There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I've had the U2715H for a few days, and it's great except for two issues. The luminance (screen brightness) is very uneven. This problem was noted in an in-depth review of the monitor on TFTCentral where it was rated poor in this regard, and I was hoping I'd have better luck. The luminance on the left side of the screen is much lower than the right side of the screen. I've measured it with an accurate light meter, and the luminance on the left is 35 percent lower than the right. This is very noticeable on an image with a solid light colored background. I've seen other comments about this, including on the Dell forums. I'm going to try another sample to see if I have better luck, but one poster on the Dell forums experienced uneven luminance on six samples of the U2715H. Not a good sign.
Dell's policy regarding backlight uniformity is as follows (from the Dell monitor forum FAQs): "Dell monitors do not have 100% backlight uniformity specification. As long as the center 4" circle (7" circle for 27" and larger monitors) meets our manufacturer specifications, it is acceptable." I don't know if this is common in the industry, but this allows for quite non-uniform luminance on the sides of the screen.
The second issue with my monitor may not be the fault of the monitor, but I have seen a few other comments about this. I'm including this in case anyone else has experienced it. The monitor comes with a mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. When I connected the mini DP end to the monitor and the DP end to my graphics card (an ASUS GTX 970 Strix), the monitor at first wouldn't recognize the presence of a signal. This happened with several attempts at reconnecting the cable and rebooting. When I connected the monitor with an HDMI cable, everything worked fine. I reconnected the DP cable and the monitor eventually recognized it. (You need to manually select the correct input in the monitor's on-screen settings, and it stores settings separately for each input.) It worked fine for awhile, but occasionally the monitor wouldn't sense a video signal on system boot requiring several attempts to connect. This only occurred at boot, and if the video signal was recognized it remained connected for the duration of the session.
I've ordered a new DisplayPort cable to see if the included cable is bad. In the meantime, I'm using HDMI which still allows the display of the monitor's full 2560 x 1440 native resolution.
In all other respects, the monitor is quite good. The pixel density is perfect for a 27-inch monitor. Type is very crisp and not too small. The monitor is nice looking with a solid stand. The touch sensitive buttons are a bit of a pain to operate at first until you get the hang of it. The IPS glow is very present, as it is with most IPS monitors. I don't find this to be an issue for most images, but you can clearly see it if you're watching anything in letterbox format, for example.
The poor luminance uniformity, however, has made me deduct two stars from my review. This is a big issue if you work with image editing. It might not be important to you if you use the monitor for gaming. (I do both.) If a replacement monitor is better, I'll follow up with a revised review.
UPDATE March 5, 2015
I received a replacement monitor yesterday and I've added back two stars to the review. The luminance uniformity is much better on this one. It still has lower luminance on the left side of the display, but it's less than a 10 percent difference. It's only detectable using a light meter and isn't noticeable in use. Good enough for me.
The only downside is that the maximum luminance on this panel (at 100 percent brightness) is about 250 cd/m^2. This is less than the specification for this monitor which Dell lists as 350 cd/m^2 (typical) and 280 cd/m^2 (minimum). I'm not too concerned about this since I've set the monitor to 35 percent brightness and I'm getting about 125 cd/m^2 which is plenty bright for my normal usage.
I haven't had the intermittent connectivity for the DisplayPort mentioned in my review of the first monitor, but it's only been two days. I bought a second DisplayPort cable to try out if it happens with the replacement monitor.
Thanks to Amazon for overnighting the replacement monitor. I've been a customer of Amazon since they just sold books because of their great customer service.
UPDATE March 20, 2015
The replacement monitor eventually succumbed to the black screen on boot problem (no signal detected) when connected using DisplayPort. However, it may not be the fault of the monitor. There are lots of posts on the Nvidia forum about the same problem when using other monitors. It may be a handshake issue with the DisplayPort interface, and the GTX 970 and 980 graphics cards seem to be particularly affected. I've read that Nvidia claims to have released an upated BIOS for these cards to address the problem but is leaving it up to each card manufacturer to distribute it. So far, ASUS hasn't provided an updated BIOS but people have reported that EVGA has. For now, I'm back to using HDMI.
After owning the Dell UltraSharp U2715H for a couple of months, I can say this is a fantastic 27inch 2k computer monitor for any minimalist design freak out there.
I absolutely adore this display; The picture quality is great, the viewing angles amazing, the color accuracy is impressive (it comes factory calibrated out of the box), the brightness is very bright (I usually use comfortably at 20% brightness, so it can get very bright), and the design is gorgeous.
I use this monitor with both Windows 10 and Mac OSX El Capitan, and I can tell you it makes both systems look great. This is coming from someone who was using a 24 inch TN 1080p gaming monitor for the past couple of years.. The difference in picture quality monumental. Let's just say I am not planning on buying a TN panel again.
This monitor's IPS display blows my old TN panel out of the water. The colors are sharper, more vivid, and have more depth. I'm not sure about gaming performance (I don't really play much games anymore) but I can tell you the bump up to a larger 27 inch screen feels much more luxurious with lots of space to multitask. If you are reading text all day too (maybe a writer or developer) you will appreciate the sharper picture produced by the 2k pixels this monitor.
The availability of ports is nice as well. One mini-DisplayPort and one regular DisplayPort fits all my needs, and allows me to connect my MacBook Pro Retina via the Thunderbolt port (purchasing the monitor even includes a mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable that suits this need perfectly). Other than that, it has 2 HDMI ports, and a USB 3.0 hub on the back. I use this quite frequently and find it useful, as I connect my keyboard and mouse through there with my desktop tower on the floor next to my desk. The only drawback is that it's not very accessible, it's behind the monitor on the back, and it access it you pretty much have to turn it around so you can see what you are doing.
Now my favorite part: the Design. The virtually borderless design is just amazing. It will make your desk look sleeker, and I enjoy glancing over at it from time to time to enjoy the look of it even when it's off. It really is a beautiful looking monitor, and even the little white glow from the power button gives it a trendy feel (none of that blue or red light nonsense). The stand is also very sturdy, and the swivel actually works, and quite smoothly at that (I know right?). My one qualm is that the function buttons are touch (yuck, I prefer the responsiveness of a click button) and they do NOT light up when you press them. This can make finding the buttons difficult in the dark, I frequently find myself just sliding my finger to the left of the power button to see if I can trigger one of them.
This monitor would be a great purchase for anyone, but I think particularly for those Mac users out there that are looking for an alternative to the Thunderbolt display. It really fits in with the Apple silver and black keys design, and is just a joy to have sitting on your desk.
With it's slick modern look, it looks great whether you are using it or not.
Note: I purchased this monitor initially because of the Wirecutter's favorable review of it: [...]
Top reviews from other countries
The bezels are thin, with tactile buttons, the stand feels solid and plenty of degrees of freedom to move the screen around. Discrete, looks almost like an office monitor, perfect if you don't like all of the "gaming" aesthetic.
The screen is IPS, 2560x1440. Being an IPS, it shows a bit of glow, but nothing of concern even with dark themes. If you want super dark blacks, you'll need to wait for microLED or OLED screens, but it will still take a while. The colors are intense and bright, but luckily the lowest brightness setting is good enough for dark rooms. Not a single bit of PWM flickering even at low brightness. Pixel size is small enough to show crisp text but big enough to use it with 100% UI scaling in Windows and Linux. Movies and games look awesome, and you got plenty of real estate when working with ofimatic apps or browsing.
Of course, if you got more money, you can go for higher end models, but for the prize is a very good monitor. No dead/stuck pixels at all, solid, good looking and a noticeable upgrade from a 24" 1920x1080 monitor.
Vivid and realistic colors.
The only downside at work. HP monitor automatically switches to new device when it detects new input.
This one does not .. so you manually have to go through the menu to switch to the other input.
I use it in a setup with multiple PCs, so the multiple inputs are very helpful in my case, plus it ha audio output, which automatically outputs the sound from the selected video source. So very well thought out.
Pixel response time is not the best I've seen, but for most work like graphics, video or documents this won't matter. Some high end gaming might see slight effects of this, but I do play a few games and in my view this is well worth the other advantages and is not noticeable enough to be an issue.
Wonderful monitor, I would highly recommend it.
