The Dell S2722DGM offers good performance for both casual and competitive gaming on a budget, with its higher refresh rate enhancing smooth gameplay and included variable refresh rate technology reducing screen tearing. However, for productivity and media consumption, it is only fair. Although its VA panel provides deep blacks and a high static contrast, it's not suitable for HDR gaming or editing due to the lack of HDR peak brightness. The monitor's color accuracy is decent for digital photo editing, yet professionals in print photo editing might want to consider other options for higher AdobeRGB coverage. With a 1440p resolution and a 27-inch screen, it offers sharp images for its size and a good text quality, making it versatile for everyday tasks. The stand allows for adjustment, improving ergonomics. Gamers on a tight budget who still want a good-sized high-resolution display will find it a compelling option, but those prioritizing HDR content or needing professional color space coverage should look elsewhere.
