Key Highlights
27-Inch-Class QHD
A 2560 × 1440 resolution delivers crisp detail for gaming, everyday computing and entertainment.
280Hz Refresh Rate
Enjoy fluid motion and responsive gameplay in fast-paced competitive titles when your hardware supports high frame rates.
0.03ms GTG Response
A very fast grey-to-grey response specification helps minimise visible pixel-transition blur.
Quantum Dot OLED
OLED contrast and a wide colour gamut bring depth, vibrancy and visual impact to compatible content.
High-Speed Gaming Performance
The AW2725D is designed for competitive players who value quick reactions and consistent motion clarity. Its 280Hz refresh rate can display up to 280 refreshes per second, provided the graphics card, connection and game output support the required settings.
The 0.03ms GTG response-time specification complements the high refresh rate by helping pixels transition quickly. Together, these characteristics are particularly useful in fast shooters, racing games, esports titles and other games where tracking moving targets matters.
Variable refresh-rate support helps synchronise the monitor with compatible graphics hardware. NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and VESA AdaptiveSync support can help reduce screen tearing and stuttering when configured appropriately.
QD-OLED Visuals and HDR
The Quantum Dot OLED panel combines the contrast characteristics of OLED with quantum-dot colour technology. With a stated 99.3% DCI-P3 colour gamut and support for 1.07 billion colours, the AW2725D is suited to vibrant games, films and colour-rich visual content.
VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 support is designed to improve the presentation of compatible HDR content, with deep blacks and bright highlights. Dell lists typical brightness of 250 cd/m² and peak brightness up to 1000 cd/m² under specified conditions; peak brightness is not the same as full-screen sustained brightness.
The anti-reflective screen surface helps manage reflections, while Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture functions provide options for viewing multiple supported sources. Actual HDR performance and available display modes depend on the content and connected device.
