    I keep seeing posts like this and initially thinking it's 2 monitors for the price. Then I'm filled with sadness when I realise the truth. :(

      Even with one monitor it's an amazing price, hasn't been this low for a few months now

      I bought one a few weeks ago, couldn't be happier with it!

      • IJustKnowStuff on 15/08/2014 - 08:26

        What's the difference between this and other ~23-24" monitors though? The USB3.0 and other connections aren't really that big of a deal to me.

        • pp_lnp on 15/08/2014 - 08:38

          I had one DELL U2311H and one U2414H on my office desk.
          It's the best monitor I have used.
          Once you have it, you won't look at other monitor any more.

          Portrait mode. It can sit barely 2cm off the desk when swiveled (height is adjustable), if you were to stack a few next to each other its a 2cm border between each screen.

          I picked one up a bit over a month ago to replace two peripheral monitors that I used to browse the internet and to check steam/torrents/music player. Now I can see it all on one screen at a glance with no need to minimise anything. Replacing the two landscape monitors and getting this as a vertical has condensed a metre of screen deskspace into around 35cm.

    • RefusdClassification on 15/08/2014 - 15:43
      +2

      The 16:10 Dell monitors are better but more expensive. It is a more flexible resolution to work with, 16:9 monitors are too short. Also 16:10 resolution is closer to the aspect ratio found in books, so if you read PDFs or comics on your computer, or look at a lot of images, the 16:10 is a better choice.

      • Capone on 19/08/2014 - 13:25

        I always hear benefits of the 16:10 aspect ratio, yet manufactuers moved away from it. Why is that? Never-the-less I have 3 16:10 monitors.

  • Desertsyd on 15/08/2014 - 09:13

  • Max999 on 15/08/2014 - 09:22

    I know little about monitor. So if i have a dell monitor with 1080p from 4 years ago how is this one a step up? considering they r both 1080p, though this one has slimmer borders.

    extra usb ports are nice but its the screen im more interested.

  • cookie_lu on 15/08/2014 - 09:24

    Can you span over dual monitors for full screen gaming with proper bezel? For Windows. Either nvidia or mad gpu. Or do you need min of 3 monitors?

    • SuperMatty on 15/08/2014 - 09:47
      +1

      You can run dual-monitor setups, but I think for most games it's not really worthwhile. Even if your monitors have thin bezels, the split will be right down the centre of the viewing area - if it's a first-person game, this is exactly where your centre of vision / crosshairs would normally be, and it's fairly distracting.

      • Utopian on 15/08/2014 - 13:15

        Exactly. The concept is always dangling a carrot I never got. It kills me to make a compromise… dual or one BIG screen. Still sticking with dual, for productivity.

          FWIW, Dell actually uses LG panels in their monitors, so there should really be no difference in quality between the displays.

    I got a few of these for work last time round, they are nice monitors but be aware they do not have a DVI input, display port/miniDP/2xhdmi only. I ran into problems trying to run two of them off a laptop docking station using display port and a dvi-DP adaptor, would not recognise the screen running off the adapter.

        Two in portrait would look the best, since the top bezel is the slimmest and you can rotate the display so those edges are touching. If you have three, at least one thick bezel w/ Dell logo will be in between the displays, which I'd find annoying, personally.

    Guys have a look at the dimensions given under specifications on the website. The dimensions without stand are incorrect - actually an 18" monitor is bigger.

    • watty on 15/08/2014 - 14:10

      8 ms response time isn't the best out there (compared to BenQ MLG screen 1ms - $200). But if you are the average gamer (better and brighter display), this is fine for gaming. It really comes down to the user and if you mind the 7ms difference.

    • ramsheed on 15/08/2014 - 14:32

      • ProspectiveDarkness on 15/08/2014 - 14:57

        Depends what games you play, really. Twitch shooters and competitive FPS? Really not ideal. RPG's, RTS, third person shooters and some FPS? It does the job just fine. Depends a lot on the person as well.

    • shazmeister on 15/08/2014 - 18:36

      I'm running this off a MBP right now. Bought it back in Feb for $286. This is an even better price. Damn! I'm seriously contemplating getting another!!! I use it mainly in clamshell mode, for audio editing & some video editing. Colours and black levels are excellent, really sharp and vivid that its incomparable to the old piece-of-cr@p Sammy I was using before. Thin bezels gives it a nice minimal look. Its IPS, so colours look amazing even before calibration. Best thing about Dell is their warranty. You can't go wrong with this price.

      • alphaomega on 18/08/2014 - 08:45

        Do you know what you need to run 2 of these side by side? There's only one HDMI output on the MBP. Can you run 3 side by side?

        • ProspectiveDarkness on 18/08/2014 - 10:35

          Thunderbolt (Mini DisplayPort) to DisplayPort. I don't think you can run 3 though, even if you have a HDMI and two Thunderbolt ports.

        • alphaomega on 18/08/2014 - 10:44

          Do you think I can run 1xThunderbolt & 1xHDMI, that way I can leave a Thunderbolt free for other things? Thanks again.

        • ProspectiveDarkness on 18/08/2014 - 10:51

          @alphaomega:

          I think that should work. As I understand it, the HDMI port and one of the Thunderbolt ports share the same output, hence why you can't run three monitors off each of them. Using the TB as an input should be fine, I think. Don't have a Mac and haven't done any research, so I can't be sure.

  • scottb721 on 15/08/2014 - 20:27

      • Matte coating (Dell) vs glossy (Samsung)
      • 8ms response time (Dell) vs quoted 5ms (Samsung) - couldn't find any reviews, so I can't verify the Samsung's.

      • VESA compatible vs non VESA compatible
      • HDMI, DisplayPort, MiniDisplayPort vs HDMI

      The Samsung uses PLS, which is for all intents and purposes, the same as IPS. Both have the same quoted brightness level. Both have the same resolution, and virtually the same physical size. I couldn't find any reliable reviews for the Samsung, so I can't speak for it's colour reproduction or anything versus the Dell. Both have pretty small bezels and both have pretty nice looking casing.

  • gabicava83 on 18/08/2014 - 16:31

    I want to daisy chain a couple of this on my late mac mini, however, unfortunately the dell sales person was unable to fully understand the issue. Having researched a bit more, it seems daisy chaining isn't an option and there are some issues in using one via HDMI and the other via the DP.

    Tried to get some additional discount over the phone but there was no movement.

    • Haulien on 19/08/2014 - 12:07

      I'm not sure if any mac/your model of mac supports DisplayPort 1.2, however, with a 780 Ti on a computer I recently built, I got 2 of these to daisy chain fine.

      Though I got them to daisy chain fine, I couldn't manage to get consistent results with the mini-DP to DP cables that came with it. They'd take forever to "trick" the monitors out of power saving mode and for windows to recognise them as 2 separate monitors. And even when windows saw both, there was considerable input lag. When i'd turn one off (even if it was the last in the link), you'd need to jump through hoops for it to work again.

      My solution to this was buying some full-sized DP cables a few days ago, plugged them in, enabled DP 1.2 like I did before, and so far, absolutely no hiccups as described before.

      TL;DR version: daisy chaining these work, I just had no luck doing so with the stock cables.
