Dell P3424WEB 34" Black/Silver

The Dell P3424WEB is a 34-inch ultrawide built around video calls, with a 2K webcam, mics, and speakers built in. It's great for office multitasking but weak on gaming performance at 60Hz. Worth buying if you live on Teams or Zoom, skip it if you want a fast or flashy display.

The panel itself is solid for office use. 3440 x 1440 gives you tons of horizontal space for spreadsheets, code, or three documents side by side. The 3800R curve is gentle, not aggressive, so it feels natural for long work sessions. Color coverage hits 99% sRGB with 1.07 billion colors, which lands it in the top third of our database for color. Brightness is 300 nits, fine for indoor offices but not great near big windows. The weak spot is motion. 60Hz and 5ms response put it in the bottom quarter for performance, so fast-moving content looks soft. The built-in 2K webcam is the real highlight, and it's genuinely good, with IR support for Windows Hello and dual mics that actually cancel background noise.

Stacked against the ASUS ROG Strix XG27UCDMG, LG UltraGear 45GX950A-B, MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2, Samsung Odyssey G60SD, and Gigabyte MO27U2 SA, the Dell loses on raw speed and picture quality. Those competitors are OLED or high-refresh gaming panels with far better motion handling and contrast. But none of them have a built-in webcam, mics, or speakers, and none are Teams or Zoom certified. The Dell is a different tool entirely. It's for work calls and productivity, not gaming or movie nights. If you need a monitor that makes video meetings painless, the Dell wins by default. If you want deep blacks and 240Hz, buy one of the others.

Pricing is all over the place. In the US you'll see USD 711 to USD 850 across three listings, and in Canada it swings from CAD 821 to CAD 1,078. That's a big spread for the same monitor, so shop around before you buy. The best US deal in our data comes from Newegg at the low end of that range. For a 34-inch ultrawide with a genuinely useful built-in webcam and 90W USB-C, the lower end of that range feels fair. At the top end, you're paying a premium for the conferencing features, and you could get a better panel for less if you don't need the camera.

The Dell P3424WEB is a 34-inch ultrawide built for one job: video calls. It packs a 2K webcam, echo-cancelling mics, and speakers right into the frame, so your desk stays clean and your Teams calls actually work without a pile of dongles. The 3440 x 1440 IPS panel is curved, color-accurate enough for office work, and certified for both Teams and Zoom.

But this is not a gaming monitor. 60Hz, 5ms response, and a 22nd percentile performance score tell you everything. If you want smooth motion or HDR that pops, keep scrolling. If you want a conference room monitor that doubles as a productivity beast, this thing is worth a look.

Skip this if you're a gamer or anyone who cares about smooth motion, deep blacks, or bright HDR. The 60Hz panel and 300 nits brightness will frustrate you. Also skip it if you already have a good webcam and mic setup, because you're paying extra for features you don't need. And if you work in a bright room with lots of windows, the mediocre brightness will be a daily annoyance.

Buy this if your workday is full of video calls and you want one clean setup that handles everything. The built-in webcam, mics, and speakers are genuinely useful, and the ultrawide panel is great for multitasking. It's not for gamers, and it's not for anyone who wants a bright, punchy HDR display. But for a home office or conference room, it's a purpose-built tool that does its job well.
