          Time to buy a matching 2nd and 3rd :P

          • xoom on 03/03/2023 - 14:29

            @Trance N Dance: Exactly. And monitor arms to go with it.

            • IJustKnowStuff on 03/03/2023 - 14:59

              @xoom: Highly recommend getting individual arms for each monitor. Usually is easier to manage monitors and angles then.

        • FireRunner on 03/03/2023 - 14:34

          Did you buy from Dell?
          Can you cancel or maybe ask for a refund on the price difference?
          Worse they can do is say no, so no harm in asking.

              @NiceGarry: I recall seeing that Dell has a 30 day price guarantee when I purchased mine.
              https://www.dell.com/en-au/lp/price-match-guarantee#30-Days-Price-guarantee-(After-Purchase)

      Got mine 2 weeks ago, needed to grab them and didnt want to risk price going up again. 430 odd each was good enough for me

        As others have said in the thread, you can get a refund for the price difference if within 30 days of the purchase (if purchased from Dell).

        • bigbaddbaz on 03/03/2023 - 20:10

          Oh true! Got them 3rd Feb, just snuck in! Thanks

    • ricol on 03/03/2023 - 16:53

      I bought one about 28 days ago. Just called Dell as they have 30 days Price Guarantee, they will refund the difference, but unfortunately, they won't apply the coupon. Anyway, better than nothing.

    I was disappointed by this monitor, HDR sucks and general picture quality is worse than my U2515

  • maegajang on 03/03/2023 - 14:33

    Is this an avg price for 27" 1440p with high refresh rate?
    Was buying a monitor a year or two back and couldve sworn they were alot more affordable back then.

    • FireRunner on 03/03/2023 - 14:34
      +4

      Were they TN panels monitors?
      Sub $400 is not common with 1440p 144Hz+ IPS displays

      • maegajang on 03/03/2023 - 16:47

        Could be why, been a while.

        I'm on the market for a 27" 1440p IPS but think I'd only really want 120hz, maybe 144.

        Is it worth grabbing this regardless?
        Not sure how noticeable the difference from 120-144-165hz could be,
        think I'd rather save with a lower refresh rate than spend so much.

        Thoughts?

        • FireRunner on 03/03/2023 - 17:16
          +1

          I think all the little features make this a worthwhile purchase.
          USB hub, ergonomics, solid stand, 400 nit brightness, etc
          Don't think you'll save much with a cheaper 27" 1440p 144Hz but will miss out on the nice features that make the monitor better.

          I had a Viewsonic VX2758-2KP-MHD which was a 27" 1440p 144Hz
          I definitely noticed all the little creature comforts when I upgraded to this model

    • xoom on 03/03/2023 - 14:35

      Yeah the pandemic made a mess of production. So things are starting to cost more.

    • aileron on 03/03/2023 - 17:46

      You might be thinking of the M27Q which was ~$300 in 2021 but it was just that product iirc

  • cheaper on 03/03/2023 - 14:50

    I bought this monitor about 2-3 years ago and have no issues. Plan to buy another one to set it up as dual monitors if this is possible. However, my laptop has only one HDMI port. Any idea how I can get dual monitors to work? What hardware do I need apart from two monitors and one HDMI port?

    • xoom on 03/03/2023 - 14:52

      You can get a usb c dock that has hdmi.

      Thats how i got setup at work. One monitor plugs to hdmi on laptop. The second screen on usb c hubs hdmi port.

      Bought this one but only because I needed the other ports

    • FireRunner on 03/03/2023 - 14:56

      Does your laptop have USB-C with display functionality?
      If so, you can buy a dock or displayport adapter and hook a monitor up though that.
      Otherwise, you're out of luck

  • keats1379 on 03/03/2023 - 14:52

    Thanks OP, had been waiting to get a decent 1440p monitor for a while.

    Got it down to around ~$370 with the unidays offer as well.

      Confirm it stacks with the offer, doesn't seem to be affected by promo code. Got credit 3 days after purchase. Brings the price down further to $2xx.

  • StephenCurry on 03/03/2023 - 15:45

    How does it compare to this 4K one? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/746126
    I use the monitor half for gaming and half for streaming/working.
    I know they are not in the same price range but just want to grab a few thoughts of it in real life use :)

  • earlybirds on 03/03/2023 - 15:53

    My eye are accustomed to 4k monitor for productivity work (I read a lot / university stuff).

    Do you think the difference will be huge between 4k and QHD in reading text?

    • whitcut on 03/03/2023 - 16:49
      +1

      Text seem great on it to me, but it is a gaming monitor so it will be biased towards that more.
      However if you game, your GPU will find 1440p much easier than 4k.

      Also 4k in a 27inch monitor seems a little excessive in the PPI (Pixel Density) department, so that might be why it looks sharp enough to me?
      Having said that I think the PPI for this screen is about 110,
      It looks like a 4k screen would need to be over 40inch's before its PPI drops below a 27inch 1440p.
      So depending on the size screen you are coming from you probably will be dropping PPI.

      Probably not relevant, but 4k will upscale 1080p better, but text is unlikely to be fixed 1080p content.

  • BigSim on 03/03/2023 - 15:54

    Bought mine 2 years ago, still excellent in all ways. Not looking to upgrade until GPU performance changes drastically (3070-> 5070? Or equivalent).
    Worth looking at analytic reviews for settings adjustment to colour/refresh rates etc.
    Great price for (still) one of the best monitors in 1440p 165hz IPS category.

  • RtN on 03/03/2023 - 16:22

    I grabbed one of these back in 2020 for $510 when every other day a Dell monitor deal was posted. Love it! I don't think it's a market leader in brightness or anything, but for the price you're not going to find anything close.

    • plmko on 03/03/2023 - 17:36

      It's an excellent monitor for the price to do work and game on. Can't fault it except the freezing when you have USB devices plugged in. I don't think it needs to be any brighter, I had to turn it down quite a bit as I had eye strain working on these monitors.

    I have two of these and could hardly disagree more with this constant spruiking of its untouchable price performance. They're great for two years ago and not in the conversation now. Check out Hardware Unboxed/Monitors Unboxed for an easily digestible run down of the actual competitive options.
    I wouldn't pull the trigger on these today unless they were to dip around 300 and I had a definite need in the short term as there are better available that will also go on sale at some stage.

    • NoComment on 24/03/2023 - 02:48

      I have both (2 UltraGears and one of these) and I'd prefer the Dell as it has a much nicer stand. The LG stand is comparatively flimsy and I need to push the screens down every few days as they slowly rise over time. The LG monitor has an external power brick whereas with this it's internal. In terms of picture quality, I can't really tell the difference even with them side by side.

      Nevermind I thought the base couldn't be moved cause at first I was worried of breaking it but I saw a similar thing online and some brute force seems to have loosened the swivel base now it's fine.

        • umoddbro on 24/03/2023 - 13:31
