    Found this Dell Ultrathin Monitor S2419HM for €180


    Has HDR10 spec for better colours.

    Do you have regular Xbox One or the S/X model?

    Definitely get the Dell S2419HM so; it supports AMD FreeSync @ 48-75 via HDMI, which the Xbox One S can take advantage of.

    Hmm seems to be 236 euro on the Irish Dell Website https://www.dell.com/en-ie/shop/dell-24-ultrathin-monitor-s2419hm/apd/210-aorb/monitors-monitor-accessories

    Click the chat button and haggle with the sales agent. They will most likely be able to give you a better price than the one listed on the site.
    I did this for my last 3 Dell monitors, and I can always get a good price.

09/06/2018 11:37:59AM	Me: "I would like to acquire a new monitor, the P2418D. The Irish website says 271 euro, but the scan.co.uk site has it for 203 pounds."
09/06/2018 11:38:20AM	Me: "With VAT, shipping and currency conversion, it would be 240 euro from Scan."
09/06/2018 11:40:46AM	Agent (XXXXX): "May I know where is the delivery ?"
09/06/2018 11:40:52AM	Me: "Dublin, Ireland."
09/06/2018 11:44:04AM	Agent (XXXXX): "we cannot compare prices with Ireland and with UK"
09/06/2018 11:44:09AM	Agent (XXXXX): "as these will be different"
09/06/2018 11:45:05AM	Agent (XXXXX): "If you wish to order I can try to get this for 220 euros"
09/06/2018 11:45:48AM	Me: "220 including VAT and shipping?"
09/06/2018 11:46:06AM	Agent (XXXXX): "yes"

    I got two of them.

    Yessir, I sure was looking for a cheap 1440p 60Hz panel for my "office in the attic". Ended up buying two of them, and replacing two 1080p panels for my work Macbook and desktop.
