Product Snapshot

Overview

The Dell 27 Ultrathin Monitor (S2719DM) is a top-tier 2018 release that pledges to deliver accurate visuals thanks to its high color accuracy and impressive HDR peak brightness level that averages around 600 nits. The 27-inch display boasts ultra-thin, all-around 0.35-inch bezels that yield a simple yet elegant design, and with a wide color gamut, users will likely appreciate how vivid the images on display seem. This great Dell monitor also features a super-fast 5ms response time to keep motion blur at bay, and with a high 2560 x 1440 resolution, text clarity is high, with little to no distortion. Weighing only 8.6 pounds, the S2719DM is more portable than the 14-pound Dell S2721QS, so users should have a straightforward time moving it around. Make sure to get to the end of this Dell 27 Ultrathin Monitor (S2719DM) to see how it compares to the best-rated computer monitors in the market.

Consensus

our Verdict

The Dell 27 Ultrathin Monitor (S2719DM) has a sleek design and a peak brightness level of 600 nits, making it great for professional use. However, its stand doesn’t offer any height, pivot, or tilt adjustment, so it’s not the most ergonomic. Weighing 8.6 pounds, it’s easy to move around, but its 75Hz refresh rate won’t be enough for competitive gamers.

ReasonS to Buy

  • Wide color gamut
  • Good viewing angles
  • Swift 5ms response time
  • Lightweight and portable

Reason to Avoid

  • The stand has poor ergonomics
  • Limited input options
  • Difficult to use buttons
  • Limited port selection
