Review on Dell U2720QM UltraSharp Ultra Thin DisplayPort 60Hz: A High-Performance 4K Monitor by Charles Waller

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I wish I had seen this before (1xDisplayPort 1xUSB-C as DisplayPort 1xHDMI) at my work/playback/TV

This U2720QM model is great for my dual laptop/single monitor setup, although I wish it was 2xDisplayPort instead of USB-C, but for now it looks like the PC industry is moving towards USB-C /Thunderbolt 3/4 move. My employer is suggesting to work from home all the time as I recently decided to find a solution. Both of my laptop systems are each tuned to their own OWC Thunderbolt3 docking stations, which only support video output via USB-C or via Mini-DisplayPort. The other remaining 1xHDMI port was perfect for my Android TV box. Pros: * This monitor partially supports KVM switching via the "Dell Display Manager" app for Windows 10. Cons: * This model does not support KVM for USB device sharing, so you need a mouse/keyboard with a additional Bluetooth connection to your other system via Bluetooth. * It will be a little annoying when you start switching between the two systems, you have to switch your keyboard and mouse separately to sync them with your active monitor input source. (Today I still haven't found a reliable/stable USB sharing hub KVM switch) Summary: *New USB-C computers have an alternate DisplayPort output (D mark next to it), consumers should read this feature to make sure adapt to change the promotion to the front. *Browsing the Amazon website, I find that many photos are blurry when looking at the product thumbnails while scrolling up and down, as the images move while scrolling. It may be my age and my eyesight, but I'm getting used to it.
