Not in the last place, there is 99% of sRGB coverage, which will provide a punchy image. Pair this with decently accurate colors in “Standard” mode (Average dE<2.0) and you get a reasonable offering for design work. If you need even more color accuracy, you can get our Gaming and Web design profile. Then even the maximum dE becomes less than 2.0. Fairly bright but not to the extent seen by default on most monitors. A well-balanced image overall that is quite pleasing both to the colorimeter and the eye. A bit of extra depth in places due to the generous colour gamut, but no obtrusive oversaturation. This monitor has a number of ‘Preset Modes’ to choose from; ‘Standard’, ‘Multimedia’, ‘Movie’, ‘Game’, ‘Paper’, ‘Color Temp.’, ‘sRGB’ and ‘Custom Color’. Some of these presets are quite useful, whilst others simply provide a sub-par image without bringing any real benefits. We will be focusing on a few of these presets, specifically those which maintained strong image characteristics or had good utility for other reasons. The table below includes key readings taken using a Datacolor Spyder5ELITE colorimeter alongside general some performed by eye. This data was collated after the monitor was left to run for at least 2 hours. The monitor was left in its ‘plug and play’ state with no additional drivers or ICC profiles loaded. An alternative LBL setting that offers a slightly stronger blue light reduction and is very close to its target of ‘5000K’. You can also set the colour temperature to various other Kelvin values instead.
I also recorded a colour temperature of 6934K, which is slightly cooler/bluer than the target 6500K that most closely resembles natural light. Samsung LTM238HL04 PLS (IPS-type) technology panel which is capable of producing 16.7 million colours.
It’s a Full HD display (1920 x 1080) and is set to this by default when you power it on for the first time. changes allowed us to obtain an optimal hardware starting point and setup before software level changes would be
The bottom line; a screen with excellent colour performance straight from the box and attractive aesthetics, combined with good ergonomic flexibility. By the way, it is great to see that Dell doesn’t use PWM to adjust the brightness of its display. Another great feature is the ergonomic stand. It offers swivel, tilt and pivot movement, as well as height adjustment. Not only this is good in terms of comfortability, but it is extremely useful for programmers and data specialists, that can utilize the vertical real estate. Claiming 99% sRGB and 85% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage out of the box, the Dell UltraSharp 24 could be a shoe-in for photo and video editing too. Amazing panels, great color reproduction, fantastic thin bezels, fantastic stand that moves in every way you would need it to. Good colour, good viewing angles, style, etc. It is a fantastic monitor with exceptionally slim bezels and amazing colour.The contrast performance was largely in-line with the predecessor with static contrast that is about as good as you can expect from an IPS-type panel. The ‘PLS glow’ observed here ate away at some of the detail for dark shades peripherally and was a bit more obvious than the ‘IPS glow’ seen on the U2414H and some other models. This difference, we feel, isn’t something that’s worth stressing about though. Responsiveness was similar if a little weaker than the earlier model, too. There was little input lag to speak of, which is good, and overall the level of perceived blur was much as you would hope for from a 60Hz LCD. There were some weaknesses beyond that, such as a bit of extra blur due to slower than optimal pixel transitions and some slightly ‘dirty’ overshoot trailing in places. As with the ‘IPS glow’ vs. ‘PLS glow’, the predecessor had a slight edge but it isn’t something we think you should let put you off the newer model. The OSD (On Screen Display) is controlled by pressable buttons on the underside of the bottom bezel, towards the right side. The power button is also located here, to the far right, with a small slit-style LED to indicate power status. This glows a gentle and unobtrusive cool white when the monitor is switched on and flashes in this colour when the monitor is in standby (‘active-off’). If the power button is pressed, the monitor will turn ‘off’ (technically still standby) and the power LED will turn off. The video below shows the functionality of the OSD. subtract half of the average G2G response time from the total display lag. This should allow us to give a good estimation of This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65. We test the reaction time of the pixels with the usual “Gray-to-Gray” method from 50% White to 80% White and vice versa between 10% and 90% of the amplitude.
