While it does not excel in any aspect, the Dell P2217H has enough versatility to be a decent general purpose monitor. It features good picture quality and excellent connectivity, combined with an impressive range of ergonomic adjustments. The monitor is also suitable for occasional, non-competitive gaming since its input lag and pixel response time are low enough to grant reasonably smooth and responsive gaming experience. See More
You need to calibrate this monitor to achieve the best color accuracy. Fortunately, the calibration procedure of the Dell P2217H is straightforward, and all the ICC color profiles are available on the Internet. You won't need any specialized equipment to calibrate the Dell P2217H. See More
The Dell P2217H offers good gaming experience for a general purpose display in this price range because of its reasonably low input lag and good motion handling capabilities. The monitor feels responsive because of its input lag of 9.8 ms. Only the gaming monitors in this price range outperform such result. The motion looks reasonably clear because only tiny traces follow fast-moving objects on the screen. Such smoothness of motion is produced as the monitor's pixels need only six milliseconds to change their color, which reduces the motion blur effect. See More
The monitor's contrast ratio, peak brightness, color accuracy, and gamma are on par with what the majority of competitors in this price range offer. The monitor's IPS panel displays good-looking picture, with bright and saturated colors, reasonably deep blacks, and lifelike intermediate mid-tones. The colors look good and pop thanks to the monitor's peak brightness of 250 nits. Dark scenes look pretty as the monitor's native contrast ratio of 1147:1 is high enough to make the IPS panel display good-looking blacks. The intermediate tones are well balanced as the monitor's gamma of 2.18 is only 1% away from the ideal value. Additionally, the Dell P2217H's color inaccuracies are very hard to spot because its average color error dE is only 3.2. See More
