At the time of writing, this is/has been the best LCD you can get in tems of the value for money you pay for it since its release over a year ago. You get high panel quality, contrast/brightness, excellent colour & gamut accuracy and reproduction, viewing angles, acceptable response time and sturdy built quality, superior compared to all those Samsung/BenQ/Acer/ViewSonic etc LCD displays you get out there at high street IT malls such as Low Yatt.
Sure, it follows Dell's traditional boxy square design, however, if you take display quality over an aesthetically sexy Samsung, this is for you. It may not have an HDMI port, however, it has 4 USB ports, which IMHO is more important for those needing to work with plenty of USB devices from their desktop PC/workstation, instead of merely using it to connect it to PS3. If that was the case, i'd recommend looking at conventional LCD TVs.
As this is an e-IPS LCD, it has excellent viewing angles and truer colour compared to all those (surprisingly more expensive) TN panels of the same size. As for the slightly slower 8ms response time inherent in this Dell UltraSharp panels, I have no issues and noticed no ghosting, even while gaming.
For those who complained about dead pixels, I represent the many who may have purchased this Dell U2311H, rarely posting when they are satisfied with their displays. It's typical only those with defective hardware will post and complain. I tested mine and it revealed zero dead pixels. The Dell sales rep, who was very helpful, assured me that if I were to test my LCD on 1-2 days of arrival, and to find any dead pixels, I would be able to return to Dell for a one-to-one exchange. My consignment even arrived 3 business days including from the first day of order.
So my advice to anyone who has doubts, I would highly recommend this LCD. Just make sure you test it upon receiving it. Actually, the dead pixel issue even exists in other brands and also displays in notebooks; however, it's up to the buyer to ensure testing upon receiving it or obtaining it from high street shops/malls, and exchange immediately upon defect detection
