    Does this have speakers?

    Otherwise would this be a good monitor for Switch, PS4 Pro and PC Gaming all in one?

  • Melbubbles on 02/10/2020 - 11:58

    I have a 32" 4k and was looking for a 27" 2k to act as the 2nd screen (pivot to portrait). Am I better to get another 32" 4k to avoid the scaling issues? I am concerning my neck will hurt after turning left and right all day with 2 x 32". P.S. they are for work, I often need to have a few programs running at the same time and large spreadsheet.

  • Insert2Coins on 02/10/2020 - 11:58

    Will this be a good monitor for the ps5 and 3070?

    • PaPaGeorGeo on 02/10/2020 - 12:22
      +2

      Should be okay with PS5 as I think the general consensus is that there wont be many games that play above 4k@60FPS. It doesn't have HDMI 2.1 so you may not get all of the benefits of the 3070 (Im not a graphics card expert). There is a trade off between hz/FPS and Resolution at this price point.

    • netsurfer on 02/10/2020 - 17:18

      Will this be a good monitor for the ps5 and 3070?

      It comes down to two things:

      1. Will you use 3070 significantly more than PS5 on the monitor?
      2. Do you want >60 fps gaming for either one?

      This monitor is a compromise (price is good, but tech isn't next gen at all). Without HDMI 2.1 and technically not even quite HDR400 (which is a specs the display makers want the official spec to include to get the HDR tick), it isn't exactly forward looking to purchase this. It is, however, good value for money.

      Need to be realistic, no one is going to sell you a next gen monitor for $348.

  • [Deactivated] on 02/10/2020 - 11:59

    Tempting. I find text on my 1440p at 27" a bit poor after using higher resolution phones and such.

    • [Deactivated] on 02/10/2020 - 12:18

      My phone's 7 inches, at 1080 it's impossible to see anything on phones resolution wise on PC sure the bigger the monitor the more noticeable the pixel.

      But on phones or consoles No.

          What kills it for me is a comment below that it does not have HDCP 2.2 meaning it can't play UltraHD movies and stream Netflix in 4K (not I have have Netflix).
          I feel that comment maybe correct.. I hope not..

          What is the point of HDR if it cannot play this content? I guess games.

            @fredk1000: Op has mislead us all by not mentioning hdr, until op updates it doesn't have hdr.

            HDR on a oled TV is like watching the aurora borealis for the first time.

  • CookieCounter on 02/10/2020 - 12:18

    Thanks got one! Was tossing up spending thousands on one that could do 4K/144 fps but settled on this for a few hundred bucks in the meantime. Not sure what difference the 'S' version makes but I just got the 'non S' version.

    Excited to finally have display port and HDMI ports on a monitor. Probably will still be a secondary one as I still have a great 2K/144 fps monitor that I've been rocking.

    Free DELL shipping, hopefully no delays!

    Anyone comment if this monitor good for work and PS4 Pro gaming?

    • netsurfer on 02/10/2020 - 13:13
      +3

      Good for work? Depends, if you mostly use newer / up to date applications, display scaling will work well and should be fine (it will feel kinda like a 1440p monitor with display scaling). If you have old apps without supporting display scaling and OS assisted display scaling ended up not working well, it may be slightly unpleasant (or quite unpleasant).

      PS4 Pro gaming. You get 4K and honestly fake HDR (at this price, don't expect true HDR). 27 inch is too small to really enjoy 4K. You can still see the difference over 1440p (so it is technically still better). However, with PS4 Pro mostly use dynamic resolution, you are not really seeing true 4K for most games.

      • raven3090 on 02/10/2020 - 14:10

        thanks. Any monitor you suggest or I should keep an eye out for?

        • netsurfer on 02/10/2020 - 14:31

          4K TV is better for consoles at the moment. It depends on what you are really after. A lot of people just want to have a 4K display and Dell enticing people with a 4K display that's cheaper than 1440p gaming display isn't helping people to resist it.

          Ideally, we prefer 4K 120/144/165Hz gaming monitors to become more affordable (unlikely to happen soon though). Realistically, Sony has no incentive to support 1440p mode on PS4 Pro and quite possibly PS5 (even if the games in performance are actually 1440p) - because Sony sell TVs, but not PC monitors. Also, marketing wise, 4K sounds better to general public (though gamers may prefer 1440p high refresh).

          At this price range at the moment, it is all about compromises. Need to know your situation (what you have currently, priority and main usages for the new monitor - mostly gaming and watching videos or more general usage). It's really a decision you need to make.

          • reynoldspecial on 13/10/2020 - 18:24

            @netsurfer: Appreciate your comments and knowledge with monitors. You certainly helped many (including me) with the decision to buy S2721DGF monitor.

            Regarding this monitor 4K 2721Q paired with the 2K 2721DGF could you please share your thoughts.

            • I use both Mac OS (primarily) and Windows 10. My setup is a 10700k intel with 5700XT GPU.

            • My primary use case is for work - coding, documenting, spreadsheeting along with browsing and YouTube. Using dual monitor setup.

            • My secondary use will be PC gaming on the 2721DGF monitor.

      Dell give you a coupon worth 5% off your order to use on next order. Usually get it 2 months after it's delivered. Seems to have been an error and people who bought the S2721DGF got 5% of the RRP instead of what they paid or something like that.

  • Maxwell79 on 02/10/2020 - 23:25

    I bought and returned due to his wobbling stand, unbelievable, I purchased the S2721QS, way better stand. The panel quality is very good and sharp, but it is true that 4k is very high res for 27".

      Hi,

      How long have you had the screen? I thought they just came out.

      Was the panel/display quality consistent between the two panels you had?

      Not sure of your price difference you paid between the Q and QS model, you maybe could of bought a Monitor Stand with Pneumatic Arm for about $50.

      Thanks.

      Hi mate,

      Just wondering whether you have an XBox One S or X and have a UHD blu-ray by any chance? If yes, any chance you can test it on the monitor? Really hoping to clarify whether this monitor is limited to HDCP 1.4 or it actually supports HDCP 2.2 (which is needed to playback UHD blu-ray discs).

      • fredk1000 on 09/10/2020 - 22:51

        Hi,

        Sorry missed this message.

        I have received my monitor at my parents house so I do not have it in my hands yet. Yes I have Xbox One S, I pretty much bought the screen to watch UHD movie discs off it.

        I read comments that it does not support HDCP 2.2 after I bought it too which I thought was a bummer.
        I was going to try it first but if it did not work I was going to buy a HDMI splitter that gets round the HDCP 2.2 problem.

        First thing I test when I get it. Maybe next week?

        Fingers crossed.

        Someone commented PS4 Pro reports the screen to me HDCP 2.3.

        Yah..

        Sze Kai is such a killjoy. I was contemplating cancelling my order because of that comment that it did not have HDCP 2.2.
        I did research after that comment but found no real information about it but it did suggest it did not support it but the 32" did.

      • fredk1000 on 12/10/2020 - 22:05

        Hello

        I am glad to report that on my S2721Q and my XBox One S that I can play UHD Bluray discs.

        Xbox One S 4K TV Details;

        Watching Movies and TV
        Does not Support 4K at 50Hz
        Your TV Supports 4K 10-bit at 60Hz
        Your TV setup doesn't support all HDR10 modes
        Your TV setup doesn't support Dolby Vision

        Unfortunately I need to go and buy a DP cable, my PC has a DP to HDMI converter which seems not to support 4K. So just running on FHD for PC currently.
        :(

    • fredk1000 on 12/10/2020 - 22:37

      Hi Maxwell79

      I just got mine today.

      The Q model.

      The fixed stand seems okay to me, not much wobbling for me.
      Left and right wobble is almost none, slightly more front to back wobble.

      My LG 24" fixed stand had much worse wobble.

      But what I use for my desktop is pretty weighted and solid, I could image on a desk not so stable would wobble more though.

          +1

          That means you missed out on the local stock and the next upcoming batch from overseas. You are on batch 2. It is possible Dell is being conservative and you might be getting one from the upcoming batch (2 weeks from now). At this price, I expect a lot of OZBers getting them. The ETA is quite conservative. Dell is expecting to receive the monitors before then, and that ETA is close to the worst case.

                  @ChillBro: No, please read the question carefully, he mentioned laptop.

                  It's harder to properly test it with laptop and a lot of laptop makers don't make the HDMI port HDMI 2.0a with HDR.

                  You are asking him to go down the difficult path. Get the laptop to operate in HDMI 2.0 / 4K with HDR mode then test HDCP 2.2.

      • netsurfer on 06/10/2020 - 11:43

                  @albot: Netflix 4K required HDCP 2.2 so that double confirms it. Not to mention Cyberlink test (might have false negative - due to it tests GPU + monitor at the same time) shouldn't have false positive.

                  No need to do additional tests with XBox One X or PS4 Pro. Netflix 4K is a better test.

                  @albot: Sorry to trouble you. I just wanted to be very sure. Can you please play a 4k video on Netflix and press Ctlr+Alt+Shift+D to see if it's playing in 4k resolution?

                  It should state that its playing in 3840x2160p.

                  Thanks!

                    @Zeee123: Have you tried the Cyberlink software? You think it gives out false positive? To pass HDCP 2.2 test from that utility requires a graphics card that supports HDCP 2.2 and a monitor that supports HDCP 2.2.

                      @netsurfer: Yes, I believe the Cyberlink software gives out false positive. I have a HDCP 2.2 graphics card but a 1080p monitor that surely does not have HDCP 2.2 but the Cyberlink software checks HDCP 2.2 (GPU/Display) as PASS.

                      The best way to check is hitting Ctlr+Alt+Shift+D on Netflix to see if its playing at 3840x2160p.

                        @Zeee123: Well, Dell is quoting HDCP 2.2 support for their 27 inch 1440p gaming monitors.

                        The reason is simple. All monitors released after 2017 should support HDCP 2.2 (even ones before 2017 could already support HDCP 2.2), otherwise it is not doing the right thing for consumers. HDCP 2.2 is not something that's exclusive to 4K. Just because you have a 1080p screen, doesn't mean you shouldn't be allowed to play HDR or UHD blu rays (even if that meant supersampled down to 1080p).

                        It's just silly design or super cost saving to sell 2020 monitors not supporting HDCP 2.2, regardless of the resolution of the monitor.

                        HDCP 2.2 is a copy protection tech. It's not restricted to just 4K usage.

    BUYER BEWARE - so far I have not been able to get 60hz going on 3 computers.

    7 year old Mac Pro, using it's HDMI port as well as it's mini display port to HDMI cable.

    6th or 7th Gen ThinkPad X1 through its HDMI port.

    Huawei Matebook 13 2019 model using it's dongle that has a HDMI port.

    I can only get 30 or 29hz going.

    Awaiting a USB C to HDMI cable that is said to be able to do 4k 60hz to arrive to see if it works. Something to factor into the costs.

    Also I'll add that the left and right screen edges are very weird. They give this optical illusion that the screen is curving. It's kinda like those 3d post cards that you tilt and see different things.

      I think you'll find it's because the version of HDMI you have on the computers is older, needs to be and only up to 30hz at 4k. DP needs to be at least 1.2, which was released in 2010, so it's possible you Macbook Pro doesn't have it. HDMI version needs to be 2.0, released in 2013. I have an XPS15 9560 (2015) it's HDMI doesn't do 60hz but the mini DP does.

      I currently have the screen plugged into my XPS15, getting 60hz.

        Thanks for the info! The cable does work for me fortunately.
