The Dell G3223Q impressively fulfills the role as a hybrid gaming professional monitor. When I was shopping for a monitor, I was looking for a "no compromises" monitor that could do everything perfect in a non-OLED format, and the G3223Q comes as close as I could find that can meet that criteria.For a 32' 4K high refresh rate panel, the build quality and image quality is exceptionally good compared to the absurdly low standards most IPS monitors are subjected to. Out of the box, Dell did a fantastic job to hide most of the brightness uniformity issues around the edges, unlike LG's UltraGear monitors which suffer horrendously from bad edge brightness uniformity issues. When you look at the edges, it reminds you more of a VA/OLED which is excellent.However, it isn't without its flaws out of the box, just because the edges are more normally lit, doesn't mean there isn't brightness uniformity issues everywhere else. Dell traded one type of non-uniformity for another, as a result, most of the brightness non uniformity extends more towards the center of the monitor. As a result, only a small portion of the center of the monitor is actually at the monitors max brightness. However the brightness gradient is small, so this non-uniformity will only be mostly visible on white text and white backgrounds.HOWEVER, you can fix this by enabling Brightness Uniformity Compensation in the Creator profile's sub-menu. This fixes ALL brightness uniformity issues PERIOD. Enabling this will give you OLED like brightness uniformity. Dell even sends you a calibration factory report that tells you not only the color accuracy, but what level the monitor passed in the brightness uniformity test. Dell's benchmark target is anywhere between 97% and 102% brightness, but my specific model managed to come with a perfect 100% brightness score on every single part of the screen.That said, color accuracy isn't 100% perfect. If you really (and i mean REALLY) pay attention, slight differences in color temperature can be seen on the edges of the screen. At least for my unit. But again, its not bad at all and NOTHING compared to the brightness issues out of the box.The only thing i wish was that brightness compensation mode could be enabled outside of the Creator profile which limits you to sRGB and DCI-P3 color profiles. This means that you loose a bit of contrast and some of the color "pop" that the default mode provides, but its barely an issue if you already want realistic looking color accuracy in the first place.This monitor with its compensation mode is about the best IPS hybrid gaming monitor you'll find in my opinion. As someone who works with white backgrounds and text all day long, this was a top priority for me. I can confidently say with my unit that Dell nailed what it did with this monitor, with compensation mode on mind you. I only knock one star off because the colors aren't perfect, but if I could rate it 4.5 stars I would.Beyond raw image quality, variable refresh rate works phenomenally well on this panel. It works right down to 20Hz and provides virtually no noticeable image flickering. Enabling the Super Fast response time profile also brings down the pixel response times and makes them very good.As for longevity, sadly i have not had this monitor for long, so I cannot say if my unit will live longer than a year before dying. But its worth mentioning that the physical material looks a lot more durable than say LG's Ultragear monitors, and it comes with a 3-year warranty.It completely boggles my mind that we are at a point in time where IPS brightness uniformity issues are prevalent everywhere, and only 1-5% of monitors actually have perfect image quality. This is why people play the "monitor lottery" and return 5-8 monitors just so they can get the "perfect" one.It is completely absurd that we have to live to these low IPS standards. But it is what it is. I complement Dell for their fantastic work on the G3223Q and its ability to work with crappy IPS panels and massage them into something that's close to being perfect.
