  • Are there better options to the S3422DW?
    For office and some gaming.

    Something like this would be good but not sold much in Australia, Gigabyte M34WQ

    • See my post below. Subjective obviously, but I’d seriously try and take a look at a VA in store to see if you like it. I thought they were terrible for my use case (100% work)

    • I can't imagine any situation where I want a work monitor that isn't 4k.

    Not sure if worth getting refurb for 459.

  • These are cracking options, Dell warranty shouldn't be overlooked. I picked up a used one recently, still under warranty. I have the S3422DWG model. I don't use it for gaming, just for office work and it's a hell of a lot nicer to work on than the two 23" FHD screens I was using before. It is missing USB C power, which wasn't a dealbreaker for me as I already had a docking station from running the two monitors previously. I've not played around with the USB options that it does have. I find the stand to offer good height and tile options, but it does not twist at all. I don't have much to compare it against but I've got no regrets about buying one.

  • Thanks OP, been waiting for the S3423DWC… Disappointed that I missed the last refurb S3423DWC deal, but glad I did as I saved $40 😃

    These are VA panels. I was looking to replace my u3415w with something more modern and thought I’d give va a try (got the s3423dwc model)

    They’re probably alright for most people but I thought the viewing angles were bad and was a step down from my 10 year old ips panel. It looked very washed out. Gaming was also also pretty bad with it looking very smeary.

    For the record, I tried the g3223q (excellent, but was too high for me and gave me a sore neck) and the s2723q (dual - very good as well but 2 27s were too wide). I game on a 32 oled and also have owned the 34 dwf so think I’ve got some decent experience with what looks good.

    Ended up with a u3425we, which is overpriced af but for office work I think is one of the better units out there. Spending over a grand for a slightly better version of my u3415 irks me a bit, but whatever.

    YMMV, but I’d avoid VA personally

    These come up a bit because dell have a great returns policy and… well, lots of people return them :p

    Sadly if you want a productivity monitor you’re going to have to pay for it or slum it with these VAs. Although the 60hz lg/dell ips panels go for about 5-600 so they might be worth a look, but will probably be shitty for gaming if you’re after dual use

      Same experience going from the u3415w to the s3422dwg, although the 144hz and freesync are nice, smearing issues due to VA panel were terrible.

    • FWIW, there is a huge, huge market of people who use this exclusively for typical "office" applications - web browsing, emails, Excel, PowerPoint, Word, programming…etc. where these are perfectly fine for the price.

      As a perfect example, where I work literally has over 200 of this exact Dell monitor, and I'm sure this is also the case for a large number of corporate offices.

      • Yep - they’re fine for most people who have no choice in the matter, where the cheapest unit is going to win out over other features (if the procurement/IT people even bothered to look/care)

        For those that do have the choice, I’d say spending slightly more for IPS is worth it, particularly for excel, word etc

  • Pleased to score a S3222DGM for $419
    Thanks!

    • Seems there was only one, OOS now.
