Our Verdict

Dell S2719DGF

Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx

Although they use different panel technologies, the Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx is much better than the Dell S2719DGF. The Acer displays more uniform blacks and supports HDR, great for dark room gaming. It also has wider viewing angles so you can share your screen with a friend, and both enjoy an accurate image. The Dell, on the other hand, has a higher resolution and a TN panel, which is great for gaming. The response time of the Dell is extremely fast, and fast-moving content on your games will appear crisp with almost no blur trail.
