It's a good price for this 4K monitor, and it's suitable for office work.
I already have a Sony OLED TV, so I don't need to consider the LG 42" C4 or the Samsung 32" QD-OLED monitors.

Please read the 'macOS Compatibility' section of this review.
I use mine for work powered by my MacBook Pro M1.
No issues except for having to use DisplayPort for 144hz
Sorry - not powered by my MacBook Pro just connected to it.
Crucial information right there.
@theguyrules: @theguyrules haha I was being sarcastic. But I also do the same thing but through a Dell dock that has displaylink drivers because I'm using an M1 Air.
Yeah I have this exact monitor and use it with a M2 pro Mac Mini and my windows gaming PC.
Great for both, just change the scale/resolution to the middle option on the Mac Mini, System Settings > Displays >3008x1692.
The 3840x2160 makes everything appear to small to be usable.
I find the Mac “resolution” control confusing because it’s scaling, not resolution. It’s like the scaling slider in GNOME (Linux). When I plug my MBP into my 4K monitor, yeah I can’t have it at max because the text is too small, but down lower, it’s still driving the monitor at 4K, it looks like it just scales the text and UI widgets larger. I’ve also found both my monitors (Asus VG28UQ and Samsung UR55) don’t look as good as the MBP screen, with HDR on or off. In fact HDR makes image colours and things look weird.
Are you a getting HiDPI resolution?
I remember
For real?
I saw the deal post at the end of last month where someone praised this monitor's performance for office work, and it also received very high office ratings(8.3 Office, 9.0 Text Clarity) on RTINGS.
its the alienware curve monitor
I already have one at home for gaming + WFH and I'm buying another one work. It's one crispy boi for both tasks.
They're talking about the other monitor listed in that deal. The AW3423DWF.
No it's prefect for gaming and office. IPS panel. You might be thinking of another monitor.
subpixel layout? that is for oled screens… this is an IPS monitor
I mean it is a gaming monitor…
They were talking about the OLED from the same deal.
I have two of these as my wfh setup. Zero complaints (aside from not having a USB-C hub integrated).
I use this for work everyday. Amazing monitor for work.
my bad, how does this compare to the LG 32" on stand?
I’ve had a dual setup of these for about a year, purely for work and they are fantastic.
you reckon better with like 2x 32? or 1x43 for work ?
I much prefer dual screens for office work than a single ultra wide. I’m eventually more used to it after over a year, but there are still occasions when I wish I’d bought two or three of these instead of an OLED ultra wide. It is great for gaming, mind you.
Unless you need the real estate, 1 monitor setup is probably better. It can get a little hard to manage 2x32 and I’ve even been thinking of downgrading to one nice big OLED
correct
I use it completely for office work, no gaming. It's fantastic.
Only downside with this monitor is the noticeable motion blur
Curious about the downvote, are others not experiencing motion blur?
I believe rtings when they say it has motion blur - my mate has one
Has not been an issue for me personally. I play Switch and PS5 on it, never noticed it enough to be bothered.
Ordered this exact screen from Dell on the 13/09, shipping has been delayed till the 27/9 if anyone cares.
Yes same here, annoying.
Ordered mine on the 3/9 with an estimateddeliveryfor the 25/9, got delayed to the 4th of Oct now.
Just got the email, my order placed on 21/09 is shipped today.
ordered mine on 02/09, was supposed to be delivered by 18/09 and now it has been delayed till 27/09 where it is still in production :/
I honestly don't think this order will be delivered by 27/09
Ordered mine on 31/08, sent an enquiry as the delivery date was almost up and still in production.
They responded earlier saying theres supply constraints.
Ordered on21/09, shipped today, startack to Sydney.
Just got a noti as well, shipped today ETA 26/09
@harukane: Cant believe my order has taken almost a month hahah
Says 'onboard for delivery' so im hoping for the best that it comes today.
@harukane did you get yours yet?
@sabbyy: just got mine like 3 hours ago and now I am commenting with it
This is my very first experience with 4K monitors and I am loving it so far XD
Soon OLED 27" $600. Soon. Have…..to…….hodl………
Happy with this monitor I got off last post
OOS for that one
Ah bummer - worth the savings.
Ordered in 30Aug received 3rd Sept.
I've had this monitor since June 2023, still going strong
This code also works on the Dell 27" 165hz G2724D. Brought the price down to $358.37 with free delivery. I'd post that as another deal but I'm short of time this morning.
This price is so good few years ago got VA model of this costed $700 I'm still using it today
Not even 144hz just 60
Nice monitor. 🙂
Does anyone know if it can be attached to a monitor arm? i.e. does it have the screw holes in the back or just clip in stand?
Yes it has vesa mount
Thank you.
Love this monitor. Great all rounder for gaming and work.
Need another Muzeeb deal from Dell soon.
Be aware I've been waiting close to a month for mine. Keeps getting delayed. Not sure why they keep putting it on special when they can't manufacture them quick enough.
Hmm that's strange. I placed an order last night on the 23rd, checked Dell's website just then and status shows Shipped with StartTrack tracking number available.
Just got a text right now to day its been shipped. How's that for timing lol
Can also confirm mine has shipped (ordered last night). Hopefully yours has shipped today too.
Thanks for letting me know. It's meant to be delivered on the 28th but it's been delayed twice. Fingers crossed it arrives on the date this time
Just got a text right now saying it's been shipped. 😊
Same
Must have been same shipment as mine! I got mine… and it's got a vertical purple line down the middle… more waiting for a replacement me things.
For anyone who is planning to use this with a Mac but want more control over the resolution / scaling side of things: BetterDisplay for macOS.

Thanks OP, ordered 1. Estimated shipping date 30 sep
I paid $800 for this monitor about 1 year ago and it was worth it , very high quality IPS monitor
TVs are cheaper than monitors always. But, with monitor, you get options which are 1)higher refresh rate than TV 2)lower ms response than TV 3)more ergonomic ratio than TV 4)higher ppi options available than TV. Fellow OZb's, do correct me if my assertions are incorrect. Thanks
sounds about right mate
No usbc power delivery?
Can you apply the code and cashrewards at the same time? Think you should also be able to get $73.4 cashrewards.
forget about it, monitor only gets 1.5% cashrewards
I got an sms, updated shipping date to tomorrow 26 sep
Can this be used in Vertical mode?
To use it in vertical mode, you might need a monitor arm.
how's the colour accuracy on this thing?
Yea I saw that one but found many other mixed reviews around it as well..
Dell CS is such a joke, just received my monitor got a panel issue (vertical line) they wanted to replace with a refurbished model…
Looks like price has gone up…now $556
Is it still a good deal ?
Dell Outlet has them for $499 delivered with a 3 year warranty.
Bugger, I went to buy this but the price has gone up…
Dell Outlet has them for $499 delivered with a 3 year warranty.
Dell has succumbed to using surge pricing now too 🥲🥲
Price jacked to $619.30.
That's a bit poor. Looks like I'm waiting to see what Black Friday may bring.
Nobody is likely watching this thread now but if they are, the Dell Outlet has this monitor available for $499 delivered with a 3 year warranty.
I tried to post that earlier but it got binned by the Mods and sent to purgatory in the Not Enough Info thread somewhere in the bowels of the #2 chute.
What do you mean by Dell outlet? Like Dell store? Are there any in VIC?
Google Dell Outlet. It's there outlet store, online only and they have refurbished Dell kit on there.
Comes with warranty and is reduced price.
good for mac mini?
