27' vs 24' monitor: Which Should You Buy!? (Dell P2723D vs P2423D review)

I compare identical 27" and 24" monitors in image & gaming to see which is best. Also, find out how these two 1440p Dell monitors perform in my video!

Alternatives to consider:
-Philips 276B9: Affordable 1440p IPS

-Philips 276C8: Colour accurate 1440p IPS with USB-C

-BenQ PD2705Q: Best for designers who want USB-C

-BenQ PD2700Q: Best for designers WITHOUT USB-C (cheaper)

-Lenovo ThinkVision P27h-20: Another colour accurate USB-C monitor

-BenQ EX2710Q: Low-input lag 1440p 144Hz IPS

-Acer Nitro VG270UP: Best budget 1440p 144Hz

Same here. When I bought my 27 inch monitor I was overwhelmed. Coming from a 21 inch, I thought it was too big. I visited several Internet forums and everyone told me that 27 inch is a big no no for competitive gaming. Fast forward two weeks, I absolutely love it. I got used to it so fast that now going back to 21 inch seems impossible for me. And my gaming has never been better, I play pubg competitively and my performance has gotten even better. I'd be kicking myself if I'd gotten a 24 inch.

After 20 years of gaming and 15 of photography i didn't searched for the best thing that money could buy, i went smart and used the best of both worlds. I had two monitors, 1 LG 27' 4k and a Dell 24' 1080p at the same time but after i got rid of the Dell...i found the 27' to be too big for daily use and tiring no matter the calibration, settings, etc, it is the distance between me and the monitor. Right now i was searching for a downgrade and to stop using two monitors i started looking for this Dell P2423D that i think it would be the best upgrade from a 1080p/same size monitor. This review was enough for me to thank you for it!

Competitive Gaming (Specially FPS) = 24" is the King
Casual Gaming (Specially RTS Games) = 27" is the King

[shanksisnoteventhatstrongbruh]

i wish 24" 1440p240Hz+ monitors existed, all 24" 180Hz+ monitors are 1080p :(

[dusanstevic]

Now THAT's what I call a review! Straight to the point.

[eskoq]

Besides 24 inches - 27 would be the absolute max for gaming personally I wouldn't go past 27.
Great review

[LordCarmesimXXVII]

24" 1440p looks amazing, 4k level ppi.

[Alopkaable]

I have a full hd 27 inch monitor and it's perfect for me, never understood people who complain about ppi at this size. I can barely see pixels even when I move as close as 10 cm away from the monitor. At an arm's length distance everything is crisp.

[tonyfromhogwarts]

Thank you very much for the video!
You answered all my questions :)
Keep up with the great work!

[As-zckt]

For office & text based work i believe 24" is perfect size with 1440p, i am using 27 " 1440p it is bigger but cases nake pain.

[User-abc-op]

27 inch was the best atleast for gaming. I've tested very different larges but this is my recommendation

[lTStevenWingslT]

Thank you for the review!!! I've been debating whether this will be good for my casual gaming purposes (considering I am looking for something with high PPI and great colors for other uses). 60FPS is enough for me and learning that the input lag is 3ms is phenomenal news (as it was not listed anywhere I looked)

[gulmariyazhapakova]

Thank you for your video. Comments from people are really helpful.

[panyat]

just switched 24" 75hz 1080p to 27" 144hz 1440p somethings off playing fps games, specially csgo my spray is a little off. im still adjusting to it.

[Cereal_Killer]

Is this a good monitor for media consumption, like watching movies or a TV show? If not, what are other options given this price range?

[nd]

Me, from 17", 19", 20"..CRT, LCD, LED
4:3, 5:4, 16:9, 16:10
Going back using 5:4 19" monitor.

[protonjicari]

24in dual or even triple when working,
27in for PC gaming
55in for console gaming

[Neinka]

Which one would you recommend for causal gaming and drawing 24" or 27" when my only option is 1080? I am upgrading from gaming laptop 17" 120Hz 1080.

all videos I find are 24'' 1080p vs 27'' 1440p comparison. Of course, the 27'' 1440p monitor will be better than the 1080p monitor. But what about a 24'' 1440p vs 27'' 1440p monitor comparison? for me the 24'' 1440p monitor would be better because I don't want to sit farther away and it would be better for ppl that don't have enough desk space. I know there are not many 24'' 1440p gaming monitors, I've only seen the AOC one xd. But If these youtubers make videos comparisons of 24'' 1440p gaming monitors probably the demand and production will increase.
