Dell S2240M Black 21.5" 7ms (GTG) Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor, IPS Panel 250 cd/m2 DC 8,000,000:1 (1000:1)

Pros: Great buy, nothing looks so beautiful, with the glass that goes from edge to edge, looks amazing when off. One of the best monitors out there

Cons: Too many finger prints

Other Thoughts: I have 2 and i am looking to buy another!

Pros: I purchased two of these monitors for my daily use desktop computer. I have used them approximately 2 months and am reporting zero technical difficulties or usage problems. Additionally, the are low profile so they fit well together in a relatively tight space on my desk. Their picture is top quality and latency is low enough not to notice. Their edges are also very thin and I believe this adds to the viewing experience.

Cons: The low profile of this device makes connecting the DVI cable (Rosewill 6ft) a task which requires sensitivity to the integrity of the male DVI connection as not to bend any individual pins. The device also externally regulates power, so there is space consumed by the power cord similar to that consumed by a laptop computer external power supply. Also they require an adapter per monitor to support mounting on tilt or stand mounts.

Other Thoughts: Love these monitors! Fantastic quality for the price. Excellent if you are transitioning from experience with modern Apple displays.

Pros: Excellent image quality.
Great in low-glare corners.
Crisp colors, and just generally sharp.

Cons: I don't know if i can use anti-glare coating on monitors again. Sorry Ultra-Sharps.

One gripe would be that they don't offer a 16:10 S-Series with DVI, it seems.

Other Thoughts: I was extremely surprised by these monitors. I was coming from a dell IN series 20", and was pretty blown away by the brightness, and crispness. Not having an anti-glare coating seems to remove far more distortion between your eyes and the image.

Higher latency on these might turn some off for gaming applications, but if you are aware of that, you probably aren't using one of these anyway...

Pros: Beautifully constructed, does not look/feel cheap.

Cons: This is the third one I had replaced. One had a strong redd-ish tint to it, the other had a yellow tint on one side, and the third has a yellow-cast that is more subtle but definitely visible, especially when you shift to the side just a bit. Unfortunately I noticed it much later than Newegg's 30-day policy. It also defaults to 7200K as it's native white.

Pros: The screen has excellent brightness, color, and viewing angle compared to any of the other 5 or so monitor models I've purchased in the past year for <$150.

Cons: No DVI cable included (and a tight fit for the ones I got)
No HDMI
No vertical rotation
No VESA mount

Other Thoughts: If you don't need to rotate them to portrait mode, these are excellent monitors. You may need to purchase a separate DVI cable, though.

Pros: Great image quality. Tasteful styling. Reasonable price (for an IPS panel.) Low power consumption.

Cons: Not height adjustable. Two DVI-D inputs would be nice. Connecting the video cables in the back is tight.

Other Thoughts: If you have any doubts about how thick/thin the bezel is, check out the Dell website. It shows exactly what the bezel of the monitor looks like

Pros: - Gorgeous IPS display, excellent viewing angles.

- Glossy. If you don't have any lights shining directly on your monitor, glossy is an excellent option - no blurry piece of plastic between you and the content on your screen. If you're used to modern Apple computers, you'll feel right at home.

- Edge-to-edge glass. Wow.

- Rich colors

Cons: - Short stand. Height-adjustable would have been nice, but I guess you can only expect so much at this price-point. The tilt turns out to be fine enough for my needs

- Stand came slightly crooked. Both base and panel sit tilted a few degrees to the left. I confirmed this with a level, just to ensure I wasn't crazy. Not a show-stopper, though, and can be easily remedied.

- Extremely tight fit for video cables. The ports face directly down and the back of the display curves out just a few inches below that. The included VGA cable obviously fit fine, but I could not connect a 3rd party DVI cable I purchased from Newegg. Fortunately, I had a DVI cable laying around with a smaller plastic end and it JUST squeezed in.

Other Thoughts: At the end of the day, a monitor is a success if you don't notice it's there. I was blown away by the panel itself - glossy, rich colors, and crisp content. Once I got past the few annoyances noted above, this monitor slipped seamlessly into my workflow and I frequently forget I'm looking at a consumer-level Dell monitor.

Pros: Works as described, great colors, great price.

Cons: The bezel is a bit thick.

Pros: -Super crisp image
-Glossy display
-Great color
-Deep Blacks
-Price is unbelievable
-The menu to change settings is nice and easy with enough options to get the exact coloring you want, such as RGB control

Cons: Some people complain about the glossy display- yeah it's slightly glossier than say an iMac which would be a con to some, but because it's glossy and doesn't have some thick anti-glare coating the image is incredibly crisp and the display in general looks amazing on a desk (and paired with an iMac)

Other Thoughts: I've seen complaints about a yellowish tint on this display, and yes the standard color settings it comes with has a yellowish tint but you can get rid of that by messing with the RGB settings. Taking down the red and green a little bit helps a lot, atleast for my taste, and my screen is near identical in every way to the iMac it's paired with.

Pros: IPS, cheap, and slim. Looks really nice.

Cons: cheap = cheaply made and flimsy.

I ordered two during black Friday. Tested one that was good so I assume the other one was also. Just opened the 2nd one recently to find a broken screen on the left side (cracked). I cant tell if it was from shipping or factory. The box it came in was in great condition.
