Our Verdict

Dell U2723QE

Dell U3425WE

The Dell U2723QE and the Dell U3425WE are both productivity monitors in Dell's UltraSharp lineup. Besides their sizes and resolution, they're different in a few ways, particularly with features. The U3425WE has more USB ports and supports Thunderbolt 4, which is useful if your laptop also supports Thunderbolt. It also has a higher 120Hz refresh rate for a slightly smoother feel and supports VRR, which the U2723QE doesn't. However, the U2723QE delivers sharper text and unlike the U3425WE, it supports HDR.
