Great monitor, amazing price

I have 2 apple cinema displays and this monitor can sit next to them and is equal in quality.  The fact that the monitor position is adjustable in every way is a big plus too.  Only downside so far is that it doesnt seem to support thunderbolt monitor chaining from my macbook, but I didn't buy it to use in that configuration.

If you just need a great hi res monitor to hook up to your retina macbook this monitor is a fantastic deal.

My wife purchased this Monitor through Best Buy as an early fathers day gift for $475 (later went on sale for $465). I would highly recommend waiting until you see the price drop, but even at the current price of $525 I think this monitor is worth it! For a 144Hz G-sync 27 inch monitor this is the best you're going to get for the money. I like the sleek design of Dell and the monitor itself is top-notch. It took a little configuring out of the box to get it where I wanted it, but other than that I have been enjoying everything from Battlegrounds to Battlefield 1 on this beauty. If you're looking for a 144Hz G-sync monitor for under $500 this is your only (and awesome) option.

Sturdy built. Beautiful display. Reasonable price. I use it for photo editing and I am very satisfied with the display quality (color, sharpness, contrast). I won't lie, it is not the best monitor out there for photo editing, but unless you want to spend above $500, even thousands for a truly professional monitor, this monitor definitely wins the budget category

Great monitor for the price. Unless you want to pay for IPS, this is a top notch monitor. I love the low-profile edges. The only drawback is the touch-button controls for power and the monitor menu are almost impossible to see in low light, and trying by feel usually ends up activating the wrong button. But as far as quality, seriously can't beat this short of an IPS monitor. Blows the TN monitors out of the water. I play games such as Skyrim, Witcher 3, ESO, and Arkham Knight on full graphics and I have no issues. Highly recommend.

There is no comparison to this monitor in the price range. Monitor itself is solid. Stand is sturdy and well made as well as giving full adjustment(monitor can be moved up and down, as well as turned vertical). The color quality is spot on with minor adjustments--and even the out of box color was pretty spot on.  I also received a monitor free of defects--dead pixels etc.  I've owned nothing but Dell Ultrasharps and when put next to my Dell U2410s, it puts them to shame in terms of quality.

Keep in mind, this is an "enthusiast" monitor.  It is a monitor that comes at 60hz but is "hacked" with an aftermarket PCB by the reseller. This means that there is some work that needs to be done on your end in order to get it to the 120hz range--96, 100,or 120hz. In order to do this you need to visit the manufacture's website/forum over at Overlordcomputer.com and follow the instructions there to reach this refresh marker(simple Google search will bring you to a few YouTube videos as well).  This is easy for anyone with any type of technical background/initiative. At this point you will notice a huge difference in pretty much any game you play.  Everything just looks and feels smoother--namely FPS and fast paced games(MOBA etc).

Take note:  At 1440p and 100hz+ refresh rate you will need to be hitting 100fps consistently to take advantage of such.  And at 27" you will need monster video cards in order to maintain this.  I will be getting 2xR290x's non-reference in order to run this monitor, but GTX780s in SLI as well as Titans are something you need in order to run this monitor at 120hz with games like Battlefield at max settings(and even then sometimes that's not enough dependent upon game).  Be aware of what you buy when investing in this monitor.  Even so, at 60hz this monitor is still gorgeous and perfectly adequate.  So, if you don't want to go breaking the bank on an SLI/X-fire config you'll do fine with a solo card at 60hz-- or lower settings at 100+ hz.

The majority of 120hz monitors right now are TN panels, and have awful color calibration which is why I steered clear of them.  This monitor eliminates that concern by providing 120hz capable and absolutely perfect color reproduction.  You will experience some glare as you will with all glossy monitors, but they do offer matte displays for those who prefer that route.  For those of you in the market in 120hz at 1440p(or even 1080p since they do have offerings in that range), you can not go wrong.  Would and will continue do business in the future.

Great monitor, Ive owned Samsung,Acer,HannsG,Qnix,Asus and this is one of the best buys Ive experienced. It does need minor calibration to bring out the colors, but everything else is amazing.

Let me say that Dell has to have one of the best stands Ive ever seen for there monitors. Definitely get this if you don't want to drop a 200 dollar premium on the rog.

Bought this for $700 = tax and shipping on Newegg a month ago, and it was worth every penny.
Here's my review there
Pros: I've been waiting patiently and checking the internet constantly for over a year for a 27" 3D Vision monitor to come out, ever since Asus teased us last year. Finally I now have the monitor of my dreams and it exceeds all of my expectations. The build quality on this monitor is fantastic. I came from the Alienware AW2310 and this monitor blows it away. The ghosting is the least I've seen, and the size is perfect. With the widescreen view on this baby the immersion level is unreal. I really like the dot pitch, there is no "tearing" of the pixels that I really disliked about the Alienware. This monitor is awesome, and I am stoked because products like this will be driving the 3D market and I love 3D.

Cons: The stand is only tilt adjustable, but you can connect a vesa stand which I did.

Other Thoughts: I use this with Two GTX470's Overclocked in SLI

First, let me say that I am extremely pleased with this monitor. At the price it was listed for, it exceeds my expectations. The monitor looked almost brand new when I opened it and the packaging was of high quality. I would have given it 5 stars if it were not for one little dead pixel, but that's alright because it was appropriately priced.

I bought this monitor to use as a second display for when I am coding, and it does its job - bottom line.

Thank you!

Possibly the best monitor at this price.  Overwatch at 144 is a sight to behold.  Coupled with my 1080ti this monitor really shines.  I've tried a Asus predator as well as a dell 2540x1440 144hz and this monitor has the strengths of both without the weaknesses of each.  1ms TN has the same of not better color than my dell ultrawide ultrasharp 34 inch curved ips.  The little remote control mouse gimmick is great for changing your settings on the fly.  The package contains extras like a dust cover.

I've been buying and looking for the best possible monitor and I think I've found it.  I've tried many in the last few months and this has the best screen and best features.  The fact that this isn't gsync or freesync shouldn't turn you off becuase it simply doesn't matter.

My monitor on the right the benq and the monitor on the left is the dell ultrawide ultrasharp.  In this photo the benq is set at 50 percent brightness

After having this a few weeks I must say that I am 100 percent satisfied.  The color and performance are amazing. The fact that it doesn't have gsync doesn't seem to Make a difference.  Btw this comes with a built in headphone holder.

This monitor is amazing. Pure & Simple. I use it flipped vertically for Outlook and love it. Can't find a monitor with these specs and this quality for this price, period. I purchased at my local best buy and had them price match Amazon.
Quit reading reviews and buy it, you won't regret it!

I did a lot of research prior to buying this monitor. I chose it for its contrast ratio and its amazing response time, as well as being 25-inch, which is the best for my use. I am a gamer and find 25-inch to be the perfect size. Anything bigger is too big for me.

The item arrived undamaged and I immediated tested for stuck pixels. I did not find a single one.

Following that, it should be noted that the monitor requires some calibration. The factory defaults are such that when the monitor arrived, the brightness, contrast, sharpness, and gamma had to be adjusted to get it to the quality I desired. Some of these features can be adjusted by the monitor and some are through the computer (ie, the video driver). There are several online tutorials that walk you through the monitor calibration process, and I highly recommend it for this monitor. My guess, the lack of proper calibration is why the price is lower than other monitors in its class. However, if you are willing to give up a little time adjusting the thing properly, this monitor will perform amazingly well!

I do not use the speakers that come with it since I already have a 5.1 system, so I cannot comment on their quality.

I have now played several games with this monitor and I could not be happier with it. It is also very nice for email, internet and the like due to its amazing clarity and sharpness. Remember to register with ASUS to qualify for their 3-yr warranty.

I ordered my monitor from acer since amazon did not have them available at the time. All I can say is wow, this monitor is amazing. I had no dead pixels, almost no noticeable light bleed "so faint you really have to stare to see it". I went from using a 720p 60hz lcd tv "I know but its what I had and it was temporary" to this. And it was like watching bigfoot riding a unicorn while being chanced by a ufo. That spectacular. Definitely worth the price. Everything looks amazing on this monitor from games, photos, videos. Well everything. Only downside is no speakers so I need to get some of those, but I knew that going in. And I would prefer they not stick crappy speakers in this beautiful monitor anyways.

At the time of this review (April 2015), I really feel this is the best monitor of this size and in this price range. There is a 34" monitor for sale but it's more costly and has a bizarre aspect ratio. This monitor from Hewlett-Packard gave me exactly what I was looking for and more. I'll share the details below. For the record, I paid $469 for this monitor... I know it fluctuates in price, usually going higher than this so keep that in mind when ordering. If it's priced high, demand is high and the price will likely come down shortly:

*** PROS ***
* MULTITASKING AT ITS FINEST: I use this monitor for school, along with a Google Pixel Chromebook. With the Chromebook and it's weird, yet very well thought out and implemented 3:2 aspect ratio, I can only have one webpage or document pulled up side by side. With this monitor, I can easily pull up two documents and if needed, even three, comfortably. I have worked on many clinical assignments with Google Docs opened in one window on the left, Wikipedia in the middle, and a random website on the right. Without clicking through tabs, I was able to quickly get work done. In my opinion, this is the best pro of the monitor.
* STYLING: This is a pro and con depending on how you look at it but I think it looks modern, sleek, and not overbearing. Is does have a bezel around the screen and the speakers permanently attached to the sides to the monitor looks bigger than the screen really is <-- this would be the pro OR con, depending on how you look at it.
* SEMI-MATTE FINISH: The screen finish is perfect! It is a matte screen, yes, but it's more of a shiny type matte finish that gives you the best of both worlds. You get good any glare protection, AND crisp, clean text and images.
* PRICING: To get another monitor even close to this one's specs, you're looking at paying over $500, so for the price, you're getting an amazing deal.
* SCREEN SIZE: This is obvious. It's a big screen--people get jealous when they see it--it's amazing. All of that good stuff. It big, but not overbearing.
* STAND: The stand is metal and snaps right into place. Not only does it look very minimalist and contemporary, it's also very functional and I feel that the monitor is safe sitting on it.
* RESOLUTION: As you can see from the specs on the product listing, the WQHD 2560x1440 resolution is clean, crisp, and the best you can get without making the jump to the new 4K monitors which cost close to $1,000 or more... Being quad-HD, it's essentially twice the resolution of a 720p monitor.
* NUMBER OF INPUT CHOICES: You've got a choice between one display port, two HDMI's, two USB's, and one headphone jack. Not amazing but it still gives you a lot of options.
* COLOR REPRODUCTION: Color reproduction is great for a monitor of this size, in this price range. Hooking a Spyder monitor calibrator up to it would allow you to control the color accuracy even more but it's really fine as it is.

*** CONS ***
* THE SPEAKERS: The speakers are a joke in my opinion. Beats Audio? Really? Well if this is any indication of Beats Audio's quality, then I'm glad I don't own any of their products because the sound is very quiet on these speakers and even if you find a way to raise it up, it still doesn't have a natural sound to it. You can hear the speakers themselves, if that makes sense.
* That is the only con I can think of, honestly. If they got rid of those dumb speakers and lowered the price by not having to pay Dr. Dre for his speakers, I think it would make this monitor even better!

*** CONCLUSION ***
I have to say, I'm happy with my purchase. Occasionally I get these types of items for free to review for the manufacturer but this one I bought myself and I have no regrets. I LOVE IT! $400+ is a lot to shell out but well worth it in my opinion. 5-star product for sure!

I bought this monitor to replace my 8 year old SAMSUNG 216BW. I wanted to get a new monitor that will hopefully last as nearly as long as the old one.
The combination of the screen size 28" vs 21" and the resolution 3840 x 2160 (aka 4K) vs 1680 x 1050 is the first real big difference right out of the box. I have this paired to an Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 through the DisplayPort. So far all the movies, games, photos, and web browsing looks amazing. I am not a super graphics critic, but everything definitely looks crisp and clean in 4K.
One unintended consequence is that I might have to buy a new mouse, my current mouse only works moderately well at the highest sensitivity. A small price to pay.
This is a lot of monitor for $290. After a month of using the monitor I have had no issues, and it has been working and looking great.

All I can say is WOW!  I was in need of a new monitor.  Prior to the purchase I had a three monitor set-up (1-24" 1080p, 2-20" 1600x900) displays.  I wanted to upgrade to the monitor world of high quality HD.  I have been looking for monitors for around 2 months and then I saw this one (was also looking at the QNIX monitors to save some cash).  I was somewhat hesitant about purchasing because I new this was a "low end" 1440p monitor.  Well after receiving it, there is NOTHING "low end" about it. Within a day and a half of my purchase I already bought a 2nd one.  The display is great (1440p/IPS) and blows my previous ones out of the water.  I have nothing negative about this monitor (backlight bleeds, dead pixels, etc.) other than that it is not VESA compatible without purchasing additional equipment (this doesn't bother me considering the stand height is perfect for my desk).  I am not able to give my opinion for gamers, because I use these for productivity and work. I would HIGHLY recommended this to anyone looking to upgrade their current monitor while on a budget!

I replaced a dual monitor setup of ViewSonic 27-inch monitors with two of these. Using HDMI and Display port cables (due to my video card on my tower) the quality of the display is unbelievable...such a great deal! LG has done well with this monitor!

Overall, extremely satisfied with this monitor since I only paid $150 for it at Best Buy. If it's on sale below $200, I'd say go for it. It's great for watching YouTube, movies, and playing games on casually or semi-competitively. Coming from a 2009 IPS display, this blows it out of the water in terms of contrast and overall picture quality. If I had room on my desk, I'd be picking up another one.

Good:
- Color reproduction is amazing. Was pretty accurate out of the box.
- Good contrast levels and a built-in dynamic contrast setting if you're into that.
- High range of brightness levels. Gets bright enough that it's actually kind of irritating to use at max in a dark room. Lowest setting is dim, but still keeps a good quality picture.
- Buttons are on the bottom right side of the monitor. Good tactile feedback and easy to find and use.
- The stand is metal, about 7 inches deep/wide, and extremely sturdy. The display shakes very little even when jiggling the corner of the screen by hand. The stand never budges a bit.
- Semi-gloss coating on the display. Nowhere near as reflective as a full gloss display and doesn't have that washed out look of a matte coating. Reflections might be somewhat of a problem in an office environment, but at home, it's a non-issue.

Neutral:
- 2 HDMI and 1 VGA are the only connectors. Would have been nice to have DVI or DP instead of VGA. No idea why companies are still including it as an option. I can't even remember the last graphics card or laptop I saw that had VGA output on it.
- The panel has a 7ms response time, so if you're an extremely competitive gamer, I'd look somewhere else.
- "Borderless" display. The same gimmick that companies have been using the past few years where there's hardly any bezel, but about a 5mm black frame around the screen on the inside. Still looks nice though.

Bad:
- Very small amount of backlight bleeding on the bottom right half of the screen in one small spot that isn't apparent unless the entire screen is black. Not really a con, just throwing it out there for reference.
- There is a bit of ghosting when doing the UFO test on Blur Busters, but none noticeable in Dota 2, Battlefield 4, Diablo 3, or Witcher 3. There is a built-in blur reduction setting which seems to work a little bit, but if turned all the way up it causes overshooting.
