Dell 2709W

 

Dell's latest 27-inch introduces an updated menu system, several new inputs and wide colour gamut.

New menu system is leagues ahead of the 07 and 08 series. Great blacks. Mass of video inputs. Audio out for HDMI.

Can be easy to accidentally turn off due to touch sensitive buttons. Zoom function only magnifies the centre, can't be repositioned. Standard preset is too saturated, sRGB too undersaturated. Left and right sides at the extremes are a bit dark....

While hardcore PC gamers might want to stay clear, and colour professionals may have to wrestle a little with calibration to get the most out of it, the 2709W is likely to please your average user to no end who wants a big screen with a decent resolution.

GCN Lab Review: Dell UltraSharp 2709W LCD monitor

 

If you play a lot of video on a large screen, the 2709W is a good choice. But if color accuracy or more mundane tasks hold sway, a 24-inch panel might better suit your office needs.

Colors are vivid but not quite accurate, light bleeds in from upper corners of screen

Dell 2709W

 

Monitor is too large for he native resolution. Text is fuzzy even after tweaking display settings and antialiasing properties in the driver.

Plenty of digital inputs makes a DVI KVM unnecessary. Very bright; good color saturation

Native resolution of 1920x1200 is too small for the panel. The Dell 24" is better for 1080p

Dell 2709W

 

This is one sexy baby, added the finishing touch to my mean machine. All my friends have fallen in love, and wanna get one too

Sexy look, super clear, excellent colour displays. Almost all ports available, now my PS3, CPU and Hi-Fi is connected to it! Next for a DVD player

Because of the sheer size and the intensity of the colours, im still adjusting it day by day, to get the right tone, as it indedd is searing into my retina. Gotten Headaches a couple of time already because of it
