Dell Ultrasharp U2711 Monitor Review

Dell's UltraSharp U2711 is among the most expensive monitors review at www.techtist.com and two of the best performing monitors we have seen; but at $1,049, its price will be prohibitive to some buyers.

The 27-inch Dell UltraSharp U2711 is a lot like a larger version of the U2410 Dell launched a few weeks ago - in fact, is larger than 3 inches, at least for the screen. Like the U2410, the U2711 has a matt black chassis with a touch of gray light that passes through the center of the panel. The panel is 1.75 inches deep, however, the back of the screen - which houses the backlight, connection options and ventilation system - extends another 1.5 inches, which the depth of full-screen monitor to about 3.4 inches. The width of the panel measures 25.4 inches long and the surface of the screen itself is a bit dull, matte and smooth. The bezel measures 0.8 inches long everywhere.

His foot rectangular pedestal measures about 12.5 inches wide by 7.8 inches deep. When called to the sides, U2711 swayed more than the U2410 did. In the U2410, Wade was virtually nonexistent. With the altitude of the screen at its lowest level, the distance from the bottom of the bevel on the desktop 1. 7 inches, and at its highest is 5.1 inches. The panel rotates about 70 degrees to the left and right and tilts 25 degrees backward. The panel can be unscrewed and VESA mount support (style) on the wall. Unfortunately, no portrait mode, unlike the U2410.

Dell includes a plethora of video options for U2711, all located in the back, such as VGA, HDMI, DisplayPort, Component, Composite, and two DVI ports. S-Video is the only link is missing, originally included in the 2408WFP. Also included are two downstream USB ports, an upstream port, an audio output port and a port of the speakers. Access to these connections was quite easy, we are only hampered by the lack of a pivot function in the monitor. On the left side panel intermediate two additional USB ports and a port card reader supports xD-Picture Card, MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital and Sony Memory Sticks.

The next screen display the Dell label-free design seen in many recent Dell monitors. Five buttons line the bottom right corner of the frame. Pressing either button brings up the OSD, which is parallel to the array of buttons, and each option corresponds to one of four buttons. Once a new menu appears, the function button changes dynamically, as the top two buttons become the up and down arrow buttons used to navigate through the menu of new view. Since any labels for the OSD buttons are actually on the screen (instead of on the bezel), calibration of the screen in a darkened room is easy.

The OSD buttons U2410 Dell has low sensitivity, which is sometimes necessary to push them harder than what we consider normal. The U2711 does not have this problem, as the appropriate response buttons.

Its OSD menu options include the level of brightness, contrast, and different color options. The presets are divided into two categories: Graphics and video. Graphics There are six presets to choose from: standard, multimedia, games, hot, cool, Adobe RGB, sRGB, and Custom. Your video presets are: Movie, Game and Wildlife. The presets do not change anything but the balance of red, green and blue, therefore, how well each institution is subjective. There are options to adjust the hue, sharpness and color saturation as well as additional options to configure the OSD to remain on screen until a minute (useful for anyone who will spend a good amount of time for calibration).
