    Looks like a good monitor.

    I have two at work plugged into my laptop, they are awesome.

    • lostn on 11/10/2018 - 12:52

      Do you know if the built in scaling supports 1:1?

  • elli0t on 11/10/2018 - 08:44

    I had this monitor for a while thinking I'd prefer the 16:10 ratio. I had it as a secondary in portrait next to a 27" 1440p monitor.
    I couldn't handle the difference in pixel pitch/resolution. It was really bad in comparison.
    I decided to return it for the U2515H (25" 1440p 16:9) which has been great.

    • g12345567 on 11/10/2018 - 09:02

      Same had an older 16:10 tried. Tried 24" but also ended up getting a QHD Dell U2518D (25" 1440p 16:9) and also happy with it.

        Just thought I'd point it out for people that are considering buying this monitor.

        • WhyAmICommenting on 11/10/2018 - 11:39

          I guess if they are adding it as a second monitor, is that the point?

          • [Deactivated] on 11/10/2018 - 12:52

            @WhyAmICommenting: Or a laptop display.

            Basically, Windows does a terrible job of managing displays if the PPI differs. You either get wildly different sizes of widgets, text and screen elements, or you get blurriness from bad scaling.

            Windows can’t dynamically adjust PPI levels on the fly for running apps. So they end up being scaled after being fully rendered when moved off the primary display.

            Just make sure all displays have roughly the same PPI and it’s all good.

            • lostn on 11/10/2018 - 13:31

              @[Deactivated]: I have no problem with my setup. I got 3 monitors of varying PPI. When I drag a window over from one screen to another, they get bigger or smaller, but otherwise contain the same information. If it's a maximised window, it will rescale but otherwise look the same as it would if that was the only monitor I was running.

              • [Deactivated] on 11/10/2018 - 14:26

                @lostn: It sounds like all your monitors have the same zoom level set. That's feasible if they don't have wildly different PPI or if you have good eyesight.

                But I have a laptop and two monitors, each with different zoom levels set in Windows: 100%, 175% and 200%. Dragging monitors around with most apps leads to a blurry mess. Microsoft Outlook handles it especially poorly.

                • lostn on 11/10/2018 - 15:21

                  @[Deactivated]: My monitors do have wildly different ppi. They are 94, 117, and and 163.

                  Laptops of course far exceed these ppi so yeah your problem would be compounded.

                  My scaling is on 100%, which is just right for me.

                  • [Deactivated] on 11/10/2018 - 19:24

                    @lostn: It’s the scaling that does it. But I can’t imagine anyone running at 100% these days with HiDPI monitors.

                    • lostn on 11/10/2018 - 19:27

                      @[Deactivated]: Depends on what you consider to be high dpi. For me that's laptops/tablets only, and only 1800p or 4K laptops. With laptops I don't do multi monitor so it's not an issue.

                      I have a 4K 27" desktop monitor and I do not consider that to be high dpi. So 100% looks fine to me.

                      • [Deactivated] on 11/10/2018 - 21:49

                        @lostn: That’s insane. I’d go blind. I run at 175% on a similar setup.

                        • lostn on 12/10/2018 - 00:28
                          +1

                          @[Deactivated]: For web sites you can just ctrl + mousewheel up to increase the font size without scaling.

                          I think at 175% everything looks huge, and you lose a lot of screen real estate.

    16:10 is amazing.

    • Ostrk on 11/10/2018 - 13:39

      I think 16:10 would be better on laptops but not on monitors.

    • dm01 on 11/10/2018 - 15:31
      +1

      16:10 should be marketed as EHW (Expanded Height Widescreen).

      Then they could also release EWEHW (Extra Wide Expanded Height widescreen) in a special 32:18 aspect ratio - then you'd be getting even more in both directions.

    • GeorgeS on 12/10/2018 - 10:25

      As a software developer, 16:10 is superb. That little bit extra vertically is very useful.

    • woodwa on 12/10/2018 - 21:56

      Yep! Extra height to compensate for ribbon toolbars!

      In the GIS/CAD world all the vertical space is a godsend!

    Just bought! This is Wirecutter's 24-inch monitor recommendation: https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-24-inch-monitor/

    I've been waiting for a good price for this monitor - much appreciated.

  • SS625 on 11/10/2018 - 10:32

    whats the dead pixel policy on these things?

    I recently bought 4 monitors for friends and family and 3/4 had dead pixel, lucky viewsonic has 0 dead pixel so we could return it.

    I have also bought a laptop from Xiaomi and it had a dead pixel, lucky i bought in store and they replaced on the spot.

    Looks like dead pixel is getting more common on high resolution display.

    • fertiliser on 11/10/2018 - 10:39

      It's because there's more of them

    • dm01 on 11/10/2018 - 11:51
      +1

      I think I read on Dell's website they'll replace it if there's a single bright pixel. Don't know about dead ones through.

    • 1bug on 11/10/2018 - 12:39

      For Dell UltraSharp monitors (U, UP, UZ series) with Premium Panel Guarantee, you can get a replacement within the 3-year warranty period for either:

      • 1 or more Bright sub-pixel/s
      • 6 or more Dark sub-pixels

      https://www.dell.com/support/article/au/en/audhs1/sln130145/…

      • lostn on 11/10/2018 - 13:33
        +1

        6 dark pixels is a lot.

        Dell have a 14 day money back guarantee, so I would just use that, and not even mention the DPs.

        But fortunately for me, I've had 6 Dell monitors and 2 Dell laptops and not a single one of them have had a dead/bright pixel.

  • noz on 11/10/2018 - 12:33

    Very good monitor. Order these for work. Never had a complaint.
    Just make sure that your PC supports the inputs. For anyone that has an older PC, this monitor does not have VGA input. When you look up the model on google, the specs on the right says it has VGA, but this is incorrect.

  • Erkel on 11/10/2018 - 13:35

    Does this monitor have a headphone jack (or any type of audio out)? The specs and reviews do not mention this so I'm assuming no.

    • 1bug on 11/10/2018 - 13:46

      From the specs, it has the following Connections:

      2 HDMI(MHL) connector
      1 Mini DisplayPort
      1 DisplayPort (version 1.2)
      1 DisplayPort out (MST)
      1 Audio Line out (connect your speakers)
      5 USB 3.0 ports - Downstream (5 at the back)
      1 USB 3.0 port - Upstream

      The User Guide also states "*Headphone usage is not supported for the audio line out connector"

    The bezels look the same as the U2515H I had. It has capacitive buttons. My experience with that monitor is, the power button is very insensitive. Sometimes I had trouble turning it on. I wasn't the only one with the problem. I really don't like Dell's capacitive buttons. The menu buttons were fine though.

    • 1bug on 11/10/2018 - 13:54
      +1

      Agreed. I don't like the capacitive buttons in general, but they work well on my 3-month old U2415 (how they hold up with wear & tear, I don't know).

      • g12345567 on 12/10/2018 - 12:32

        Same. Had a U2515H for a while with the captive touch buttons. They were annoying. especially the power button. Although there is a tiny bump on the button to indicate where to press. Alot of the time it required multiple presses to turn on and off.

        i find the standard push buttons on the newer U2518D much better. Only thing is the buttons are on the bottom of the screen. You have to hold the side of the screen while pressing them otherwise it will rotate the display.

  • Click_It on 11/10/2018 - 16:42

    I'm tempted to get 2 of these as dual setup.

    I had 2 x 2407's from over 10 years ago, 1 recently died.

    The side bezels are much thinner on the U2415 which would lend itself to a pleasant experience.

    I'm not convinced with the ultrawide alternatives and think 2 x 24's are better for me. Plus I have my current U2407 which could act as a 3rd should it be needed.

    • 1bug on 11/10/2018 - 19:10

      I have my ancient U2407WFP-HC set up in portrait mode next to my U2415. The U2407 is showing its age, especially in terms of brightness and contrast (the LCDs have faded over the years). It's also night & day between the monitors in terms of bezel sizes, thickness and weight.

      • Click_It on 11/10/2018 - 19:13

        How happy are you with the U2415? I was thinking getting a pair of U2412M's but with the price drop on U2415 and their smaller bezels I think it would be a much better experience. Not to mention a superior colour gamut. I think the rest is fairly comparable with them.

        • 1bug on 11/10/2018 - 20:42

          I'm extremely happy with the U2415.
          I also considered the U2412M, but because of the age of the technology, I gave it a miss (even when it was on sale for $194 from the Dell Outlet in April).

          As a 2011 model, the U2412M is limited to DVI-D, DisplayPort & VGA (no HDMI) connectors, and a USB 2.0 hub.
          The U2415 (released in 2014) has a lot more connector options (see my previous comment above), and its USB 3.0 hub comes in handy.

  • jeeg on 11/10/2018 - 21:09

    Great price for this monitor. I have 3 of these connected to my main workstation at home. So far I am pleased with the monitors.

  • snufl on 12/10/2018 - 10:40

    My very old Dell monitor died a few days ago so great timing for me.

  • Sleepycat3 on 14/10/2018 - 15:07

    Bought 1 last year and after using it side by side with my old Samsung TN monitor, it was no comparison. Much brighter, accurate colours and thin bezel. Just bought a 2nd one from this sale!

  • Sambino on 18/10/2018 - 16:53

    What have been people's experiences with Dell shipping from eBay orders (or in general)?

    Either Dell has been very slow in dispatching orders or eBay's estimates are way off…

    • 1bug on 18/10/2018 - 18:07

      I ordered my U2415 direct from Dell in July, and it was delivered to Sydney metro after 3 business days. I suspect that was from their Sydney warehouse.

      During the PDELL20 eBay sale period ~130 units were sold, so I suspect they ran out of local stock and had to ship new stock from their factory (I think it's in Malaysia).

    • dm01 on 19/10/2018 - 06:53

      Also, eBay's shipping time estimates are known for being very optimistic.

    • snufl on 19/10/2018 - 06:56

      I think 1bug is correct, looks like they ran out of local stock.
      I ordered my U2415 last Thursday 11th, eBay estimated delivery 19/10
      Monday 15th, received confirmation from Dell with a link to Dell showing estimated delivery 17/10
      Wednesday 17th, received an order update, the link now showed estimated delivery 24/10
