Dell U2711

Dell U2711 has better "out-of-box" picture quality than 24-inch U2410 . Most colours are reproduced fairly accurate and the grey tones appear to be very accurate (which means that shadow detailing is good). Colour reproduction can be improved, though. Gamma is a bit too low.
Pros:
  • Picture quality
  • Functionality and inputs
  • Ergonomic adjustability
  • High resolution
  • Shadow detail
  • Viewing angles
  • Blacks
Cons:
  • Response time
  • Price
  • No pivot
  • sRGB not as exact as on U2410
  • Minor Overdrive trailing

Dell UltraSharp U2711 LCD Monitor Review

Dell's UltraSharp U2711 is one of the best performing monitors we've seen; but at $1,049, its price will be prohibitive to some buyers. However, the U2711 earns its high price with incredible performance, a plethora of connection options, and the monitor's piece de resistance, its 2,560×1,440-pixel...

Dell UltraSharp U2711 Review

In the age of full HD, the size of the display plays an as big a role as the quality of the content does. The time of 19-inch monitors being large has now become passe and now one would consider any monitor with a size of 24-inch as average.

I had one unit that got very hot on its own. Dell shipped a new one to me next day, and I shipped my old one back in the box the replacement unit came in. Replaced with a certified refurbished unit. There's not much to complain about here. Great service, great warranty, great product.

I've had two of these monitors from Dell now, and both show problems with colour uniformity. I'm really disappointed, because there's a lot to like about the resolution, clarity, and depth of colours, and there are loads of reviewers and owners raving about it.
Pros:
  • Resolution
Cons:
  • Colour Uniformity

Excellent monitor slow 60Hz great color wide gamut not siutable to everyone

  • Wide viewing angle
  • High res screen
