> 3 dayJust a very few things turned me away from this beautifully crafted Dell U2723QE 27 16:9 4K UHD IPS Monitor with USB Type-C Docking. 1) I tested this monitor side by side the LG 24MD4KL-B 24-inch Ultrafine 4K UHD IPS LED Monitor with Built-in Speakers, 3840x2160. I really wanted a 27 monitor for work flow and productivity purposes but the 24 LG won, and heres why. I couldnt believe I gave up the 27 however, screen quality and MacBook integration along with Thunderbolt 3 played the biggest role in my decision. The Dell didnt look great side by side, although equipped with 1.07 Billion colors, 4K 3840x2160 screen resolution, along with so many connection ports (another reason I bought the Dell) I couldnt sleep at night. If the Dell was capable of 500cd/m of brightness, Mac integration and Thunderbolt, hands down I would have kept it. Like I mentioned, this is an excellent monitor but its not for everyone and I can say the same for the LG. If youre looking for a lot of connections, larger screen real estate and a decent brightness of 400 cd/m² Brightness, GO FOR IT!

> 3 dayI really like the monitor although all the features on it might be a bit of overkill.

Greater than one weekWe are so glad we got this monitor and could not get it directly from manufacturer but Amazon had it. Love the design and quality, the resolution is a major upgrade from our older monitor. We are not gamers so just using for financials, e-mail, photos, etc. We plugged both Apple and PC into it at times works great on either.

> 3 dayThis was the best Display I could find for my new Mac Mini, it has plenty of extra ports, had to add a small dell sound bar and a 1080p camera. Working great.

> 3 dayThis monitor was fast to deliver, fast to set up (literally about 10 minutes) and when I connected it to my Mac desktop (via the provided USB-C cord) it automatically saw it and worked perfectly. I changed some settings to allow the monitor to sit vertically but those took me probably 10 seconds to set up. Works great every day and had no hassle or fuss. Doesnt have the clarity my Mac does, but I do my design work on the Mac and the management and web coding work on the Dell monitor.

> 3 dayIve seen the reviews that complain about this monitor having a noticeable reflection from nearby lighting, or that the screen is not bright enough (400 nits). At first glance, there seems to be a nugget of an issue in all this. But the DELL U2723QE gives such full control over color space, brightness and contrast and whole range of different adjustment aspects that I could not disagree more with the reviews saying this monitor is not bright enough. Expecting that a display is not going reflect any light is not a valid point, IMHO. The overall flexibility in usage options, the jog dial for manual adjustments and the DELL software for PC management, the ease of applying updates, HDR10 w/preset options, DCI-P3 v2, USB-C daisy chaining, a built-in KVM, PBP and Pip, the list of features is almost too long to cover. What does matter in the long run is that if you know what you need and you are willing to pay for it, then go get this monitor. You will find the decision pays for itself.

> 3 dayI was making the switch from a 5k iMac to a laptop + external monitor setup. I bought this knowing that it would not be AS good as the 5K iMac screen, but I was hoping it would be a close enough substitute. Unfortunately it was not. I had heard people complain about non-native resolution scaling but didnt understand the issue until I bought this and saw it firsthand. Basically, to get your interface (app windows, text, etc) to appear at the same size youre used to on the 27 iMac, the resolution has to be scaled to a size that is not the native/optimal resolution for this (or any) 4K 27 display. The rounding math that occurs results in a slightly fuzzy overall appearance. Its not bad for day-to-day stuff, but its clearly a step down from a retina iMac if youre using this professionally for graphic design etc. Build quality is a mixed bag. The stand feels heavy and high-quality, but the panel is the typical flimsy junky plastic that wobbles and creaks as you use the buttons. The cord collector cutout in the base of the monitor looks nice…if you dont have any cords. But because it routes everything to/thru the front, you end up staring right at all your cables instead of hiding them, and thats just gross. Color quality is very close to the iMac, but brightness is noticeably dimmer. Brightness/backlight was uneven too, with a very obvious darkened gradient effect along the bottom inch of the screen. The worst part is that within 3hrs of use, the whole screen backlight started pulsating dramatically. So I had to send mine back. So if youre using this as a 2nd display or on a PC where the by the resolution scaling isn’t an issue, it does have a nice feature set and itll probably serve you fine as long is its not defective like mine. But if youre spoiled by iMac 5K and hoping for a similar experience, this aint it.

Greater than one weekPrimer member very likely have the same experience like me. Delivered! Set up! Returned! Reviewing now. No audio! After a long time google, someone do share that this $600 monitor does not have any speakers even you can see it in the output device list both in windows and MacOS. Only 30Hz in Macbook pro 2019. How come?
