Dell E2414H 24" HD 1920 x 1080 60 Hz D-Sub, DVI-D LCD Monitor

Pros: This monitor is just what I wanted. It replaced a single 27" HP xi IPS display. That was a nice monitor too but the glare drove me nuts. The IPS displays have much better viewing angles but I've noticed they don't do black very well and the HP I had seemed to have a bluish cast to it. It's personal preference but I like these much better. They seem to look more natural and less strain on my eyes. What I Like: -Matte finish frame / stand etc. -- I hate TV's / Monitors with glossy black plastic everywhere. They look cheap and collect dust and scratch very easily. -Matte / No-Glare screen. -- This is typical of most TN displays but I prefer this over the high gloss displays. -Great Presets / Natural picture. -- It just looks good. Colors are vibrant but not overexposed or saturated. I was worried about this being a TN display after a quick calibration the picture looks crisp, clean and natural. I will like these for photo editing better than my HP IPS monitor. Super Easy Setup -- No drivers, no screw drivers. I had both of mine out of the box and up and running in several minutes. Wide Viewing Angles. -- They really are good. TN technology has improved quite a bit and these are clear from most angles. They're not an IPS monitor but I have one straight on and the other to the side at a considerable angle and I have no issues with washout. Fast Refresh -- I do notice that with games and movies there is less "delay" or ghosting vs my IPS monitor. If you're buying for gaming these will be great. Built-In Power Supply -- I was really happy to find out that these monitors don't have a power brick like my HP did. I love that I have one 3-prong cable. It's one less black brick that sits on the floor. Cost -- C'mon a 24" monitor for $149? Even at $199 I think these are a solid buy. They're very simple. Theres not really a whole lot to them. They're really light but I feel that they have a solid design and are built to last. White LED Power Button -- I like it. I'm glad they didn't cheap out and but a green LED or one of those obnoxious bright blue ones. Selectable Inputs -- I have an extended desktop setup for my PC and I use Synergy with my MacBook the rest of the time. I like that I can flip between them easily. I feel like not all monitors have this option.

Cons: What I don't like (there isn't much) Flashing Lights -- As mentioned by another user when the monitors go to standby / sleep the white power LED on the front blinks and this cannot be disabled. My computer does the same thing too so I have three white LEDs flashing randomly across my desk. It's kinda funny actually. No HDMI -- Really not a big deal at all but I think that if Dell is asking $199 for this monitor it should have an HDMI port. Cheap Buttons -- Again not a deal breaker but I would prefer the touch sensitive dimpled buttons like on my HP as these ones are kinda flimsy. But hey they work. Gotta keep cost down somewhere. Switching Inputs -- I love that I have the option, but it's too many steps, Menu >> Settings >> Down >> Input Source >> Enter >> Down >> Select >> Close. I wish there was one button to do it faster.

Overall Review: I'm really very happy with this purchase. It's not an IPS, if you need ultra-wide viewing angles these aren't what you want. If you want a crisp, display with great black levels and minimal eye strain these are a solid purchase. NOTE: Both of my monitors did come with both VGA / DVI Cables I don't know if people just didn't see them or what but mine definitely did come with them. Another user said that you notice the pixels and can see the black lines between them. I have good eyes and I'm picky about this too. My 27" HP was very noticeable and that's why I didn't like it. These don't have that issue at all. Unless maybe you're 6" from the screen.. Just buy it. You know you want it. You won't regret it.

Pros: The screen is very bright, especially next to my old monitor right next to it. The picture quality is nice. Easy to set up. No dead pixels out of the box.

Cons: Only comes with a VGA cable. Not sure why you would send that instead of DVI-D.

Overall Review: All the buttons are on the front, which I like. There is no height adjustment, which I don't care about. For the price it's a pretty decent monitor.

Pros: Easy to unpack and attach stand. Comes with cables. I did not install drivers from CD and it ran just fine. Easy to set up using buttons on bottom right of panel. The picture is very good, with just some slight edge bleeding on the sides.

Cons: The viewing angle is narrow. If I sit 24 inches back from the screen and move my head to any edge of the screen, the opposite side of the screen is already showing some color distortion. I would guess the viewing angle is +/- 45%. If viewing angle is important to you, opt for an IPS type panel.

Overall Review: I would have preferred the wider viewing angle of an IPS type panel, but I found user reviews for the IPS panels I considered that complained that the non-glare coating looked cloudy. Since I mostly sit dead center, I chose the better picture over the wider viewing angle.

Pros: Excellent Value. Works perfectly. The stands aren't height adjustable, but they are angle adjustable. I don't require HDMI and these don't have it. The screen is also matte,(not glossy), which is a definite plus in my book. Exactly what I needed for a great price. So I bought two! I layout design and layout circuit boards for a living and have a large window behind me. Glare isn't a problem. These monitors still look great even at the end of a long day.

Cons: None so far

Pros: i didnt buy this here but i bought it for an extremely low price. 24" screen is a nice upgrade from a 19" one. 1920x1080 is also a nice upgrade from 1440x900. for such a large area(21"x12" area), i have yet to see a dead pixel.

Cons: one of the buttons is a little hard to press. if you tap the side of the monitor, you can see it wiggle so it isnt that sturdy. the only thing that annoys me is that when it goes to "stand-by" mode, the light to the power button just continuously flashes and never turns off and there is no option to turn that off ....there is an option to turn off the light when you ARE using the monitor just not an option to turn off the light when you AREN'T using the monitor.

Overall Review: as you can tell, i hate blinking lights. im not about to go and open up the monitor just to hide the light and i think its stupid to put electric tape on brand new items but that's what I'll probably end up doing. only knocked it one egg because the button thing was upsetting and the blinking light is annoying, i dont care about flimsy stands but other people do so i had to add that. also, its not an IPS monitor so you will find the typical color distortion that you see in all regular non-IPS screens.

Pros: I'm coming from working entirely on laptops, so the biggest pro is the acres and acres of screen space. The colors look good, though blacks are kinda brownish. I'm not a graphical design expert, but it looks as clear and crisp as you'd expect a monitor at this resolution to look.

Cons: Had one stuck pixel when I took it out of the box, though I lightly pressed it and it went away.

Overall Review: At this price point, the monitor performs very well. I recently noticed that the monitor is not quite level. I would've never seen it if it hadn't been for a picture hanging right above it which I know IS level. I'm not certain that it's the monitor and not my desk or my floor, as the discrepancy is fairly small.

Pros: Picked one of these up at the local store when my HDMI adapter died. As a secondary monitor it's not bad. Honestly, a half decent 1080p monitor makes a really good secondary since you can actually do stuff on it. Image quality is good enough for what I use it for (which is basically web browser and nothing else). Good monitor for the price, I suppose. Dark scenes actually look better than on the U2412M (as long as you're staring straight at the monitor).

Cons: Welp. It's 1080p which, per popularity, is the worst resolution of all time. In comparison to the U2412M, it's easy to see why this monitor costs a benny less. Viewable angle is an embarassment, stand is greatly inferior, no USB hub, no Display Port, almost 2" shorter because of crummy resolution. Etc. Again, you're spending a lot less. Can't complain too much. Like the Ultrasharp, there's no HDMI. Luckily, if you're forced into the option for whatever reason, the expensive solution of [monitor > DVI adapter > HDMI cable > PC] does work.

Overall Review: Would be nice if I could just buy the Dell pivot stand.

Pros: Running 3 of these at my desk and they all look great. Price was just right so I've been using these in my standard dual-screen deployments.

Cons: None that I can tell .. maybe a little too bright but that could be me.

Overall Review: Good quality for the price. Will continue buying as long as they are in stock.
