    Dell is the only company I'm seeing willing to offer really competitive prices and reoccurring deals to satisfy as many customers as they can.

    If you want to be informed, simply set up a keyword reminder, there's some comments throughout this thread or click here.

    I'm glad Dell and I can bring you guys some smiles during covid. Stay safe OzB. ^^

      Thanks LiMaaa for bringing these great deals to the community. Just wondering if there’s any chance you could organise similar deals for the U series monitors too? I’m after the U3219Q and U2415 in particular.

        Tbh this monitor (S2721D) at this price point is perfect to pair with your current one. It's 2k, same size and perfect for WFH. Try nab one on the next deal.

      yes，read the above comment from LiMaaa. i recon 4k 27 is even better. only $80 more than 2k

      • poppingtags on 18/09/2020 - 21:21
        +11

        Make sure you know what you're getting into with a 27" 4k monitor!

        I have a 28" 4k monitor and I'll be moving to a dual 27" 1440p setup instead, thanks to this deal.

        A 4k - 27/28" monitor with the recommended scaling (150% on Windows) makes the viewport identical to that of an equivalently sized 1440p screen @ 100% scaling.

        It is true that you do get somewhat better detail thanks to higher PPI on the 4k screen, however that extra detail comes at the expense of far higher pressure placed on the GPU. This is especially of concern if you're using a laptop over a USB C dock to connect to the monitor, as many of them max out at 30Hz on a single 4k monitor - which is a noticeably poor refresh rate.

        In my opinion, most people need to move to 32" minimum to get any practical benefit from 4k. Tat said, it very much depends on your use case, there are certain content creation applications that can take advantage of the 4k resolution at 27".

        Just my two cents - hopefully others make an informed decision instead of falling for the 4k hype like I did!

        • ce5himm on 18/09/2020 - 21:28
          +2

          thanks for your comments. Sure it helps. I personally think 27 with 2k and 32 up with 4k are just sweet spot. I got myself a 2k.
          However there are people want something different. Anyway good deals.

        • ln28909 on 18/09/2020 - 21:59
          +6

          I'm the opposite to this actually. I currently run a dual 4k 28 upgrading from 27 2k and things are actually considerably sharper and nicer to look it with 4k. Maybe you don't get more real estate but the sharpness is definitely worth paying for if the difference is less than $50

          Before upgrading to a desktop, I used an XpS 15 with WD19TB dock and it could run dual 4k 60hz + 1 2k 144hz (plug directly to the laptop), don't think there was a lot of stress on the GPU either

          But yeah if you want to run 4k, you need a good dock that can do 60hz cause 30hz is unusable imo

          Though this would only work with TB3 so no love for AMD here

        • punkfans on 19/09/2020 - 02:34

          I prefer the S2721Q because it has better contrast and 10bit vs 8 bit colour, even though they both cover 99% sRGB only. Put a surface book next to my UP2716D the sharpness difference is visible. For office work and movie, I think most GPU should be fine, just need to check if the port supports.

          Btw, the 4K S3221QS is VA and curved, if it is IPS then it will be a no brainer.

  • MaxximusD on 19/09/2020 - 00:25

    Please, learn from this - learn reminder, learn subscribe, learn search alert notification, learn front page notification. Make sure your email is up to date and setup permanent notification on your phone. No matter how busy you are, check your phone when it beeps. You will not miss the next deal. Do not worry about this deal, next deal will be better. Why? Because it is electronics! Worst case, 27 inch 4K will be this price after a few years. Your 24 inch 1080 will get you through next few years okay. Enjoy the weekend. Remember to check your email notifications.

    Actually Dell can make deal as Pre Order, give us a rough delivery period, eg 2, 3 months, then they can make by the quantity of order.

  • noobphotographer on 19/09/2020 - 10:57

    Is there any difference between this and the popular $500 gaming variant which sold out a few weeks ago besides the high refresh rate?

    • LiMaaa on 19/09/2020 - 11:12
      +2

      It really just comes down to your level of gaming. The DGF is a premium option focused at the gaming market. They come with a premium panel, the same used in the LG GL850 without the $800+ price tag as well as high refresh for those looking to achieve near perfect 2k gaming with the new 30 series gpu.

      This monitor is exceptional quality for the price, without all the bells and whistles, which you can still utilise for WFH and gaming without the price premium should you choose to.

      • kiitos on 19/09/2020 - 11:44

        Thanks, I was wondering what the difference was between these two given the large difference in price. How are the panels different in this one?

        Hi LiMaa, thanks for your efforts to bring us the best deals from Dell.

        I ended up canceling my order due to the stand not being height adjustable.

        Any chance for you to bring back the DS version with height adjustable stand?

        Thanks.

      • noobphotographer on 19/09/2020 - 13:25

        Thanks for your reply. Really thinking I should have got this instead of the DGF since I do minimal gaming. Shame it's out of stock though :/

        Any chance this will be back in stock again at this price?

        • LiMaaa on 19/09/2020 - 13:46
          +1

          Short answer yes. When and how much stock I can't tell you yet. Can sell your dgf easily, a lot of demand.

  • taki on 19/09/2020 - 11:47

    Nice price. Can U pivot in portrait direction with sufficient hight? Non-reflective?
    2 essential features (that Apple never cares- sorry no deal :)

    • LiMaaa on 19/09/2020 - 13:52

      This model has tilt but not swivel or rotate. You would get a monitor mount for that or the DS version which has more adjustment options with that stand.

      As for reflectivity this has Screen Coating
      Anti-glare, 3H Hard Coating. Which coupled with IPS usually makes for very good viewing angles.

  • YasimKudomi on 19/09/2020 - 15:30

    Dell 27" S2721D ($239.20) VS S2721Q ($319.20), which one is a better buy?

    • LiMaaa on 19/09/2020 - 16:13

      It's entirely dependant on your needs / preference. They're almost identical, 2k vs 4k and a slightly higher refresh on the S2721D. Personally I prefer 2k @ 27".

      • YasimKudomi on 19/09/2020 - 17:33

        Thanks LiMaaa, It will be for general used only. Spreadsheet and for multiple screens display.

        Thanks all. Any suggestions on what I can get instead?

          VESA arm/mount, this monitor model supports 100x100mm VESA and so do most currently available VESA arms/mounts.

            @wkaxon: As the stand is very limiting to adjust. A mount is necessary for this monitor in general.

    Getting this deal is basically like trying to preorder a 3080 or one of the new consoles.

    Probably harder since least you knew what time those were up for preorder, you gotta be on Ozbargain and refresh right when it goes up which could be any time lol

    How does this compare to the u2717d? Does it have the same panel or better? I was thinking of getting one just for the 3 year warranty.

      both IPS and you probably can't tell the difference.
      aesthetically very identical with slim borders.

      S series seems to have better ratings than U series

      If you are a casual gamer then definitely opt for the S series because of Freesync and 75Hz.
      U Series is 60hz without freesync, comes with USB input ports, stand with full adjustability to pivot, tilt and swivel screen. But I can't justify the price difference monitor arms are a better and cheaper option.
