Digital Home Thoughts: Bit-tech.net Reviews the Dell Ultrasharp 2407WFP Monitor

"Dell has become one of the first brands that hardcore geeks like us look to when choosing a monitor. Isn't that bizarre? Despite the 'Dull' brand so often associated with it, recent years have seen the Texas firm redefine the TFT market with some great monitors at insane prices. The 24" monitor that was released last year went after the Apple Cinema Display market, but was two thirds the price. It has proved such a hit with high-end users, that we've even incorporated its 1920x1200 resolution into our game testing. Likewise, the 1680x1050 20" panel has also been popular, available for around £300, making it a cheap buy. Dell recently pushed out the boat with a 30" display running 2560x1600, perfect for coupling with an equally ludicrously expensive dual or quad graphics setup. To match the styling of this new monitor, Dell has revamped its entire display range, adding new features and respinning the looks. Today, we're looking at the new 24", the 2407WFP."



This looks like one smokin' monitor - I've had my eye on it for a while now. I currently have two Dell 20" square-screen monitors side by side, but switching to two 24" widescreens sure would make my day. :D It's a bit disappointing to read about the minor problems with high-resolution photo display and banding, but I have to admit that I tend not to peep at the pixels that closely so I don't think I'd notice it. Any 2407WFP owners out there - what do you think of this monitor?
