At the time of testing, the Dell Alienware AW2725DF cost around 650 euros - you can't get an OLED monitor for much less. What's more, in terms of refresh rate, it makes the test winner Philips look old. The Dell refreshes the image on its display up to 360 times per second. However, the visible screen area is smaller than that of the Philips. And: The Dell Alienware has to make do without USB-C.
At the time of testing, the Dell Alienware AW2725DF cost just 700 euros. It has the same QD OLED display with 360 Hertz as the MSI. The biggest difference: The Dell Alienware has to make do without a USB-C socket with DisplayPort function. If you don't like a glossy screen and can live with 240 Hertz, you can opt for the 20 euro cheaper LG - see left.
