    Just got an SMS from Dell.
    My order has been shipped 31/8/2020, yay :)
    Shows shipped in my order status with tracking too.
    I ordered on 1/8/2020 at 5pm
    The last email I received was 2 weeks ago stating an ETA on 1st September.
    If it arrives tomorrow that means their estimate was spot on for my order.

    • HeyHeyHeyIsItADeal on 31/08/2020 - 14:29

      Dam you actually got something from them?

      I asked if my order "end of August" was mine specifically or was it general statistic. Been 1 week or 3 still no reply. So I'm assuming my order date is whatever. They have 2 so idek. Did you use the 5% code? Doesnt seem like anyone who used it has got it shipped.

        No I didn't use the ECU5 code.
        I only used the AUAFFILIATES15%OFF code.
        I payed $534.66 with $29.16 cash back from CR.

  • ag1 on 31/08/2020 - 20:07

    Originally had my estimated arrival as 19/10. Randomly checked the status today to see it has been shipped. Ordered on 1 Aug around 5PM AEST

  • snackerjoe on 31/08/2020 - 22:44

    Great to hear a few orders have been shipped on 31/08, last shipping date was 25/08 for some other orders so it seems they are getting things moved out as soon as they possibly can, the sooner they do this, they sooner we get ours :)

    I received a Dell US email on Aug 27 stating new delivery date around 9/30/2020 (sic). However, the order status page still shows 19/10/2020.

    Good to see majority of those who purchased on 1st August are getting their orders fulfilled. Hopefully those remaining who purchased on the 1st get theirs before the rest of us who ordered on the 2nd August and later.

    I'm one of the 2nd August people (9.50am), still no update and no response via email either. (I'm sure they have been inundated with emails).

    • TheDavey on 01/09/2020 - 17:01

      Still waiting for mine. Ordered around 10:30pm on the 1st

    • HeyHeyHeyIsItADeal on 01/09/2020 - 17:56

      Don't worry you're not alone. Ordered 2nd of August 3AM and no reply to my email asking if the order date of 25th of september is my order specifically or just general statistic but Im 100% sure it's general statistic because I just got an email saying "End of August shipment" but it seemed that was for everyone.

          This is the first IPS monitor I've have bought. Doesn't have a single dead or bright pixel and has excellent viewing angles.

          But the left and right side of the monitor looks like it has a dark shadow like 1cm from the sides when I'm sitting directly in front. ie. it's noticeably dim on the sides. What is that?

          Before this I was using a 27" TN 1080p 144Hz.

            @Lionchu: That's called IPS glow

            • Lionchu on 01/09/2020 - 19:51

              @DoesntEvenMatter: Is IPS glow noticeable when the background is white too?
              Because it's when the background is white, like on Ozbargain, is when I notice the sides are darker.
              And when the background is completely black it doesn't even look like it has "IPS glow" from the same angle. Weird.
              But tbh though, it's not even that bad. I'm gonna ask my brother and see what he thinks…

          • conman123 on 20/09/2020 - 13:53

  • zaido on 01/09/2020 - 22:33

    I ordered 02/08 around 11am and still in the 19/10 boat. It doesn't help when the Auspot app suddenly notifies me a package is on the way when its actually an online ordered from my wife under my name lol

  • Rupture on 02/09/2020 - 10:36

    I ordered very late on the 01/08, just before midnight. Got an email from the CS rep I've been dealing with basically saying they're closing the case because the ETA isn't changing and to expect my order in October. That puts any hope to bed it seems for now. Pretty disappointing experience all round aside from the great price.

    • deathjr on 02/09/2020 - 14:04

      Same reply for me, customer rep got snarky in the email.

        I kind of get it tbh. It's entirely out of their hands, and they've probably been getting lots of ill mannered emails. There is nothing they can do except relay information.

        • deathjr on 02/09/2020 - 17:10

          Yeah, fair enough.

          All I asked was if there was an update, to which I received a long reply on how I had agreed to wait for the delayed ETA and they will close the case.

    Some people who ordered on the 02/08 received theirs last week, and not the early 02/08 buyers either :/

    Few examples:

    Order #876161577 was delivered on 26/08
    Order #876161569 was delivered on 26/08
    Order #876161567 was delivered on 29/08

    But many numbers lower than those remain unshipped and have the 19/10 ETA, so it’s clearly all over the shop.

  • lacmac on 03/09/2020 - 02:00

    I decided to get all of the order details via scraping the Dell site very slowly as to not be an ass. So far I believe I have all of the orders placed on 01/08/20.
    The lowest order number I found was #876160038 (next was #876160185) although I did not bother to check below #876160000.
    The lowest order number that has not been shipped or delivered yet is #876160320, poor guy.

    Here are some other stats for the orders done on 01/08/20:
    * Number of Orders: 521
    * Cancelled Orders: 50 (9.6%)
    * Delivered Orders: 247 (47.41%)
    * Shipped Orders: 23 (4.41%)
    * In Production Orders: 201 (38.58%)

    And a frequency list of the delivered dates
    * 04/08/2020: 57
    * 05/08/2020: 16
    * 07/08/2020: 4
    * 10/08/2020: 1
    * 11/08/2020: 3
    * 21/08/2020: 1
    * 24/08/2020: 23
    * 25/08/2020: 2
    * 26/08/2020: 77
    * 27/08/2020: 14
    * 28/08/2020: 4
    * 31/08/2020: 5
    * 01/09/2020: 40

    Will update when I get the rest of the data. It will be a couple days.

    • snackerjoe on 03/09/2020 - 08:53
      +2

      Thanks for the input, looking forward to the update. I expect there would be more orders for 02/08 due to the extra 5% code.

      Just for reference, here are the numbers sena86 got from Dell on page 9

      17/8 - 32 units
      28/8 - 176 units
      1/9 - 64 units
      18/9 - 64 units

      Anyway, from your stats it looks like they haven't even got 50% of the 01/08 orders delivered yet, so… might indeed be a 30/09 delivery for me :(

      • UAT on 03/09/2020 - 15:43

        Also according to previous comments, there are 800 units will be received on 25/09, as long as I can get on 28/09 as they confirmed in the email, I am happy.

        • snackerjoe on 03/09/2020 - 16:23

      Just to give an idea of where orders on the 1st might end, I ordered this on the 1st for $534 (close to midnight) and my last four digits are close to 1200.

      • lacmac on 03/09/2020 - 10:57

        Yep, that seems about right. The last order I have for the 1st is #876161189. After that are orders made on the 2nd.

        • Circly on 03/09/2020 - 13:44

            @Circly: Not sure yet as I am still collecting that data. It takes a while as the Dell website will limit you if you load too many pages too quickly.
            Right now I am up to order #876161770 out of approximately #876163000 and so far there have been 388 orders on 02/08/20 with 40 been delivered.

        Amazing how many of these were ordered really. As mentioned my first order was on the Saturday and I ended up cancelling to reorder (silly!) there is a difference of 1442 orders in that timeframe to when I reordered midday Sunday. Hoping there are just more than monitor orders in there though!

        • lacmac on 03/09/2020 - 18:50

          Damn, that's unfortunate.
          If you want to know from order number #876160000 to #876162000 there are about 1050 orders for this monitor and I haven't even gotten close to my order number yet.

          • MBix on 03/09/2020 - 19:24

            @lacmac: My first order number was 8761602XX range and second is sitting at 8761616XX

            Still hopeful it'll pop up in an earlier stock arrival, and as impatient as I am, I'm also still happy waiting haha, but their process interests me none the less!

          • snackerjoe on 04/09/2020 - 08:16

            @lacmac: I feel a bit happy that mine is in the 614XX range now, can't believe there are so many orders up to 2000.

        • snackerjoe on 04/09/2020 - 00:56

          If there is 1442 difference in your order numbers, it doesn't mean all were for this monitor, there are actually quite a lot for other hardware as well.

          • MBix on 04/09/2020 - 12:01

            @snackerjoe: Yeh I thought as much. The more the better haha

      • HeyHeyHeyIsItADeal on 16/09/2020 - 14:47

      Nice work! I was close to writing a scraper too :)

      One gotcha is that not all orders are for the Dell 27" 144hz (this monitor) - So are you checking/filtering those out while scraping?

      • lacmac on 03/09/2020 - 18:48

        Cheers mate. I was too curious on what the stats would be like so I wrote one up.
        Yeah, definitely. I'm making sure that I'm only storing orders that contain 'S2721DGF' in them. So far I have gone through about 2000 orders and only half of them have been for this monitor.

    Guys,there are reports of an intermittent black screen issue with this monitor when gaming which I am also experiencing with this monitor.

    https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9vy7kp73

    • MBix on 03/09/2020 - 19:29

      Interesting, I was having this same issue on my ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD, a few people suggested it was too close to other electronics, but playing around with settings I seemed to get it sorted out and hasn't done it in ages. Problem is I have no idea what it actually was that solved it. Hopefully it's just a mixture of settings for the Dell or (as unfortunate as it for the Whirlpool OP) hopefully not widespread

      • Torch000 on 15/09/2020 - 23:17

        Did you order this too to alongside the Viewsonic? I bought the viewsonic last month and this one too but if they are similar enough, may just cancel the dell lol

        • MBix on 16/09/2020 - 01:01
          +1

          I had the ViewSonic already when I ordered this. My concern being that the ViewSonic for whatever reason isn't allow my Xbox One X to achieve 1440p@120hz like it does on the LG version of this monitor. Doesn't really matter at the moment, but was hoping it didn't have the same issues communicating with the Xbox Series S/X so I just ordered this one as well. I did get an RMA for the ViewSonic but will probably just use it as a second monitor as it works beautifully on my PC still.

    • snackerjoe on 04/09/2020 - 00:59

      Dude, this is so funny, you're not the same guy as the OP in that thread right? Blackwolf…

      Edit: Actually it sounds like you are, same PSU, GPU etc

    • Bargainendorphins on 07/09/2020 - 14:53

      I have the monitor and had this happen, I think it's related to other electronics. Every time my fridge would make a normal working noise the screen would flash black, I changed where I plugged it in and it no longer happens. Oddly when I used my PS4 it it never happened at all.

  • WhiteWolf23 on 03/09/2020 - 19:53

    I'm not certain myself of what the issue is but within 15 minutes of playing a game like TF2 on this monitor, the screen goes black for 2 seconds and then returns to normal. This continues to happen whilst I play. I've tried a different display port cable as well playing at 1440p@144hz and 1440p@60hz with Freesync off and the issue still occurs.

    I did not have this issue with my previous Dell 24inch 1080P monitor. I'm wondering if my RX470 GPU is simply not powerful enough to drive this monitor. However, I don't exactly play games which have high system requirements.

    One thing I will note is that I do not experience the black screen issue on this monitor when using it for things like Internet browsing.

    • DoesntEvenMatter on 03/09/2020 - 20:44

      Have you update drivers? Have you got a high quality psu. Could be EMF between the card and monitor, possibly from a dirty psu signal

      • WhiteWolf23 on 03/09/2020 - 20:51

        I updated the drivers and have a high quality PSU (EVGA G3 550W).

        I tested again just now at 1080P@60hz (Freesync enabled). Not a single black screen occurred while I played TF2.

        Would this indicate an issue with the GPU?

          Not sure 2k@60 shouldn't have issues with that card. Try a benchmark for you card. If it doesn't black out it won't be your card

        It seems like the purchase date doesn't have too much of an effect on the estimated delivery date. Although, for a lot of people the Dell website hasn't updated the ETA with the new dates they've received in their email. So the majority of the ETA's are on 19th of Oct or 22nd of Oct.

        01/08/2020 (201 In Production)
        * 19/10/2020: 158
        * 20/10/2020: 3
        * 22/10/2020: 39
        * 23/10/2020: 1

        02/08/2020 (930 In Production)
        * 16/10/2020: 5
        * 19/10/2020: 701
        * 20/10/2020: 2
        * 21/10/2020: 3
        * 22/10/2020: 214
        * 23/10/2020: 5

        02/08/2020 (37 In Production)
        * 19/10/2020: 30
        * 22/10/2020: 7

      Good work! Better than looking at coronavirus stats. Maybe chart the delivery rate, and hopefully we'll see a "second wave" that's welcome! :-)

      Dam, Mines 876161867 and seems like I got skipped :C

      I've made another chart showing the order they are fulfilling these orders in. The bottom axis is the last four digits of the Dell order numbers.

        edit doh that was the internet order number mine is actually 2267

      • mangoface on 07/09/2020 - 15:59

        Wonder why they've decided to prioritise that cluster of orders around XXXXX1500

      Any chance of doing an update maybe next week sometime to see if the numbers have changed? I haven't seen any comments over the past weekend saying "delivered!" so it seems there might not have been any new deliveries.

      • SkeletoR22 on 08/09/2020 - 16:20

        From what has been posted it looks like the next delivery will be the 25/09 some DELL csr's indicated this will be about 800 units, this is likely why alot of us got an email saying new ETA is 30/09.

      • hengzhan on 08/09/2020 - 17:04

        My updated ETA was 9/9, so I was expecting a batch shipped on 7/9 (they seem to ship on mondays and fridays), but nothing happened.. I also secretly checked the unshipped orders before me and I think none of them has shipped..

      • lacmac on 08/09/2020 - 21:40

        Yeah sure thing. I'm thinking of doing one every two weeks, so expect the next update around the 19th of this month.

    RTINGS.com has received the S2721DGF! Seems like they will be the first on the scene with a comprehensive written review sometime this week

      Even if this is a smidge worse than the LG, I don't see a better buy than this at $500ish. Look forward to finally seeing proper reviews.

    Apparently Dell have moved to sea transport vs air for most of its stock now. Could explain blown out time frames.

      Nice find, thanks for posting. Do you reckon that means that the October 19th date is going to be blown back further?

      • Frayin on 09/09/2020 - 12:54

        I'd wager a November/December delivery date for those of us with a "xx/10/2020" date.

          YOU WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT

    • sena86 on 09/09/2020 - 08:45

      Thanks for the info.

      Looks like we'll now be wishing that we do get it on October 18th/19th (depending on what screen you look at :P)

        i dont think we are getting on 19/10/20 though because they changed shipping via air (plane) to water (boat) so its going to take even longer…

      OMG Finally 1 review. RTINGS should have 1 out very soon because they got theirs last week. So far this monitor lookin really good. Not sure what the Freesync Premium Pro is though, arent all freesync just freesync like gsync is gsync.

      • tmr3 on 11/09/2020 - 18:37

        FreeSync Premium and FreeSync Premium Pro are AMD display certifications, similar to G-SYNC Compatible and G-SYNC Ultimate in some ways.

        In AMD's own words, FreeSync Premium Pro displays are certified for:
        * At least 120 Hz refresh rate at a minimum of FHD resolution
        * Support for low framerate compensation (LFC)
        * Low latency in both SDR and HDR modes
        * Support for HDR with meticulous colour and luminance certification

        Games can also go through the FreeSync Premium Pro certification process which apparently tests things like luminance accuracy and wide colour gamut support.
