Reviewer score 74%The Dell S3422DWG is a great gaming monitor with low input lag and a fast response time. It's very good for watching videos or media creators, with good contrast and a superb color gamut. Finally, it's a good monitor for gaming in HDR, but it's not bright enough for a true cinematic HDR experience.
