Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Great viewing angles
As expected from an IPS panel, viewing angles are great. Horizontal adjustments don't change the colors much at all. When tilting in the vertical axis, the image can darken slightly.
Pro Lots of ports
With 5 USB 3.0 ports (one of which can act as a charger), 2 HDMI ports (with MHL), a DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort, as well as a DisplayPort out port for daisy chaining multiple screens
Pro Fully adjustable
It has tilt, swivel, height adjust and can be pivoted 90 degrees in both directions.
Pro Great for multi-monitor setups
The thin plastic bezel (1mm) and small 6mm screen boarder makes this a great screen to put side by side with another to minimise the deadspace between dual monitor setups. Also, an extra DisplayPort out means daisy chaining is possible.
Pro Fantastic screen quality
Dell calibrates the U2715H's screen in the factory to very precise measurements, and each monitor will have their own unique calibration report.
Pro Reasonably small input lag
Complete input lag time (signal delay and pixel response time) is 11.85ms or ¾ of a frame.
Pro Comes excellently calibrated
Pro Good color temperature uniformity
According to Spyder4Elite tests performed by PC Monitor, P2415Q has good color temperature uniformity. A DeltaE deviation of over 3 can be easily noticed by most people and the highest deviation recorded is 2.5. It's worth noting that the monitor has an uniformity compensation setting that in the same test proved to make things worse with a maximum deviation of 2.9.
Pro Impressive contrast
According to tests performed by PC Monitors, P2415Q set to factory defaults (75% brightness, Standard preset) produces luminance in the range of 0.21 - 237 cd/m² with a contrast ratio of 1129. It provides good brightness and dark blacks. It is also capable of going up to 0.30 - 331 cd/m² with a contrast ratio of 1182 at 100% brightness.
Cons
Con Buttons can be unresponsive
The captive buttons on the right side of the bottom bezel don't light up at all, and can be unresponsive when you first try to activate them.
Con Poor panel uniformity
While this will vary unit to unit, TFT Central found that the luminance uniformity on their unit was poor. The right side of the screen was up to 30% brighter than the left corners of the screen. It wasn't obvious at first glance, however for color-accurate work it could become an issue.
Con A maximum refresh rate of 60Hz can be a concern for some
A 60Hz monitor, while sufficient for most people in most cases, can still cause issues with fast-moving objects on screen. It's especially important with things like gaming where the ability to react to events happening on the screen quickly is important.
Con IPS glow
IPS glow is the light on the sides or corners of the screen that can reduce some of the peripheral detail.
Con Somewhat too grainy texture surface
