Two Dell S2715H 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitors Bundled with AmazonBasics Dual Side-by-Side Mounting Arm

Comment

Huge fan of these monitors. Im currently running 2, but have setup a total of 4 so far. No dead pixels, no issues of any kind so far. The picture is great - its only 1080p on these guys, but the colors come across beautifully. The borderless (there is a slight bit of black around the image display and a very thin plastic bezel, so its not actually borderless) looks modern and sharp! Buttons are capacitive touch and I like that the power supply is external. Not fun when an internal power brick dies. The only downside I can think of is that when it sleeps, the power indicator light (bright white) pulses slowly. Its a minor thing and I could just turn the monitor off, but in a dark room its very noticeable. Speakers are there, but... internal speakers, what can you expect. No DVI hookup, FYI! HDMI or VGA without adapting. Still, 5/5 for this Dell.

These monitors are perfect for an office or home office when the primary use doesnt include any gaming. While they will do just fine for gaming in respect to color and clarity the 60hz leaves much to be desired for higher end graphics. That said the clarity and look is perfect and with VESA mounting and VGA/HDMI ports you can easily dual up with most docking stations or default video ports. The bezel is ultra slim and dual monitors look great with these. As expected the speakers leave something to be desired but one shouldnt be expecting amazing sound quality from a builtin monitor speaker. Overall these are a solid monitors for business use.

Absolutely LOVE this monitor. I prefer a glass (glossy) finish over a matte finish, because I feel that a matte finish washes out the colors. I saw this at Micro Center for $350 and was blown away by how rich and deep the picture quality was, found it on Amazon for $230 and picking it up was a no brainer. I could not be happier. I got this for a new gaming PC I built and it is by far the best looking monitor I have ever owned for gaming. Again, I prefer the glossy finish of this (think IMac screen), over a matte finish. So if you prefer matte, look elsewhere, but if you like the deeper contrast of glass, get this.

Plus. The Monitor is crisp, clear and clean. You get the whole screen, with very little size added on for edge plastic. Brightness and color are consistent to the edge of the monitor. Minus: Stand does not adjust, connectors are recessed deep into the underside of the back that it difficult to reach under and behind to connect "by feel" Im happy with the monitor, once it was installed. Its the size that I wanted, but the rigid stand stand is rather unfriendly. The screen is bright, clear, and without distortion. The "best" feature was the low price, which makes this a very choice for budget minded buyers who want a large monitor (like me)

I bought this display primarily as a camera monitor for making largely boring YouTube videos. What I wanted was a very wide viewing angle, a crisp picture, and good color depth and contrast for a couple of hundred bucks. For the price, this monitor is amazing. It absolutely exceeded my expectations. Dells site lists the viewing angle as 178 degrees both horizontally and vertically. There is a little bit of darkening of the far side of the screen when viewed nearly from the side, but I also own decent quality IPS monitors from HP and Asus and this Dell beats them out. Fresh from the factory the colors look great. They can probably use some tweaking, but the first thing I did with the monitor was throw on a couple of my own videos that I graded (not that I know what Im doing), and they looked "right". White and grey fields were very consistent and even, except at extreme viewing angles. With a black field I was slightly disappointed with a noticeable backlight bleed in the lower-right corner when viewing straight on. Its pretty minor, and has a very smooth gradation which helps it from popping through unless the screen is very very dark. Contrast looks great, both in videos and in color charts. As with everything, this is a relatively cheap monitor so its not perfect. But at this price point its gotta be one of the best IPS displays out there. I work in IT, so Ive handled a lot of monitors. This one has a quality feel. The fit and finish are very consistent, it has a nice weight (maybe "nice density" is a better term) and solidity. Though the stand lacks height adjustment (not often seen at this price anyhow) and the vertical swivel range is pretty small, its pretty solid. The base isnt very wide, so if you press down on the top corner on either side it could easily tip over. (But why would you do that?) I havent tested the speakers, because .. well, I didnt buy it for the speakers, and Im going to take a guess and say that theyre not very good. One awesome thing that I didnt see in the other reviews is that the monitor uses exactly the same power supply as Dells low-end business laptops. The connector and power specifications (19.5V / 3.34A) makes it compatible with most of Dells entire range of laptops. I know that doesnt sound so important, but if you have a Dell laptop and the power supply dies on you then you can just pull the one off your monitor while you wait for a replacement. If youve ever been stuck with a dead laptop, you know that could be a huge plus. Its also great because a replacement PSU for the monitor is extremely easy to find. (And you can trust me on this.. the monitors PSU is currently powering and charging my trusty old Latitude E5410.) Oh, and I know that theres an Acer out there thats a bit cheaper with similar specs. The main reason I chose this one is because of the VESA mounting holes. Also, the Acer has ports that are rear-facing. If youre concerned about aesthetics, the S2415H has down-facing connectors, and a removable bezel to cover them. Its kinda irrelevant for me, but its another little touch that puts the monitor above the rest. It comes with an HDMI cable, instructions, and a driver/whatever CD. Everything went in the garbage besides the HDMI cable. Its a real cheap cable -- not gold-plated -- but its better than no cable at all. There is no VGA nor analog audio cable, both of which the monitor does support. Oh, and something I didnt realize until after Id ordered: It has a glossy screen. For me thats not a problem, but its not mentioned in the description here on Amazon. (It is mentioned in a couple of reviews, so if youre already down to mine then you probably already know that. Shame on me for not thoroughly reading the reviews first. ;) ). Obviously Id recommend this monitor. Ive seen far worse monitors for more money, but I dont think Ive seen a better one for less.

This is an excellent monitor. 1080p display clarity on this 24" monitor just stands out of all other competing monitors i have researched so far. before buying this monitor i had spent some time reviewing different monitors from Acer,HP as well as from Dell. somehow i did not liked any of them as display looked either very bleak or washed out. S2415H comes with built in speakers which are pretty decent for basic home video/movie watching experience. Thin bezels in this monitor actually enhances viewing experience and adds premium look. monitor stand does allow to adjust angle but there is no support to adjust height, just consider this factor if adjusting height is very important for you. there are no built-in USB port in this monitor, for me this was not a requirement since i am using Logitech 520 which is an amazing unified wireless keyboard/mouse product. this monitor is very light weight and installation and setup took hardy 15mins. Dell has done a very good job calibrating this monitor in factory itself, it saved a lot of my time. i could have have saved 40-50$ by buying a cheaper 1080p monitor from buying another Dell monitor (2415HM) but after looking at this monitor at a local store i decided additional 50$ for this monitor was worth. Dell does has Ultra sharp U series but its and additional 100$+ which i was not comfortable spending. Amazon as usual stand out of line when it comes to offer best price as well super fast delivery.

Ive never had a goods screen prior to using this monitor and I can boldly say that Id refuse to use a matte screen again. The bezels on the side are thin and it makes this monitor what it is. Im a web developer and have no issues with this monitor except for the following ... NOTE: There is very noticeable light bleed on the top corner of my perticular monitor and after going through the reviews, its a common thing. Ive opted not to return mine because it really isnt a huge issue and a sub $200 monitor isnt something I purchased for awe and glory. Ill actually be getting another one regardless of the light bleed seeing as its not noticable while browsing the web or even while watching YouTube.

I got this monitor for practically a steal at $149.99. This is a great IPS display for office work and general use. I have it connected via HDMI and picture quality is very good. I dont need accurate colors for my work so I cant really comment how accurate they truly are, but it looks very good from all reasonable angles. The only major con of this monitor is that it doesnt have DisplayPort support. It would be much nicer to daisy-chain multiple of these monitors together. The bezel is plenty thin to have these side by side very nicely. Also, the screen is fairly glossy, so if you sit near a window, you may want to find something with a more matte display.

I bought two of these screens for work. Overall, the picture and quality are very nice. Everything is very crisp, bright and clean. However, the actual screen texture is so smooth it is almost glass-like. This leaves a very reflective surface that can make it hard to read with any bright lights or sun coming through the window. I might have to look into an anti-glare film to help resolve this issue. Otherwise it is a a very good product.

Its big (thats what she said), sleek, and modern looking. Love the touch panel buttons on the bottom right. It matches my Dell 21.5" S2340M dual monitors. But I cannot believe this did not have DVI input. Easily solved with an adapter but I noticed when using an adapter the quality somewhat diminishes. The average person may not see it but I look at 3 monitors 18 hours a day, 8 times a week so I see it.
