Hi everyone,
I really enjoy Dell monitors, mainly because of their IPS panels and anti glare coating, they are all glitchy devices, yet I find them to be worth it, I would also suggest them to anyone just for this reason
My current 24" 1900x1200 Dell U2413 is failing
I'm wondering whether I should upgrade to a 4K 24" P2415Q or 27" P2715Q
With the 4K, I will have crisper retina fonts at the 1900x1080 resolution, so for the workspace, I'm loosing 120px in height, yet gaining crisper fonts (I have a retina macbook as the secondary monitor, and the font renderings are just lightyears apart)
It might also be easier for me to buy a U2715H 27" 2560x1440, increase both the resolution and the monitor size
(I was unsure whether I should start this discussion at the ergonomics section, yet this sub-forum seems more compatible with the topic)
I'm at a dilemma, 24" 4K seems to be the best option, as I'm used to 24" monitors, find them optimal in size/pixel density, yet the 27" 4K is tempting, and the 27" 1440p is locally available
The 27" 1440p would extend my workspace significantly, but I would lose the retina fonts
The 27" 4K/1080p setup just seems too large for the 1080p resolution, I guess it would only be better for the movies/tvshows
Not considering getting 4K monitors and using a sub 2x multiplier, using the original resolution or retina reduction seems better
To sum up:
- P2415Q - 1080p - lose 120px in height, gain retina fonts, order from amazon internationally or wait
- P2715Q - 1080p - lose 120px in height, gain retina fonts, risk neck issues with the increased monitor size, order from amazon internationally or wait
- U2715H - 1440p - extended workspace - non-retina, available locally
