This monitor however is surprisingly not up to Dell's standards. In terms of design is, like other Dell monitors, very elegant. In terms of quality of display, however, it is a bit off. I can see the pixels by eye if I look close! Being a H-series monitor (H=FHD, Full High Definition) one would expect more of this piece of electronic equipment. It is true that now we are used to watch 4K everywhere, even in the screen of a smartphone, so this makes the experience with any non-4K FHD a bit less exciting and sharpens up defects in the screen. I don't feel fully confortable working with this monitor for long hours. For someone that does not plan to use a monitor full-time for work and does not use it for graphics-heavy duties like design, gaming, etc this might be okay for the price, actually quite a good buy.
Update: After some days of use I am happier with the monitor. Although I still think the quality of display could be a bit better.
I have purchased several "refurbed" items from Amazon including the HP/Compaq 8300 Elite Small Form Computer I'm using right now and two Sangen desk top stereo units. So far I haven't been dissappointed. But just in case I bought a Square Trade policy.
This one is super crisp, the most colorful I have seen and I have dozens of computers with big screens a few with dual screens. The picture quality is super vivid and having the minimal edge surround makes it feel more immersive like a phone or high end LED TV. Zero edge is not unique to Dell of course but for the price and color quality, I strongly suggest this one..
Can’t speak to gaming or using it for things needing a high refresh rate. Movies and all other computer activities including graphic design in Adobe Illustrator/PS are stellar.
Another plus is the built in USB hub, that is immensely helpful in avoiding cable clutter. This is especially true with the Macbook with the USB-C ports. I had to just buy a USB C to A adaptor, connect it to the monitor, and have all the peripherals connected to the monitor.
I bought this from the seller KIDA Retail. The warranty has already started from Aug 2018, which the Dell support said they can change. However, the invoice Amazon provides doesn't mention the serial number and product tag. I'm working with them to get this rectified. The only other con is there is no HDMI cable included.
Vertical monitors are a god send for browsing as you can see an entire page without much scrolling so a Landscape and Portrait monitor should be standard for everyone who is doing serious business with their PC, it's 2020 people wake up.
Contents include:
• The monitor & stand parts (easy to assemble, screwdrivers weren't needed)
• UK 3-pin power cable/plug (C13 IEC fitting in monitor side, cable approx 120cm long)
• 1 display-port to display-port cable (170cm long end to end)
• 1 USB type A (PC end) to USB 3.0 type B cable (approx same length as display port cable),
• Installation and help chart (one side of A4) and safety guide
Political:
• Made in China
Ports (same as description obviously):
• Power cable connection IEC C14
• 1 DisplayPort
• 1 HDMI (although HDMI can carry sound, this monitor does not have built in speakers or a headphones port)
• 1 VGA
• 1 USB 3.0 Type B (connects to PC for extending your USB ports only, this is not a touch screen)
• 4 USB type As (for connecting more peripherals,. 2 at the back and 2 at the left side)
Packaging:
• Sometimes people do complain about monitors having dead pixels or backlight bleeding on arrival, so in case you're wondering, they don't use bubble wrap or polystyrene protection, instead they use cardboard folded into protective shapes, but the monitor does feel solid and good quality and as you'll see from my first impression below the monitor worked perfectly.
First impressions...
Very good monitor, good crisp image and backlight looks even across entire screen. The good Lord has ensured I received a unit with no dead pixels so this is a very beautiful monitor. I've rotated my monitor portrait, you can rotate it either clockwise or anticlockwise whichever is more suitable for where you want the cable and buttons to face, (rotating it may make the side USB ports impractically positioned). You have to change orientation in your PC display settings, it does not automatically match the rotation of the monitor (this is standard). The screen face has a flat design that is not inset behind a frame which makes it look a bit more modern and the screen is closer to the edge, useful if you are connecting multiple displays.
Although I'm not using the USB port extension (I positioned monitor too far away and have enough on my PC) I did test it, able to connect my mouse and also charge/tether my phone through it so first impressions seems it's as good as the USB ports in the PC itself. Although the pictures don't show this, the hole in the stand is for threading your cables through, with minimal stretching when rotating the display. As well as rotating landscape/portrait (z-axis) you can also adjust the vertical height and rotate slightly up or down (around x-axis), and the stand arm rotates at the base, (around the y axis).
UPDATE (after a couple of months of usage, I intend to buy another one)
Still works fine after a few months of using the product, no issues. I have the monitor next to my TV which is the main screen, the colours are slightly more vibrant/bright on my TV (games and pictures look more colourful on my TV), although discerning shades of colour is better on the Dell monitor (because my TV doesn't always show distinctions between lighter/darker colours very well). I'm soon going to buy another one of this monitor to replace my TV which is now starting to show dead blotches on the screen and it's spreading, some sort of LCD leprosy.
There are no inbuilt stereo speakers with this model. HDMI cable does not come with this monitor. There is a bit of backlight bleed but I'm not bothered by it. If you are that guy with that perfect standard / paranoid you made a bad purchase, you can go replace it. It's a general problem with most IPS panels. Monitor does need a bit of calibration for optimal colour accuracy. This is not the model which comes with a USB-C port. Also, the model number in title and the description in this page differs - Answered in FAQ. So hopefully you know all that before buying.
My options were originally Dell P2418 (Rs. 24,800 for 1440p on a 24'') - worried about scaling issues and Dell Ultra Sharp U2718Q (Rs. 56,000) - Very expensive. So I decided I'd just settle for Full HD as I'd be mostly using it for programming. For the price, this is a very good monitor.
Having read some of the reviews below, I have to say that my experience with setting up the monitor was altogether positive. Since unboxing I have connected it to multiple devices - Windows SurfacePro for work, Lenovo Ideapad for personal - with the setups between each configuration being different as well (currently connecting one via VGA and the other via HDMI).
Additionally, I'm swapping accessories at least twice daily and making full use of the 4x USB ports built into the monitor. I can confirm that all 4 ports are 100% functional, provided you've connected the upstream USB cable to a USB port on the respective device. A practical example I can offer here being that of the SurfacePro device I use for work; this device features one USB port. For my workstation to operate at ideal efficiency while in 'office mode' requires at least 3 ports.
I think that's about all I can write really. Outstanding monitor. Happy to answer any questions as well.
You are spoilt for choice in this size category of monitors, some of which are significantly cheaper. After room research, I decided I needed the height adjustment - I was then left with a handful. Further research and reviews lead me to purchasing this monitor.
The monitor comes very well packaged and its the first time I've come across a monitor that has been engineered to simply click together - no screws/bolts etc required. Using the supplied power cable, an existing HDMI cable and the supplied USB cable I was off. I recall reading a review on here that said the USB ports don't work - they do for me and have been extremely useful in using additional devices. They are high speed and work without any issues.
The height, swivel and angle adjustments all work very smoothly and allow you to adjust the screen perfectly, it was just what I was expecting.
I was quite amazed by the screen quality and consistency. I opted for a back lit LED monitor in the hopes that the lighting and colour would be even and I was pleasantly surprised this this - it does a great job of spreading even light, colour and sharpness. My laptop has a 4K AMOLED screen so I am used to viewing the finest picture quality which often makes other laptops a bit of a pain to read but I was genuinely pleasantly surprised by this, especially given the price point.
Not only is the screen great quality and consistent, the monitor itself looks great with its thin bezels and space saving footprint. I have been recommending to everybody wanting one!
In favor of Dell:
1. Deeper blacks.
2. Lower IPS glow.
3. More natural looking colors.
4. USB hub (1 upstream, 4 downstream)
5. DisplayPort 1.2 with DP cable included.
6. Better functioning stand. (height, tilt and angle adjustment)
7. Vesa mount compatible.
8. Better calibration out of the box.
9. Lower response time at 6ms vs 14ms on HP.
10. Cleaner cable management (included stand can be used).
11. Lesser color/brightness/contrast shift at extreme angles. (really knit picking at this point)
12. Better build (HP has slight gap between bezel and display as visible in a corner closeup picture)
13. Ever so slightly thinner bezels on Dell.
In favor of HP:
1. Looks sexy as hell. (thinner panel and modern looking stand)
2. Brighter display at 300nits vs 250nits on the Dell.
3. More vibrant colors. (but also less natural, so your choice)
Also in favor of HP (but only if using for Gaming)
4. Higher refresh rate at 75 Hz vs 60 Hz on the Dell (but remember, HP also has worse response time at 14ms vs 6ms on the Dell)
5. AMD FreeSync support.
Conclusion: Things that matter most to me are present on the Dell and hence, more love to Dell but no hate to HP either. You can't go wrong with either.
Purchase: Costed me 14.5K before discounts and brilliant fast delivery by Amazon and ZRPL seller. Thank you!
- Quick and easy to assemble
- Excellent picture quality
- No reflections from the nearby window
- Stays stable on my desk
- Ability to move it up and down - this allows me to place my laptop below my monitor and use both screens when the extra monitor is at the highest possible level
- Ability to tilt it sideways (useful when I read something in Word)
- Sleek and modern design
- Doesn’t take up much space
- Auto power off mode which turns it black like my laptop
The only downside I found is that there isn’t an HDMI cable included, so I had to buy a separate one to connect it to my laptop. I know that it’s difficult to predict what ports users have on the other end, but I think HDMI is pretty standard... Instead there were two other cables included which I don’t use...
A cable is included to provide me with the option to use the 2 USB ports on the side of the screen. I tried using it in the first week, but I found it impractical because sometimes I disconnect my laptop from the screen and in this case I can’t use the wireless mouse and keyboard I have. Also, it’s one less cable to plug and unplug each time! I just don’t think it’s worth the hassle of using the screen ports (2) just so I have 1 extra port...
Overall, I would recommend this monitor!
This is is very nice and handy monitor. It's height and view angle (tilt up and down) is adjustable. You can also tilt it left and right.
Picture quality is good although, I have to say picture quality could be different between different monitors of this same model. I have purchased 2 of these monitors and the pictures off these two monitors have slightly different colors. One is a little darker than the other (please the photo I attached).
I have installed the driver and software from Dell website which allows you to divide your screen into different patterns. This makes it easy to open several windows on one screen and automatically put the them in different places and sizes on your screen. This software is quite handy.
Cons:
You can rotate this monitor and make it vertical. I initially thought when you do this the display also rotates (like your phone) but that's not the case. So rotating the monitor to be vertical it's almost useless since the picture won't rotate and become horizontal!
All in all I recommend this monitor for its picture quality and handyness.
It came with the following cables:
1. USB 3.1 upstream cable.
2. Display Cable and
3. Power Cable.
One thing everyone needs to understand is - we all buy things keeping future in mind and also thinking that the things I can do with it. For. example I would order a monitor thinking that I would play games on it but the real question is am I seriously going to play games or that's just one of the assumptions? Thought this monitor should work flawlessly on games too. It has beaten many monitors in 24 inch category heads down. The build quality is awesome too! I strongly recommend this monitor.
It comes well packaged. Setup was very easy and plugged straight in. Settings on the monitor are easy to navigate and do make a difference to the overall effect.
I love the tilt and height adjustment and the USB ports! Picture quality is noticeably sharp and a vast improvement, for me. And the thin bezel looks fantastic.
Great price as well.
So my review:
Something I haven't seen mentioned about these monitors is the Dell Display Manager, which I find very very good, I have put a screenshot of it in the pictures, It allows you to split your monitors into different grids to quickly put your programs into different fields (drag and drop holding Shift) on the monitor. This feature works on single monitors and multi monitor setups, with individual settings on each monitor. Allows you to quickly change the brightness and contrast of your monitors rather than having to press the buttons on them monitor and click all way through the menus which is absolutely essential if you work on your computer all times of day. you just download it from Dell directly then when your PC is running simply press Ctrl+Shift+D and the window pops up.
The monitors adjustability is amazing. I have literally have had these in every possible position and they always look great.
The Bezel on the monitors is really small (much smaller than the no bezel monitors I've had before) and you can get the monitors very tight and close together with very little gap.
The picture quality is decent, this is still not a UHD monitor so you shouldn't expect it. However i did have these against a Samsung LC27R500FHUXEN 27" Curved Monitor (which broke in a month)and this monitors quality seemed much better to me(I'm no expert on this).
The connectivity is amazing, it offers HDMI type C and type B and comes with the type B cable. For me this was useful on its own, i have loads of HDMI type C cables as its the most common, so to have the type B cable come with this really helped me connect all the monitors without having to buy additional cables.
The USB's are nice my only bug bear is that 2 of the USB ports are on the side of the monitor, so if i want to put my monitor vertical these can end up with the USB's been inaccessible, but you still have access to these ports on the back of the monitor.
The cable management is really nice, i can't see a cable on my desk as the cables are tucked through a hole on the monitor stand and the beam on the monitor stand helps cover them.
If your like me and wanting to get 3 monitors, get the 24" monitors, 27" is too big, and that's coming from a bloke.
The pictures are of the 27" monitors they are exactly the same apart from the obvious.
PS. Sorry for the messy wires at the back in the pictures, but if I can't see them I don't care.
I would have liked a DP port but had HDMI, which I cannot comlain about as a connection to my laptop.
The only downside for me was being given an HDMI to USB cable _ I have no idea what this is intended. Instead I bought an HDMI to HDMI and an HDMI to 'C' cable. It works perfectly. Nice 24" screen _ Love it.
---- Issues but not a problem.
- We have to rotate UI from OS for adjust in vertical display,
- Found issue with dell wireless keyboard & mouse. Usb dongle not working properly with back 2 USBs. But works fine with Wired mouse. For that I have to return my Wireless dell Keyboard & mouse. And bought Amazonbasics keyboard mouse which are also good for speed typing.
Thin edges allow for multiple screens to be used without large breaks in between them.
The
The multiple connections allow for USB devices to be used with the need to run multiple cables back to your device.
The multiple video inputs also allow for switch between multiple devices easily
