Dell P2415Q
Dell U2718Q
- The screen itself, which is most important, looks great, with the excessive brightness of all Dells.
- Beautiful monitor, used for photo editing with photoshop and Lightroom. Very sharp and accurate colours.
- The color testing by Dell provides 99% accuracy.
- Antiglare is easier on the eyes -- this monitor does not come with the glossy image you see in the Macbook Retina Display which I thought would bother me.
- The contrast is absolutely terrible. The whites aren't even close to white very dirty looking.
- Dell has a slightly higher contrast ratio which is great for editing.
- Monitor is factory color calibrated. The U2718Q supports 99.9% sRGB coverage making it a great choice for photo/ video editing.
- The monitor offers many connectivity options including: HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.2, mini DisplayPort, 6 x USB 3.0 ports and an audio out.
- IPS panels display much nicer than older TN style panels.
- IPS delivers better color and allows for a wider viewing angle before distorting the image.
- I've been using this all day, every day, for over six months now. Superb monitor in every way.
- Possibility of rotation in portrait and VESA are amazing features.
- The base is extremely stable - no wobble.
- Really solid build quality. The bezel is plastic, but definitely an improvement over older dell models.
- The stand is a little flimsy and the monitor shakes when my desk moves.
- The Dell stand is much more flexible, even allowing for vertical orientation which is great when doing page layout work, especially posters.
- The stand is height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustable.
- Monitor is really beautifully designed with ultra thin bezels and a premium fit/ finish
- It's the only (affordable) monitor with HDR support.
- Adjustable height, tilt, and rotation via Pivot feature.
- Connection options include mini and standard DisplayPort connectors, plus a pass-through DisplayPort connection for DP1.4 compatible devices. HDMI is also supported with audio.
- There is a line out connector for an optional Dell soundbar attachment.
- Good equipment of ports - a minimal factory sRGB calibration.
- The 4x USB SuperSpeed (3.0) ports come in handy on my desktop.
- The display-port cable provides audio output support, so you can plug your desktop speakers into the Dell Monitor rather than your Macbook and it works perfectly fine.
- Dell has lot of USB ports, including 2 fast charging ports for charging iPhones/iPads etc.
- Lot of connection options. Easy connects to Mac. JUst be sure that your PC has HDMI 2.0 ports.
- Works well out of the box with my 2017 Macbook pro using a USB-C to DisplayPort cable.
- Supported natively by Windows 10 and the older graphics card I'm still using via displayport.
- The "Smart HDR" feature is greyed out in the menu if you don't connect via HDMI.
