The Dell S2722QC is a 4k monitor aimed at productivity. It's an updated version of the Dell S2721QS with a different selection of inputs, as it has a USB-C input that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode with power delivery. This means that you can connect your laptop to display an image and charge it at once. It has a few extra features for productivity like Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture modes, so you can connect two devices at once and view them both on screen. The 4k resolution helps deliver clear images with sharp text clarity. However, it's not the most versatile for gaming either as it's limited to a 60Hz refresh rate and HDMI 2.0 bandwidth, but it still has FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support and a quick response time for smooth motion.

After going to 144hz (and then 120hz because it seems the 1.4 spec can cause some issues with bandwidth at 144hz on 4k), I won't ever go back to 60hz willingly. It just feels so smooth to use. My work laptop was restricted to 24hz over HDMI until I Thunderbolted it. That was horrendously painful.

I use this monitor with my Mac and it's been great. I think the review mentions everything exactly as it is. Text clarity is amazing, speakers are ok and design wise, it's not ugly(fit for office use and nice bezels that are not too thick). I found out the audio gets this annoying noise(poor bass) at around 75%+ with video calls or regular videos. Dell is replacing the monitor for me. Let's see how it works after that. Great review 👏🏼

Thanks for the great video! One question I've been trying to find this answer online but haven't seen it clearly stated anywhere yet... I understand this monitor has USB-C power delivery to a laptop. My laptop has a USB-C port with DisplayPort support, but it does not support charging the laptop via that USB-C port. Is it possible to still connect this monitor to the laptop via USB-C for passing the video signal and enabling the downstream USB-A ports on the monitor, knowing I would still need to use my laptops separate AC adapter for charging? I assume the connection is smart enough to still enable those video and data features without trying to charge the laptop since it's not supported on the laptop, but was hoping you could confirm that. Thanks!

@privateuser7377 2 года назад

I would not bother paying extra for an usb c PD monitor if your hardware won’t support it. The big thing with this feature is that you only need that one cable for image, usb ports and charging. Coming back to your question: Like any power supply it shouldn’t put out any power if the laptop doesn’t „order“ it to do so.

@blueparrot5793 Год назад

Thanks for the review. Will there be any noticeable degradation in picture quality if I connect my Windows PC through HDMI instead of USB-C?

Yes, it does seem like there are widespread reports of flicker when using this monitor with M1 Macs that remain accurate.

@UltraKryptonian Год назад

FLICKER ALERT!! I’ve owned this monitor since 11/2/22 and had no problems till yesterday (11/30/22). My monitor is connected to my 16” MacBook Pro (w/ M1 Pro chip), via a Dell USB-C cord connected to the MBP’s power connector. Prior to the flickering, the only changes I made to my setup were 1) upgraded MBP’s OS to Ventura, and 2) adjusted my Dell S2722QC monitor’s “Preset mode” (brightness profile) to “RTS”. The flickering didn’t start immediately, after making those changes, but occurred after about an hour later. To stop the flickering, I changed the “preset mode” back to “standard” and turned the monitor’s power off, then on. The flickering stopped. Unfortunately, I don’t know if it’s a long term issue, but my gut feeling it’s probably the MacBook Pro causing problems with the display (i.e. display settings) and not the fault of the monitor.

@GladysGrace001 Год назад

More than likely it could be the iOS version if you’ve updated to Ventura. I’ve been reading many reviews myself and leaning towards getting this monitor for my Mac Studio desktop I currently own another Dell monitor I believe 25 inch but the scaling resolution is currently the issue with small font and icon. Although is doable for now until I get acclimated with my Mac Studio a long 8 yrs+ upgrade from my MacBook Pro.

@UltraKryptonian Год назад

@@GladysGrace001 Unfortunately, the monitor started flickering again, yesterday. I found a Dell video (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xZCBrh3Yzrk.html ) that offered some tips on how to troubleshoot the problem, so I’m going to try that out.

@willm127 Год назад

Do you have an update on this flicker issue? Also, are you able to control the monitor speakers with the Mac volume controls?

@UltraKryptonian Год назад

@@willm127 As far as the flicker is concerned, I read somewhere to do the following: Go into your system settings and go to “displays”. You will see an option to activate or deactivate “True Tone”. Turn it off. I found it stopped the real bad flickering, but noticed some very minor flickering, weeks later. I expanded and shrunk the window and the flickering faded away. As far as your volume control question, I adjust the monitor volume using the hardware’s control panel. The sound of my MBP speakers is so good, I don’t even notice anything from the monitor speakers. Bottom line, I’m still liking the monitor and I’m hoping Apple will do better on their monitor profiles. Worst case, I’ll find a different monitor (Samsung M8?) and use the Dell monitor on one of my PCs.

That's hard to say unfortunately as eye strain is subjective and can vary between users. Some people may also be more sensitive to eye strain issues. This monitor is flicker free though, which should help with eye strain, but we can't guarantee you won't run into issues as your sensitive may be different than others!

I'm currently thinking about getting a 4k monitor, but there is one thing I'm worried about: I occasionally will use it for gaming on a laptop that doesn't have a very powerful graphics card. Upgrading the graphics card isn't an option. Playing in 4k won't be possible with that graphics card. Does anyone have experience with playing with the game at to 1080p on a 4k screen? Naively I think that this should scale up to the screen without blurriness effects as 4k is an exact multiple of 1080p resolution, so one p0ixel calculated by the laptop would be displayed by 4 adjacent pixels on the monitor. Should this work, or am I missing something? Thanks in advance!

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

Hello, Unfortunately monitors don't have the same upscaling processing as on TVs, so you're right that each pixel just needs to be multiplied by 4, but the image isn't as crisp as on a TV. Also, if you sit close to the screen you'll see the bluriness more, but it isn't so much of an issue if you sit further away. I hope this answers your question and let me know if you have any more!

In the official specs the S2721QS has 1300:1 contrast ratio, while the S2722QC only has 1000:1 - but in your tests comparison page, seems like the S2722QC scores better in the contrast aspect? It shows that the S2721QS has native contrast of 1,221 : 1 while the S2722QC has native contrast of 1,304 : 1. How is this possible? Does this mean the higher official contrast ratio of S2721QS doesn't actually give an advantage here?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

Hey Andrea, Technically, things like Contrast ration can vary between units and it doesn’t always line up with the advertised values from the manufacturer. In this case, the units we purchased had the contrast ration we reported. But again, this isn’t uncommon. Sometimes the monitors fail to reach the advertised contrast ratio and other times they surpass it!

use scaling like 125-150%. You will retain the sharpness but everything will be simply bigger.

There is no detail in black and white. Bright scenes are very bright. There is no detail in dark scenes, the environment is too dark. How can I adjust?

Does monitor shakes when i type on keyboard?

It isn't something we noticed during testing, but I guess that would depend on your personal setup, how sturdy your desk is, and how aggressively you're typing.

Between S2722QC and QS, does it make any differences if it’s only usb c VS hdmi? I’m using it with Mac Mini so I don’t need the charging. I read that picture quality might be affected or I may not get as many resolution options?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

The Dell S2722QC is an updated version of the Dell S2721QS with many of the same features, but there are a few differences. They're built the same and have similar picture quality with an IPS panel with wide viewing angles and a 4k resolution. However, the main differences are with the inputs; while the S2722QC has a USB-C input and two USB 3.0 inputs, the S2721QS has a DisplayPort input, which the S2722QC doesn't have. The S2722QC has a slightly quicker response time, but other than that, both monitors are similar.

work with MacBook Air m1?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

There are no issues using this monitor with a recent Mac. On an M1 MacBook Pro, the scaling defaults to 1080p, but this is easily corrected from the 'Displays' menu. VRR and HDR are both supported properly, and there are no issues waking from sleep. We do talk about Mac Compatibility in our full reviews on our website though, so it may be worth checking out!

Please excuse my ignorance on USBC and T3/4 compatiblity; how do I know if the Dell S2722QC - or any other USBC monitor - will work optimally with a Macbook Pro 13" M2 with TB4 ports?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

You won't have issues with the S2722QC over USB-C, but you just won't be able to use the full Thunderbolt 4 support/power because the Dell doesn't support it. That's the same case with most USB-C monitors on the market too. Hope this clears things up!

@thatwasprettyneat Год назад

isn't the max refresh rate 75hz?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

You can technical achieve 75hz, but there's a lot of quirks and caveats and it isn't really usable for most users. For instance, the manual states that you would have to drop it to seems like it can only do it if you drop it to really low resolutions (1280 x 1024 would be the highest resolution with a 75Hz refresh rate according to the manual). Hopefully that clears things up!

Hey Sam, We definitely understand the confusion here, so we'll do our best to clear things up. Simply put, while this monitor has underwhelming out of the box color accuracy, it's excellent after calibration (making it a great choice for photo editing, especially consider the other reason we outlined as well)!

This is a garbage display. Don't recommend buying it if you a) plan to connect it to a macbook or b) hope that it lasts you for more than one year. The swivel is nice, the price is right, and for a while it might looks like it would fit your bill, but it is ridden with bugs and will be thorn on your side. Dell support is unhelpful so unless you want to ride the call-center merry-go-round, save yourself some gray hair and buy something else.
