I rolled with dual Dell 27" IPS monitors for about 5-6 years, and I loved them. My young daughter spilled milk in one of those monitors, so it was time for a new setup. I decided to upgrade to the 32-34" range to pair with my other 27". I did a ton of research, and wanted to keep it below $400, so I bought the Asus VG3A series, a VA panel. While the screen real estate and high refresh rates were great, the panel and color reproduction were very much "meh" compared to even my older IPS panels. It just felt "hollow". Not to mention I plug my speaker system into my monitors because I often switch PC's between work and personal, and the audio out connection had a ton of feedback. I decided to just try an OLED monitor to see what the difference would be, and even though the Alienware is significantly more expensive, I simply can't go back. The colors, clarity, settings, construction and connectivity are incredible. Attached are images compared to my high-end laptop screen and 27" IPS. The contrast, colors, and clarity are just amazing. I am a software developer (not a gamer), so the deep blacks and color accuracy make working in editors extremely pleasant. If there was one complaint, the text isn't quite as sharp as I would like (mainly dark text on light backgrounds) due to a side effect of OLED technology, but you get used to it. I also tempted my fate by ordering "Used - Acceptable" from Amazon to save several hundred dollars, and to be honest it appears to be completely unused. All original packaging items were present, and the screen/panel didn't even have a single fingerprint. All in all, it seems that I prefer Dell monitors, and this Alienware does not disappoint. Even though I paid several hundred dollars more than I wanted, you get what you pay for. And if your livelihood is staring at monitors for 6-8 hours a day like me, it's completely worth it.

Just not really any other way to put it. From the overall design of the monitor itself, to the picture quality, to the built in safety features to prevent any damage to the panel, this display is just killer. [Some gripes I have] Firstly the packaging it came in, though good, needs serious improvement. Primarily the wrapping it comes in leaves bubble wrap stains on the display which looks abysmal and though some reports claim they were never able to get these markings off their panels, mine came off with just a bit of screen cleaner and a good wipe. I also dislike that there's no ability to personally upgrade the firmware. This results in having to buy an entirely new panel if a better firmware becomes available and that's a bit asinine with how expensive this display is. The blacks aren't super good if you're in a bright room due to problems with ambient lighting, which could take away from the enjoyment you get from the display, so it's, in my opinion anyways, most enjoyable in a darker room which is primarily where Im using it. No HDMI 2.1 which is extremely disappointing as this hurts the ability to use this monitor in its full capacity on a gaming console. That doesn't affect me however because I have an LG 55 inch oled for just such the occasion and primarily pc game. Fortunately for me. The ultra wide aspect of this display has been.. an adjustment period as well. Although overall the quality of this is, as aforementioned, incredible, it's worth pointing out that it takes a lot of adjusting if you're coming from your typical 16:9 displays and you'll see this primarily in things like watching YouTube videos, movies, and in some video games. You especially notice the difference in one of my worst examples, the game Hell Let Loose. I absolutely cannot play it in 21:9 whatsoever. Just cannot. It's so stretched out and hideous looking that it almost made me nauseous. And that sucks primarily because that's one of my favorite games, and 16:9 leaves black bars on the sides of the game which isn't a huge deal but I digress. So expect not all your games to look ideal to you when getting this and potentially having to compromise. [Praise and tips] Frankly I just don't have anything short of absolute praise for this display. I've found the best experience to be sitting back a few feet from my desk with a controller, or my wireless mouse and keyboard upon my lap-table. I personally use HDR 400 true black over the HDR 1000 option because it truly, in my opinion of course, looks insanely better, darker, significant and more atmospheric this was especially true in the modern warfare 2 campaign. Overall I'm greatly enjoying this display, I hope it lasts me a very long time as I baby it about as much as someone could possibly recommend babying an OLED. I personally use brave browser with the darkreader extension, use windows dark theme, a Screensaver after 2 minutes of not being at my desk, I hide my Taskbar, and I make sure that in any games there's no static red anywhere. I absolutely love that after four hours of use on this panel, when shut off it'll do an automatic pixel refresh. Now that doesn't mean this panel is susceptible to any burn-in whatsoever, it is an oled panel after all..but with a lot of TLC and awareness of what you have on your display, the likeliness of it burning in is about as likely as a meteor striking your house and even if SOMEHOW you do everything I recommend and it still burns in, well Dell has your back with a three year warranty. Just make sure you register it on their website when you get the display. However, and I cannot stress this enough whatsoever, this display, much like any oled display, is probably not the ideal choice if you're somebody who works from home and sits infront of their computer for an asinine amount of time. This is pretty much ideal for gamers who game for long periods of time where stuff is happening on the screen constantly. Again though, Im loving this display, it has been nothing short of a game changer for me and leaves me excited for the future of oled monitors. I'm in no rush to upgrade my pc to a 4090 an 13900k to game in 4k 120fps, and as an owner of both a 4k oled and now this, there really isn't that HARDCORE of a noticeable difference imo and this is perfect for my current pc specs. Couldn't be happier, couldn't rate this higher, trust me you're going to want this badboy when it comes back and isn't being scalped for 1600.

I recently picked up this monitor to replace my 1080p widescreen, and I have to say, it's been an absolute game-changer. The picture quality is nothing short of stunning. The colors are rich and vibrant, with deep blacks. The clarity is unmatched—every detail pops, and the contrast is just perfect. Even in well-lit rooms, the display holds up beautifully, with no loss of clarity or color accuracy. The size is perfect for multitasking, offering plenty of screen real estate without feeling overwhelming. I’ve also noticed no ghosting or motion blur, which makes it great for fast-paced games and videos. If you’re looking for a monitor that provides next-level picture quality, this 34” OLED is definitely worth every penny. Packaging was more than adequate and is well worth the price (I bouht this for $650). Highly recommend!

The Alienware AW3423DWF Curved Monitor is, without a doubt, one of the best gaming monitors I’ve ever owned. From the moment I set it up, I could tell this was going to be a game-changer. It boasts a 34-inch QD-OLED display that brings a level of depth and color accuracy that’s nothing short of spectacular. Whether I’m playing fast-paced action games or exploring visually rich open-world environments, this monitor delivers an immersive experience like no other. Design and Build Quality The design is sleek and modern, in line with Alienware’s signature style. The monitor’s ultra-thin bezels make it a perfect fit for a multi-monitor setup, though the display itself is so wide that I don’t feel the need for a second screen. The 1800R curvature provides an excellent balance between immersion and comfort, drawing me into the action without overwhelming my field of vision. It’s easy to adjust the height, tilt, and swivel, so I was able to find the perfect viewing angle quickly. The build quality feels solid and premium, as expected from Alienware. Display and Performance Now onto the heart of the matter—the display. The 3440x1440p QD-OLED panel offers exceptional clarity, making even the smallest details in games or movies stand out. Colors are vivid and vibrant, and the blacks are truly deep, which is where this monitor really shines compared to traditional LED displays. The HDR performance is stunning, creating a dynamic contrast that enhances every scene. What really impressed me was the 165Hz refresh rate combined with Adaptive Sync. The gaming experience is buttery smooth with no screen tearing or ghosting, even in high-motion games like Call of Duty and Cyberpunk 2077. The 0.1ms response time makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced shooters, providing a competitive edge. Additionally, the 1000-nit peak brightness for HDR content makes it perfect for both dark and brightly lit rooms, making every in-game moment look as realistic as possible. Connectivity and Features The Alienware Command Center makes it easy to tweak settings to your liking. I was able to fine-tune the color accuracy and customize the lighting settings with ease. It also comes with multiple connectivity options, including two HDMI ports, DisplayPort, and a USB hub, ensuring I can plug in all my peripherals without a hitch. One of my favorite features is the AlienFX lighting—it’s customizable and adds a nice touch to my gaming setup. While it’s not necessary for performance, it certainly enhances the overall aesthetics, especially during late-night gaming sessions. The on-screen display (OSD) is intuitive and offers plenty of customization, whether I’m adjusting brightness, contrast, or enabling game-specific presets. Final Thoughts In summary, the Alienware AW3423DWF is an absolute powerhouse for gaming and productivity alike. The combination of the ultra-wide curved display, QD-OLED technology, and high refresh rate creates a gaming experience that is both visually stunning and incredibly responsive. Alienware has truly delivered with this monitor, and I can confidently say it’s well worth the investment for serious gamers or anyone who wants the best in visual performance. If you’re looking for a monitor that can handle anything you throw at it—whether it’s competitive gaming, content creation, or just enjoying cinematic visuals—this is the one to get. Absolutely incredible and worth every penny!

La verdad es que dados los precios alzados de la gran mayoría de los monitores OLED ultrawide, éste es probablemente el mejor. Muchos se quejan del ruido del ventilador, yo no oigo nada. Muchos se quejan del probable problema con los píxeles pero, tienes tres años de garantía con DELL, así que no se preocupen. Lo único que no me ha gustado, es que cada 4 horas debo interrumpír (no es obligatorio pero si recomendable) lo que estás haciendo, para poder actualizar los píxeles. Y la otra, es que el PS5 se ve con la pantalla recortada, es decir, no te da la resolución ultrawide. :/ No puedo creer que me haya durado 3 meses el monitor, y se fundió. No es que no de imagen, es que no da ni energía! Se apagó de la nada. Y DELL no se hace responsable, ya que vivo en México. Qué horror de servicio y producto! Mejor váyanse por el Samsung.

Please don’t buy this monitor. The package that it came in was really dirt and had holes in it. The stand that you attach to the monitor is slightly bent and the monitor is black not white. I was extremely sad about how everything turned out and I wanted to write a review to warn everyone about it. If you want a used monitor and don’t really care about what color or condition it might come in then get this but if you’re like me and want a brand new monitor and white how it’s advertised, then don’t spend your money.

Product has a poor screen coating that is prone to damage and scatches. Monitor image quailty is good with high refresh rate.

Play Video En general es un excelente producto, desgraciadamente me tocó que tuviera un pixel stuck y esto provoca que una linea rosada se proyecte en el monitor El embalaje no fué de mi agrado, se empaquetó en una caja mas grande haciendo que la caja del monitor golpeara facilmente cuando se estuviera transportando
