Monitor started to flicker at 120hz after one month of use. Very disappointing for such an expensive monitor. This seems to happen to lots of owners judging by reviews Ive seen online. Hopefully I will be able to get a refund, otherwise this was a terrible purchase.
Had ordered this due to the amazing reviews and after having gone through 2 of these, there appears to be a common problem, please beware of the following issues. As with all IPS panels your blacklight bleeds will vary. Both panels that amazon shipped to me had moderate blacklight bleed which I would accept HOWEVER BOTH monitors had 2 very noticable dead pixels, in fact both of them had one directly in the middle of the screen where your crosshairs would be if you were playing a first person shooter. If anyone at Dell did QA and looked at this monitor for half a second they would have sent it back to the assembly line. Either this is a recent issue or most of the reviews on this site dont care about paying top dollar for a premium product that has poor quality. Sending both back to amazon, doubt I will even go for a third at this point.
I had a long happy history with Dell products, so when this came on sale, I thought I would go with it. I am a research junkie and read everything about anything I am going to purchase. I do read 1 and 2 star ratings first. The light bleed issue on the left side is real and noticeable. I am not a teen gamer, but a disabled senior citizen, so here is the deal. This thing comes in the largest box I have ever had left at my door. The box inside with the monitor is HUGE. It weighs a ton, I am professor and just figuring out how to get it out of the box is a task. I am a dead pixel freak, so that is what I look for, more than lightbleed. I quickly turned it on ready to repack if there were any. Then I go to put it together. The reviews say it, there is a wing shaped cover for the back of the monitor to hide the input/outputs. It is a cheap $1.00 piece of plastic, that weighs 3 oz. It is the kind of thing that aggravates me. I hate poorly designed things. The warnings were to be gentle. Out of the box they looked a bit damaged. I tried to put it on and many of them immediately broke off. Even tho I hate the lightbleed, I am too old, weak, and tired LOL to repack over that, but Dell basically told me to shove it, they have no way, no interest, of being any assistance in just putting one in an envelope and paying a dollar shipping to satisfy a long time customer. Who is just crazy enough to return and stick them with a now refurbished monitor to sell, over a $2 piece of plastic. Logic, customer service, phone assistance from native English speakers, all remnants of the past.
I had great expectations for this monitor. Ive owned it for about 30 days. For the last two weeks, Ive had it overclocked at 120Hz. Unfortunately, like other reviewers have stated, the monitor has started flickering about every 5-10 seconds. Its very annoying and I had to set it back to 100Hz. Im going to return it while I can still get a refund, so Im bummed.
