Dell S2722QC Monitor - 27 inch 4K USB-C , UHD (3840 x 2160) Display, 60Hz Refresh Rate, 8MS Grey-to-Grey Response Time, Built-in Dual 3W Speakers, 1.07 Billion Colors - Platinum Silver

A fantastic monitor for office work. Now - this may work well for movies or for gaming, however, I have just not used for that purpose so not in position to comment on it.My Setup:I am using this over VESA mount (100mm x 100mm). My VESA mount have weight capacity of 15 lbs and this holds very well with it.Features:USB Functionalities ---USB-C port is being used to connect to my Macbook Pro. What is the good thing? It is charging as well as display. Compared to my old setup, I was able to get rid of "Dongle" to hook up HDMI and charger separate and now my table is pretty clean.Other USB ports are also connected to the "hub" - implies I can use my drawing tablet to the USB port (it is NOT USB-C) is connected with the monitor always and I can use as soon as plugin mac to the monitor. This is very good because my desk is almost clutter free now!My macbook was able to detect this monitor and setup was really breeze.Power Saving ---When Macbook is closed down or disconnected, it auto powers off. Yeah, I know this may not be big deal - but to me it was. I do not have to touch practically monitor to do anything after installation!Color Quality ---I am not pro in this department. However, I find it pretty good color compatibility with the Macbook's original screen.Night Time ---Night time feature is something I have not tinkered with. I would love to run this a bit yellowish while I work in the evening time. It is in my TODO list - especially I would want to use if I have to be with screen after 6:30 PM.Speaker ---I used headphones the most time, I have not heard anything from the speaker when headphone is not connected. I am not sure if required HDMI or works with USB-C as well.Wishlist ---I wish this computer had 2 or 3 USB ports on the left side instead of just one. Also, in terms of real estate, would be nice to distribute USBs across sides so that all cable (does not come from one side).Overall ---I am pretty pleased with this purchase. I was able to upgrade from FHD to 4K with USB-C hub - get more "real estate" as well as work seamlessly with the Macbook pro. I upgraded myself from Samsung HD2333HD to this one.I have chosen after going through many many monitors configuration and reviews. This one was in the best location in the triangle of price, features and quality. Of course - spending $200 more would get much better monitor, if I had required better sRGB % - this would not be the best.If you happen to be in the similar situation like I did - I would recommend others to give this a chance.

After playing with a friend’s new Apple Studio Display, I had to upgrade my ancient setup, but without spending $1600 dollars. I decided to give this $300 Dell a try. Frankly, I am blown away. Next to my Macbook Pro XDR display, this looks just a smooth and detailed to me with good contrast as Apple’s high-end monitor. Every app icon and the curves around typography are luscious. Images are well saturated and lively. It’s hard to believe it’s not 5K, though for some reason System Profiler does report it as a 5K monitor. It also says it’s only 300 nits of brightness but it looks as bright as my 500 nit MacBook Pro display. This is certainly better than the Samsung I have at work, which always seems washed out and bland no matter how I play with the calibration settings.The caveats are solely with everything besides the panel. The USB hub has only two ports, one of which is awkwardly on the bottom of the monitor, which would be great for a keyboard and nothing else. And you must choose between High Data Rate or High Resolution modes. At High Data Rate, I get about 145 mbps through a hard drive, but I can see some banding on gradient tests. On High Resolution, I only get 35 mbps through the hard disk, but the banding test looks perfect. The idea that I would easily plug two hard drives into here is not going to happen.There’s also an annoying light on the bottom I have to put some tape over. There’s a setting to turn it off when the monitor is on, but it’s always on when the monitor is in standby. The rest of the electronics world has stopped putting obnoxious, unnecessary LEDs on everything, and Dell needs to get with the program.Speaking of standby, the monitor shows a series of three error messages when you put the computer to sleep. This monitor needs to chill out and go with the flow. If the computer is turned off it should also go off without complaint.The stand is a tad bit wobbly and could be better.Don’t bother with the speaker—it’s terrible.The OSD menus are long and complicated. On Apple displays you just plug them in and they work without any OSD. I feel like a monitor should just display things accurately and shouldn’t need to be configured.I recommend the MonitorControl app for Mac to seamlessly change the brightness. Others recommend Lunar, but it’s far too complex.In sum, it’s not perfect but it’s surprisingly great for $300, the price of just the inferior matte coating on a Studio Display.MeasurementsΔE 0.92,Gamut coverage99.5% sRGB80.6% Adobe RGB88.6% DCI P3Gamut volume125.9% sRGB86.8% Adobe RGB89.2% DCI P3

Okay 4K monitor for the price. Passable sharpness, USB-C works great for single-cable laptop setups, and the stand is fully adjustable (tilt, swivel, pivot, height). The built-in speakers are weak, but fine for alerts or casual use. Ideal for productivity and casual use—just don’t expect high-end performance or rich audio. Decent value, minimal clutter, and a clean aesthetic. Overall, meh. I'll spring for a more expensive monitor next time. But it's cheap.

I have two Dell 27 inch monitors. This one was my second purchase. It's easy to set up. It has a sturdy build. Excellent connectivity and the additional USB ports and sound port make it a perfect addition to my desktop. Color is accurate, picture quality is bright and clear. Use both dell monitors on a Mini-PC primarily as a photo editing platform, but the 4k allows me to work with high quality video as well. I have no complaints. I would buy this again if I needed to.
