Amazing, works great since I bought it

Amazing, works great since I bought it. I had some problems at first, but they were false positives. One of them was the screen flickering (this was caused by software issues with the program installed on the monitor, just uninstall and that's it). Then the speaker was quiet too, but that was fixed by setting the speaker to 100%. The monitor is excellent.

Running Ubuntu 16.04 and installed Gnome.

Just got onto this screen, my first 4K and it's just gorgeous! The last screen I bought was a 24" from Best Buy almost 10 years ago, which was also a Dell. Running Ubuntu 16.04 and installed Gnome. Resolution is nice. As a programmer, this screen is great for counting of command lines I can see without hovering over my eyes.Paid $340 for this brand new monitor and am happy with the purchase.Although I shattered it by smashing a glass table it fell 2 feet left and broke I will most likely be…

Excellent choice in my opinion.

It was a very good monitor choice. I'm getting 4K over HDMI and using the 3.5mm audio jack. It just works. Would buy again.

Excellent screen in my review

This monitor is great! it looks classy and is super clear. I can easily run 2 full size apps side by side. I use it as a second screen in addition to the screen on my MS Surface laptop. Together they work fantastic. No complaints.

Great monitor. good for me

The monitor is just great. Plenty of screen space to run a large number of applications simultaneously. It also comes with built-in speakers, and for those who want this caliper's monitor, you probably already have some fantastic speakers. But for the remote observatory where I installed this monitor, they will come in handy. Any other cheaper monitor pales in comparison.

Amazing monitor good for me

This monitor is big and beautiful. I use it as a dual purpose monitor for work and play. I have a DP port that connects to my laptop for work and an HDMI port that connects to my Xbox One. Whenever I'm done and ready to play, it automatically detects when the display was off and switches to the active display, so you don't have to manually change which display you want to use in most cases. while only one is active. Gaming on this monitor is amazing. Very responsive and shows high FPS in Xbox…

Widescreen 4K is a decent picture

This is a widescreen 4K monitor. It was easy to assemble. Does not have a VESA mount. The scope of delivery includes several cables for connection to a PC. I expected the speakers to be louder but they are ok. The picture is bright enough. You'll need to use a Displayport connection if you want 4K at 60Hz. Kids love playing their games in 4K.

This monitor has been working great for a little over a year.

This monitor worked great for a little over a year and then broke. Vertical lines appear on the screen, flashing from top to bottom. Free connection? no Then I tried it on a new machine - still no fun. I contacted Dell but they said my one year warranty expired less than two months ago. They also said if I had bought a more expensive monitor it would have a 3 year warranty. I spent $388 on a budget Dell monitor. I'm only giving it two stars because of the low reliability.

Out of warranty, good for me

The monitor I received was manufactured in 2017 and is therefore not covered by the warranty. After using this monitor for just a month, I started seeing vertical colored lines running across the monitor, so it's useless. Luckily I bought the Asurion warranty so we'll see if I can replace or fix it.

Quality screen but something is missing. Overall good value for money

The screen looks great. Only cons I see so far: 1.) There are multiple HDMI and display ports, which is great, but it lacks a DVI port. 2.) The buttons on the bottom left of the screen are very small and actually hurt my fingers when I press them. I often switch between inputs and this can cause bruising. They work well but are poorly constructed. 3.) The bezel is quite large when working with two screens, but that doesn't really bother me. It would be better with a reduced / zero frame. That's

Very satisfied in my rating

Amazing packaging and used condition. The picture quality is second to none. Depending on the angle from which you look at the display, there is a clear difference in contrast, but this definitely applies to all screens with a TN panel. In general very satisfied with the order.
