Our Verdict
Dell S2722DGM
Dell G2724D
The Dell S2722DGM and the Dell G2724D are both budget-friendly 1440p gaming monitors. However, there are a few differences between them as they have different panel types. The G2724D has wider viewing angles because of this, so it's the better choice for co-op gaming. The G2724D also has less black smearing with fast-moving objects. However, the S2722DGM has a higher contrast ratio, so it's better for well-lit rooms. Even though the G2724D supports HDR, which the S2722DGM doesn't, it doesn't add much because of the G2724D's limited picture quality.
