Review on Dell U4320Q UltraSharp Business Warranty: 💻 Flicker-Free, LED, LCD, HD, IPS 4K Monitor by Jeff Hohd

I needed more pixels as I work a lot with large excel spreadsheets, powerpoint presentations, text documents (books) and graphic design (Adobe xd). At the same time, given my middle age, I use progressive lenses, so the display needs to be a bit forgiving to give me more room to zoom in and out as I like. I bought a 32" 4K monitor but found the menus hard to see at native resolution. In other works I would never be able to use full 4k. I was considering a 38" curved screen, but for the price ($1200) I wasn't impressed with the meager pixel boost, especially vertically where you only get 1600 pixels (compare 2160 pixels on a 4k Screen). In the end I bought this Dell U4320Q and I am really happy. The panel is very smooth with no dead pixels, flickering, shadows or issues that I've read about on many other monitors, regardless of manufacturer. At first I thought I made a big mistake! That's a big monitor. But after one day I noticed that my productivity improved noticeably. I use it in native resolution, at a distance of 60-70cm. Menus are legible. The text is fine. I like editing documents at 0% scaling (i.e. no scaling). But when I need to, I roll the mouse wheel while holding CTRL to zoom in, leaving me a whopping 4,000px of space to play with. It's bright enough for the job. I run it with a brightness of 30% (evening) to 50% (bright days). This panel is not bright enough to view corporate media, such as in an office building on a sunny day. But for short-distance home/office use, it's fine. The Dell software makes it very easy to change the brightness and warmth without fiddling with those pesky buttons on the monitor itself. I mostly use the left 2/3 panels (Windows 10). I have a windows taskbar at the top that goes well with the top app menus. This will minimize eye movement. For Apple users, you may find that you have extra eye movement as the app menu is always stuck at the top and the content may be in a window somewhere in the middle of the screen. I usually leave the right 1/3 for help windows, like the file manager windows with files that can be copied to and from them, or the browser running the page I'm looking at while working on a document. In this respect, a large panel is not a problem at all. I do not use multiple computers connected to the monitor at the same time. I hooked up my old Macbook Pro (17" version 2009) running Catalina (hacked). It was perfect and handled 4k at 30Hz plus the laptop's own screen with no issues. In general they are a pleasure to use, they I love seeing all 50-80 slides in a powerpoint deck so I can rearrange them, see a massive amount of excel data, etc! Same goes for viewing a large number of photos on google .!Everything is much faster.I deducted a star because the prices could be more competitive (cheaper) and it's time for Dell to provide a remote (although the Dell software is effective) and the multifunction joystick on the Replacing the monitor instead of using 4-5 buttons that Dell gives a pretty good guarantee on its U-series monitors. An improvement could be adding a slight left and right curve to ease the eyes given the r to protect huge panels. NOTE: My brightness rating is based on using this monitor, not as a display in a corporate lobby, but as a desktop monitor for users.
