Our Verdict

LG 32UD59-B

Dell S3219D

The LG 32UD59-B is significantly better than the Dell S3219D. The LG has a better 4k resolution and can display more detail on your screen, and has a better out-of-the-box color accuracy. On the other hand, the Dell has a slightly higher refresh rate and marginally lower input lag, great for gaming.
