Dell S3225QS
Score: 88/100Rankings

The Gigabyte MO32U is a 32-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor that combines OLED-level contrast and vibrant DCI-P3 colors with a 165 Hz refresh rate. It adds productivity-focused features like a built-in KVM switch and extensive ergonomics, though HDR brightness and USB-C power delivery are modest.

The Dell 32 Plus 4K Monitor delivers a large, high-resolution VA panel with a 120 Hz refresh rate, strong color coverage and built-in speakers, while offering a fully adjustable stand and eye-comfort features. It lacks modern USB-C connectivity and some users note a wobbly stand and the typical VA viewing-angle limitations.

Professional reviewers commend the MO32U for delivering OLED-level contrast, vibrant DCI-P3 colors and a blistering 0.03 ms response, making it a strong choice for both gamers and creators. The inclusion of a KVM switch, full ergonomic adjustments and HDMI 2.1 are highlighted as productivity wins, while the 1000-nit HDR peak falls short of the brightest Mini-LED competitors and the port layout is seen as less convenient.
Everyday users rave about the monitor's stunning color pop, true blacks and zero motion blur, noting that it excels for gaming, photo/video editing, and even long-form coding thanks to the pivot and height adjustments. Common complaints revolve around noticeable pixel-shifting, occasional image retention, weak USB-C power delivery, modest speaker volume, and concerns about future-proofing due to the lack of newer bandwidth standards.

Professional reviewers praise the S3225QS for delivering premium-class 4K resolution at a 120 Hz refresh rate, solid color performance and a comfortable ergonomic stand, while noting the VA panel's slower dark-scene response and missing USB-C.
Everyday users rate the monitor highly (average 4.6/5), highlighting the jump to 120 Hz, sharp picture and good speakers, but complain about the wobbly stand and lack of USB-C.
“Colors pop like I've never seen before - blacks are truly black.”

“Pixel shifting is noticeable during static scenes - can be distracting.”

“USB-C power delivery is too weak to charge my laptop.”
