Outside of gaming segment, monitors are usually a monotonous category in which models that push the boundaries are a rare occurrence. Dell U2724DE we got to test is one of those special monitors, which offers all-around improvements significant enough to make you think about upgrading from your current work/productivity/design monitor. Take a look at what it has to offer in our in-depth review.

Don’t forget. Dell’s advance exchange service in case your monitor gets busted within the 3 year limited warranty is a godsend. The peace of mind alone is a huge plus.

Great review. I got the U2724D model, but I'm unable to find the best settings under custom colors. DO you have an ICC profile or a link to the best settings to get the most out of the monitor? I'm using the Display P3 profile

@cuerex8580 Ай бұрын

Dude, that's like asking if a radio tuner does make your car drive faster 😂 obviously ICC profiles have no relation to make a display gooder. You have to buy a colorimeter and tune yourself in case you mean to get the most accurate picture.. ICC is color and contrast management and every monitor acts it's own way. Hence they get delivered with unique calibration display checkups in case you wondered.

Thank you for the review! Could you advise me on which monitor to choose for graphic design (corporate identity, branding production): the hero of this review or ASUS ProArt PA278CGV? Because it is a very tight choice, Dell has an auto-brightness adjustment (most of all I won't use the auto color temperature feature), a higher contrast ratio and a more appealing (for me personally) design but needs calibration to achieve high color precision. On the other hand, Asus has Calman certification from the box and as I understand from tests a few percent more of Adobe RGB coverage. But... I can't figure out if those few percent worth all cons of ASUS.

@BenchHouse 2 ай бұрын

Sorry for the late reply. Factory calibration for color critical work is a good starting point, but can vary with ambient conditions, so it is definitely a good idea to get even a cheap calibrator and recheck every few weeks. Therefore, Dell + calibration device would be a much better option than relying on Calman certification.

One thing I hate about Dell monitors is that white background appears yellowish due to their built-in antiglare Comfortview. I switched it to LG 27up850 and the white looks so much better on it.

I own the predecessor S2721DS, solid monitor, but wonder if this latest one suffers the same issue I had connecting to my Macbook Pro M1 - color defaults to YpRpBp when using HDMI 2.0. Had to buy a dedicated USB C to DP 1.2 cable, which thankfully defaults to the correct RGB color.

Anyone serious about content creation definitely needs at least a 4k display.

@duffmanis1337 3 ай бұрын

entirely depends. i am downgrading from a 27 inch 4k to this one and do quite a lot of web dev. scaling is an important factor to consider and 1440p at 100% beats 4k at 150% in most use cases. 5k at reasonable prices to run at even 200% scaling for the real estate of 1440p is still a few years away and would be the best of both worlds but for now you have to go 42 inch to run 4k at 100% (tried it) which is way too big and strains your eyes a lot. higher resolution does not equal a better display.

@drdreel5559 3 ай бұрын

Really depends. In photography, for instance, high quality screens at both high and low resolutions are useful depending on what, exactly, you're doing. For precision retouching a 4K screen that fits on your desk is actually the opposite of helpful. The pixels are too small. It might help to have a second screen that's higher resolution. Also, in the pro photography world, even a QHD 27 inch screen can set you back 2K for the best colour reproduction models (see EIZO monitors).
