What customers say about "Key Specs"

Dell P2717H 27" Screen LED-Lit Monitor

Outstanding picture clarity, response and overall performance.
This has a thinner bezel and similar quality picture. Works quite well for office work.
The size of the screen is perfect for my application and the picture is very clear.
Very nice monitor especially for the price. I’m using it with a Mac Mini via HDMI cable. No problems. Excellent picture.
I have it mounted near the ceiling and despite the high vertical angle, the picture is still crisp.

Dell U2717D UltraSharp Infinity Edge Monitor

Picture is absolutely gorgeous. These monitors replace a single Samsung 24" that's many years old at this point and the improvement is noticeable.
This display is truly immersive, weather doing mundane office tasks or video games.
It’s just the right amount of resolution too. 4K might be okay, but my laptop screen is almost too dense sometimes.
Colors are accurate, the display itself is sufficiently bright, and the refresh rate is good enough for most applications.
This monitor is probably not a good choice if you work with videos or want to watch videos on it due to slow refresh rate, so keep that in mind.

What customers say about "Display"

Dell P2717H 27" Screen LED-Lit Monitor

I use it all day long and the clarity of picture and colour depth are amazing.
This display is perfect for an office/ home media station. The panel is bright and clear text and movies look great though.
Works flawlessly. The color display is accurate and the monitor movement like tilt, bending and rotating are so good.
This monitor is great. Its picture is not the top of the top best, but it's certainly good enough.
Super-fast shipping, packed well, easily assembled. This monitor gives a beautiful picture!

Dell U2717D UltraSharp Infinity Edge Monitor

The color accuracy is great on this thing. Good brightness and ready to go.
Brightness and contrast have a wide range. This thing can get really bright if needed, but also looks just as great at lower settings when working at night.
This has possibly the best screen I've ever seen. The colors look great.
Colors are trustworthy and the almost complete lack of bezel is actually a plus over the Asus.
Color tweaking options are comprehensive—I ended up using the Custom option with RGB turned to max. It really depends on your room's lighting and conditions.

What customers say about "Features"

Dell P2717H 27" Screen LED-Lit Monitor

Arrived on time, well packaged, very easy to assemble. Also came with a variety of cables.
It is easy to set up and considering, it tilts and you adjust its height is a big advantage.
The stand that comes with the monitor is better than most as it allows quite a broad height adjustment, as well as complimenting the overall style of the monitor.
This display can rotate left and right, swivel clockwise 90, tilt back and forth and is height adjustable.
The plastic bezel looks great but feels a bit cheap in places, especially at the top centre where it creaks and visibly bends if you apple pressure.

Dell U2717D UltraSharp Infinity Edge Monitor

The bezel is extremely thin all around, about a half inch, the monitor is light and can be easily raised and lowered without adjusting any knobs or anything.
VESA 100x100 mounting is compatible with most monitor stands/arms.
Most of the controls are on screen – and it is fairly easy to use.
Rotation from landscape to portrait is easy.
The physical display adjustment/menu buttons take quite a bit of pressure to press, but considering how seldom people will be using them, it's no biggy.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Dell P2717H 27" Screen LED-Lit Monitor

Worked very well and easy to connect up.
Plenty of ports including embedded USB 3.0 hub and accessible USB 3.0 port on the left hand side.
Display Port, HDMI and VGA make this a pretty versatile choice.
Simply connect the cable most suited to you (it comes with HDMI, VGA and Display Port cables) and the image looks great.
The USB ports on the bottom are USB 2.0. Seems pointless to have such dated technology, especially when they've including USB 3.0 on the side.

Dell U2717D UltraSharp Infinity Edge Monitor

Love the size and clarity. The USB 3.0 ports are an added bonus. I use this to display my MacBook Pro retina when docked and it's fantastic. The screen is very matte.
The HDMI, DisplayPort, and mini-DP connectors make this monitor great for laptop users who want an outboard monitor.
This monitor comes with plenty of ports for all kinds of connections many simultaneously.
The bad about the USB - they are all in the back. This is not convenient for swamping out USB drives, etc.
This is a great monitor except that it has an incompatibility with the Thunderbolt/DisplayPort connection on a MacBook Pro where the screen will periodically go blank.
