Review on Dell SE2416HX Screen LED Lit Monitor 23.8", 1920X1080P, HDMI by Rashawn Sorgi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Essentially useless now, good enough while it lasted

It was a pretty good monitor, especially for the price. The keyword was "was". I make a living from photography, so I needed a monitor that could be calibrated, was big enough to have extra workspace, and had good image quality. It fit all of that, and considering the budget, it was a good deal. It has good image quality and I was able to calibrate it (manually) to suit my needs very well. It was an essential part of my workflow. Then the often mentioned nutritional problems began. After about 9 months it started going through the power cycle (off and fast on) without prompts. LISTEN TO REVIEWS IDENTIFYING ENERGY PROBLEMS. For real. Now it's useless as I can only edit about 5 minutes until it repeats and I can't do anything. I am dissatisfied as I am currently working on a shoot and urgently need to buy a new monitor. -_-*If you need a fast monitor for emergencies, buy it. If you want to do something about the quality, don't do it.

Pros
  • 60 Hertz
Cons
  • Color balancing: If the colors on the display are not precisely calibrated, the display can appear washed out or too bright.
