Dell Gaming LED-Lit Monitor 27" Black (D2719HGF), FHD (1920 x 1080) at 144 Hz, 2 ms Response time, DP 1.2, HDMI, USB, 2W x 2 Speakers, AMD FreeSync

At first, I was worried that these monitors had some contrast/gamma issues since my jet black desktop background image appeared to be greyish, even after trying to play with settings and calibration. However, once I changed my screen refresh rate to 144 Hz, the blacks on this Dell monitor matched up to my existing Samsungs, and I am a happy camper. To do this on Windows 10: 1. Right-click on your desktop 2. Click "Display Settings" 3. Scroll down and click on "Advanced display settings" 4. Click on "Display adapter properties for Display #" for your Dell D2719HGF monitor. 5. Click on the Monitor tab, and set look for the dropdown menu "Screen refresh rate" 6. Select 144 Hz, and see if that improves your image/colors. (Optional) 7. If youre still not satisfied, try some calibration; type "Color Calibration" in your Cortana/Windows Searchbar.

Pros - 400 nits really make it bright and visible. - I liked the USB ports so i can connect my wireless mouse and keyboard to the monitor and not the laptop. - 144 Hz is really hard to fin on this monitor price range. - Up to date HDMI and display ports. Cons - The buttons sounds so loud. - The menu for settings is too basic. They could add a more friendly graphical user interface. - They could do better with the contrast ratio so it could reproduce better dark colors. VEREDICT: This is a nice monitor If you dont mind not getting the best of dark scenes and want to get good feautures at a decent price. Personally i have a Nintendo Switch which games are colorful and i like to play it with his monitor. Compared with my laptop 4k IPS display. Dark wallpapers looks better on laptop but colorful ones i prefer the monitor.

i bought these monitors about a month or so ago and they still seem pretty OK the color is not to bad when i first got them it was a little washed out but was able to kinda fixthat with color adjustment have noticed tho these monitors have so tearing and ghosting occasionally and i do not think the ones i got 144hz its more like 75hz or maybe even 60hz still a pretty good monitor for the price tho

First off this monitor arrived late. The shipping portion of this experience was terrible. Its shipped by Amazon and you cant get updates of where your package is at. They did send me a notification that it was late but you cant track it like a normal carrier. I also tried to call them but that really did not help either.. all they could tell me was that it was late and did not arrive. When I did get it in I was able to get it set up so it looks ok but nothing spectacular. I also bought a wall bracket so I could install it next to my 27" Ben Q. I went through the DP so I could try out the new free sync on NVIDIA GPUs. (10 or 20 series) This did work and it worked well in games. With the Free Sync it does have a strange bug that can cause the monitor to actually give an Out of Range Error. If you turn the monitor off and then on it works fine. I would think this is just an issue with Free Sync being a new feature for NVIDIA and it might get fixed with a future update. This only happens with the DP Cable. Problem is that HDMI is not supported for the Free Sync with NVIDIA GPUs so for the time being Im stuck with the error. My complaint is the day after I received the monitor I was looking on Amazon and the monitor went on sale. So I figured that I would just contact Amazon and get the refund for the difference. I learned they are not like a normal retailer and will not offer the the difference if a product goes on sale even if it goes on sale the day you get it. You can return the item but then you have to pay shipping which really makes it not worth it. Of course the monitor was on sale down the street at Office Max for the same discounted price. My opinion here if your reading this and plan to try this monitor out is to go to Office Max and pick it up.. if its still on sale that is and if you dont like it just return it. Make sure you check with them about their returns but Ive never had a problem with them. So all in all its a good monitor. Its not the best out there and dont expect it to be but with some tweaking you can make it passable. The 144hz is nice as well but I have to admit that my BenQ which is HDMI running at a lower hertz runs much better and has a clearer picture in gaming. Watching videos they both seem about the same.

I truly believe this is the best it gets for a semi-budget 1080p gaming monitor. The only issue I seem to be having is when i go into the display settings, it tells me that its a 60hz not 144hz Panel. I have yet to experienced any artifacting at frames above 60 or higher and am beginning to think it is just a bug of some sort on windows part. Other than that the monitor has been working great and I am very happy with my purchase.

The colors arent nearly as bad as others would have you believe. Everything is easily corrected using either Nvidia settings and/or WIn10 to whatever you want. That being said the blacks are relatively weak compared to some other monitor. Its most noticeable when watching movies and less when gaming. The 144 hz and 2 ms is great. The screen can be overly bright but you can adjust the NITs with a button push. Ive been playing Ace Combat 7 at max settings and have had no issues with blurriness, screen tearing, etc. If youre wanting an AMD Freesync monitor that will work with Nvidias 417.71 release where Gsynch will work with it then this isnt the monitor for you as this monitor isnt one of the few that is supported. Overall, this is a great upgrade for the price and worth every penny.

Great size for my old eyes and the 144hz refresh makes gaming so smooth its incredible. Note the monitor didnt come with a Display Port cable, just HDMI, so youll need one (and a good graphics adapter) to take advantage of the display. Also, it took a few to get into the advanced settings in window to set the refresh to 144hz (it doesnt set it above 60hz by default). Speakers are awful, but I didnt buy it for the audio. Overall based on the price and features i feel this is a good value.

For a monitor, its not a bad buy, especially since I personally got it on sale. I dont have one of those color calibration devices so I personally dont know how off it is but this product isnt geared towards creators but gamers instead. Id recommend getting another monitor for any sort of color grading work or such. Pros: -supposedly 144hz -VESA mounting -Audio passthrough -Has USB ports -Has speakers Cons: -Comes with an HDMI cord so you have to buy a DisplayPort cable to actually do more than 120Hz (Im waiting on mine to come in the mail to properly test it) -The USB ports are 2.0s -The speakers are terrible. Like Ive heard cheaper (~$5) speakers sound better. If I had to describe the sound, its tinny, kind of like it somehow has a bit of echo, and just is all around terrible. Use the money you saved by buying this to buy some other speakers or a headset to go with this. -Navigating the menu kind of sucks. Coming from a 75hz monitor to this I can actually see the difference and honestly, I think this is a pretty okay product. I also believe that the product should either have better speakers or none at all due to the sheer horribleness of the speakers. I also think that delivering a product with a cable that wont let you fully experience the product fully is kind of BS. Ill probably update this once I get the correct cable and try my own testing using the UFO test.
