The short version
The AW2725DF is a 26.7-inch 2560x1440 QD-OLED rated for 360 Hz over DisplayPort, with 0.03 ms rated response, 99.3% DCI-P3 and DisplayHDR True Black 400. Tom's Hardware gives it a perfect score for motion clarity and color, while TFTCentral finds the 360 Hz gains small and the HDMI port really HDMI 2.0-class. It suits esports and fast single-player gaming on a PC, but console owners and laptop users will find its connectivity limited.

MixedWelcomes the first 360 Hz QD-OLED at this size and notes real if modest motion gains, but concludes Dell fell a little short of making it the best it could be.

Common questions
Is the AW2725DF's HDMI port true HDMI 2.1?
Dell labels it HDMI 2.1, but TFTCentral found it runs at TMDS bandwidth from the HDMI 2.0 generation. Use DisplayPort for 360 Hz, and don't expect full HDMI 2.1 console features.
Can I connect a laptop to the AW2725DF with USB-C?
Not for video. Tom's Hardware lists USB-C among its USB hub ports rather than its video inputs, so use DisplayPort or HDMI for the picture.
