> 24 hourThe product (monitor) was fine, was delivered even earlier than expected, but it just wasnt a fit for my system. Great company to buy from and I will order again. Thanks Mike!

> 24 hourI needed a monitor to use vertically for viewing spreadsheets. If you have looked for a monitor to use vertically you know how hard it can be to find one that is wide enough (when vertical) to see see a whole spreadsheet or Word document. Most monitors today are excellent as widescreen when horizontal but are too narrow to use otherwise. This Dell monitor is excellent. When horizontal it has a viewing area that is 10 1/2 high. The stand allows you to move the monitor up and down, tilt in and out, and rotate the screen vertical. Excellent monitor, excellent price. UPDATE!! I just purchased a second one of these monitors because the first one worked out so well. I also realized that I forgot to give the viewable screen dimensions. The viewable area is 18 3/4 wide, 10 1/2 tall, and 21 1/2 on the diagonal.

> 24 hourI have only had these a few months. They are sturdy, good color and can be angled and adjusted on a desk with great ease. Turning your screen to show someone something is easy with this monitor. You can also rotate them 90º and use them for tall spreadsheets or for coding. Great functionality. However, I should have paid attention to the resolution. Not happy with such a low resolution for such a big monitor. I will make the best of it, but wish I had looked better and then picked a different monitor for my main display with a higher resolution and used this as a secondary with the rotating option.

> 24 hourMy company bought one of these for me to use and I liked it so much that I bought a second, identical one. I dont do graphic design, color matching, play games, watch movies, or do anything that either might stress a monitor or require it to have some fancy set of specifications, so I cant tell you that this is the most fabulous monitor you can buy for the price. It is definitely not Brand X, however ... neither in function nor quality. If these models hold up as well as the other DELL monitors I have purchased (five others in the past), they are worth the extra $30 or so above what the cheapest ones cost. As the engineers play with these things and mostly not listen to actual end users, they seem to want to mess with the menu options, purported to improve them. Some menu adjustment interfaces are just downright awkward. The buttons (and what they do) and the menus called up by them on this monitor do not strike me as stupid or inherently unusable. Above average, certainly. Maybe not as flexible as the newer ViewSonic flat panel monitors, but then this monitor is not seriously intended to compete with one that costs twice as much. This is a perfectly serviceable 1920x1080 monitor for home or business use. The Dell AC511 USB Wired SoundBar is designed to attach to this DELL monitor, for which it is perfect in those environments, IMHO. Standard VESA attachment on the back for mounting. Everything you need.

> 24 hourIts been only 4 days of using it but boy am I happy. So happy sitting here using it that even work that I have been neglecting and procrastinating over is getting done. I love the display quality and though i didnt realise I was getting a matte finish and not glossy I have nooooooo regrets matter of fact I think its the better of the two. The ability to rotate the monitor to portrait was THE selling point. It works beautifully though it takes some getting used to. Its also easy to do. With none of the adjustments do you have to press a button or release anything just pull up and down, or twist the base or rotate the display. Calibrating for your preference is great in that you have presets that you can choose from depending on movie, text, standard, etc etc. OR which is soooo cool you can predetermine in what preset you want to use for which ever software you are using so you dont have to manual change. So once I am using a movie player it switches, if I am using my graphic software it switches. Love that!! The only thing I think others might mind but i dont is that it takes up more space that than most monitors today. The face/display itself is thin enough but the way in which it is connected to the stand has such a gap that it takes up space. But its a none issue for me. If any probs turn up will be sure to come back and letcha know but so far......GREAT PRICE AND VALUE FOR MONEY

> 24 hourI got this to replace a different monitor in a dual-screen setup, and to match the other Dell Pro 24 monitor I already have. I thought the one from two years ago was impressive, but this one is even nicer. I especially like the changes made to the cabling and other appearance from the rear of the monitor. The valence panel makes a big difference, as well as moving the USB port(s). At first, I was not sure if I liked that Dell took away the power feed and mounts for a speaker bar, but it is something else that gives the monitor a nicer look. The bezel surround is about the same width as the older one, which also surprised me. These are the type of monitors that are used for multiples quite often, and the bezel is the same width all around, but I would have figured that Dell would reduce this for those of us that use multiples. Performance and overall look of the screen is outstanding. The pixels are tight and accurate, and the monitor handles movement very well. The addition of the Display Port in lieu of HDMI is highly appropriate for this type of monitor, given its intended use. Im SO GLAD to finally ditch at least one of my DVI-D cablings in favor of the Display Port. Regardless, its good to see the VGA and DVI-D interfaces are still there if needed. My only real want or suggestion for the P2414H would be nice to have an external HDMI port available (or mini-DP at the least) for a portable device. My wireless phone will port to HDMI, and it would be a great simple solution rather than keeping an HDMI --> DVI-D adapter plugged into the DVI-D port. Maybe thats incorporated into a newer version already, but I was able to keep costs down with this particular model. .

> 24 hourThis monitor arrive packed simply but really well. Easy to put together and super easy to hook up. I had no idea what I was missing with my old Dell 17 inch monitor that came standard with my computer. This screen is beautiful and slides up and down easily for height adjustments, it also turns side to side for viewing. The screen does not appear to have blind spots where you see the screen but not the image. Havent turned it vertical but am aware I could. My husband thinks its a little too wide but its a matter of getting used to. Colors are brilliant! Great monitor at a really affordable price and free shipping. I love Amazon!

> 24 hourNeeded it for Amiga 500 display, still waiting on an adapter from another vendor. It has great color and I really like the stand as it can do landscape and portrait. The monitor arrived on time and was packaged extremely well. Kudos to the vendor for the packing.

> 24 hourexcellent quality monitors- I bought 2 of them. I use programs with lots of menus so I need the screen real estate. I did a lot of research and found this monitor to be great for graphic design. I have them mounted via brackets together and I am happy. The colors and brightness are nice and vivid. I also like that the screen is matte and not reflective. So when you are in a bright lit room you dont see yourself in the monitor, like a mirror. I have an apple monitor that is reflective and I notice that I prefer the non-reflective displays such as this one.
