    Possible to have the eBay price the same as this?

    • I'm keen to pull the trigger on two of these just waiting on the ebay shop to update price.

      • +3

        Won’t be coming on eBay anytime soon. If peace of mind is your concern, then returns are easier via us direct.

        • +16

          I suspect they're more interested in the 17% discount code on ebay ;)

    UltraSharp

    Good thing it isn’t a touch screen then.

    • +18

      60 Hz

      That's a lot of hurts too

    Nice biggish screen for WFH. These have an inbuilt KVM so you can toggle between your work and home computer, which is good for keep your personal stuff away from your work stuff.

    • I have a dell with inbuilt KVM. It's absolute rubbish on so many levels.

    • I have this monitor, how does one get KVM working on it. Just googled what kvm is.

      • +3

        It's a bit tricky to explain so have a look at the manual here: https://dl.dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_display_proj…

        You might have your laptop on the USB3 port and a desktop on HDMI. Keyboard and mouse in one of the USB2 ports. Then there some settings in the menu to do so KB+mouse can be used by each computer.

        The USB3 should be, I believe, be a 'single cord' which does video, sound, KB/mouse and charge the laptop battery. That is what I use on my 38" for laptops. I have had three laptops plugged into my 38" for a few months, earlier this year, and it all worked.

        • Much appreciated. Thanks

  • +10

    These were released in 2015

    • whats important is the manf. date. i wonder if op would be willing to tell us what month range they were made in?

      • +5

        We usually get varying manf. dates. Usually 2015 to 2018. Majority of them are 2017-2018. Irrespective of the year, usage hour usually have been in similar range

        • +6

          Thanks for sharing. Anyone considering you should also subtract 2-3 years from age as it is likely businesses were shut down during COVID so these monitors sat unused in that time.

          • +4

            @hippo2s: I have a personal one of these that’s I bought probably from 2015-2016. Still going great like the day I bought it. KVM to swap between PC / Macbook is handy. You can assign the two upstream USB connections to any input. It’s IPS but only 60Hz. I’ve never used a high refresh rate monitor for gaming and it’s never bothered me.

          • +3

            @hippo2s: I don't think that's a safe assumption, these monitors in a business environment would have had a productivity or necessity business case in place to procure them over a standard monitor, from my experience when everyone switched to WFH a lot of staff got approval to take these larger/nicer monitors home.

            • @howcan: fair enough counter argument, guess we'll never know.

              my work place didn't let us take the monitors, they are arm mounted (sounds like these ones were too, since default is no stand, you pay extra for an aftermarket one) - so even if you took them off you can't mount it at home, unless of course you take the arm too. Hence my suggestion.

        • What's a rough idea for usage hours?

      • +2

        What's important is USB C in this day

    • +1

      I bought one of these for the home office and its been great. Some of these were installed and then not used during the Covid shutdown. For $200, its a no-brainer.

  • 3440 x 1440

    Will i downgrade or upgrade coming from 32" 4K? Not gaming

    • It will be wider but less tall and less sharp

    • downgrade in PPI but these are great for split screen work. Cant really compare it to a 32inch, normally people who are looking to buy a 34inch arent tossing up between that and a 32inch

    • is your monitor from 2015? is so then maybe it would be an upgrade lol

      ultra widescreen is better for gaming, not general computing or media consumption

      • The famous phillip we see often posted here $200ish

      • Mine is from 2007 :)

    • Downgrade in resolution, increase in screen size.

      3840 x 2160(4K) to 3440 x 1440 (QHD UW) but 32" to 34".

    • +21

      They come in 34-inch dell monitor boxes. Shipped close to 1000 units last year

      • +2

        Legit curious - how do you get the boxes? Everywhere I’ve worked chucks out packages for stuff like this

        • Boxes were most likely arranged separately

      • +2

        Will you be updating the price on your eBay store listing for this item?

        • +1

          Waiting on this too - would much rather buy through ebay

  • No stand but comes with a stand?

    • Monitor with versa stand is $249

  • Currently using a Kogan 32 curved VA panel for both gaming and working (more working than gaming at the moment sadly) - the price is right, but is it worth the upgrade? Kogan panel is 75hz and I feel like I would notice

  • +3

    Excellent monitor. Had bought it new for around $600 a couple of years back and been using it daily since then. Great sharp screen and the Dell Display Manager is really cool to manage windows.

    For a typical WFH setup, this would easily fit 3 windows side by side without compromising real estate required to work (for example, Outlook-Teams-Excel is a typical setup).

    • +10

      If you haven’t installed PowerToys and used the fancy zones feature you’re missing out.

      Getting A - AZ onscreen in excel is 👌

      • +1

        Cant install that on work laptop….

        • you can, the non-admin way to install it is through powershell. I have it on my work laptop and it has crazy restrictions.

          • +16

            @corkddd: If you have access to powershell then you don’t have “crazy” restrictions imo

            • +4

              @ujwols: fair point. my mistake - didnt know powershell was usually blocked. Sorry!!

  • -1

    would this be good for an 8 channel NVR?

  • Do these come with HDMI/DP cables?

    Anyone know how these are for photo editing? Coming from a U2711 and U3011, I noticed the colour specs don't seem to be as good?

  • Good price for the great quality monitor. I bought 3 during covid, been using them daily.

    • +1

      @trungtily
      3 stacks??? In which way? Photo please…

    • Wondering how is your setup too.

  • +4

    Does 'Excellent Condition' still mean that these units have no scratches or dead pixels on the screen?

    • I want to know too

    • I’ve bought these from different shop under excellent condition, usually means no functional defects and minimal aesthetic defects such as scratches or dents on stand / elsewhere. The ones that I got had some corned bumps on the stand but it did not concern me as I use a gas lift. Ymmv ofcourse :-)

      I would not pay a cent for anything with functional defect such software glitches or dead pixels

    • +6

      Yes, no scratches or dead pixels. Only the casing may have scratches

      • awesome ordered 2 of the back of this statement.

        Question - there wasn't an option to select the type of shipping when I checked out. I am hoping Australia post is so if it arrives it goes tto the post office if we're not home?

        Also bit of feedback.. shopify website your using seems to have serious UX problems, couldn't add an address it keeps going into loops sending out email authentication then won't let me update the address but was able to add the address on checkout so at least got order in. :)

  • +6

    The stand that is include for an extra $30, is it generic or the original dell stand?

  • But they are no selling the stand, please use your hand!

  • I'm looking for a cost effective WFH monitor to replace the laptop screen +27inch monitor setup that i have.

    I was looking at the MSI PRO MP341CQ and think i would still get it ovwr this. Besides beind a VA, the refresh rate, contrast and some other things seem better on the MSI, and its new. Just $100 more than this. Or is that overkill when this would work fine?

    • +1

      you need to look at a VA and then make a decision, I can't live with VA at any refresh rate

      • Yeah I've only had IPS so I'll take the plunge on one of these. Thanks!

  • I have one of these and have recently upgraded to a U3425WE.

    First up, this is an excellent monitor that I have owned since 2015. I tried some newer VA's and they are just not as good (if you're interested search my posts and I have posted rants on this website about my experience).

    Given the U3425WE cost me just over 1100 bucks, I think this is decent value. There wasn't a whole heap of difference outside of 120hz and better blacks..

    • Given the U3425WE cost me just over 1100 bucks

      From where did you get it for just over 1100? Or was it during dell's sale period

      • Got it from the outlet. Was a 'refurb'…most likely a return

  • This or S3422DWG? hmmm

    • +1

      Depends on your use case. the S34 will have a higher refresh rate which is better for gaming, but I thought VA's look terribly washed out (I bought and returned the USB C variant, and was coming from a U3415W).

      There's a reason why VA's are cheap

    • Very different target audience…

    • I use the S34 for WFH and have no complaints

    • Is there a S3422DWG for similar price? can you link to it please.

  • @untech could you advise if this has kvm support or not? Thanks!

    • +6

      There are two comments already on this post confirming it does.
      A google search of "U3415W kvm" would give you the user manual as the first result highlighting that it has KVM support.

  • OP, I’m guessing these were the ones that were pulled from MediBank a few weeks ago.

    • +1

      huh? any news link about it?

    • +1

      why does this matter?

  • damn so tempted but no way my desk will fit 32" + 27", plus this 34"

    • if you can't go horizontal, go vertical!

    • curious to know why you'd need such giant screen space.

      • +1

        my work requires me to have multiples excel, pdf, doc and then couple inhouse software and then team app and outlook and browser (for look up some data, not facebook). i can keep minimising and maximising each time but i will be making mistake when transferring numbers (in 6 digits) across.
        so i need them visible all the time if possible. as many as i can fit.

        • -2

          I see.
          Instead of minimising problem have you tried using multiple desktops instead?
          I found it to be equally or more productive than having multiple monitors instead.

          • +1

            @kaleidoscope: cant.. my point is having as many excel doc pdf open in foreground it will increase my productivity and reduce mistakes. imagine you need to transfer numbers from a list of 100 rows in excel to a system one by one at certain order, at the same time referring to a manual and read email instructions and few other pdf with other information that need to go in together with those numbers

            hundreds multiple desktop wont help as i still need to bring desktop A up, then minimise it, bring B up, back to A….then to C

        • Consider getting 15.6 inch touch screen portable monitors, they'll fit underneath your main screen and it's far easier than alt tabbing or scrolling. I use mine for notes, so the touch screen let's me navigate to the correct line quickly, while my work laptop's touch screen is used for teams.

          Currently rocking 2 screens + portable touch screen + laptop screen with this set up in a 1.2m X 0.6m desk

  • I bought this for $1,244 in 2015, and it's still going strong. The only issue I've noticed is some slight shadow trails on bright colors, but I don't often notice them since I use a dark theme. It usually only becomes noticeable when I'm updating Windows, which has a full blue background. The price is great, and I'd love to get another one, but I've run out of desk space, and it doesn't seem like there's a monitor arm that fits this size.

    • +1

      Had this monitor since 2015/16. I bought refurb for about $650 from Dell Outlet. It was once of the best monitors imo, for the period, until now, since there are so many more options in terms of panel types and refresh rates.

      It's had a few hiccups but since then it's resolved itself, could be the device I connected it to.

      It's an awesome productivity monitor and a decent gaming monitor despite it being 60hz. For competitive games, it's' okay but would not recommend it considering you will be up against people with 144hz. There's also a small amount of ghosting.

      Colour is awesome. Screen Real estate is great, although for coding, I think, for it's height, should be a bit taller like a standard 32"

      If you're happy to get an old old monitor model, it'll serve you well. but imo it's probably better to invest in something a little more modern, since this is the main component you'll be actually looking at

      • In addition the ports on this thing are plenty. I would also get the newer version of this as the touch buttons make it slower to navigate as there’s a very slight delay in between presses.

    Buy first. Regret late ozbargain way.

    • buy first
      regret when arrive
      cry a week later
      forget a month later
      repeat from top

  • This one don't have UBC alt-mode?

  • Seriously considering buying one to replace the two screens I have at work. When using a screen like this how do you manage screen space? I.e. now I simply have Email/Teams open on one screen and everything else open on the other screen. Is there a way to "split" the 34" screen to make it seem like you have two screens. Would the 34" be enough or should I look at something bigger again?

  • Anyone have a link to a suitably bargain stand?

    • the one you can buy with the monitor in this deal? unless you are after table bracket ones. I use kogan ones, but make sure I got the ones without gas, just simple brackets and pivots. They will never sag.
