Dell 2405FPW 24in LCD Monitor

The Dell 2405FPW is a 24in display with a true HD beating resolution of 1,920 x 1,200. And it's available for a recording breaking price. Is it too good to be true?

With the 2405FPW, Dell has brought the ultimate in desirable screen resolution to its most affordable level yet. Despite its relatively low price tag, this is an impressive screen that's easy to set up, very well featured and most centrally, has decent...

Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW review

Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW We've seen a few jumbo LCDs lately, including the Sony PremierPro SDM-P234 and the Apple Cinema HD display , that offer excellent image quality and stunning design in addition to a vast viewing area. Unfortunately, neither of...

Excellent image quality; wide array of video connections; flash-card slots and USB ports; highly adjustable yet sturdy; picture-in-picture capability; inexpensive.

Somewhat bland design.

Dell's 24-inch LCD delivers excellent image quality and a ton of features--wide-ranging video inputs, picture-in-picture, and flash-card slots--for a great price.

The Dell 2405PCW includes great still-image quality and several entertainment inputs at a category-busting price.

Ultrasharp 2405FPW

At its native resolution of 1920 by 1200 pixels, the $1199 Dell 2405FPW showed remarkable color and clarity. On test screens, text looked sharp, and images looked crisp and saturated. The 24-inch wide screen performed particularly well on our Web page...

Fluid physical adjustments Accessible 9-in-1 media card reader function mycarousel_initCallback(carousel) { jQuery('.jcarousel-control a').bind('click', function() { var myClass = jQuery(this).attr('class'); ...

umption Tests For The Electronics and PCs You Use PC World's Test Center ran a series of energy use measurements for laptops, desktops, HDTVs, and LCD monitors. Here's what we found.

Overall, moving images looked best when played at small size in a picture-in-picture window. Despite this 24-inch wide-screen monitor appeal when used for office tasks, it won't replace a TV for full-screen DVD viewing

Dell Widescreen UltraSharp 2405FPW

This is an astonishing value for a 24-inch, widescreen LCD. The Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW offers a bright, gorgeous picture with an impressive contrast ratio for an LCD.

Impressive image quality. Exceptional resolution (1,920-by-1,200 WUXGA). Aggressive price. Built-in 9-in-1 memory card reader.

Minimal picture adjustments in DVI mode. Takes up a lot of room for a desktop LCD.

As desktop LCD monitors become more prevalent, the idea of a massive display becomes more appealing. Although a 24-inch CRT display would overwhelm most desks, a 24-inch widescreen LCD monitor might fit in. The Dell UltraSharp 2405 ($1,199 direct)...
