I bought one. It was delivered on Thursday. It's a stunning display. Super clear and the colours are bright with deep blacks and almost no backlight bleed. Refresh rate is just enough for gaming. Just remember it's the anti-glare type and not glossy. The monitor is easily worth R3k. I upgraded from a Samsung P2350.

Bought one last Saturday with a R100 voucher and got it the Monday, it's beautiful and for the price I paid you won't get a better monitor, it costs R2599 at Makro.
Just remember Makro is having a one day only tech sale on Monday.
I'll be using as my main monitor at work. Mostly work related usage with some HD youtube and Netflix on the odd occasion. Replacing a square 17inch Acer non HD so this will be a big upgrade. I currently use 2x of the Acers. The Dell will become my primary with 1 Acer either side showing 4x CCTV camera's each. I have a semi...
Going to pull the trigger on the Dell now in case Takealot ups the price overnight.
Thanks for the feedback! Sold my S5 mini yesterday so that is paying for this monitor so I don't feel too miffed about not being able to use App100 on this.

You don't even know how big of an upgrade it will be for you, I went from a 10+ year old 19" Packard Bell and the first time I opened Chrome on the Dell the white Google background almost melted my eyes.
When you get it and you YouTube some 4K video which you set to 1080P and make it full screen you will know you made the right decision.
Awesome! Ordered but they shipping bloody economy so only in my hands on Thursday next week :-/
I can't wait

Depends on the time you placed the order and with which courier company your parcel is with. Example Skynet orders placed on Saturday, will only be delivered Tuesdsy, before this wasn't the case with them..UTI have done deliveries and find them to be unreliable, with regards to FedEx, haven't seen them in a long time.....
Maybe it's the size of the parcel (normally you do opt in for same day delivery )
