i bought this used for a huge discount off the original price and was pleasantly surprised when it came basically looking absolutely brand new and none of the defects that were listed on amazon were present. before this i tried a bunch of monitors and found that all of them have their pros and cons, and this monitor hits the sweet spot of the pros outweighing the cons. i tried the 27GN950 (4K 144HZ) and loved how sharp the monitor was with text and gaming, but what made the monitor so good (4k resolution) also ended up being its biggest downfall, since modern GPU technology just isnt capable of playing most games at a smooth refresh rate at 4K. and refresh rate ties into input lag, so a low refresh rate means high input lag which means a not so pleasant PC gaming experience i tried the LG CX48 which had the best picture quality ive ever seen (OLED, infinite contrast), but as a monitor it was impractical i tried the 240HZ 1080P XL2546 and realized 1080p has no place in 2021 all monitors suffer from poor picture quality in regards to content consumption because of contrast ratio in LCD technology, so if you're looking for a monitor for productivity, gaming and shows/movies you will be disappointed no matter how much money you spend in regards to the 3rd. get a TV + a monitor if you care about picture quality for shows/movies. i remember watching wandavision on my 27GN950 in HDR and couldnt believe it, it looked like someone was shining a flashlight on my screen, you could barely see anything. cheap black friday TV's have better pictures than that. so the AW2721D really shines out of all these options for monitors because a. 1440p is sharp enough to not impact performance in modern games, and modern GPU's are more than capable of playing games at 1440p at 144FPS especially with DLSS b. g-sync ultimate. 99% of monitors have software level g-sync, which just removes tearing at the cost of a slight hit to input lag. this monitor however has a hardware level g-sync module *built in*, which means you get the smoothest possible picture with 0 inconsistencies in frametimes + no screen tearing, and you actually get input lag so incredibly low you'd find it difficult going back to anything without it. c. this is kind of irrelevant to the monitor itself but dell has a whopping 3 year warranty on their monitors, so you know you're safe if anything ever happens to it. also the packaging is really nice compared to most monitors. the design and aesthetics are minimal and clean. ultimately, this monitor should be the endgame for a lot of people unless you have a preference for ultrawides. now it is expensive, and i think its overpriced but that's not a fault of the monitor but a fault of monitor technology still being years behind TV's. i think for 800+$ you should be able to have a good content consumption experience when it comes to TV shows/movies, which is why i wanted to save as much money as possible and bought a used version. anyone who complains about IPS glow/backlight bleed needs to realize these aren't meant for content consumption, and for the large majority of your usage with a monitor those things aren't noticable unless you spend most of your time staring at a black screen. for what this thing is intended for, like most monitors, which is the smoothest most responsive gaming experience, and a sharp productivity experience, it is the best on the market.

Of course it goes on sale a week after I purchase it! ugh. This is a short term review, as I've only had it for a week. Pretty much echoing what other people have said, the colors and brightness are fantastic compared to my other gaming monitors (I own a 240hz zowie, 240hz alienware, 144hz zowie, and a 1440p 165hz 27" asus), and for that reason I love it. I was afraid it'd ruin my other gaming monitors for me, and it definitely did, it'd be hard to go back to every day use of my other 1080p high refresh rate gaming oriented monitors after this bad boy. Aesthetically it's got a clean, gamer style look to it, I don't hate it, but this is subjective of course. I also never look at the back of my monitor anyway, plus I use desk mounts for them so I don't use the standard, out of the box stands. Oh it's also pretty heavy compared to other monitors I own. I have it on a standard vizio extra tall pole style monitor mount, but it seems to be ok so far. The OSD is fine, pretty much the same as my Alienware AH2518H, but a couple more things, and the joystick style controls it's a hell of a lot easier to navigate. It's 240hz which is nice, it's hard for me to use anything less than 240hz now, as I was a OG gamer that started out on CRTs back in the day, I'm sensitive to motion blur and lower refresh rate lcds. 1440p 240hz is going to be the new sweet spot for gaming monitors IMHO, with GPUs getting more powerful (if you can even find one to purchase at MSRP lel). The motion blur on this monitor in faster paced fps/Afps games isn't too bad, but I would have liked to have some sort of strobing/blur reduction option like the G7. The only downside to this monitor is the price IMHO, if it was constantly around the 700 mark (it's on sale as of 3/4/21 for 769) with price drops to 6-500 I think it'd be worth it for sure, but at full MSRP or even at the 800 mark it's up there in price for a gaming monitor. If you have the money, and want a 27" 1440p, 240hz monitor with great colors and brightness out of the box, this might be the one for you. I love it, and if it was cheaper I'd probably buy a second one. If you want a good monitor that's 1440p 240hz, but with lower motion blur, and don't mind the dumb curve it has (that's the deal breaker for me on that monitor) check out the Samsung odyssey G7. I might update this review at a later date if anything changes on it.

Coming from a 1080p 240 hz aw2521hf. This monitor AW2721D is much more fun to look at. The 1440p really is the perfect fit for this sized screen. The fast ips has more depth and a bit richer than the tn display but comes off a bit cooler (bluer) at the same time. Once you get used to the cooler colour you'll really like it. I've had a few hiccups were the screen will go black when fiddling with settings sometimes but only like 4 times in the first 5 weeks i've had it. The brightness is a bit insane, this baby can get bright af. Especially when you turn on HDR. The one thing that is a bit unsettling is that when HDR is on and you are playing a dark game, all the bright lights tend to cause some pretty extreme (in my opinion) ips glow. You'll see when you have a torch for example in a game and you're traversing a dark area. The bottom of the monitor will really light up. You can mitigate this effect by using variable backlight options in the settings or adjusting the brightness in nvidia control panel. But this is something i've gotten used to and its not very bothersome. The HDR during well lit games is amazing though. The only other minor complaint I have is that the panel I got has 2 very minorly effected pixels that are ~10-15% dimmer than the other pixels, they are not dead pixels but seemed to be maybe underpowered? Its impossible to see on photos but they're there. They are imperceivably unless you have a monocolor bright background and look real close for them. This may be rng also. Overall i would rate this monitor 94/100

UPDATE (1/222021): My new unit has no dead pixels, barely any IPS glow. Absolutely in love. It's perfect. The monitor is incredible and, if it hadn't been for the two stuck/dead pixels (stuck at green), then this would have been easily 5 stars. Pros: - It's incredibly crisp and smooth, with a clarity almost indistinguishable from 4K - Playing anything on it is butter, assuming you have a PC that can push 240 frames at 1440p; I would choose this over 1080p/360Hz any day of the week. - The physical design of this monitor is stunning; thinnest bezels and chin I have ever seen on any monitor. The bottom chin is so thin that it doesn't even have any branding or logo. If you mount this on a monitor arm, you'd have to look behind the monitor in order to figure out what brand it is. I love it. - Gets bright as hell for a monitor. - IPS glow is not bad, but I don't typically operate on all-black screens. - All the I/O you could ever want; bunch of USB passthrough and audio passthrough. Cons: - If you're not using a mount, the stand on this thing (though stylish) will take up a lot of desk space AND push the monitor closer to your face than you would probably want. - No built-in speakers...if you care about that sort of thing. There's a reason why the chin is so thin. If you can afford to buy this monitor, then you can afford to spend $15 on some USB speakers. - It came with one dead pixel. - It came with another dead pixel. - An $1100 monitor came with two stuck/dead pixels. Review will be updated if the replacement is acceptable.

It is a sad day when you have to notch one star off a review of one of the best gaming monitors I've ever owned because it forces you to install something that has nothing to do with image quality. What could have been a perfect, 5 star review turned into just a good one just because of the monstrosity the infamous ACC -Alienware Control Center- is On the good side, or better said on the wonderful side, the image on this monitor is really impressive, everything looks sharp, in beautiful real colors. Games look way better that the way they looked on my old Dell monitor, which was not HDR even if it was G-SYNC. Response time is also impressive, when paired with my Nvidia RTX 3080 it is just a complete different experience, for the better. I'm connected via DP, not sure how it will look via HDMI but I wouldn't expect something different Craftsmanship is also incredible, well built, solid good quality with a very 2001 Space Odyssey futuristic look. Dell really put an effort into this monitor, and it shows. Couldn't be happier with image and quality, and even if the price is a bit high, I think it's more than justified for the superior product you get Assembly and installation is a walk in the park. It took me less than 15 minutes to take it out of the box, attach it to the base and connect it to my Falcon NW PC. The back joystick menu feature for the options takes a bit of an effort to manage but after a few tries it becomes very intuitive and easy to use. I turned off all the lights so I cannot comment on the way they can be customized, but for the brief time they were on they looked great. Sadly, this is where things took a turn for the worst After playing for a few hours and testing the image on different settings and games, I turned off my PC for the day. Next day, after starting, the Audio for my PC was gone. Restarted the PC again and nothing. Tried all sort of stuff, nothing. A quick check to the W11 reliability monitor showed the ACC kept crashing at restarting, so I uninstalled the ACC and nothing. Really painful. After a few hours trying everything, I decided to disconnect all the audio sources form the PC, remove the Realtek and W11 audio drivers and basically reinstall everything audio related. After that it worked, but it is clear the ACC was to blame and messed up with the audio drivers The ACC should be optional, for those wanting to control the monitor lights or to manage their games under an Alienware environment, not forced into every PC as soon as you connect the monitor to a USB port, no asking for permission, no option to decline installation. I have owned several Dell monitors in the past and this have never happened before. Maybe is an Alienware thing but not a good one

So I wanted to wait at least a month before posting my review of this monitor. My current setup is as follows: CPU: Intel Core i9 10900K/360MM EK AiO Mobo: Asrock Z490 Taichi GPU: EVGA 3090 Ultra FTW Gaming RAM: 32G 3200MHZ Samsung B-Die 4x8 PSU: BeQuiet! 1200w Platinum Modular Case: Phantek Enthoo Pro II Primarily Play Warzone, DayZ, Dying Light, World Of Warcraft, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 4, etc. Simply put, this monitor is by Far, my absolute Most Favorite monitor I have Ever Owned. The picture quality is Stunningly crisp, Warzone @2k Res, at 240hz, with the best Nvidia Filters tweaked. Looks and Runs Flawlessly with No stutters/tears/visual defects At All. In such a fast paced game, that’s Critical to be able to whip around and suffer No visual blur, No Lag, instant response. I was gaming on An Alienware AW3418DW, 120hz Max refresh and 5ms. It was great, but this 27” 240hz 1ms, Crushes my old monitor hands down. To my surprise, Extremely Minimal backlight bleed, No dead pixels, very well packaged. If you’re an avid FPS/BR fan, wait until this monitor goes on sale and try it. I promise you won’t be disappointed with your purchase. Solid build quality, Nothing feels cheap, looks Great, incredibly easy to VESA Mount, the fan that cools the Nvidia Ultimate Chips whisper quiet. Side note, always make sure to turn your monitor off (Not Sleep Mode) or the fan for the monitor continues to spin.

Great monitor, I got this one after returning a Samsung Odyssey G7 I previously purchased in exchange for the alienware AW2721D as it has a Gsync Module installed. It has several Refresh Rates Avaliable and with the higher end Gsync Ultimate Module it can technically support any framerate between 30-240FPs if you use a Framerate Limiter like RivaTuner. The HDR isn't all that great though and seems to just be a dynamic backlight gimmick, but I didn't buy it for HDR and most competitive gamers wouldnt care for it either. It also supports full 12 bit color all the way up to 144HZ, but make sure you install it's driver and set up Dell's screen calibration profile in windows to fully experience the full color support. Like others in the reviews I do notice some Backlight bleed in the bottom left and right corners but as of 2 weeks of using it and it going through many tempature cycles the backlight bleed seems to be going away like its supposed to as the pannel adhesive in those corners starts to relax tension on it, but as of today its only noticeable when the screen is displaying darker scenes like loading screens and boot.

I received three AW2721D monitors brand new and all of them have severe QC issues out of the box: Monitor 1: Extreme IPS glow and backlight bleed on the corners of the display that was visible even in bright rooms. I’ve never owned a monitor with this much glow and bleed in my life. Monitor 2: Entire bottom right corner of the display had an orange hue, like the display was damaged or burnt during assembly Monitor 3 (from Dell direct): Dead pixel on the bottom right and similar orange hue/damage on the bottom left corner. Monitor 1 and 3 were manufactured in June 2021. Monitor 2 was manufactured in May 2021. Still horrible QC even though this monitor has been on market for nearly a year. It’s a shame because the monitor is quite good if these insane defects didn’t pass QC. Avoid this monitor!
