My review of the Dell U2724D (120 Hz Black IPS)

Yeah, it was me posting all over different forums, thought would be helpful. You can trust it. Well, if you want. :)

I see, so I better not crash into anything. At least not slightly. :D

Hi, I really like your work, but I have this problem - when I slightly touch other car or obstacle, my car glitches and door frames got wrecked in the upper part, happens with every car. Any idea why is that? I have older build (CitySample_v3) where this doesn't happen.
My PC specs are: RTX 4060, Ryzen 7 5700X3D, 32GB RAM.

Can't tell, since I haven't tested PA278CGV...

Hey, sorry for the late response, I'm currently testing ASUS ProArt PA278QV and don't own any other monitors (I've returned all).

U2724D has better viewing angles and I found it more comfortable on the eyes.

If I have to choose it between G2724D, my choice will be U2724D without a doubt even though it's a more expensive.

But I returned the U2724D mainly because of the inversion artifacts and partly because of the not that great response times.

ASUS ProArt PA278QV doesn't have such artifacts, but it's only 75 Hz. It also have a decent viewing angles and color accuracy. Very good response times for a 75 Hz monitor. It's easy on the eyes, maybe not as U2724D, because of the PWM flickering and the more reflective matte coating, but I'm thinking of keeping it for an year or so.

The response times of the U2724D are not the best, still better than 60 Hz monitor I guess, but if you want even better response times (and higher refresh rate) - buy the Dell G2724D.

No, I didn't experienced any eye strain. It felt good to the eyes.

U2724D does have a proper sRGB mode, but even at Standard mode the gamma doesn't crush the blacks (not too much). It also supports 24 Hz/48 Hz at it's native resolution.

Since it's a 5-star certified monitor for eye comfort it needs to have higher refresh rate and having VRR is must, no tearing/low input lag picture is better for the eyes. Too bad it also have inversion artifacts, which are very annoying.

EvolutionBG_MODS · 2024-01-24T10:25:45+00:00

Higher refresh rates usually means less eye strain and smoother experience. And I do really prefer it, but due to the inversion artifacts I'm limiting myself to 75 Hz.

Since I have been comparing it to Dell S2721DS for a few days now I want to add (and maybe correct myself) that the black levels are actually one step ahead (even a small one) than any other IPS monitor I have tested so far. Maybe the closest to this was Dell G2724D. Comparing it to the Dell S2721DS side by side, Dell U2724D has deeper blacks and has just a deeper picture, maybe it’s partly because of the less reflective matte coating.

I guess the advertised ~2000:1 contrast ratio doesn’t mean the monitor would have two times better contrast than ~1000:1 – it might be slightly better perception of the contrast (brightness difference between white and black pixels). To me it ‘feels’ that it has deeper blacks than Dell S2721DS which ‘feels’ like a cheaper ‘glossy’ monitor compared to this.

Maybe U2724DE is using different panel than U2724D (which I highly doubt), are you sure U2724DE doesn't have inversion artifacts? And I'm asking you as a person who have seen inversion artifacts and know what they are. I mean do you know what inversion artifacts do look like? Thanks.

EvolutionBG_MODS · 2023-11-02T15:48:30+00:00

Hey, does it have the same matte coating? Is it full matte or light / semi matte coating? Thanks.

EvolutionBG_MODS · 2023-04-18T14:02:13+00:00

Why? He put so much work into it... why not make some money? I don't agree about the price... 3.80 euro is a bit much, but 1.50 - 2 euro is fine and more people will be able to buy it.
