Dell UltraSharp U3223QE 31.5 4K UHD WLED LCD Monitor - 16:9 - Black, Silver

While it is early days, this monitor does the job. My previous monitor was a Samsung 275T which was an outstanding performer for 15 years of mainly graphics and general office work. This panel only takes up slightly more desk space for a significantly larger screen. Time will tell but so far I am happy with the performance and appearance. Calibration is done at the factory and the results enclosed with the monitor. Colors are well saturated, contract is excellent, brightness at default (75%) settings is more than adequate. Ive not tried the hub I/O or the internal speakers which are low priority for me. If this monitor lasts half as long as my previous one, it will represent good value.

Size, functionality and color accuracy for me was what sound me on this monitor, I’m replacing it with my LG 27inch 4K monitor, that’s still a great monitor, but the size of the Dell was the perfect upgrade. Do I recommend this monitor, 100% I do, is it perfect, it is not, I wish the power button and joystick place was at the back, but is not a deal breaker because of how easily it was to use. I’d say if you have to money go for it!

Make sure your order is being fulfilled and shipped by Amazon. Fantastic monitors (Ordered 2), they feature everything I was expecting. However, Big Box LLC sent me used monitors. Messages to the seller go unanswered, so Ill be returning them since I cant accept receiving used products when it was labeled as new, and especially at this price point, its unacceptable.

I bought a new U3219 during the pandemic. I only used it for ~6 mo total b/c it is in a secondary location. Picture was great, until it developed dead pixels, then the whole screen went bad after 18 mo of ownership, just outside warranty.

I also purchased the 27 version because it was much less money, however, was to much resolution for such a small size. This 31 has the same resolution but is better suited for this size and a 40-hour work week of coding and CAD. I dont game so cant comment on that aspect of use.

My monitor had some minor faults, but the return experience with this seller was absolutely seamless.

This monitor replaced an 27 5K iMac as my primary work monitor. I needed to move from 2 computers into 1 and ended up getting a MacBook Pro and this monitor to replace an iMac and an older MacBook Pro. I would have preferred to get the 32 Apple monitor but I didnt have $5K to spend so this had to suffice. Still a relatively expensive monitor in my opinion. The good stuff; the screen size and resolution is fine enough for viewing at an arms distance on my desk. Its not quite as revealing as my 5K was, but everything looks good, including fine text, so I dont feel like I took a significant step backward on resolution for every day use. The thing has a TON of built-in ports and they all work great! I use almost all of them to connect my peripherals and devices. You forget how many you need until you get a new computer that doesnt have many ports (Apple) and then you feel relieved that you can plug everything you own into the monitor and the Mac sees it immediately! The bad stuff; the screen is matte and reflects sunlight more than my glossy iMac did. I was surprised by how much more sensitive this screen was by comparison. Definitely something to consider if you use the screen in a room with a lot of ambient light. On cloudy days and other times when the ambient light is low, the screen looks fantastic and is easy on my eyes. I also miss having built-in: mic, camera and speakers. I use my new Mac in clamshell mode and not having these basic audio and video functions on the monitor seems like a miss to me. This is not an el-cheopo monitor. My workaround is using my iPhone as the camera and mic and I plugged a small powered speaker into the line out port which works fine for every day sound but I would have preferred if the monitor had these items built-in so I didnt have to figure out the work-arounds. All in all, I would recommend this monitor. I think the pros outweigh the cons and until a more full-featured one comes along this is probably one of the best 32 monitors in the sub $1K price range.

I bought the monitor to use with my windows desktop and MacBook, and the software drivers for the MacBook did not work correctly. Dell support told me that the only laptops that were supported were windows and that no MacBooks of any kind were supported!

As the title says, I ordered and paid for a new one but received one that had been opened and taped shut again. It was noticeable because Dell taped the box closed with one piece of tape in the center. The box I received had that piece of tape in the center cut and two other pieces, each about 1/3rd the length from each end, as shown in the pic. Perhaps this was just an accident but Im rather disappointed in Amazon. It seems safer to order directly from the manufacture instead.

Theres a difference between IPS Glow and Light bleeds. Bezels can change how light bleeds from the edges and mine was pretty bad. I was disappointed to see this but it seems pretty common with Ultrasharp series as they use thinner bezels. I also have 3 x U2723QE that I purchased from Dell directly and I had to go through 2 replacements to receive ones that have minimal bleeds. I bought this 32 inch from Amazon because it is cheaper than buying it from Dell directly but Amazon wont let me do a replacements. I have to return this for full refund, so I am considering a different brand instead going back to this model.
