Dell P2414H 24-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Overall I like my monitor. Pros: - I love the ergonomic features. Height, tilt, swivel and pivot! - Text is OK. I code... a lot. Ill be updating later one after a year of use. Caveats: - I liked that it came with a DisplayPort. However I was sad to find out I couldnt use it because my laptop had a mini-displayport instead. My bad. I bought a mini-display port cable (Accell B143B-007J UltraAV Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.2 Cable) and the image quality is a lot better than using the hdmi-dvi cable cable I had. Text is sharper, cleaner. - Still, I think text could look better. I remember reading some reviews here about disabling some image enhancement feature, which I think I already disabled. Ill double-check this and update if I can get the text to look better upon further inspection. - I also bought this monitor to be able to hook up my micro-HDMI windows tablet. For some reason (maybe the cable) the text doesnt looks as good as in my office Dell U2412M. On my office set-up I use and micro-HDMI to HDMI cable. At home, I first tried the HDMI-DVI cable but everything looks fuzzy with that one. I was disappointed I couldnt use a HDMI-to-DVI adapter as the design of the back of the monitor doesnt have enough room. Ill need an HDMI 270 degree angled adapter (which I just bought) to make it work. Im hoping for the best here. Is all of this too much hassle? Its for you to decide. Its all in function of your time and money to make your set-up work for you. Cheers!

It is the same monitor my company provide. So I had previous experience with it. It has a high quality resolution and very dependable monitor.

I like the portrait and landscape orientation possible. And the stand. It can be adjusted quite high up if desired and easily. Its spring loaded so you just slide it up or down to your desired height. The colors are very good. This is replacing an HP 23xi which has great color, but burned out after 2 years. I hope this one lasts longer. Using it for photo editing and general purpose things. Mine came with 4 cords: HDMI, VGA, DVI, Power cord. Nice. Im currently using it with the DVI connector and alls well.

I ordered a refurbished monitor to match the one I already have.. The model was the same but the base was different unfortunately.. However, the monitor works brilliantly and I couldnt be happier with the quality.. The company was promt with delivery and it was very fairly priced.. Thank you.

excellent quality monitors- I bought 2 of them. I use programs with lots of menus so I need the screen real estate. I did a lot of research and found this monitor to be great for graphic design. I have them mounted via brackets together and I am happy. The colors and brightness are nice and vivid. I also like that the screen is matte and not reflective. So when you are in a bright lit room you dont see yourself in the monitor, like a mirror. I have an apple monitor that is reflective and I notice that I prefer the non-reflective displays such as this one.

If youre looking for a widescreen that can swivel to portrait or landscape, stop looking. This is it. Pros: Stunning IPS panel. My non-IPS laptop looks revolting in comparison now. This monitor has deep blacks and vivid colors. That might not sound important for your workday, but you will really appreciate the difference. The stand is amazing... it can slide up and down to meet your eye level, and it can tilt 180 degrees to become the perfect PDF reader. Cons: No standard HDMI port. Find out what kind of port your computer has and add the appropriate adapter cable to your Amazon order. I spent $6 on a DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable, and everything is gravy now. Spend the extra money and get this monitor. Seriously. Dont settle for a crappy stand.

I guess Im just old school but Ive always liked a 4:3 ratio screen but since my last one finally died a few weeks back, I had to go with new because the available 4:3 were too old or too expensive. I decided to go with this 22 inch 16:9 Dell. Its very nice and of course has the 4:3 ratio option available and is very quick and easy to switch between the two so I can work PC all I need to and then watch videos MAC while I relax. Its gets better with the adjustable height stand that also has multiple connection options as well as Upstream / Downstream USB ports right on the monitor. This is a great buy for the price. I highly recommend this product.

I was one of the unlucky few who purchased this monitor and got an old model with a BGR subpixel layout. 99 percent of monitors on the market today use an RGB subpixel layout as a standard. For some reason, earlier versions of the P2214H shipped with a BGR layout, which means that text is going to look blurry without some work. For Windows users, this means adjusting your ClearType settings, but unfortunately it also means hoping that the Web browser you use is compatible with BGR subpixels. Chrome users should take note as the browsers DirectWrite font rendering engine is only compatible with RGB. For Mac users, your only option is to mount the monitor upside-down, which requires you to disassemble part of the monitors stand and reattach it flipped. Of course this also means that you lose any aesthetic quality the monitor had. My understanding through research is that newer models of this monitor shipped with RGB panels as a standard; however, I purchased mine from Amazon during the first week of February 2015. So just because the newer monitors have RGB panels does not mean that you will get one if you purchase it from here. I am extremely disappointed in this transaction, considering that it is otherwise a well-built monitor.

At first I bought this monitor just as a temporary monitor until I buy a legit, bigger monitor because I was planning on using dual monitors and use this one as a sub monitor since it can pivot and rotate 180. A month after I got this DELL monitor I bought BENQ gaming monitor. As I planned, I started using BENQ as a main and this one as a sub (rotated). However, while I was playing bunch of 3D steam games, (resident evil 6, witcher 3 etc) I realized that this DELL monitor was the real bad-ass. Of course BENQs bigger, but the color is just not as good as that of DELLs. Ive been using the standard stock setting for my DELL monitor and the clearness, sharpness and color temperature blah blah (I dont know much about this color related jargon so Imma just skip) are JUST SOOOOOOOO Amazing and WAAAAAy better. I have tried every single options for the BenQ monitor (Hue Temp Contrast Saturation bla bla whateva) but It never had same amazing feeling as Dells heavenly screen. I dont even know how to put this but its like watching DELLs monitor is like looking at a nicely cut chocolate squares while watching other monitors are like watching the same thing but all melted and squashed.. I mean this monitor is not even ULTRA SHARP model yet it has the best screen quality and color I have ever experienced. Bottom line, I ended up using this as a main monitor and the bigger gaming monitor as a sub monitor on the side.. cause I would rather play games with smaller screen with better quality than bigger, less fine quality. So I guess that pretty much explains how freakin awesome this monitor is. It was on sale and I got this for $159, and I think this monitor worth way more than that. I would even pay $300 for this monitor if I break mine and have to buy again (and if the price went up). Dont hesitate and just buy this. U WONT REGRET!

This is a great monitor. It has a sturdy stand. Images are bright, clear and sharp, although overly bright with the out of box settings. Currently set brightness 10 and contrast 78. i am using the DVI input although that is the one cable not included. I would have given this a 5 out of 5 except for one thing. I cannot figure out how to register this for the warranty! Dell website requires a 7 digit service tag number and then goes on to say that most monitors do not have a service tag number and this is one that does not! I have an account with Dell but it only wants to access products already purchased.
