Dell UltraSharp U3011


$1,500.00 Released September, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:10-bit panel with 12-bit LUT. Colour calibrated at the factory - Delta E <5 guaranteed. Improved wake-up and input selection times.

The Cons:No portrait mode (like the U2711). Poor default colour accuracy - has to be calibrated to get the best colour performance. Extremely expensive over the U2410 and U2711.

More importantly, the U3011 offers a bevy of connectivity/input options, from HDMI to DVI, DisplayPort, USB, and even a multi-card media reader. Critics appreciate the connectivity, as well as all the available color adjustment options, and the support for 24p content. However, there have been reports of judder in Blu-ray panning scenes, input lag (especially while playing fast-paced games), and a very complex menu system.
