    Wait the site doesn't say it's on sale, is $500 gonna be the normal price at kmart??? If so, we could see this monitor go even further down in price 😮

    Kmart is probably the last place I would expect to buy a monitor - let alone a Xiaomi monitor! - but I think I'd be willing to pay a $50 premium compared to the $450 on Ebay tomorrow.

    • JustLorenzo on 28/11/2020 - 11:59

      why would you pay $50 extra?

    This vs the Dell S2721DGF 27" 165hz Gaming Monitor from yesterday for primarily Gaming?

    Spec wise seems like a slightly smaller refresh rate but for a much larger and curved monitor if thats your thing but I am a total monitor noob

    • JustLorenzo on 28/11/2020 - 11:58
      +1

      This is curved ultrawide aspect ratio 21:9, and a VA pannel.
      The Dell is regular aspect ratio 16:9 and an IPS pannel.
      It depends on what you want!

      • DangerNoodle on 28/11/2020 - 14:46

        I went from a 32inch 1080p 144hz monitor to this yesterday. Some games don't support the 21:9 for cutscenes and have black bars to shrink it to 16:9 (AC valhalla), but for the most part I don't regret the change. I do need a better graphics card though, my Vega 64 liquid edition isn't powerful enough to max out the monitor.

    • cille745 on 28/11/2020 - 15:43
      +2

      The Dell has a much better panel in every respect except contrast, if you look up reviews for this you'll find that the pixel response times can't quite keep up

    • Baa on 28/11/2020 - 16:52

      I actually moved from an older 30" to a 27" 165hz monitor last year and found gaming on the 27" to be preferable for me.

      I think it all depends of preference and don't think I will be in a rush to jump on the ultrawide boat.

    • Davesday on 28/11/2020 - 22:32
      +1

      I have both units and I can't say one is better than the other. The Dell is excellent for gaming and meets all the 'competitive' specs requirements. However sometimes it appears 'washed out' due to the poor contrast ratio. IPS colours are really good though. The Xiaomi's colour is a little 'muted' but boy it is really contrasty at the same time. The VA panel's pixel response can't keep up with 144Hz and there are some dark smearing but it is not noticeable at all.

      I got both so I can use one for gaming and the other for productivity (best of both worlds for me).

  • GaryQ on 28/11/2020 - 11:56

    Is it a concern that this monitor is 3400*1440
    Should I hold out for 3840 x 2160 or is the difference not that noticeable?

    • Monsta-AU on 28/11/2020 - 12:01

      Wider aspect ratio works better in many games like shooters, racing & flight sims.

    • Lance Miranda on 28/11/2020 - 13:46
      +1

      3840 × 2160 is 4k, a 16:9 resolution, which if a 4k monitor is what u want, sure. But 4k monitors are usually 60hz, while 144hz 4k monitors are insanely expensive. 3440x1440 is a great resolution for 34 inch ultrawide, same density as 27inch 2560 × 1440. I don't think you should hold out for a 2160p ultrawide, as that will cost thousands.

    • DangerNoodle on 28/11/2020 - 14:49
      +1

      Depends on what you plan to use it for. If you plan to use it for PC for movies and games it will be great. If you plan to also use it for console, then you may be better off getting a 4k monitor. Ps5 apparently doesn't support 1440p, only 1080p and 4k. Unsure about the Xbox series X supporting ultrawide resolutions.

  • jattsta on 28/11/2020 - 12:14

    Hi need some help fellas.
    Should I buy this or Philips 345E2AE UWQHD 75Hz FreeSync IPS 34in Monitor

    I use the monitor during the day for work and play COD and Flight Sim at night.
    Is VA panel good for work use? Or is IPS much preferred?
    Is the difference between 75hz to 144hz noticeable? Running a 3080.
    I play for the lulz and prefer quality picture over fps speed.
    Is a curved monitor beneficial bcos I don't mind a straight panel.

    Any other good monitor that has the same features as the Philips?

    Cheers.

    • squall3031 on 28/11/2020 - 12:28

      You're runny RTX 3080. You might as well take advantage of 144 hz goodness. :)

      • jattsta on 28/11/2020 - 12:50

        Thanks mate. I also do alot of spreadsheet work during the day and the phillips has a higher PPI of 119 as opposed to xiaomi of 110.
        Will my satisfaction on 75hz still be almost as good as 144?

        • DangerNoodle on 28/11/2020 - 14:50
          +1

          The difference in PPI is not as significant as the extra screen real estate you gain from going ultrawide

          • jattsta on 28/11/2020 - 15:35

            @DangerNoodle: The Philips and xioami both have the same resolution. I assume the better PPi will affect screen reading right?

            • DangerNoodle on 28/11/2020 - 15:48

              @jattsta: Whoops, didn't realise that. Strange that the DPI is different given that they're both the same resolution with the same panel size. I would imagine it would be a calculation error as same panel size and same resolution usually means same DPI. Sharpness should be similar, if not the same.

              • jattsta on 28/11/2020 - 17:35

                @DangerNoodle: Yeah thanks. It looks like it was a typo.
                Just saw some reviews on YouTube and looks pretty good for the price. Will most likely get one from Kmart

  • quikstix on 28/11/2020 - 12:26

    Understandable it is more pricey than eBay's deal Sunday if you have eBay plus. For those who don't tho, I would get it from Kmart.. a physical store to take it back to if there were issues at all seems logical to me but there definitely are cheaper options.

    • hollykryten on 28/11/2020 - 13:01

      It depends on which monitor is better. I would have thought the Dell brand would have been better. But i may be wrong.

  • MaxHashrate on 28/11/2020 - 13:50

    zero regrets buying the ones from digidirect for 470$. I would much rather pay 20$ extra to be able to bring it to a store within 5km of me than to deal with posting a bulky monitor back for any warranty claims.

    Same goes with kmart ones if you can pay with suncorp kmart vouchers and earn flybuys.

    Just look at how often monitors have issues…. dead pixels, light bleed, etc…

    • ozvictor on 28/11/2020 - 15:02

      Depends on what's your onboard GPU and what's resolution you're going to the monitor to?

          Well then it's perfect buying from Kmart. They have a great return policy.

  • Godric on 28/11/2020 - 16:33

    Interesting to see from Kmart

  • Ice009 on 28/11/2020 - 16:34

    I see a lot of people saying you'd have to return the monitor if there are issues. I am assuming with big name brands like LG, Asus etc. they would send a technician out to your house if you bought it online rather than having to post it back. Would that be correct?

    With this Monitor, I assume you have to send it back to Kmart, if so, I guess I am out as I wouldn't want to take the risk. By the way, how many years warranty does this model have?

    I missed out on the Dell 27" DGF yesterday, so I've been looking at other screens.

    • Lance Miranda on 29/11/2020 - 08:36

      2 years warranty. And kmart are pretty good with returns so it shouldnt be an issue

      • Ice009 on 29/11/2020 - 15:30

        Thanks.

        Would I have to send it back to Kmart, though, as in, pay the postage out of my own pocket? Any idea what the procedure would be if it has a defect or is faulty?

        • Lance Miranda on 29/11/2020 - 16:54

          For a faulty one, I think they'd sort out postage and everything. Not 100% sure tho. For change of mind, you might have to pay.

  • Phreaker on 28/11/2020 - 16:42

    Do we know if this is online only and one day?
    Or can I go to a store on Monday and buy?

    • hollykryten on 28/11/2020 - 16:56

      Don't waste your time going there on Monday and trying to buy it. It states on the web page which you've obviously missed that it's coming soon. There's no stock at Kmart of this monitor yet.

      And it does state that it's only available for sale online. So don't waste your time trying to go in store.

      • Phreaker on 28/11/2020 - 17:06
