Dell U2718Q 27 Inch UltraSharp 4K LED-backlit, Anti-Glare, 3H Hard Coating IPS Monitor - (8 ms Response, 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz, 1300:1 Contrast, with ComfortView, DisplayPort, VGA, HDMI and USB)

Product Information

The U2718Q has a much higher native resolution, it supports HDR, and it has much better viewing angles. The most widely used panels are those with 6, 8, and 10 bits for each of the RGB components of the pixel. The high refresh rate delivers a nearly perfect response time with almost no motion blur, as well as being flicker-free.

This monitor has a very good response time, but there's more noticeable motion blur than high refresh rate gaming monitors.An integrated power supply means there's no need for an external brick, and Dell also takes good care of controls, with the bottom-right edge lined with four tactile buttons and a dedicated power switch. Can the more modest U2718Q deliver a convincing HDR experience, and does HDR make sense on a Windows 10 desktop? A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

With Windows 10, the user has the option of turning HDR on or off completely, but it can't yet be automated depending on what's on screen. Information about the maximum vertical viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality.

The Dell U2718Q is a bit better than the Samsung Space SR75 for most uses, but the SR75 is a bit better for gaming. Comparatively, the monitor reviewed in this article is a bit worse in color (as far as reviews go), but has a more modern design with a thinner bezel. The X27 is brighter and offers a much better HDR experience, as it's brighter and can produce brighter highlights, as well as the added full array local dimming feature. But the color shift is VERY noticeable between my 2015 15" MBP and my Dell U2718Q (and not in a good direction).

Information about some of the main accessories included in the standard packaging of the current model. But that has also changed in the last several years as Dell, similarly to LG, has released a lineup of factory-calibrated, wide-gamut, color-precise monitors.It is also about as wide as you can get to use side by side landscape-mode mounted on Ergotron or Human Scale arms. The Dell U2718Q is better than the Samsung CHG70, unless your main use is for gaming or for dark room viewing. The operating humidity shows the acceptable level of humidity, in which the display will function flawlessly. Activate HDR and the majority of Windows 10 content, which happens to be SDR, looks nothing short of frightful. In the OSD (On-Screen Display), you will find the following settings: contrast, brightness, aspect ratio, sharpness, color format, color temperature, input source selection, RGB, hue, and saturation.
