Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Viewsonic vx2250wm-led is a 1920x1080 monitor. It comes with a calibration report. The color reproduction is superb out of the box, and with calibration it is amazing.

The clarity and the contrast is top notch. Absolutely mesmerizing. In normal use the image is stunning.

The display is clean and bright. The matte finish and thin, black bezels make it easy to view in a variety of lighting conditions. Anti-glare on this display is a nice finish that makes it feel a bit more luxurious.



Cons

Problem is so obvious that rear cover of the back of the unit i received partially blocks the port--rendering that usb port useless. There is even at least one other reviewer on this amazon offering that had the same problem.

I confirm what many others have posted here. This is simply unacceptable. Called dell twice. Not even going to bother opening the 2nd.

There are four capacitive touch * in the front bezel, each marked only by a faint white dot. The first one has a stuck pixel in the middle of the screen.

It distresses me as a customer that dell only gives refurbished parts as replacement for parts which have been found faulty. Bumped against it one day, vaccuuming.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality


The monitor quality was very good, the screen was very sharp, a bit bright with the stock settings.


Brilliant quality screen for the price of $399.


While neither amzn's or dell's tech support team can help you with the dual-cable set up .


The quality of the images and screen resolution are great.

Price


For the right price, i would buy it again.

Packaging/appearance


The soft anti-glare coating is a nice touch.


It's just a weird thing to explain to folks when the computer isn't in use, and there are smears on the screen.


Moving it around my office or tilting it over to plug something in has resulted in several minor but irritating scratches on the screen.

Competitiveness


I use it exclusively on a 2017 macbook pro.


All-around workhorse, unless you're a cutting-edge gamer looking for refresh rates > 60hz (60fps).


A few caveats:1 - unless your device has a mini-dp port on it, buy a full-size dp cable!


I've used dell ultrasharp monitors for many years now, mainly at work.

    People always say good things about dell ultrasharp monitors and now i see why


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I bought a u3415w a year before this one and tried out different auxiliary monitors which never felt right because most of them didnt have a vertical resolution of 1440 and even when they did the actual hardware display height was taller and moving anything from one display to the other meant it would change sizes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not only is the display height the exact same but the two look very good together since aside from the width both monitors are physically identical the u3415w does have an integrated speaker at the bottom of the screen which makes the bottom bezel a little wider


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only negative is that the backlight does show through when the screen is all black


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My main complaint with this monitor is that it is very prone to scratches


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Moving it around my office or tilting it over to plug something in has resulted in several minor but irritating scratches on the screen


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    These scratches refract light and are very distracting


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The solution was to fill the scratches with vaseline and buff out the area gently with a lintfree cloth
