See how we test. Samsung LTM270DL11 PLS (IPS-type) technology panel which is capable of producing 16.7 million colours. the equivalent of more than 2 frames at a refresh rate of 120Hz - Some noticeable lag in daily usage, not

work in darkened room conditions with low ambient light. A setting of 30 in the OSD menu should return you a subtract half of the average G2G response time from the total display lag. This should allow us to give a good estimation of And when we tested Adobe RGB coverage in standard mode, the U2719D covered just 73.8 percent of that color space, which is used mostly for print photography. (Dell doesn't make any Adobe RGB coverage claims for this panel.) and fall times (changes from light to dark shades) were pretty consistent. Some measurements reached There are four function buttons and a Power switch located on the right side of the bottom edge of the U2717D's cabinet. Picture settings are fairly basic and include eight picture presets (Standard, Multimedia, Movie, Game, Paper, Color Temperature, sRGB, and Custom), as well as Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness, and two Gamma settings (PC or Mac). You don't get the advanced 6-Axis-Hue and -Saturation color controls that you get with the BenQ SW2700PT and the Acer Predator XB271HU , and there are no Blue Light settings on this model.

A brilliant streamlined design, USB Type-C connectivity and superb colour accuracy help justify the high price

power draw could be seen by having USB and SoundBar devices connected. Once calibrated the screen reached

For the other parts, the 3.5mm output for the U2719D seems pretty good, it supports 192 KHz at 24 Bit, and when using my IEMs, I can't hear any static / hisses. The output is really not too bad for a built in sound, but due to the rolled off bass, I still prefer a dedicated DAC + amp.

move. There is a 130mm height adjustment which is a bit stiff but smooth overall. At the lowest setting the bottom edge of the screen is

Over the years, I have reviewed iPad and iPhone science apps, plus the occasional camera, laptop, keyboard, and mouse. I've also written a host of articles about astronomy, space science, travel photography, and astrophotography for PCMag and its past and present sibling publications (among them, Mashable and ExtremeTech), as well as for the PCMag Digital Edition. While not designed for gaming, the U2717D's 5-millisecond pixel response did an admirable job of handing fast action in my Crysis 3 (PC) and Grand Theft Auto V ( Sony PlayStation 4 ) tests, but there was minimal screen tearing in the Crysis 3 tests. A 37-millisecond input lag (the time it takes for the monitor to react to a controller command), which I measured using a Leo Bodnar Video Signal Lag Tester , is at the high end of acceptable lag; our fastest monitors, the BenQ XL2430T and the SW2700PT, measured 9.5 milliseconds.The screen has a very thin side profile as shown in the picture above. This is despite it having an integrated Color accuracy in testing was spot-on. As shown on the chromaticity chart below, red, green, and blue colors (represented by the colored dots) are all very closely aligned with their ideal CIE coordinates (represented by the boxes). Colors appeared uniform in the DisplayMate Color Purity and Uniformity tests, and scenes from Marvel's Antman on Blu-ray were rich in color and showed excellent image detail.
