This monitor is 20% off at the moment, making it $279 down from 350, i asked for a further discount via the webchat and got it for $250 (delivered). Pretty good price i think.

It's more ultra than the sharp models.
With the New and Improved Dell Ultra, the whites are whiter and the colours are more vibrant.
Sounds like they washed it in Napisan.
Over the past few years, models from the Ultrasharp series, e.g. U2311H, U2410, U2711, U3011 and a few more utilise higher quality panels such as those from the VA or IPS series. They exhibit better viewing angles and superior colour reproduction to the usual TN panels which the majority of LCD panels you see today use.
It uses an IPS panel:
IPS Panel Technology
S-IPS/H-IPS (In Plane Switching) panels are generally considered the best overall LCD technology for image quality, color accuracy and viewing angles, but this comes at a price. They are well suited for graphics design and other applications which require accurate and consistent color reproduction. S-IPS panels offer the best viewing angles of any current LCD technology, with wide viewing angles up to 178 degress.
did they give you a code to enter or something?
Nope they offered me the price via webchat then had someone call me to complete the order, took them a little while to get the cheaper price approved but i got the confirmation email shortly after
No HDMI?
*
Unfortunatly not on this model, the 24" does, but a DVI to HDMI adapter is the same signal
apologies for my ignorance but what did u say to them that gave u a cheaper price?
u just asked them to give u $250 or just said "give me further disc"?
im considering getting an ultra sharp 24'' from dell website.
thanks :)
I asked what their best price was, and they said $250, they are always open to discounting from what i'v read on whirlpool, so its worth asking :)
A little while ago when this monitor was the full price of $350 i got them down to $280..(but didn't end up buying it) so they have a fair bit of room to move it seems
oh wow! so what ever price u got even after the discount coupon, u just go to their webchat and ask for their best price?? as simple as that?
there was no coupon, there is a current 20% off sale which is applied automatically, i think it ends on thursday.
Yes just go to webchat and ask for the best price, if they dont bring it down tell them you heard someone else got it for that price!
sweet! thanks alot for your advise :)
Trust the specials to come out after I buy the damn thing….. Just a note that this monitor (I have revision A01) has colour bleeding issues and this is noticeable on black backgrounds (Orange bleeds through on the bottom left and blue bleeds through on the bottom right).
I use this monitor for gaming and even though its refresh rate is seemingly slow, it does not affect any games like Black Ops that I can see.
Send it back. Get another.
As its cash off ask in webchat to apply the epp 15% off monitor coupon so the offers stack. Was offered the U2311 for $237. Of course depends on the person you talk to in the chat.
Also was offered the U2711 for $679. Hoping for a tripple setup, two U2311 and a U2711 in the middle :)
I will try and get a recept for you guys, just trying to get a samsung monitor returned before i purchase :)
Just read on whirlpool someone was offered 2 x U2311H for $220 each!
wow, glad i havnt bought them yet then, thanks for this :)
Thanks, got it for $240. I just asked for a discount on web chat.
please excuse my ignorance, but what is an ultrasharp monitor (what makes it different from other dell monitors)?
