Thanks for putting these videos together. I'll be interested to see your follow up videos in a few months to see how you're still liking the monitor. I just ordered one on a Black Friday deal and I'm looking forward to trying it out. I'll be using mine strictly for work/productivity as well.
I got one to test even though i knew VA panels are bad, and they are. The high refresh rate is technically useless at this point because the smearing is horrendous. Stay away from VA Panels
My Dell S3422DWG is now not able able to go up to the higher resolutions since the last macOS Monterey version 12.3.1 update. The highest it will go up to now is 1080p. Have you had the same issue and did you find a fix so that the 3440 x1440 resolution is an option?
oh and by the way I have spent 2 weeks with Apple Senior support and Dell support. Apple support fix is delete everything on your MacBook pro and reload it. Then it should work. Dell is that Mac's are not support for this monitor I need to speak to Apple.
I have this screen and every time I plug my MacBook Pro screen in its stretches out the image and it does not appear like yours. Do I need a new cable to get it to auto resize to fill the screen? Any recs thank you
Hi there, when you do a side by side do both sides do 144HZ or are they both locked to 60hz? Also if you do picture in picture does the main picture stay in 144hz?
Hy, I'm having some issues with my Dell 34 monitor, the buttons don't seem to work as they should, the "Presets Modes" option menu keeps heretically popping up and I have'nt found a single shred of info regarding that issue, would you know anything regarding this type of issue?
Any probs with delivery from where you are? Did you order it directly from Dell? I have here in the UK last week and keep getting shipping dates put back, grr. Thanks in advance for any response mate and good vids!
Does it work well with the MacBook via HDMI? Is it that bad that you wanted to use it with the HDR? Or do you reckon using Display Port will be better? Not sure if hdr and display port is the same thing. Thanks for the review
It works well with HDMI to HDMI, however, it cannot have 144 Hz refresh. I cannot remember correctly, my windows laptop should be up to 99 or 100 Hz using HDMI ports on both side. If you have MacBook, you should buy a usb-c to disport port cable to make the refresh better. Now I am using usb-c to DP, 144, Windwos OS, AMD Ryzen laptop.
Hey man, wondering how the Docking feature works... Can I plug everything (keyboard, mouse, hard drive) and then connect one cable from monitor to laptop through USB-C?
@@whatsnew9510 is it possible to only use the DisplayPort - USB-C cable for the image and this docking feature? Or this feature only works using that upstream USB cable?
Santa just brought me this monitor. I feel like the game is stretched, my resolution is set at recommended. It came with 3 cable options, i used the hdmi to hdmi. Should i use a different one, as i have an alien ware r13 gaming pc. So far i hate this look.
Check this comparison out: www.dell.com/en-au/shop/compare?ocs=210-azhu,210-axiw. I would say go the S3422DWG as it will be more future proof with 144hz via Displayport, higher brightness and USB hub.
Hi, I have this monitor. Can you test the USB 3.2 downstream ports? especially the ones towards the bak. I can only get the ones working that are in the front. I've plugged the USB cable into the USB-B upstream port but when I connect to the ports on the back row I get nothing
Hello, I have seen a dell ultra wide model here on youtube connected with two laptops on the same monitor in the same time, you can also connect two laptops with this one?Thanks
I notice the monitor has a 3.5mm sound output. If I plug an external speaker to this port, will the sound come out from the speaker, assuming I jplug HDMI cable from xbox to the monitor?
Does this monitor has a built-in resolution downscaler? Some monitors have it where it can signal the ps5 to output 2160p so the monitor would downscale it to 1440p
There's pros and cons to both. VA has better contrast and blacks. IPS is usually more vibrant/saturated with more washed out/grey blacks. Tom's hardware has a video comparing the differences.
Hi there. Unfortunately, as I do not have the monitor you mentioned, I am not able to compare. if you do find any interesting comparisons then feel free to post them here for reference! .Thanks :)
I just sent my S3422DWG back as frustrated with a few issues including little to no youtube support.I thought in late 2021 support would have been much better, tried browser extensions, only one partially worked but just zooms out picture, looks terrible.Shame as would have liked to have kept it but going back to my 5 year old ASUS MG278Q

@@ExactlyRahul no sorry, haven’t gotten around to it yet.
I can't connect it to my 2015 imac with minidisplay-> HDMI : No hdmi source, do you think its normal ?

I am in Australia, it did take about 2 weeks for delivery. I ordered it on Ebay on the Dell official store.
Are you able to fill each part of the screen when using PIP side by side with 1080p inputs instead of the bars around them?
Why doesnt the screen fill up at 3:21.
Hello, have you bought DP cable from macbook? Tell me the results please, I'm about to buy this one for my macbook pro 2019. Thank you for your time.
No got it from Amazon
Can both the model S3422DW/S3422DWG can split more than two screen?. Thank you for your time.
How's the black smearing on this VA panel? And does the viewing angle any good?
Will do another video to show...black smearing is not too bad in my opinion, and viewing angle is decent for a VA panel.
@@whatsnew9510 That's great. Can't wait to watch it :)
What's different between S3422DW Vs S3422DWG? Thank you for time!!
Dell s3422dw is as regular monitor and S3422DWG is a gaming monitor. The S322DWG has a higher refresh rate
Thank you Ralph
Any compatibility issue with Macbook Pro for Dell monitor ?
Can you use a regular VESA mount for a monitor arm ?

Hi there! I’m looking to buy this monitor. Does it work with the 2022 Apple MacBook m2 ?
It should, don’t see why not. I have no way of trying unfortunately.
How do you change the hz?
Have you had any issues with running 144hz on your MBP? Also what model is the MPB do you use with the monitor?
No issues, just make sure you get the right Display Port cable. I use the MPB 2018
@@whatsnew9510 Are you using USBC to Display Port cable? or are you using a USBC dock for the monitor?
@@joshie902100 I use a USB-C to Display Port Cable. I think going direct is best, you will get the 144hz. Some docks will restrict the throughput.
@@whatsnew9510 Hello, my laptop does not have DP but only HDMI or USB-C. Do you think Bi-directional DP->HDMI cable works without compromise?
When sharing screen on Teams, can you share just half of the screen?
No, but you can just share an app instead of the whole desktop. That's what I do.
Hey man, wondering how the Docking feature works... Can I plug everything (keyboard, mouse, hard drive) and then connect one cable from monitor to laptop through USB-C?
Correct, thats what I have done!
@@whatsnew9510 is it possible to only use the DisplayPort - USB-C cable for the image and this docking feature? Or this feature only works using that upstream USB cable?
Hi, do you get eye strain from this monitor? Do you feel comfortable using this monitor?
Hi. Never had any issues. I run the monitor at 144hz and use it 5-8hrs a day for work. Have not experienced any eye strain
What is the response time for that monitor
Hello can you show some fast paced games, too see how is the smearing...
Hi Does it have Speakers, some reviews say yes, some no .., I have just buy on Amazon yesterday
No built in speakers unfortunately. It does have 2 audio outs so yo can connect a headphone and external speakers to it.
Would this be good to work from home - spreadsheets, emails, etc? Please
Yes that's exactly what I use it for!
@@whatsnew9510 Ha. I should have watched your other video first. Thank you for the prompt reply. Great video. =)

If price is not a factor why go for the S3422DWG VERSUS THE S34DW?

what about black uniformity?you have eny back light bleeding? can you make a video for this?
I have noticed some light bleed when watching a dark video, but for my WFH use case it doesn't really show up, so it does not really bother me.

No, have not found any feature like that in the menu or in the manual.

The monitor looks washed out vs an IPS panel. Is it noticeably less vibrant in person?
I find it vibrant enough for my use case. I have not compared it to an IPS panel. I guess its subjective...
There's pros and cons to both. VA has better contrast and blacks. IPS is usually more vibrant/saturated with more washed out/grey blacks. Tom's hardware has a video comparing the differences.
