didn’t apply the code.

      I applied it but never got a delivery confirmation. So it weirdly different for everyone.

    Hmm, so if ecu5 was for Edith Cowan University students, what was the other coupon for? What sort of affiliates were they meant to be?

      Not sure if it's only for education, but it's the code that they give you when you go through unidays to get the dell student discount

    Code AUAFFILIATES15%OFF is still active this morning. I just pulled the trigger.

      Sounds like it is indeed the LG panel.

    Called just now to cancel my first order without the 5% discount, they are happy to refund and no restocking fee.
    Also, checked with my second order, they still advise the ETA is 6 Aug and I am based in SYD. So far it looks a genuine deal.

    I don't get it why people still getting it even if AUAFFILIATES15%OFF works? It comes to $1,044.65 with code, nowhere near $507.93

      It was $629 over the weekend. Not $1229. You missed out.

      Edit: Try again. It went back down to $629.

        Yeah but when you add to cart it shows $1229
