Pros

Clear and vibrant colours. Are good. Colours are vivid.

The u2515h has a full tilt and swivel adjustment system. It has a super slim bezel and a great colour reproduction. It also has a great 60hz refresh rate.

The factory calibration set-up (you're getting a note, saying that has been tested in dell labs) is okay. Purchased this monitor through amazon in conjunction with pcbuyit ltd.

Super thin bezels and qhd resolution make this a complete winner aesthetically. Viewing angles are very good too but being a matte ips display you do get some glow with *. The matte coating isn't as harsh as some other displays i have had. Also have t...  Read More

The extra real estate compared to a hd monitor is a real eye opener. In this day and age, when one has to make screen purchases without seeing them live in a showroom, these facts become a major issue. The build in usb3 hub is really handy for connect...  Read More



Cons

This monitor is not worth recommending to anyone. It is incompatible with a 2015 dell xps13 or its dell docking station. Using hdmi, i can get the full 2560 x 1440 resolution on my mac mini, but not on my desktop pc. Returned the product and ordered a...  Read More

The anti-glare coating is terrible. My cheap tn panel does a better job at maintaining the picture colours off angle.

Quality


Yes, it's a little more expensive than other qhd displays but the quality is worth it.


The quality is good and you can have two or three documents open side by side.


I was thinking hey, i'll probably stick with the hd resolution and just buy a good 25 monitor.


After having had this issue, i tried a good quality dp to minidp cable instead of the one supplied by dell.

Packaging/appearance


Packaging by amazon was one massive box with plenty of filling to pack the dell box which itself is built to withstand a tank d...  Read More


Packaging is very solid and compact (and reusable for transport) and set up is a breeze.


The icons/texts on the win8 desktop were/are fine visible).


The unboxing was simple: just opening the box, pulling out the package, opening it (short of book) and simply connecting the st...  Read More

Competitiveness


Extends display into 2560 x 1440, excellent colour reproduction, 60hz refresh rate.


It is much crisper than its 2415h sibling.


Having used this, i now get frustrated at the smaller 1920x1200 resolution that i use at work.


As a pc gamer i was torn between choosing this or a similarly priced 1080p g-sync monitor with a high refresh rate.

    Solution might be the hidpi mode in macos but its a little tricky to setup with unsupported monitors

    I eventually decided to go for image quality over high refresh rate as i am studying a buildingengineering related degree and need to use cad revit review architectural drawings etc

    If you are considering this monitor primarily for gaming i must stress you really do need a high end graphics card 1440p is very demanding even at lower settings on some games


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I tend to watch video on my television anyway but if thats a dealbreaker for you then id recommend something with a native 1080p resolution instead for now or possibly 4k as its a more common video format than 1440p
