Dell Outlet seems to have dropped the price on some monitors recently and these 2 QD-OLED models seem to be a pretty good deal. Next gen QD-OLED monitors might be coming soon though so that's something to consider.

Standard fine print about text fringing, burn in, etc. but at ~$1K for the DWF I decided to take a gamble (my alternative was going to be the 42" LG OLEDs, but ultrawide suits me better since my primary use case is gaming)

    The 3 year warranty would cover burn in right?

      Should be the case, refurbs from Dell outlet normally get the same warranty as their brand new units.

      Although to be pedantic, the wording of the warranty is different on the item page: 3Y Basic Advanced Exchange Service vs 3-Year Advanced Exchange Service and Premium Panel Exchange (Including coverage for OLED burn in)

        You aren't being pedantic at all. Thanks for reading carefully and sharing to us.

      • Grazz989 on 26/05/2023 - 11:59

        'Basic advanced' … Bit of an oxymoron, no?

  • Stingy Student on 25/05/2023 - 19:29

    What is the difference between the two models?

    • Magicmannn on 25/05/2023 - 19:31

      something about upgradable firmware, the one without F cannot

    • Skhtor on 25/05/2023 - 19:36

      DW has the G-sync module, runs a little hotter, 5hz faster,

      The DWF has Freesync, upgradable firmware.

      Probably can't go too wrong with either option

      • Deterrence on 25/05/2023 - 19:40

        There's an LTT video about it. Why being an early adopter sucks

      • AustriaBargain on 25/05/2023 - 22:20

        Is gsync and free sync interchangeable between AMD and Nvidia? Not that I can afford this monitor anyway :(

        • Grazz989 on 26/05/2023 - 12:01

          NVIDIA can use freesync, amd can't use gsync. Gsync is usually considered a bit better.

    I picked up a refurb for 1300 a few months back. Apart from the screen being a bit dirty it looked new.
    I'd definitely bite at this price, just be aware that if you use these for productivity the pixel layout is not great (I think the picture quality for office work is inferior to my U3415W right next to it).

  • Deterrence on 25/05/2023 - 19:45

    Thanks! Got one on the way. I guess now I'll have to upgrade my 6600 xt…

    Will wait for under <$1k deal

  • ttt888 on 25/05/2023 - 20:05

    I suspect these are returns from those who got it for 300.00
    😂

    • D1Vad on 25/05/2023 - 20:12

      300?

        It was a different monitor (AW3821DW). Dell had a price error at one point and listed it for ~$250, most people's orders got cancelled but some people managed to convince unaware staff in online chat to "expedite" their order in one way or another and received it. So not really a legit deal per se, but gets brought up a lot as a bit of an in-joke

        • D1Vad on 25/05/2023 - 20:24

          wow crazy deal indeed.

          That's a slur on the legend of Mujeeb.

            @OzBerghainer: The AW3821DW is the perfect balance for productivity and gaming, however I do wish it had decent HDR.

          Wait so some pol actually got it? I thought all got cancelled

          • DeToxin on 26/05/2023 - 10:14

            @nightelves: I didn't get it through that deal but apparently a couple of people did.

  • tc423 on 25/05/2023 - 20:44

    Note - this monitor gets hot and you can feel the radiance. also the fan noise is very noticeable.

    • RSmith on 25/05/2023 - 20:52

      this monitor gets hot

      Perfect for winter.

    • sim36 on 26/05/2023 - 11:02

      "Radiance" = radiation - that shit burns!

  • JeremyDealFiend on 25/05/2023 - 21:42

    Anyone manage to get a DWF? How quick did they sell out?

  • pq8382 on 25/05/2023 - 22:02

    LOL, I would not recommend buying the refurbished unit of this model, as many people return it due to faulty firmware. If you buy one that has firmware lower than MB104, then good luck dealing with random soft deaths when the monitor turns into sleep mode.

    • itscyanide on 26/05/2023 - 06:38

      Any more info on the soft deaths you're referring to? Got one at release and so far so good (I think) but would be good to know what to look out for.

      • pq8382 on 26/05/2023 - 09:23

        if you let your monitor go sleep mode after using is for a while using windows10/11. The monitor will stuck at maintenance mode forever and you have to unplug to powersupply to fix the issue.

    Does it have USB-C hub?

    • Gething on 26/05/2023 - 08:25

      No the MSI version does though

  • Sinnerator on 26/05/2023 - 08:00

    Why not get the Dell 32" 4k @ 144hz deal for $750ish and put the extra $500 towards a better GPU?
    serious question as I am not clued in on monitors

    • Gething on 26/05/2023 - 08:25

      This one has an OLED panel which are known for great blacks and quick response times. Currently there aren't any 'reasonable' sized OLED monitors for sale they are either this ultrawide panel or a 27 inch 1440p LG panel.

    • skittlebrau on 26/05/2023 - 10:48

      Different panel technology. OLEDs have near-zero response times, 'infinite' contrast, superior HDR capability and wide colour gamut.

  • Gething on 26/05/2023 - 09:32

    Cheers, finally pulled the trigger and grabbed one

    waiting for AW3423DWF to come back into stock, at that price I'm keen.

    • Solrak on 26/05/2023 - 11:49

        @micsway @Solrak Back in stock now at $1089, unfortunately the additional 10% sale (that brought the DW down to $1169) has ended though.

    Now showing $1,169?

    • JC1186 on 27/05/2023 - 10:06

      Wtf I just put an order through at $1,299.

      Dell will refund me the difference yeah? Literally ordered hours ago.

      • Gething on 27/05/2023 - 13:17

        Same here, I am going to try and contact support

      • Gething on 30/05/2023 - 08:31

        Dell cancelled my order for the original $1300 and I was able to order at the new price.

  • Gething on 30/05/2023 - 08:30

    Anyone who payed the original $1300 before it went on sale, I went to the Dell chat box yesterday afternoon. They cancelled the order for $1300 so I could order at the lower $1169 price.
