Reviews around height (4.59 of 5)

  • It has an elegant design and a great stand (adjustable height, tilt, rotation), and I got the 1920 x 1200 resolution I wanted to give me a few extra vertical pixels compared to the typical 1080p monitors.
  • Normally with this orientation you have to deal with looking at a shrunken version of your picture since the height will be limited by the height of the screen
  • person.edit2: I wouldn't otherwise rate this down except this monitor is falsely advertised as "adjustable height"; the height is adjustable in normal mode, not reasonably adjustable in pivot mode (therefore defeating the purpose of getting a pivoting, adjustable-height monitor; you might as well just get a random monitor and a VESA mount for an extra $20-200 depending on your needs)
  • The world needs more quality 16:10 monitors with adjustable height
  • GREAT VALUE.Oh, and a great bonus is the adjustable height, and you can rotate the monitor into a portrait

Reviews around resolution (4.46 of 5)

  • The monitor is otherwise great, good brightness and resolution, good dark values.

  • Color and contrast is great and the resolution is incredible

Reviews around revision numb (2.82 of 5)

  • This is revealing, since when emursing myself in reviews for monitors, I started to feel like the 2412M would be a 'compromise'
  • The yellow monitors appeared to be manufactured in the later part of 2013 with a revision number of
  • So it would appear that the one I have has had a software or firmware update based on the revision number

Reviews around order numb (2.40 of 5)

  • This is revealing, since when emursing myself in reviews for monitors, I started to feel like the 2412M would be a 'compromise'
  • Returning them and getting the correct U replacements was straightforward, although cumbersome (this was an order of 14 monitors, so could have been worse).
  • I guess I will open a customer support ticket instead, but no, this requires an order number, which of course I do not have since I bought it on amazon
  • We have developers and support staff using them and they love the U2412M.
  • I'm not a techie, but I did need a big screen for work, researched what was out there thoroughly, took it all in, and landed on the Dell Ultra Sharp U2412M 24-inch

Reviews around coat (2.34 of 5)

  • I was unable to calibrate my monitor to distinguish between 96-100% blacks.- Anti-glare coating
  • You can see a touch of the anti-glare coating on an all white screen background, but otherwise it is unnoticeable.
  • I appreciate the anti-glare coating because I work next to a

Reviews around input lag (2.30 of 5)

  • Not as accurate as an EIZO as it's been compared to, but very close and a much better value for most applications in a design, retouching, or prepress environment
  • Conclusion: out of the better-packaged box, the Asus PA248Q offers a higher quality display in terms of colors and a more uniform IPS glow, at the expense of more input lag than the Dell
  • Rather than price, I was more bothered with second cons as I needed a single computer in home as well as in school with all required softwares for my academic work which I might need to access anytime
  • It's not quite as sharp as I had hoped for (noticeable with smaller fonts) but good value considering the reasonable price.
  • I've had several LCD monitors in the past at home as well as at work

Reviews around problem (2.29 of 5)

  • The problem is the lack of HDMI ports :(, I had to buy a converter for my Macbook pro.
  • In other words this yellow tint issue is in my opinion a phony problem that stems from ignorance
  • I hope that the seller reads this and remedies the problem!
  • Not everyone will suffer the same problem but, it's a possibility
  • I wished it didn't have that problem since I really like the new revision (mainly due to the lighter antiglare coating)

  • Great color reproduction and no eye strain with these settings
  • I have no eye strain after using this monitor for hours
