Dell G2725D
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- The Dell G2725D has a much brighter screen than the Acer Nitro EDA270U and you don’t want to pay retail for Windows.
- The 27” Dell G2725D is a very good budget choice.
- Wrong, the G2725D is better than the 24D in every way except the stand. I already have a monitor arm, so between the two the 25D is much better since it has better specs and is cheaper.
- Dell G2725D is the hot budget pick right now
Cons
- I also see the Dell G2725D that is available. Is it better than the G2724D or just a naming scam?
- The Dell G2725D is $130-$150. It's not great. You get what you pay for. It's the Little Caesars of 1440p gaming monitors.
- I wouldn't get either personally because... the Dell has a terrible stand that lacks any kind of height adjustment.
- Absolutely do not get the G2725D, it’s a massive downgrade and honestly pretty scummy by Dell to market it as an upgrade when it’s so much worse.
- The fact that Rtings have had to send 2 back says a lot.

all the [comments ](https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcmonitors/comments/1gjo086/dell_g2725d_initial_thoughts_and_experiences/)about it on Reddit seem to say it's a downgrade from the previous model (G2724D).
G2725D is not a good model.
