QUOTE(Lon3Rang3r00 @ Apr 18 2017, 10:41 AM) the website shows RM1029 (as of now) Never knew you can add the 5 year services. Time to change my quotation! the 5 years Services is an addon of Rm66.78 ( It's worth it!) You can always chat with their customer service to ask them quote you discount price   THanks for the heads up |

My old TN monitor seems to produce good colours but less details. Current U2417H has natural colours and more details.

QUOTE(GYren @ Apr 10 2017, 03:24 PM) As per title, i'm mostly use the monitor for work and gaming balance. U2417 any time over the other 2.Work: Web Design, PS, Ai, Video Editing, coding, browsing. Game: CoD, Pro Evo Soccer, Forza Motorsport 6: Apex, etc. Need you guys advise on which one is fit the bill and value for money Thanks!  Price is based on Dell Malaysia site, i believe Lazada/11street can get better price. OPTION #1 - U2417H: RM 1029 Love the design, InfinityEdge thin bezel. OPTION #2 - S2418H: RM 979 Newer series, newer tech? how about HRD vs Ultrasharp? OPTION #3 - U2917W (Ultrawide): RM 1599 Any existing Ultrawide user here? Any comment? Never try Ultrawide before .U2417: 1) Factory calibrated (since you do design, you'll appreciate the price you pay and get a calibrated sRGB display) 2) 16:9 for your video editing 3) all the ports you need (except VGA) 4) highest price to performance ratio 5) the haze might be a turn off due to matte coating for some people but i find the haze treatment is just right. no big deal. S2418: 1) Glossy, a huge no no (although Dell says anti glare on its website, this is a glossy monitor) 2) non adjustable stand 3) no vesa mount 4) HDR on a monitor with peak brightness of 250cd/m, dont bother. 5) No display port U2917W 1) ultra wide does not appeal to me QUOTE(Lon3Rang3r00 @ Apr 10 2017, 09:36 PM) I'll share what i found, not sure if this help~ the reason why it's cheap both U2417 and S2418 is 6bit + FRC. Part of it --> the Stands~ and this~ i noticed it yesterday ~ S2418H uses 6Bit+FRC while Ultrasharp uses 8Bits panel its quite hard to get a true 8bit nowadays, but to be honest, FRC is so good nowadays you can hardly notice huge differences with true 8 bits panel QUOTE(Lon3Rang3r00 @ Apr 11 2017, 10:54 AM) in UK Dell website it doesn't show that it's anti-glare but Malaysia Dell website did stated the monitor come with " Anti-glare treatment of the front polarizer (3H)"  You can confirm with with Dell Customer representative = just give them a call or chat with them~QUOTE(GYren @ Apr 12 2017, 10:18 AM) Just talk to the Dell's CS, U2417H and S2418H bothe anti-glare, means non-reflective... Regardless of what they say, its still glossy to my eyes.But i guess i will stick to Ultrasharp, because my current 2007WFP served me for so long since 2008 still work well but just start having backlight bleeding, so looking for successor... |

QUOTE(GYren @ Apr 10 2017, 03:24 PM) As per title, i'm mostly use the monitor for work and gaming balance. I will only pick option one because S2418H is glossy surface, difficult to prevent reflection. As for Ultrawide, 29" is too small to get immersive feel. Ultrawide best size at least 34" and curve.Work: Web Design, PS, Ai, Video Editing, coding, browsing.
